[QUOTE="pemerton, post: 7666861, member: 42582"] The comparison to Window95 is asinine. Greyhawk isn't a tool that needs repairs or adjustments if it is to keep doing its job. It's a work of fiction. The fiction is still all there. If anyone wants to run a campaign in Greyhawk, and dooesn't own the books, they can buy them all. (Or nearly all of them.) If you already own those books, then you can run a campaign in Greyhawk, so what's the complaint about? Are you seriously saying that you can't convert NPCs from AD&D to 5e where the module calls for it? "Setting support" being compared to watching reruns suggests that you're not interested in running games at all, but want WotC to write fantasy novels for you disguised as gaming material. What other meaning does "assessment and development" have here? It's not as if your game is going to break because, in the conversion, you gave Iuz Horrid Wilting at will and I gave him Finger of Death instead. [/QUOTE]
