Says multiverse is the true setting of 5e, which is where the Vecna adventure is set.

"Also, we want you to feel tempted to buy all these different setting books."

I wonder if they're going to bring back the dorky cultists with hands for heads from 2E.

"The core setting for 5e is the multiverse." Not sure how I feel about that. First thoughts is that Wizards wants me to buy more books to get to play this super adventure. I do not want to play most of the worlds, so I hope that there are things I can skip or brush over and control if I buy this adventure. I like that Vecna is the core villain even if not traditionally FR but Greyhawk.

I have a feeling that all the info you need to play will be in the adventure, but each world will have a "If you're interested in learning more about this world..." statement to guide people on what to buy if they do want learn more.

How dare you mock the Hands of Vecna! Draw thy sword... no... no... not with your head...

"The core setting is the multiverse" is a great way to tell me I get to save a bunch of money for the next few years, since my campaign world is cut off from the multiverse and my players are a long way from learning that's true, to say nothing of altering the status quo.

To be fair, the announced that years ago, like in the first year or two of the launch of 5e IIRC

So, which worlds will be visited in the adventure? I'm guessing that Greyhawk, FR, and some of the Planes are shoe-ins. Will there be other D&D settings? Some new, entirely different worlds?

Ravenloft is a potential candidate, since Vecna once was darklord of a domain there (is Kas still stuck in Ravenloft?).
