Which Published Settings Have You Played In?

[Wombat]

Since we are sticking to D&D (TSR/WotC) settings, I can honestly say this.

In my time of gaming since 1975, I have played in...

• Forgotten Realms
• Tekumel/Empire of the Petal Throne
• Eberron
• Ravenloft

I have GM'd (which I do 80+% of the time)

• none of the above

I simply prefer making my own settings...

 

[YourSwordIsMine]

MY list of settings I've played in is really small... Most of my gaming experience has been with other gamesor in Homebrew settings.

The D&D settings I have played in:

Greyhawk
Mystara (currently playing in)
Nentir Vale
Kingdoms of Kalamar
Scarred Lands
Freeport

D&D settings I would like to play in:

Birthright

D&D settings I am about to run in:

Here's a question - Where does the assumption that people only stick to one campaign setting come from?

Does such an assumption exist? Though perhaps you're asking the wrong question. Someone might have played/GMed in dozens of settings and yet do 95% of their gaming in one.

Greyhawk (both using D&D and GURPS)

* I list these seperately because the mechanics of each game made the fluff of the setting feel completely different.

Here's a question - Where does the assumption that people only stick to one campaign setting come from?

If such as assumption exists, it may come from the multitudes of people not obsessive enough about the game to post on messageboards about it.

As to the OP, for me it's just DragonLance, Dark Sun, Kara-Tur, Al Qadim, and the Nentir Vale (since we seem to be including it). The great majority of the time it's a homebrew world.
