[QUOTE="Dragonhelm, post: 3813714, member: 3867"] Various other setting thoughts… [b]Al-Qadim[/b] – Great feel to it. I would have loved to have played it right after Aladdin came out. [b]Dark Sun[/b] – This is a very different type of D&D game! Love the races and the fact that psionics are involved. [b]Dragonstar[/b] – Never played it, but it looks so cool! Fantasy sci-fi rocks. [b]Eberron[/b] – I’m not entirely certain about the pulp fantasy feel, but props for this being different. Love the races, particularly the warforged. It has psionics, and it isn’t even a world like Dark Sun. I haven’t ruled out Eberron by any means. I’d like to play it more to get a better feel for it. [b]Greyhawk[/b] – I liked some of the personalities, but overall the setting was so generic. I tended to use what Greyhawk modules I had in the Realms. Had I played the old modules, then maybe I would have felt differently. [b]Planescape[/b] – I never liked the art nor the slang. I can’t stand the term “berk.” I expected it to be more like [i]Manual of the Planes[/i] with a central setting, but they renamed the planes and it became something different. I just never got into it. [b]Spelljammer[/b] – I think this setting is so much fun. Fantasy space travel is cool. I’d probably tweak the cosmology a bit, but I’d definitely play this again. [b]Star Wars[/b] – Fantastic movies, great games. ‘Nuff said! [/QUOTE]
