What's your favourite D&D setting of all time?

[Chris Knapp]

Greyhawk got me hooked back in the day, and Dragonlance was my goto setting as soon as it came out and to this day(for RPG only, not a fan of the novels.)
I didn't pick a 3rd. No other settings captured my imagination like those 2 did.

Scarred Lands and Midnight should be on that list.

Two glaring omissions IMHO.

In no specific order for me:

Planescape
Golarion
Ravenloft
Dark Sun
Pre-4e FR

No specific order, eh? So there's actually a chance that Planescape isn't your favourite setting?

 

[gweinel]

mmm... with that order:
Planescape
Birthright
Mystara

Golarion is up there with PS tied for #1 in my book. I got to help create large chunks of its cosmology and what outsiders dwelled therein as a freelancer, while Planescape was already a developed product line by the time I even started to play D&D, let along think I could write stuff for it. I've only been able to contribute in tiny bits here and there for PS (though I've adored each and ever bit of it).

Don't make me have to pick one favorite.

Easily Dark Sun for my favourite.

Then Dragonlance (although admittedly I've never played a game set in it before, just read (most) of the novels), and finally, since it's a three option poll, Golarion.

There are other settings I probably would have put instead/like more, but I don't really feel experienced enough with them to call them my favourite.

Golarion was made for the very first issue of the monthly Pathfinder Adventure Path materials that Paizo made, starting in late (I think August) 2007, which was for 3.5. However, this was after they had lost the license to produce official D&D materials (and the magazines had been allowed to fold) and so was not officially D&D.

I concur with Alzrius. There have been no D&D branded products released for Golarian, even under licence. There have been Golarian products compatible with the 3.5 rules released under the OGL, and of course Golarian products for the Pathfinder RPG. But strictly speaking, Golarian has never been a Dungeons & Dragons setting.

 

[Bedrockgames]

It is tough to choose but for me:

Ravenloft
Dark Sun
Birthright

 

[juboke]

The World of Greyhawk.
