But that only matters so far as you care about flavor or light homebrew. Most of the basic heroic paths appear to be general enough that you could put them on any world without tweaking. Surgebinding is pretty specific to Roshar, which doesn't mean you can't slot it into another setting, but mileage/dissonance may vary from player to player. Fabrials are also pretty Roshar, but, then again, since they fill the space magic items would in most campaigns, they still could reasonably fit in any medium-to-high magic setting, with artifabrians being very similar to artificers in that regard.  Same goes for Shards.As for the rulebook, it's very, very specifically Roshar. They are not going for a generic setting. The same will apply for the Mistborn setting book, but for Scadriel, and so forth with future releases. If they do the "Worldhopper" book sooner rather than later, that's probably the closest you'd get to having a setting-generic sourcebook that uses this semi-unique TTRPG system—but generic in the sense that it's a sourcebook intended to be usable with tons of planets in a gigantic universe with lots of shared deep rules, rather than in the sense that DnD is "generic fantasy."</blockquote>
