[QUOTE="eyebeams, post: 1879125, member: 9225"] Popular compared to what, exactly? It's safe to say SL outsold most 3rd party settings -- but other companies don't expect the same margins as White Wolf/SSS does and don't have what are potentially better moneymakers to sink dough into either. For something that began as an implied setting for D&D supplements, it grew beyond expectations. I speculate that we'll see the Scarred Lands come back if D&D4 uses the OGL/D20STL (or something similar), probably using a more centralized series of releases with a big omnibus followed by things where the setting's more implied, like the CC series. What I think it would be really great for is a video game license. Scarred Lands has very "zone"-like locales, justifications for all kinds of monsters and PC races that are familiar enough to run as is, but different enough to give designers something to play with.
