We've discussed this before. We can't complain that FR is more than the Sword Coast and then use... Sword Coast adventure materials to complain that FR has more material. 1 it requires people to buy adventures. It's not cost effective to ask people to buy a 50 dollar books for 40 pages of material. Sure the maps and stuff are reusable but I can buy map packs off Paizo or Amazon for less and get more and they are more usable with my tokens or miniatures requiring less prep time on my end. Plus WOTC has Dungeon Tiles and Paizo has flip tiles so that's not a good selling point. Plus that's like comparing Shadowdale from the Avatar trilogy modules to the 3.5 Eberron book... not the same product or goal. One is a location to explore in an adventure, the other is an overview of a world that I can pick up and read to see what's available and the various flavors etc available in the setting. FR has the benefit that it is well known and has a lot of fans who might want more than... Waterdeep. So we can't argue out one side of our mouths for one thing and then the other side arguing for another. Personally I don't care about an FR book but I have an FRCS to use. I just find the arguments against it weak. I also find the constant posts from people who make these arguments against it pretty tiresome. For a while, when they were releasing the MTG pdfs for use with D&D people were essentially saying the same thing and now here I am running a Theros campaign that is balls to the wall crazy... ya know, a book that wouldn't happen 3 years ago when those pdfs first started coming out.</p></blockquote><p></p>
