[QUOTE="Khairn, post: 3989471, member: 20153"] To paraphrase the problem, it almost sounds like ... I want to play the FR and its NPC's, as the original creators designed it, not my personal version of them, so therefore all the material needed is difficult to find and daunting to read .... But in the new FR, I won't have all that daunting material to read. But by not having all that material you'll also be forced to create your version of the setting & NPC's your playing ... which is what you could have done with the current FR in the first place but didn't do because you wanted to use the creator's version of the setting... And with each new FR book released, the new creators will fill in more and more of the setting and you'll either have to change what you've already created, or decide to exclude particular books. And this is why I always have difficulty understanding how and why 4E FR will be more accessible than "Classic" FR. I can very easily understand you not liking "classic" FR and are now willing to give the new version a try. Great ... no problem. But "accessibility" of the setting being in some way better? Nope, I just can't see it. Now for all you writers out there, I can easily see why you are in support of the change. The difficulty for writers to know and incorporate all the FR material is a VERY daunting task. That to me is a much more valid reason behind the necessity to change than any that I have read so far.
