Message: <blockquote data-quote="Lord Mhoram" data-source="post: 6130999" data-attributes="member: 4789">I tended to dislike the setting and it's lore. I disliked the factions immensely - so much so that I never used anything from the setting. I disliked the Lady of Pain and Sigil in general - and the overall tone was completely the opposite of what I enjoy. Add to the fact that I had been running an 1st ed AD&D game well into the 2nd edition, and Planescape used as assumptions some things that were the complete opposite of my assumptions (both still within what was given in 1st ed, but contradictory) that I found it completely unusable. And the Cant was annoying to read.So it may have been a good setting as written, for my tone and approach it is the worst D&D setting I've ever read. Only Ravenloft (the setting, not the module) or Dark Sun come close.So yeah if they jettison a lot of that for Next, I wouldn't care. If they kept in some stuff but left off the tone I disliked I'd be cool with it - I liked what 4E did with it - getting rid of the factions and such. But please leave out Tanarri and whatever the other made up word was - just call them demons and devils. The whole other name (and leaving them out of 2nd edition) was to appease "D&D are devil worshipers" anyway*. No need to keep any of that around.* as I understand anyone - trying to shy away from controversy.</blockquote>
