[QUOTE="ProfessorCirno, post: 4350431, member: 65637"] I very much perfer Eberron over the Realms in 3e. 4e? I dunno. I don't know how 4e will do Eberron since Eberron, to me, is based on "I SWING ON THE CHANDELIER PAST THE WARFORGED SWASHBUCKLER AND KICK THE CAT-PERSON IN THE HEAD BEFORE HE CAN ATTACK THE LITTLE GIRL POPE!" Doesn't seem to fit "points of light in a sea of daarrrrrrkneeeeeeesssss" too well. As for Forgotten Realms...look, I never got that into the Realms. I found the Sword Coast to be the most mind numbingly boring thing imaginable. This reset, on the other hand, seems to change [I]everything that needed to stay the same[/I] and got rid of the stuff that actually sucked. All the strange and exotic locals? Oh, they're gone. But hey, the Sword Coast is just the same as it always has been! Ugh. And what's this complete BS about [B]Tyr killing Helm[/B]? Who the hell OK'd that one? I assume that's why Lathander, the [B]second most worshiped god in the entire world[/B], decided to become some long since dead sun god of some long since dead empire. It was because [I]his brain couldn't comprehend WTF was going on in the writers' heads[/I]. So yeah, the Rising Sun heresy - you know, the one that his ENTIRE CONGREGATION DENIED - is true. Yeah. And funny, on that Lathander note, he's going from Neutral Good - the very avatar of it, at that - to Lawful Neutral. [I]Which no longer exists[/I]. Meanwhile, Ao has presumable been retconned out of existence, and Mystra dies [I]again[/I]. This is, what, the [I]third time[/I] the goddess of magic has kicked the bucket? I say Ao has been retconned, as he seems perfectly content [I]not to do anything[/I] while his entire pantheon rips each other apart for seemingly no reason. [/QUOTE]
