But I'll assume you are just talking about published settigsBest WotC PropertyPlanescape. I'll be frank - I hated the art until rk post showed up, and I wasn't too fond of putting the cant in GM only text. But the setting itself is awesome. Most settings make me feel crowed in. But the Planescape setting, OTOH, can take you anywhere... to the oddest places you can imagine. Its the richest fantasy experience out there IMO. The source material was also great, and provides a menagarie of interesting adventure ideas and makes more of the alignment rich D&D setting than "good guys vs. bad guys."On top of that, Dead Gods and Tales of the Infinite Staircase are two of the best adventures out there.I'm not going to use the word worst. Doubtless the worst setting died in obscurity.However:Most Disappointing SettingForgotten Realms. Forgotten Realms is like a prodigal son. So full of promise, but yet you are so disappointed with the things that he has done.FR has some great fantasy ideas, like Dracoliches, Undermountain, and so forth.But first, TSR started tacking every possible thing onto the setting until it started to lose its own identity as well as contaminate whatever was tacked on. This trend started with Kara Tur and the nonhuman deities. Now, you can't even find any nonhuman deities other than the main ones in the core setting - by canon, they don't exist. But they exist in the realms. <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f644.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":rolleyes:" title="Roll eyes    :rolleyes:"  data-smilie="11"data-shortname=":rolleyes:" />Finally, Edminster is a mary sue character and needs to go.Most Aggravating SettingGreyhawk. Not for the setting itself, which is a nice gritty fantasy setting which was the very basis of many D&D tropes.Rather, for all the purists. I don't think I could run a game in GH and dare speak of it, lest the purity brigade analyze me for compliance with canon.I think I'll duck trying to categorize a best d20 setting. For best SF setting, I'll plug Traveller.</blockquote>
