Not saying that they are not way cool or that you could not play in them forever, only that they only appeal to ppl whose cup of tea it is. From a marketing / industry point of view, the target audience will thus be very limited in scope for these worlds (especially Ravenloft, as it takes a darn good DM to really get the mood going, and special players who like to play in such an atmosphere).Thus the remark was meant in the light of whether a setting has the broad scope to replace a world like Greyhawk or Forgotten Realms, where it is much easier to place any sort of campaign.At first glance, Eberron seems limited as well. The whole 'fantasy noir' theme is also a look/feel that will only appeal to a certain amount of players out there. When reading the whole ECS tho, you quickly note that this is by no means a must. There are plenty places in Eberron where simple hack'n'slash roleplaying (does such a thing exist?? <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f609.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=";)" title="Wink    ;)"  data-smilie="2"data-shortname=";)" />) fits in. It looks as though Eberron will be able to accommodate a broad spectrum of types of play, and is thus not limited to a small scope of players.Hope that helps clear up my remarks and use of the word limited in reference to the various campaign settings</blockquote>
