[QUOTE="Knightfall, post: 6064685, member: 2012"] I definitely think its a great time to revisit Greyhawk. However, I don't think WotC should make any sweeping changes to the setting. Instead, roll it back to the original Gygaxian version and then add the best of the rest into it (but don't go overboard). WotC should look towards the FRCS from 3E as their guide to making a new Greyhawk campaign setting hardcover. If they build the setting in such a manner, I'll buy it!!! Also, I don't really see Greyhawk as being similar to the Forgotten Realms. FR has changed too much to be considered similar in style to Greyhawk. It has been ripped apart and patched back together too many times. Sure, Greyhawk went through the Greyhawk Wars, but it hasn't been torn asunder (over and over and over). I doubt WotC would ever rewind FR; if they did, it would invalidate dozens (and dozens) of sourcebooks and hundreds of novels. However, for Greyhawk, they could rebuild the setting using its roots and not have to worry about pissing off die hard fans since most of those fans prefer the older version. (Now, me personally, I love the From the Ashes boxed set, but I'd love a restarted Greyhawk, regardless.) And with Greyhawk, you don't have a 'strong' novel line to be concerned about. In fact, a revised classic Greyhawk campaign setting could be restarted with a new line of novels. Just my thoughts... [/QUOTE]
