[QUOTE="Urriak Uruk, post: 7858128, member: 7015558"] I'll rephrase my thoughts on FR and it's future content because I think my opinions have been spread like butter over too many comments. If you are a Forgotten Realms fan, you should be extremely happy with the pattern of FR coverage for 5e, especially if that pattern holds. Not only have you gotten a decent setting book for FR's core and most popular region, the Sword Coast, but several products released have detailed regions even further with incredible details. Tyranny of Dragons covers the Sword Coast, but also a brief visit to Thay (as does a remake of Dead in Thay). Out of the Abyss is a very good guide to FR's Underdark beneath the Sword Coast. Dragon Heist includes a detailed gazetteer to Waterdeep, as does Descent into Avernus for Baldur's Gate. Dungeon of the Mad Mage is an entire book devoted to FR's most famous and largest dungeon, Undermountain. And of course, Tomb of Annihilation is an incredible guide to the jungles of Chult. Every original big adventure book for 5e is within the Forgotten Realms, and only Descent in Avernus moves out of it (although Elturel falling into Baator certainly makes that section very FR-focused as well). It is very probable that all future original adventure books will as well, and there have been rumors pointing to regions like Lantan, Kara-Tur, Maztica and Al-Qadim that may get a central role. If you're an FR fan and you feel as if you're somehow owed another setting book, I think you're being entirely unreasonable, as FR has gotten a starring role in this edition. I think it's entirely fair for future setting books to remain as introductions to alternative settings. [/QUOTE]
