I don't think that fleshing out the Sword Coast first and then branching out is a bad way to go, even if it's not to everyone's taste. They can drop another Realms Area Sourcebook a year for years and not run out of new places. This gives them something to release in between other premier releases like Setting Books and whatnot. Also, it's not as though the entire audience for the game has as much exposure to to the Realms as some of the experienced long-time players who post here (like me- you can pry my copy of City System from my cold, dead, hands). Those people are generally not going to own or be familiar with the ton of previous edition FR source books and are likely to be far more receptive to additional 5e FR materials. To them it wouldn't perhaps feel like just more of the same whatnot.That 'something different' is, I'm sure, in the works, but it's not going to happen every release.</blockquote>
