[QUOTE="delericho, post: 6766232, member: 22424"] But that's the rub: those of us who want any supported setting other than FR [i]should[/i] just accept we're not getting it and move on. It doesn't actually matter [i]why[/i] WotC are doing what they're doing, whether it's what the sales numbers sell, or because they're consolidating to FR for ease of licensing, or because they've been put on life-support, or because CP and MM secretly hate all other settings, or because it's a vendetta against the fans, or because they're doing it just to annoy you personally. Ultimately, it doesn't matter. The bottom line is that they won't be supporting these other settings for some years to come, and we're not going to change that. I might (indeed, I do) want Eberron and Dark Sun support, but beyond the occasional Unearthed Arcana article it really doesn't look like it's coming. And it's a [i]good thing[/i] that they're making no bones about this - it means that those of us who want a supported non-FR setting know what we need to do: look elsewhere. [/QUOTE]
