Will we realistically see a 5e campaign set in Eberron from WOTC?

[QUOTE="Jester David, post: 6865733, member: 37579"] Eberron is cool but as I said last time, it strikes me as a low update priority. The Realms gets a new setting book each edition. So it's a must. Plus the land changed with the Sunder, so people need to know what's what and where's where. After that, things get fuzzier. Eberron and Dark Sun were both upated in 3e, so that makes them less of a priority. Adding to that, Eberron hasn't changed since 3e, with no timeline advancement or alterations. And since the world is fairly new and books well printed, you can pretty much buy the 3e and 4e books for fairly cheap. You could get both 4e Eberron books for the same cost of buying a theoretical new campaign guide. Or 2-3 books for 3rd Edition. Or probably 5-6 in PDF format. As the old information is still valid, there's less incentive to buy a new book since it has less to offer. It's a reiteration of what is known. After that is Ravenloft and Dragonlance. Popular settings, but updated as licensed worlds in 3e. Slightly more likely, but still available. Higher priority might be something that hasn't been updated in a while that could benefit from a full colour professional product, having not seen a hardcover product since 2e. Like Greyhawk. Or Mystara. Plus, WotC might need to begin worrying about their trademarks for their older settings. Planescape would be a good choice since that could be folded into a [I]Manual of the Planes[/I] product. Also a good idea would be Kara Tur and Al Qadim, since those are different but technically expansions of the Realms. [/QUOTE]
