Figured I would take this topic to another thread.
It's no secret that the 4th edition Forgotten Realms alientated a "lot" of fans with the Spellplague and the very limited amount of books and detail we got when one of the things that actually make FR unique and inviting is it's deep history and abundent detail.
Well there are of course some people who liked the sparse content but there were more who wanted the vast detail that we've craved for years.
I don't understand why it's so difficult for people to just ignore the lore and use what they want. Why can't I have a thick FR guide with loads of the iconic detail that it's known for? I mean it's a win win for everyone and not just the sparse side.
Hopefully there will be a thick tome or two coming out that will allow those of us who like that much content, to dive in and drink up our fill. I don't need to pay WoTc for permission to buy a sparse book and create my own content.
