[QUOTE="Abstruse, post: 8096323, member: 6669048"] I also expect Spelljammer to get a bit more attention thanks to Baldur's Gate III, considering (based on the cinematic they released) the game starts on a nautiloid. There's also been a lot more teases for Spelljammer elements in D&D books over the past few years than Planescape. It also helps Spelljammer is more high concept. "It's D&D but on flying magic sailing ships in space" is a lot easier of a concept to get across to mass audiences than "It's a city made of portals where any door you open could transport you to anywhere else in the multiverse seemingly at random and oh yeah there's a multiverse..." Much easier to do Spelljammer as a "setting" and present Sigil as a major port of call, sort of like how the Sword Coast is huge but Waterdeep still gets a lot of the focus (or expanding it out, Faerun is huge but the Sword Coast gets [I]all[/I] of the focus).
