Personally I wouldn't dismiss them as "boring" per se, as I think you could do a lot of interesting worldbuilding with any one of them, but that doesn't make them good gameable settings, and they are fundamentally too one note to really want to spend more than a few sessions at absolute max. I'm sure somewhere there is a whole gaming group who want to spend months of D&D sessions adventuring around Mechanus, but I think it would wear on most people considerably quicker.Once these outer planes are reduced to "thematic setting you go talk to a god in for one session" they don't really require an extensive write up.</blockquote>
