@Deadstroke99 Erm, I'm pretty sure it was mentioned somewhere that the author DID base the entire thing after being rekt during a D&D session. However, since the author wasn't invested enough to invent an original character design they decided to use already existing fantasy characters as a basis for the illustrations. Dragon's Crown was one of them (among others like the Fate Series, Berserk, etc.) and especially on the manga it was made apparent just like I mentioned. It was no coincidence. There's pretty much no problem IMO if they based designs like that seeing as they look great to me and it's a pretty common thing. Funny enough, the author really got the thing with Dragon's Crown Fighter referenced by Goblin Slayer seeing as in that game, Fighter has this unique feature where he tends to drop his weapon so you have to pick it up (or another weapon on the ground) while retaining his shield which GS also often does. It's even more funny how GS's running figure looks closely like Fighter running. It's a nice touch I enjoy in this series.
