Message: <blockquote data-quote="DEFCON 1" data-source="post: 7137527" data-attributes="member: 7006">Oh absolutely... if WotC was to release any setting material for the non-FR settings, I definitely think it will be in either a large tome that has significant chapters on the "big five" or so settings with both setting info and mechanics... or they decide to do smaller SCAGish books for the settings individually.The one thing I don't think will happen though is the full and complete "Campaign Setting" tome that many people keep wanting/demanding for even Forgotten Realms.  Where (like in the 3E FRCG) they have write-ups on every kingdom in the Realms, there are huge sections on Realms history, on magic, and religion, and the gods, etc. etc.  If they aren't willing to spend their production budget of time and money to make a tome like that for the Realms (a setting you could possibly justify because indeed the timeline advances so there is conceivably "new stuff" going on in a lot of those areas)... then they are NEVER going to do those giant books for Dark Sun and Eberron because they just did them for 4E, and nothing will have changed (other than game mechanics for PCs and the statblocks for NPCs).At that point... easiest and cheapest thing to do (for both WotC *and* the players would would like to play in those settings) is for just the "Worlds of D&D" type of book to point to DMs Guild and tell people "If you want even more detail... the setting info you can get from any of the setting books released during 1E/2E/3E/4E are all still valid, unchanged, and because they are PDFs of older books, much less expensive for you the consumer."</blockquote>
