D&D General Is the SCAG Still Useful?

I'm running Tyranny of Dragons and use it a lot, mainly for lore, descriptions and encounter building. No complaints.

It fits very well with the Campaigns from Tyranny of Dragons to Storm King's Thunder. Storm Kings Thunder plus SCAG is a fantastic sandbox combo with those other Campaigns.

Like Tyranny of Dragons it had a long tail too.

Crazy for me to think that when the 3E core books were as old as Tyranny of Dragons and SCAG, they had been replaced...twice.

It’s a much different world. Imagine back then folks started an effort to encourage folks to “read a D&D book in public” was a thing.

Nice to remember that sometimes, in some ways, the world canand does get better.

I would probably not be so into the Playing rules portion of SCAG, but I feel the Lore portions that cover things not covered in the new FR books is still relevant and thus still useful.
