[QUOTE="Reynard, post: 9558336, member: 467"] One thing that legitimately surprised me about the 2024 DMG was the chapter on the Planes. It spends nearly 40 pages on the Planes -- a "setting" traditionally reserved for high level play that is also the part of the D&D "multiverse" most likely to be modified or ignored in D&D's own setting (Eberron, Dragonlance). By contrast, they spend less than 30 pages on Greyhawk and a whopping 3 pages on Dungeons. the discussion of all the myriad worlds of D&D is a single chart. Why do you think they decided to invest so many pages in the Planes? Does it signal a near term focus on the Planes for adventures and supplements? Will we be seeing more Planescape products or a big planar adventure? Is that something you would like to see? For that matter, are you happy with the large investment of pages on the Planes in the 2024 DMG? While I don't mind planar information being present in the DMG, or even taking up a decent chunk of real estate, I am less enthused at how little space was given to dungeons and dungeon adventures (and sandbox campaigns, as i mentioned in another thread). I don't think planar adventures are common, and I think it is effectively wasted space for a lot of groups. But what are your thought? [/QUOTE]
