[QUOTE="Oryan77, post: 5590276, member: 18701"] I had only played D&D for a year (which was only Dark Sun), so I was not very familiar with D&D other than the Dark Sun setting. I knew nothing about the multiverse, I played a Fighter/Thief so I had no experience with magic, and since it was Dark Sun, I knew nothing about magic items. Then I saw the Planes of Chaos boxset at the comic store and I'm pretty sure this is what happened: [ame=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=svEPWBxpYjo]YouTube - Jaws dolly zoom scene[/ame] I bought the Planes of Chaos boxset and I had no clue what I was getting myself into. It was the most confusing thing I ever read. It took some time to realize that I needed to get a campaign setting boxset first. Even though the setting confused the hell out of me, I still kept trying to wrap my head around it. Something about it just fascinated me so much. Fifteen years later and PS is still the only setting I run. I think I've finally learned a thing to two about PS. My favorite thing about PS is that you can do whatever you want with it. If I want to use the gods from Forgotten Realms; I can. If I want to run a Ravenloft adventure; I can. If I want to use Half-Giants from Dark Sun; I can. I can even run an adventure on Krynn if I don't want to have it take place on a plane. I have never felt limited with PS. [/QUOTE]
