[QUOTE="atom crash, post: 3591782, member: 22162"] But what will be REAL fun is when/if Wizards ever publishes a true Greyahwk setting hardcover and the hard-core fans complain about the treatment it gives their favorite setting. Damned if you do, and damned if you don't. If I made decisions at WotC I'd be hesitant to step into that minefield as well. I gotta say, for my part, I love old Greyhawk material. If WotC released new Greyhawk material, I'd probably buy that too. But since I don't currently run a campaign set in any of WotC's published settings, I'm not going to purchase a product solely becasue it is tied to a specific setting. I buy Greyhawk, Forgotten Realms, Eberron and core D&D material based on the merits of the material, then file off the proper names and insert them into my Frankenstein's monster homebrew. And correct me if I'm wrong, but WotC doesn't need to release a Greyhawk setting book to support Living Greyhawk because that's what the regional associations do. If you play LG, you get your region-specific setting info from your triad and your DM, right? Anything else is covered in the Living Greyhawk Gazeteer, which in my opinion pound-for-pound is the BEST setting material WotC has released in years. Why? It's not bloated down with new rules, new prestige classes, new spells, etc. It's all setting-specific fluff. [/QUOTE]
