D&D 5E What of the already done settings do you think WotC is revisiting for a Setting Book?

I would love a source book on the Shadowfell proper.

Seems like the most likely thing. I think I'd like a reboot of Zakhara more (and I mean a reboot, be respectful), but this would be a good book too.

There's a Zakhara guide that was released on the DMs Guild a couple of months ago. Its really good, and they had a Saudi Arabian consultant and co-author on the project. It's not "official", but it's just about as close as you can get.

Of course, I wouldn't mind an official Zakhara guide from WotC. And I'm sure they would go the same route with a cultural consultant if they did...

It will be interesting to see if the movie blows up the setting (again). It would make narrative sense to have most of continent fall under the sway of an evil empire (e.g. Thay) with Waterdeep and Neverwinter the last hold-outs.

It needs a good war to shake it up. A conventional one, without gods, omnipotent wizards and rearranging landmasses.

What about some WARLORDS? Eh? Eh?

I would love a source book on the Shadowfell proper.

It would probably feel a bit too redundant with Ravenloft in tone. They'd want to wait a while before bringing that out so soon after a Ravenloft book.

Speaking of Feywild, why not the Shadowfell? They've included a lot of creatures that live there or have been changed by its shadowy nature, but they haven't done anything with it so far this edition.

I would still put that in category 3. Not impossible, but feels unlikely after Van Richten's release.

I've seen it; no offense to its creators, but I'm a sucker for fresh art and crisp layouts, and even that doesn't do it for me.

What, VGR? I really enjoyed it myself, and I've been a fan of Ravenloft for a very long time.

I dunno. There's a lot of things in the Shadowfell that don't and wouldn't appear in Ravenloft, since Ravenloft is supposed to be a twisted horror version of a more typical gaming world, and the Shadowfell is very definiteluy another plane of existence.

Oh no, I was referring to the Zakhra book. I own the VGR, I think it's awesome.

Looks like Exandria is off the list

I still say it could be Greyhawk
What else has a bit of ink spilt for 5e? Planescape and Spelljammer for sure.

I’m ever hopeful for Dark Sun, Spelljammer, and Nentir Vale.

Warlords and swordmages, please.
