[QUOTE="DEFCON 1, post: 8306170, member: 7006"] I personally don't expect Eberron, because the next most popular part of the world after Khorvaire is Xen'drik... and that land is pretty analogous to Chult and what we already saw and got in [I]Tomb of Annihilation[/I] so it'd be kind of a repeat... plus we already have a complete Xen'drik book for 3.5 so you'd basically be duplicating the details of an entire book for no real additional reason. I also do not believe Greyhawk falls under the "returning" category (even with the couple GoS adventures there), because to me instead it feels more like it would be one of the "classic" settings he talked about (were it to be done at all.) By the same token, to me, using the term "returning" feels weird if it indeed was referencing the third continent of Exandria... because while it is a return to that planet... it's an actual area that [I]nobody[/I] has ever been to (other than the players in CR in a bunch of episodes, but none of it has been written down.) This is all just verbal semantics, granted... but I feel like going to Issylra would more fall under "new setting", the same way doing Greyhawk feels like "classic setting". Which is why my impression of a "returning" setting would either be a "Domains of Delight" book for the Feywild that mirrors the Ravenloft book (and we'd be "returning" to it following Witchlight)... or we'd go to a specific location of Faerun-- one with a specific type or genre of fantasy and story. So it wouldn't be a book about the entire continent... but rather one small section with a particular style. Like an Underdark setting book (building off of [I]Out of the Abyss[/I])... or a Cormyr book with a 'knights in shining armor' / strongholds and followers type of stylistic choice... or a Moonshae Isles feywild-esque book (adapting and building up off of everything Baldman Games has made for it thus far.) And I mean you could even go so far as to say Kara-Tur, Al-Qadim or Maztica, although again from a semantic POV that doesn't feel like we would be "returning" to them per se (even though they are all on the planet of Toril.) But really, who knows how they are all defining them. So we'll have to see. [/QUOTE]
