Prior to VRGtR, did any of the things you mentioned invalidate pre-existing lore for that setting? Did history not happen? Just in 4e, and even there it doesn't change the actual domains of the setting, just where they decided to drop them.VRGtR, however, changed the practical nature of the setting in a way that no other supplement had. It became a different place.Another example: does presenting the Blood War in 2e invalidate anything about demons and devils in 1e? Did history not happen? Not that I can see.Can't speak to Eberron (never got into it), but my understanding is that the history of the setting remained frozen at the same spot from 3e to now, and none of the setting details in the world changed, rather more detail has been added over the years.</blockquote>
