[QUOTE="Vascant, post: 2417024, member: 13927"] Though I do play an adhoc version of Greyhawk myself, I started running the world in 84 and have managed to collect 317 3 inch binders of notes and history on my world. What I find lacking in most worlds today is the lack of interests the publishers seem to have other then, getting someone to buy their book (Which I can understand). I remember a time when I looked at Wizard's FR website as a shining example of what a living CS looked like on the web, you could find out the weather for Waterdeep, interesting tidbits of information and the like. Alas, now is the day of Eberron and I am not very interested in the setting. When one of my groups ended up going to FR on a specific mission, it really helped me bring some flavor to that world. Now am I odd and like odd things, who knows but I do think those that would play a setting would rather it be supported in a way to make it feel more alive then just a product to spend money on to save me the time to write it myself. It sends a message, you want more then my money.. you also want my interest becaise if you have that and you will have my money as well. I think my groups have spent a total of 13 days on FR and yet I own every book ever created for it. Those are just my thoughts on it.. [/QUOTE]
