It makes Sigil look like some kind of insane rave party by comparison. And worse... Ravnica doesn't have style.I have theories.In particular my theory is that a lot of people "in charge" at WotC do not and never have liked Planescape, and that how much people in WotC like a setting causes irrational decision-making (like the repeated failed attempts to make Greyhawk "happen").My supporting evidence is sparse, I admit, principally:1) WotC allowed the horrible "kill all the Factions" adventure at the end of 2E to get published, but refused to publish the alleged "Oh no it was only temporary" adventures Monte Cook claims he was writing.2) WotC has never been nice to Sigil or Planescape in three editions now. In 4E, it actually doubled-down on the very worst stuff from the "kill all the Factions" adventure, and made Sigil be run by a number of extremely dull three-letter-acronym agencies like it was smallish Midwestern city or something, not the capital of the multiverse, or the melting-pot of the multiverse, or whatever.The sheer staggering lack of Planescape despite it's enduring popularity and nigh-legendary status (in significant part due to DiTerlizzi's illustrations ofc) speaks volumes, imho.Hoping to be proven completely stupid and wrong by one of the upcoming classic settings but I really doubt it at this rate.</blockquote>
