It's fine to not want the dark tone, classic d&d heroic fantasy is much more of a feel-good vibe and there's nothing wrong with liking that. There are a lot of Forged in the Dark games (i.e. Blades hacks) with different themes, I imagine a load are much less dark!

I guess it's a general issue with some clients presenting thumbnails for websites the same way they'd present image posts
Because it's an RPG?
Aren't incubi and succubi the same creatures that just change their form to seduce the desired target?
High expectations are considered treason, please consider a more reasonable expectation before attempting Paranoia
I've also seen it captioned as "at the end of every marvel movie"
That's the true deception
I don't really know much about art but aren't dwarves more like brutalism?
The important thing when DMing is to never let the players know if there was fudging going on. Fudge in secret if you need to, but the moment the players know there are no consequences then there's suddenly no reward.
Following "the law" doesn't make you lawful. Robin Hood is clearly very lawful good, he has a strict moral code he follows, and that happens to involve breaking laws he considers evil. If you follow laws to get your way but don't really care about the spirit of them then I think that makes you pretty chaotic.
Yeah I would think removing stress and trauma would fundamentally change the game into something else, but you could still reskin them to change the tone. For example stress could be your mana, and traumas could be your soul ascending, or something like that in a heroic fantasy setting; the mechanics are still the same but it doesn't have the same dark vibe.
