There are so many plot threads and hooks, you won't be able to get touch everything in a single campaign. Lots of different factions and NPCs to work for or against. Complete stats for just a number of the most important or common adversaries, with plenty of room to throw in or create your own individual pieces. Many areas to explore inside the city, outside for scores of miles, and even the Shadowfell side of Neverwinter - Evernight. And there is actually very little that is ready to play. No adventures or maps, or even encounters. More like a toolbox with ready-made parts for a DM to arrange. I'm really surprised this one hasn't already been mentioned. Even if someone doesn't like 4e or Forgotten Realms (or specifically FR in 4e), it is a really good example of what a sandbox and a campaign book can be.</blockquote>
