Message: <blockquote data-quote="Li Shenron" data-source="post: 3143307" data-attributes="member: 1465">I think many settings mentioned have some problem:Greyhawk is too generic to be able to generate a line of books. Basically Monsters of Greyhawk is pretty much the MM, races of Greyhawk is the PHB etc... A campaign setting book with history, regions and NPCs could work, but after that there is only regional books, which are attractive to aficionados but I doubt they would sell very much. And for non-aficionados... why choosing Greyhawk when Forgotten Realms can never be reached as amount of books available.Planescape shouldn't have been touched with a "bastard" product like Planar Handbook, because now to make a Planescape campaign setting book would mess up a lot.Al-Qadim would be perfect, but I often think that it was never published in 3.x to avoid potential problems due to the fear of terrorism. I know, no one serious would be concerned with a RPG game, but there are a lot of non-serious persons too around. I think this would be discouraged by any marketing branch. <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f641.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":(" title="Frown    :("  data-smilie="3"data-shortname=":(" />Maybe they'll consider something new. For instance, something with pirates and firearms, taking advantage from the popularity of Pirates of the Caribbean and Harry Potter.</blockquote>
