If Kingdoms of Kalamar deals with the rituals of the vice-lord's clerics or River of Blood deals with the perverted religious rituals of Xvarts, those are a part of a larger world and a bigger story. On the other hand, if the hype is to be believed, BOVD is supposed to be exclusively about how to have vile and disgusting campaigns and has been marketed in such a way that one might expect the antagonists from River of Blood to be the protagonists in a campaign based upon the BOVD.Well, that and BOVD, is a much bigger product with much more hype and publicity all of which specifically centers upon its supposed "maturity". The same is not true of the other materials.</blockquote>
