[QUOTE="Andor, post: 5877947, member: 1879"] 2e had British, gun toting, anthropomophic hippopotami, impotent half-dwarf gladiators and philisophically murderous interplanar mutts mangling 17th century london slang. Few GMs allowed them to be in the same party. In 2e you tended to see better seperation between different camapign worlds, in spite of the fact that both Spelljammer and Planescape were explict methods for hopping between campaign worlds. In 3e there was a tendancy for a lot of feat and prestige classes to be put into setting books along with guide lines for how to fit them into other worlds/games. This resulted in blurring and a sense of entitlement amoung players that of course Class X could be used in Ravenloft no matter how ill fitting. From WotCs perspective of course it makes perfect sense, since it allows them to derive greater sales from what might otherwise be niche books. How they will handle portioning out fluff/crunch in 5e, I do not know. [/QUOTE]
