[QUOTE="Mournblade94, post: 7940533, member: 74608"] Its Complicated :) I take a page from the ElderScrolls Dragonbreak. When the Spellplague occured, many lands got suspended in time (like most of the "other Continents" kara tur, Zakhara, Mulhorand, Maztica) and their time line froze until the second sundering. SO the areas on the sword coast have advanced since that's where most of the story occurred. I play the advanced timeline, because the Forgotten Realms Group made a good effort to compromise things. The new realms is not so bad, and I play it with the Spellplague largely being less effective (BECAUSE of the efforts of the PC's like 13 years ago), 4 of them are STILL in my current campaign with lower level characters. Alot of the problems I had with the Spellplague weresolved by me creating adventures for my Players Epic level characters. Example: They changed Vaasa to the Warlock Knights, and my EpicPC's broke their back by destroying Talos the Iron Golem. 3 Attacked Talos on the Prime, and 3 simultaneously attacked his aspect on the Elemental Plane of Earth, destroying him outright. So I kind of let the new history be OUR history, with the Epic PC characters a major reason for alot of the published fixes. I have for the most part liked the story path adventures (except Tomb of Annihilation was weak and shoe horned), and I just wrapped up OUT OF THE ABYSS. I have repaired my meta story to gel with the new realms, but alot of that was curtailing the spellplague. The second sundering book series were very good, and I like those stories so they sold me. My disappointment is they did nothing with those novels after except for maybe Erin Evans. There are a lot of characters I would like to see continued. RA Salvatore and Ed Greenwood both have video interviews where they tried to stop the WOTC decisions of the 4e realms. They were too late, but they both said they had plans to fix it before it started. I am not sure where to find them. [/QUOTE]
