[QUOTE="Oryan77, post: 6330622, member: 18701"] I don't plan to play 5e (I'm happy with my edition), and so I doubt I will buy any 5e books. I can say though that if there was some good planar fluff books released for 5e, I'd snatch them up. We have a fairly good amount of sources from each edition that describes the planes. What I would like at this point are more focused books that describe locations on & in the planes. I also don't mean releasing a book that is 3/4 filled with new abilities and junk for your characters with a chapter that has a paragraph for 50 different planar locations. I'd like books that are filled with so much fluff that it is worth buying if you run any edition. The 2e PS books sort of did it with the DM and Player guides.
