[QUOTE="Alizaire, post: 6234634, member: 6762440"] [b]The reason Forgotten Realms gets played more imho is...[/b] That they have more books written for it, work on the product more, and issue more accessories for it. It's not hard to see that the 3rd generation of gamers use it as their main home world for campaigning. Greyhawk was left to rot except for the Living Greyhawk Campaigns and a half-hearted reboot. If you don't make content for it consistently it's no shock that the younger generation of gamers won't call it home. Now WoTC may have it's reasons for this (some I'm sure are rooted in who has rights to what). I personally love Greyhawk more as it's the grandaddy of them all (not counting Blackmoor). It has that loose and wild west element to it. Not everything is explained to the nth degree, etc. Many more spaces to fill in the blanks with if you're the DM. I wish they would republish all the old modules / content in 3.5 and 4th Editions for at least PDF download. You talk about making a M.I.N.T. I would GLADLY snap them up to save me the conversion time. I think people want content available in cross-platform mode so they can snap it into whatever D&D version they run their campaign. Just my two cents. [/QUOTE]
