Glad I caught this in time to get the limited $70 level in time before it filled.

I mean. There was lore to be scraped but it was a deep nitpicking to pull it out. If you’re not that kinda person who gets enjoyment from that, don’t. If you like to read through fiction for worldbuilding and not characters and plot, you might get something of an appreciation for early...

I bought all of them only to scrape for Greyhawk lore and geography. They were otherwise 😑.

Rexfelis, the Cat Lord!

That’s something like I was assuming, but I think the Greyhawk run during the Dragon/Dungeon line from Paizo was a fine success, not a complete failure. Which is why I think Ruin Explorer’s hyperbole needed more defining.

I know it’s twist on the line from Mean Girls about Fletch, which has become a meme, used over and over. Which is why I asked what you mean by it. You did evasively drop something about cats falling off a fence. You kept dodging what you meant by repeated complete failures. I just wanted to...

Which has irony because you seem to be connecting outcomes through nostalgia-colored glasses. “… make Greyhawk happen” means what? Even sustained publishing you said was partial failure.

I however do not believe that there is a contest to win the setting championship and be The One. I believe the D&D hobby can support multiple settings, even multiple WotC-published settings. (Indeed it current is). And my stance is that a setting not attaining eternal publishing is not a...

This to me is setting partisan cheerleader stuff. That there can be only one winner and the rest get to be trolled as losers for trying, since they’re complete repeated failures.

I know you tacked a “lol”, but what do we know about WotC‘s goals for each Greyhawk line (now and before) that you measure each run such that each come out as repeated complete failures? Is there a public benchmark? Like a fantasy setting playoff where fans swagger and taunt opposing settings...

I would look forward to a steampunk fantasy spin off from 5e. I’d be eager for their take on a sword and planet/space fantasy spin.

Rastipedes just get no love…

You could argue that Hollow World and much more so Red Steel/Savage Coast are separate. In fact I bought Red Steel not knowing it was part of Mystara’s Known World at the time I bought it. The tie in to Mystara in the original box was left nebulous.

That’s a lotta backers!!

I would LOVE to see Red Steel reskinned to take place in its own ‘crystal sphere’, seems pretty easy to make happen too! Or exist in its own segment of an asteroid belt in the Astromundi Cluster?

Love the comprehensiveness.

I think you might be on to something about how Spelljammer was being crammed on to settings in active production (except Known World/Mystara). The [Blank]space books were, and still are, a sore spot for Krynn and Oerth fans. Excluding the low quality of those accessories, I don’t think the...

Love the variant Spelljamming methods and hated the idea of the Arcane having a monopoly. Such as the idea of the Thoric Tradesmen from Astromundi, if they could at least not look like connected ice fishing houses.

I am paying for the additions tho. If those aren’t in the normal version, that’s like saying people who use miniatures are wasting money when they could use cardboard tokens or just random dice as stand ins.

Are you sure the ”normal” version is identical?
