[QUOTE="JoeGKushner, post: 5053200, member: 1129"] I hope that next year WoTC does a brand new setting based firmly around their whole points of light thing using the core gods from the PHB/DMG, using all the locations from the various adventurers, etc... and then SUPPORTS IT. One of the reasons I'm still buying Paizo books is that in addition to having some great backgrounds and details that are fairly useful with any D&D setting, such as their goblins, ogres, etc..., the books are links in a chain of stories about the setting. This whole fire and forget thing with limited print release adventurers isn't to my taste at all. Heck, I still pull down Pathfinder 1 just to read the little side bars on the goblins which motivates me to bust out the Classics Revisited. That's just my take on it though. These fire and forget models might be good for getting the material out there, but at the pace their going, it'll be 6th ed before they cover them all. Mystra, Red Steel, Hollow Earth Spelljammer, Planescape Al-Qadim, Kara-Tur Jakandor Greyhawk Birthright Dragonlance Ravenloft/Masque of the Red Death And I'm sure I'm missing some. Even if we take out the duplicates, and say, lump Al-Qadim and Kara-Tur with Forgotten Realms, and combine Red Steel, Hollow Earth and Mystara, that's still like seven campaign settings and at one a year? Yeah, 6th ed by the time they get around to Birthright. [/QUOTE]
