[QUOTE="Draenar, post: 4481393, member: 70870"] I'm about to start a 4e FR campaign, pretty much straight up as in the Campaign Guide. I'm a long-time Realms fan (about ten years), and FR has always influenced my world-building style, even when I played in my homebrew setting. That said, I totally empathize with those who don't like the changes. Throughout reading the guide, and reading a bunch of old Realmslore for ideas, I had the feeling that something was missing from the altered setting, something that made it "less FR". However. I distrust this gut feeling, considering how much like nostalgia it feels. I'm going to give it a chance, and if I just can't reconcile myself to it, I can always use the epic tier to hit a reset switch. :p My only major changes are going to be inserting a number of NPCs I've created in earlier FR games, as well as old PCs, many of whom have risen to power, or left descendants who can show up. I'm a sucker for continuity. Plus, I'm using my campaign to right a couple wrongs that the Spellplague has inflicted. (For instance, I *really* liked the sharn, and would like to see them sane again.) Zaukrie, completely agree about Ao -- I have my own ideas for him that never came up in game before. Maybe I'll trot them out as part of my epic reset button. :devil: [/QUOTE]
