Again, I have to say that there isn't really a "best" setting that will be best in all situations. After all, an intrigue, mystery based campaign isn't really what, say, Dark Sun is meant for. Not that you can't do it, but, it's not really what Dark Sun is about. If you're doing a sort of...

Yeah, I do think that it will really matter on what kind of experience you are looking for. Bog standard faux Europe D&D? Sword Coast. Something more specific? That's going to need more information.

Humans have been the bad guys more than a few times in Whoniverse.

I rather enjoyed that. Was it a war? Meh, don't care. I'm not about to get terribly fussy about titles. Acting and story were both pretty good. Yeah, there's some plot holes- not checking the ambassador's globe/bomb, not watching Barclay more in the hotel. I mean, seriously, one guard at...

Space is really the issue. There's just only so much page count. I remember back when Paizo was first doing their AP's in Dungeon and every month they'd put out a pdf of the maps. A web-enhancement map pack would be absolutely perfect for a lot of the AP's. Then again, for the AP's, there's...

Again, you have to remember though, for some of us, maps are meant to be played on. They are not meant solely for the DM. Which means locations of NPC starting points (not carved in stone, but, just the likely spots) is really useful. I mean, good grief, most room descriptions include the...

@Lanefan, I like what you have to say and would like to subscribe to your newsletter. :D A couple of quibbles though. What's wrong with isometric? Again, I play on VTT, so, isometric maps are a ton of fun when done right. Really builds the scene. Which, thinking about it, does play into...

Heh. Actually, and don't hate me, but, I used Gemini to make a VTT token of a halfling monk. The AI generated image gave the halfling six toes on one foot. So, that became his name.

Same boat. The only 2024 character I've gotten to play was in a short lived campaign where I got to play a halfling monk named Jammy Sixtoes. I really liked him.

HOLY CRAP. You've played over 20 characters in about a year? I'm not sure if I've actually played 20 characters ever.
