I remember desperately saving up money for the gold boxed set. I had a whole ton of the little region books, read a lot of the novels, etc. At some point, it just...got to be too much for me, and went to "hate it." I still have some favorite regions (the Shining South/Shaar/Chult, and the Lake of Steam Region...at least my version of it, anyways), but started to get very "eh" with the rest. After a while I didn't like the map of the Heartlands anyways.I took a look at the FRCS book and I like it a bit, but then there's little things here and there that make me twitchy like "The Weave" and "The Shadow Weave." I can never read that and not think of Beautyshop with Queen Latifah. Then there's the references to magic as "The Art." I've spent enough time around tons of precious people who refer to what they do as "Their Art." Gack, I'll pass. I still find the whole "Mystra's Chosen" and Spellfire stuff yucky.Anyways, I still come across things that make me say "cool!" I guess getting Serpent Kingdoms as con-swag helped. I flipped through it, I liked it. Also the drow invasion of Cormanthor was pretty neat too. I thought that dark elves taking over elven surface realms was always a fun idea, and I would have hated to see it not get used after the D&D Known World got canned. <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f61b.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":p" title="Stick out tongue    :p"  data-smilie="7"data-shortname=":p" /> To sum: I say "six of one, a half-dozen of the other." I'm on the fence on this.</blockquote>
