You can re-purpose them, sure. I'm just saying its pretty impossible to write an adventure without SOME kind of setting. Just layouts and monsters without storyhooks aren't engaging.Well, the setting is extremely light in the adventures: easy enough to repurpose for Generica, Land of D&D. The old 1E & BECMI modules had no setting, or just the lightest of assumed setting that could be repurposed...as with 5E adventures.
