[QUOTE="Paul Farquhar, post: 7951506, member: 6906155"] SCAG actually goes into [I]more[/I] depth than the 3rd edition FR book, which went into more depth than the 2nd edition book. But the most detailed 5e FR book published by WotC is Tomb of Annihilation. And I do think adventures are the best way to do - say - Cormyr, rather than trying to cram everything into a single volume. And that brings us back to the core of the thread - why is Wildemont so good (that no one can think of anything to complain about) when SCAG was so bad? I would put it down to the author's enthusiasm for the setting. Current WotC staff aren't really interested in FR, so even if they did write a big book it wouldn't be very good. A [I]good[/I] FR book needs to be written by someone with a real passion for the setting. Like you. [/QUOTE]
