[QUOTE="Outlaw, post: 636646, member: 5907"] The reason I've pledged my allegience to Kingdoms of Kalamar is because it's the only setting that's outdone my homebrew. I was very proud of that thing and I, from time to time, used other published campaigns to add a bit of flavor. But when I got Kalamar, all the things that I felt were wrong but couldn't figure out how to fix had been fixed. The setting, to me, is phenomenal. I played Forgotten Realms all through 2e adn near the end became disappointed. So disappointed in fact that I didn't look at any other settings until 3e (with the exception of birthright which had a good premise, but used too many things I didn't like). As a player in the Realms, I'd talk after sessions with the DM telling me all the lofty aspirations I had for my character. "I want to do this, I want to do that!" He'd always reply, "Too late, so and so already did that." Fame and great deeds had already been achieved in every facet and nothing I tried to accomplish was ever original or able to surpass someone like Elminster (how can you outdo someone who is shagging a god?). That broke my spirit on that world and 3e FR is absolutely revolting. [/QUOTE]
