You had to go to the asylum to figure out what was going on with the serial killer. It was a major clue in the second module.The first module definitely tied into the story. That is why you revisit the same hidden temple in module five. The finding of the underground temple in the first module was of vital importance. The clues in the goblin lair seemed unrelated at first, but were subtle clues to be recalled later on. I consider it similar to a writer having antagonist deal with a seemingly unrelated problem that eventually ties into the plot later. The first module set the plate for the rest of it. There were key parts of it that tied in like the runewell and the sihedron amulet that played parts later on. I agree.The original Temple of Elemental Evil was huge fun as well. I'm still hoping at some point they take some of their classic modules and update them for 5E without changing much at all. D&D has a ton of classic modules that if updated would sell. I never understood why WotC didn't hire a guy whose sole job was to update modules to 5E (or whatever new edition) for re-release. I'd love to run Against the Giants or Lost Caverns of Tsojcanth for 5E. I'd pay for updated versions of classic modules.</blockquote>
