[QUOTE="Stormonu, post: 9177859, member: 52734"] I enjoy new campaign settings, and there's several dozens I would love to run. I'm not much for the deep, deep lore (on the level that's available for say, FR), but I'd like enough information that I can have an idea of what to run and what would "feel right" - without it running roughshod over me to to box me in. If nothing else, they're usually gold mines for getting me thinking about how I'd do something similar in my homebrew. I tend to do far more reading than I include as lore in-game, but that is pretty enjoyable to me as I like to daydream about what it might be like to be in one of those worlds and have adventures in them that aren't tied to dice, mechanics and other things that tear down that fantasy pondering. I love FR, Greyhawk, Dark Sun, Dragonlance, Mystra, Planescape (mostly), Ravenloft and all the others - well, except Horde, Maztica and most of Karu-Tur. The 2E campaign boxed sets and a book or so about the immediate area I'd like to run a campaign in is pretty much all I need. So far, 5E has been a bit too light for my tastes. It actually bothers me that I don't seem to be WotC's "target audience" and I end up feeling like I have to go to other companies to actually get what I want (often to find out it too isn't all I was really hoping for). I am apparently not WotC's target audience - and I don't want to have to bend my own fantasies to accommodate them. I like what I like, and that is what I like. And lately, I don't feel like I've been getting it from WotC. [/QUOTE]
