This is where I am. Instead of buying D&D 5e after they said alignment and monsters was problematic I bought just about all the books for traveller, castles and crusades, wfrp, and even Fantasy Age. They made it clear they don't like my game aesthetic so I went elsewhere because WOTC have...

That is world building.

I had the second printing of the Original Box as well. Most of the AD&D Letter series were Greyhawk, so if you had a map and that book you could do it. But I lost mine ages ago. I only have the Dragon Lance one now.

You're welcome too reject it . A Mos Eisley pub in Greyhawk city just wouldn't seem very Greyhawk to me. I limit races to pretty much 3rd edition Forgotten Realms Campaign guide. Even in 5e I don't allow races outside the Players handbook in my own campaigns but I pretty much Run 3rd edition...

I was really into FOrgotten Realms after I played in Greyhawk for a while. I never really read anything beyond the AD&D Hardcover and original campaign set. But I always wanted to develop a campaign in 3rd edition Greyhawk. Reading Forgotten Realms material really kept me busy for everything...

Somewhere else we agree!

On that we agree! Inherently evil monsters and game constructs are not a racist belief. Next your going to tell me D&D Is Satanic.

The kids coming up in High School even out of an environment with stimulus are easily bored especially after Covid. The difference is stark and quantifiable.

Not at all. Not even close. Creationism Makes them evil. Not natural selection. There is nothing racist about inherently evil monsters. It's important to pay attention to the context.

That's pretty much my point. There was never that much lore for Greyhawk, it was pretty bareboned. But I am not finding a lot of Medieval Motif on the Fan art that has been made. It seems that the new direction is going more towards a kind of modern environment. I don't think Greyhawk is a...

People are still on about this nonsense the 1st edition rules were racist? There's no evidence for that. Sexist. OK they limited Strength ability.

The Map will be fine at least

According to the Troll Lord guys Gary wanted to keep that intent hence his development and their Kickstarter (Based on the work he was doing with them but they had to stop publishing once he passed.) I don't see the point in making something in Name only. This would not be Greyhawk, it would...

Greyhawk is very Human centric and also very much based on Medieval Fantasy. I don't think this is going to fly well with the current player base that prefers Tieflings, Tortles, and Top hats. I don't think Greyhawk could survive the new player base and still keep the flavor people want from...

If somebody actually pays for this certification then theyre too gullible to actually be of use.

The Production Value of Traveller is outstanding.

I didn't actually say 5e made anything worse. I said it didn't go far enough in just picking it up. Acerak is not just another lich though. His campaign was world ending and really felt like a shoe horn. Marvel has lots of heroes now lets bring Superman to the Marvel Universe. The...

I don't know Eberron. I saw the modern urban elements and Didn't bother with it. To me the mage tech precluded any sort of Medieval inspired fantasy. You can place anything in it but if you wanted to do 13th Warrior Inspired dark ages fantasy it seems a bit hard. But I don't know Eberron.

How does an actual saint make it gonzo. That's like saying Zeus as a god makes it gonzo. Murlynd you'd know about from Dragon Magazine or a Spoon. Dungeonland was a portal but as a module it was not that weird. D&D Monsters replacing wonderland casts. Barrier Peaks was absolutely the Dying...

It didn't have to be curated due to the time. It was the default throughout the books. Most of the Alpha series modules were set there. It was the setting for AD&D. I would argue the gonzo races that 5e allows now, with Furries, Ninja Turtles, and everything else is not the tone intended for...
