[QUOTE="transmission89, post: 8240033, member: 6688441"] Oh my days that would be awesome. I think one major problem we have is a , how to put this “kurt cobain/John Lennon” type situation . Like the setting was an early product started in Gary’s vision. Due to circumstance, it never had a chance to develop further with its original creator. The final product frozen in time, perfected in our minds as how we viewed it then. Gary may have developed it in ways that might have caused consternation to the OG fans. It didn’t age. It didn’t sell out. It didn’t cause controversy with choices. but that is speculative. This is a flawless, unassailable product that will only be “ruined” because someone else has done something different to it that didn’t match what you envisioned at your table. When this type of thread appeared before, I pitched approaching a campaign setting book as a wilderlands style hex crawl folio. With limited information or setting modification. Just snippets of basic flavour text about the nations and religions, then hexes with a small paragraph in each of different things (including the placement of classic adventures). That way, it remains as it was, a sketch of a world, waiting for you to ink in the details and add colour. To my mind, it would inspire adventure, differentiate it from the other 5e products and avoid controversies around a reboot of lore. I’d be interested in your opinion on that if you felt if it was viable or not? [/QUOTE]
