[QUOTE="gyor, post: 7963262, member: 6670153"] That is hardly a scientific poll or even a good source of information, most FR fans aren't on Enworld. And the SCAG was published away back in 2015, of course its not selling as well as newer books, none of the rest are even 2 years old! That its still beating Ravnica even with its age, small size, lack of support for regions outside the Swordcoast, and mechanical flaws it a testament to the settubg that its still competitive with the rest, all of which came out after D&D 5e exploded in popularity compared to when the SCAG was released. And the huge popularity of Wildemount actually proves my point, its not the volume of marketing or lore that dictates the popularity of a setting, its the quality and the ability to connect with an audience that does. Exandia could eventually be a rival to FR, but both of its main continents already have 5e setting books, and the rest aren't ready for a book yet until season 3 of critical role, which has been delayed. This leaves plenty of room for a FRCG 5e book, after which more niche and less popular (but still popular settings), can get their campaign books. [/QUOTE]
