Fair enough. Those adventures are non-standard in that regard.I think he might be talking about Dragon Heist. Or Storm King's Thunder. In either module, you only use a tiny slice of the book in the actual play of the adventure.

I don't think Elfcrusher means to criticize a sandbox for being... well, a sandbox.Depending on how you run Ravenloft, a lot of that module would get left on the cutting room floor for a lot of groups as well.

If 2 out of 8 modules doesn't fit your playing style or meet your expectations, it's entirely reasonable to ask you to look at the other 75% of material offered.
What really would be unreasonable would be to demand that no module ever experiments with the "parallel tracks" writing structure.
Well, there's only what, 8 AP's, so, I'm not sure that there really is a standard. Depending on how you run Ravenloft, a lot of that module would get left on the cutting room floor for a lot of groups as well. Now, we're creeping up on around a third of the modules that WotC's pumped out for 5e fitting the "25% used" description. It's not a totally unreasonable criticism.
That I still hate that bloody compass rose on the Saltmarsh map, on the other hand, is a totally unreasonable criticism and I don't care.![]()
I hate sandboxes.
They recommend placing Saltmarsh in Q'barra and involving House Phiarlan with the smugglers.Are there any suggestions for using the book in Eberron?
