[QUOTE="Maxperson, post: 9728968, member: 23751"] I don't think you really understood what I am saying. It wasn't the specifics of the setting that I was talking about. Greyhawk and Forgotten Realms both have details about them that enrich the experience. A specific player may not care about FR vs. Greyhawk, but both will appreciate the added depth the details of those campaigns offer in game play. It doesn't matter if it's the Zhentarim or the Scarlet Brotherhood, but having details like that present and usable in the campaign adds to the depth of play and makes it more enjoyable than a game without details to draw upon. At least in my experience. In that manner, the setting details are cared about by the players, even if they don't know that they care. Some players will absolutely care about the lore of specific settings as you note, but those aren't the ones I'm talking about. There's a difference between going to details already in the setting(whatever setting it is) in response to a question or action declaration, than in coming up with one on the fly. [/QUOTE]
