[QUOTE="Hussar, post: 5336054, member: 22779"] Umm, let's look at history for a second. How many new settings did we get in the first two years of 1e? Greyhawk wasn't new, it was in OD&D. Dragonlance was a few years away. Oriental Adventures maybe? How many new settings did we get in the first two years of Basic/Expert? Mystara and...? How many new settings did we get in the first two years of 2e? Did we get any? Dragonlance and FR were both 1e settings first. How long was it before we started getting lots of new settings? How many new settings did we get in the first two years of 3e? Not counting 3pp of course, 'cos if you count those, there's a bajillion. But, out of WOTC? Did we get any? So, how can we really blame 4e for doing the exact same thing whoever's been helming D&D has done for the past 30 years? It takes some time to take the flagship settings into the new edition. So, 4e, we've updated Eberron, FR, and done one Retread setting. Isn't Nentir Vale the next setting due out? So, three years before an orgininal setting. Seems pretty par for the course. [/QUOTE]
