[QUOTE="howandwhy99, post: 2112585, member: 3192"] Generally I try and look for what I like in setting. Finding something I don't like about a setting, any setting, is a simple gut check. So I strip out the pieces I don't like. Often this means the setting is significantly different, but I'll likely never run an unmodified campaign world anyways. Better yet (for me), is stealing from settings I like and throwing the whole of them into one big pot. There they can brew in my brain while things cook down to a nice thick sauce. One were everything complements each other. That said, I think Spelljammer is my least favorite popular setting. It has so much I find distasteful and very little I find intriguing. Another is the old Horde boxset for FR. I have a neat little campaign written up for that area, but when I read the boxset I could hardly believe how awful a job they did. I couldn't take anything from it lest some vile flavor seeped into what I was making. [/QUOTE]
