[QUOTE="Brewhammer, post: 3773329, member: 55215"] FR is by far my most favorite D&D world to play in. Bar none, but with Dragonlance close to it. Greyhawk's fine too but FR's always been the one I keep coming back to. But all good things come to an end, or "jump the shark," or at least provide a jumping off point before things get bad. Nothing lasts forever, no matter how great it is. FR's had a fantastic twenty years behind it, but novels-wise this looks like it could be the end of the line for me and FR. The epic storylines and epic characters never bothered me. They made for great reading. I never felt that just because the novel characters were doing these things and having these sorts of adventures that it somehow meant my characters or those of my fellow players couldn't enjoy that same level, too. But if this is all that it appears to be at this point - a giant reset button - then I'll play FR in settings where this 'Spellplague' reset button crap didn't happen, and stay in 3.5 doing it. I'll always have the pre-'Spellplague' stories. WotC can't ever take that away from me :cool: [/QUOTE]
