The nerds gotta rage.Kind of funny...but not...how the words "considered by many to be the best campaign book ever published" resulted in a near-total thread derailment.

The Tomb of Annihilation is great. But a dedicated campaign setting it is not. The culture and land of Chult could be more detailed.Yeah, and Tomb of Annihilation came out in 2017 (not looking at the Adventure books as Setting books is a category error).
The exact magnitude of the book’s greatness is irrelevant to the larger point of the thread. That’s why you’re coming across as needlessly combative.You made an unreasonable and ridiculous statement. I disagreed to an extent.
Yet you use emotive language and forbid questioning your statement. I am not sure why you are so intent in expressing nerdrage at a reasonable disagreement to your hyperbole.
Good to know that any dissenting opinions are not warranted. Mindless agreement is what we want.The exact magnitude of the book’s greatness is irrelevant to the larger point of the thread. That’s why you’re coming across as needlessly combative.
It’s certainly a distinction with a difference for me, as I’ll buy setting books but not adventures.Yeah, and Tomb of Annihilation came out in 2017 (not looking at the Adventure books as Setting books is a category error).

If we want to get technical Out of the Abyss came out in 2015. And a dedicated campaign setting of the Underdark that is not.

The point of the thread wasn’t the 3e book, which seems to also be the point you’re missing. The objection is to you quibbling over minutiae, not your opinion.Good to know that any dissenting opinions are not warranted. Mindless agreement is what we want.
That’s fine. I just prefer the setting books where only a small fraction of the page count is a module I’m not going to run, as opposed to the setting books where a large fraction of the page count is a module I’m not going to run.Might make a difference for personal purchase reasons, bit the Adventure books are focused Setting books and collections of smaller modules with a thin veneer thing it all together.
