[QUOTE="elZombie, post: 8304933, member: 7031138"] I'm pleased with the possibilities for two "brand new D&D" settings. Always nice to see (possibly) fresh ideas. A new setting designed with 5E and "modern gaming" (whatever that means) in mind could be very interesting. Theros was a nice book, for example. I also lack the general nostalgia/wish for old modules (I started with 2E, the Realms and homebrews, in early 2000) and the more niche old settings, so to say (Planescape, Spelljammer, Dragonlance, Birthright etc.), so I'm on the new settings team. I'd like to see what they'd do with Dark Sun, though (except I don't care about a full psionic class; I think it works just fine as wild talents and no "formal training"; I might be wrong, but I still don't care about a full psionic class). As for revisiting a setting, I'd guess it's a Dalelands & Co. (Elminster's Guide to), perhaps with an AP. It once was one of the main supplements of the Realms, after all. Tons of lore to update. I'd think the folks at Critical Role would want to publish a new setting book by themselves, with their own company. They sure have the fan base to do so. That would leave Greyhawk (Saltmarsh) and Eberron, I guess. The latter has a good support on DM's Guild. Keith Baker released Exploring Eberron last year, with a lot of new content.
