D&D General Wildly Diverse "Circus Troupe" Adventuring Parties

[Mecheon]

But, you were just going on about how this year it's Forgotten Realms, next year it's Dark Sun. So, it's going to be at least two years before we see a Greyhawk adventure. What was the point of putting it into the DMG and then not having any support?

I mean, basically no setting has full on support, let's be honest here. FR and Ravenloft are the most supported, but even then Ravenloft only has one adventure and a "Here's some ideas book", and FR is the setting of the award winning Baldurs Gate 3. Most people wanting Greyhawk just wanted it unlocked in the DMs Guild to go and publish their own adventures and stuff.

Plus... Well, let's be honest, there isn't really much to Greyhawk to make "This is a Greyhawk adventure" stand out from anything else and at that point, you may as well make it a FR one and coast on "This is the part of D&D people know and are fond for". That's by design per Greyhawk's roots. Saltmarsh can just be dragged and dropped into any setting relatively easily as long as you've got rough equivalents.

and they remain one of WotC's primary demographics for what mechanics their designs pursue.

Mechanics and lore, seeing what they did with the new FR books of removing anything from 4e because "most people got upset because of it" (this was the actual reason, as stated by the Tondro guy in Discord).

Nothing. Zero assigned reading. I describe the setting in session zero and answer any questions they have during character creation. The world unfolds as they play through it.
