I like adventures are more open-ended, and not an endless railroad towards the final module. It's why I like modules that covers a relatively small set of levels, usually three, but sometimes a bit more. Red Hand of Doom covers about 7 levels and is still pretty open. I bet it would play out even better in 5e because of bounded accuracy.I am about 66% done with Reavers of Harkenworld, which is a module that is really cool to incorporate into a campaign. My players focused on getting their own domain, so now they are helping out, hoping to get a little village called Redwood, the ancestral home of the Vrylokka PC. When you have a module like this (3 levels), with a start and end that can easily be changed to fit with the PC's action it's much more rewarding for me as a DM, and would have been as a player as well. This, as opposed to a opposed by an "adventure path" that has assumptions about the general outcome of the previous module, and general assumptions about it's outcome. In Reavers of Harkenworld, the PC's could have decided to do something outside the box, like subverting part of the Iron Circle and taking the power there for themselves. It's something you can do in a 3-level module without breaking anything, while it would probably render much of an adventure path inconsistent and/or really hard to run, since just about everything would have to be changed to allow for an outcome so outside the box.</blockquote>
