I was reading through my copy of Martial Power the other day, and I was noticing that almost all of the fighter paragon paths have detailed introductions that cement them firmly in 4th edition's default setting. I haven't gotten to the paragon paths past the fighter chapter, but all of the ones I've seen so far have talked about the history of the various kingdoms and empires and so forth and how the paths fit in with them. While I think it's kind of cool to have stuff in your game fit in directly with lore, I personally would like it to be more generic--I don't like having various kingdoms and even people named in my class descriptions.
That's just personal opinion, of course.
But I was wondering how many people actually use the gods, setting and history that is mentioned in the books. I don't really use any of it. I've used a couple gods as inspiration for some minor deities, but that's about as far as I go. For me, world building is one of the most rewarding parts of roleplaying games.
