While I agree with you that epic foes are perhaps too planar-centric, I don't see the big problem in that.For instance, in the Star Wars Universe, it didn't hurt that there was no defacto 'home world', because the galaxy was a big place.Maybe it was because in our own epic campaign we roleplayed across multiple different planets, that I don't have the same intrinsic attachment to any single world.Why is the Epic Tier only the campaign-ender? I would have thought its where you unleash the 'super-powers' and crank the dials up to 11.I did a lot of roleplaying in an epic campaign and it never grew stale, nor required continuous one-upmanship (of the scale) to sustain interest.We had massive wars, demonic invasions, time travelling, duels between deities*, giant aliens trying to eat the planet (and the mad cult aiding them), cross-genre adventures (modern, sci-fi), undead empires, planar politics, alien wizards from the past, reawakening overgods, invading humans from another world, mega-dragons and loads of other escapades. *and demigods. <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f61b.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":p" title="Stick out tongue    :p"  data-smilie="7"data-shortname=":p" />So, in a nutshell, I disagree there is only so much epic gaming to be had.</blockquote>
