D&D 5E Settings for D&D Next?

[VGmaster9]

What settings do you wanna see for D&D Next? I wanna see FR, Eberron, Dark Sun, Ravenloft, Planescape, Spelljammer, Oriental Adventures, expanded Nentir Vale, and a completely new different setting.

None. WOTC has shown me they do not really do a good job with classic settings (since before 3e), and Eberron does not interest me other than Xendrik. Nentir Vale started off cool, and once they started getting more detailed it was more blah.

I guess it is the constraints of trying to be all things to all people, as there is no lack of quality setting material outside WOTC.

I would like to see a gritty medieval fantasy setting. Maybe not 'low-magic' as-in no wizards, but a lot less magic in the world than any current setting.

As long as it's not FR again.... to be fair, I don't use settings so I can hardly complain. I'd buy Dragonlance, though, if only just to read. And Ravenloft. I can't see myself ever buying FR again.

1. Greyhawk
2. Mystara
3. FR

Dragonlance. That is all.

Something NEW! I know that's last on the list for this edition, but man I would have liked having three or four brand new settings out the gate to help everyone buy in creatively and sort of reset the field in terms of bias and expectation. The Magic team does such a great job worldbuilding, too.

why not all of the old ones, starting with the most popular and working down to the least popular??

after that they can start making new ones

did forgotten realms get it that bad?

I don't really understand what that sentence means, but FR isn't really my taste plus I have it a few times over. I'm in a minority, though - it's very, very popular. I just don't personally feel the need to buy it yet again.

That's FR again then.
