I don't want magic punk or some off the wall fantasy type. Give me NORMAL fantasy, something which is moldable. FR is great overall simply because it doesn't vary from the typical fantasy you expect, but it is vast enough to incorporate all sorts of fantasy ideas and types that you wish to incorporate.
GH also has this idea as does Blackmoor. You want off the wall fantasy, well there's a place in the world like that. You want dark fantasy, well there's a place in the world that has it. You want crazy weird fantasy...well...there's a place in the world for that or open enough that you can create it. You want sci-fi fantasy...well there's a place for that as well.
Don't give me these world settings which can be covered in a single city (like Eberron does), give me expansive fantasy worlds which you can have your high, low, or whatever fantasy without having a single overriding campaign element like Eberron (I know many liked it, I didn't) or Ghostwalk, or others which are, in my opinion, are a one horse pony. Give me something with more meat than those and more variance.
