The 3E Manual of the Planes vs. the 2E Planescape campaign setting. It's like comparing cafeteria hamburgers to a steak at a fine restaurant - technically they're both cooked cow. <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f609.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=";)" title="Wink    ;)"  data-smilie="2"data-shortname=";)" />I can see the original poster's point, and felt exactly the same way - but I'm just recently managed to move past that and just accept that the 4e cosmology is not something I am interested in. Plus, as mentioned, it's easy to ignore and use the original Great Wheel and that's what I'm doing in my 4e Planescape campaign I'm starting up right now. It saves me money on having to buy the 4e Manual of the Planes, as well. Always a nice bonus. But, yes, a part of me does feel sad that future generations of gamers might not get to experience the awesomeness of Planescape, but at this point, it's probably up to us rather than WotC to keep it alive and pass it onto those who will follow. And if the GSL ever gets updated to something more palatable, I'm hoping to start publishing some 4e material and you can bet much of it will have a quirky planar bent. <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f642.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":)" title="Smile    :)"  data-smilie="1"data-shortname=":)" /></blockquote>
