Agreed, Warlock is a great fit for a S&S setting, I for sure never said it wasn't.

We get it, you don't like the GH setting, it sure seems like you are hating on the setting just for the heck of it. No matter what anyone says you just repeat the same thing regardless, over and over, not even taking into account what is being said when it counters your criticism. That's just...

Your hate is at mach 10 man, why are you even here?

Funky is a positive where I come from... find your groove.

Gritty and funky sword and sorcery.

I feel there is a huge difference between FR and GH, the whole vibe is so different for me. I don’t really like the over the top HF of FR, but really enjoy the more old school gritty S&S vibe of GH. For me the difference is big. I’ll play FR but when I run it I tone it down. Also never realized...

I’m saying I’m not here to make a long list of differences between GH and other settings for you, do your own homework. Sounds like you believe there aren’t any and thus the setting would be pretty worthless since all other settings cover all it does. I disagree but you got it all figured out so...

Ok whatever, disagreeing about what? Also lots of adventure paths and modules set in GH, plus all the fan content active to this day. Read a setting book if you want to learn more about the differences between FR and GH. Oh I don’t put it passed wotc to have zero explanation for anything added...

There is... I am not going to write a lore and world setting essay here. There are plenty of books out there you can look over at your leisure that cover both settings. Your opinion of the GH setting and mine are different. I find much more value in it then you do. That's ok, for example, I...

Of course I have an idea what the flavor or integrity of the Greyhawk is, I've been using the setting forever. Good grief, I was being sarcastic to show the ridiculousness having defend such begin simple concept. I am not going to write a complete lore guide, those already exist. Just read one...

It’s not all or nothing, this is more of the absurd absolutes I keep encountering. Lore, the lands, people and places of the world lays the foundation and inspiration, of course it matters. It’s literally the story and reason for the world, it’s what makes it exist, so yeah important. Grand vs...

What are you talking about? I literally said the opposite. You can add new things while doing so while respecting the setting in an organic way. I was sarcastically laying out the absurd resistance to this I’ve been encountering. I never even said anything about Warlocks.

There is a ton of content for GH, going on for decades, including full campaigns and tons of support. So it’s been very much in use and a real setting, so what are you saying, exactly?

It's the opposite. "Setting Integrity" means there are actually meaningful differences between different settings that make them diverse, and interesting. Getting rid of that, they are all the same and lose any significance or meaning. That's not cool to me, I want Dark Sun to play and feel very...

Sure, come up with a cool way to introduce Dragonborn... they could be from a lost valley, or uncharted land where a ship has gone astray and landed. Any way to introduce a new entity into the setting without breaking the world. As others have noted the setting is very forgiving to funky and...

No, I do actually. But it seems to be a hostile and offensive idea to want to preserve any of the flavor of GH that makes it an interesting and unique setting. Even if adding new things is ok if done in a thoughtful and organic manner, that too seems to be a bridge too far, and far too...

I think it is now apparent the theme doesn't matter at all as long as everything from the latest books is added. It's really all that matters, GH is basically just one step away from worthless, it's just the new stuff that matters. "Sword & Sorcery in a world of danger and adventure" is dead...

I didn't say any of that... add whatever you want. I actually said organic growth is great and can be done in really good ways while still keeping the flavor and uniqueness of the setting that makes it special but that is lame right? The setting sucks anyway, it basically has no history worth...

Right, who cares, the lore and history of the setting is stupid and doesn't matter.

It seems that the idea of Greyhawk as a unique setting with a distinct "flavor" is extremely overwhelmingly unpopular. So ok, turning GH into just another FR with everything and the kitchen sink thrown with no logic also seems to be the prevailing desired viewpoint. All good, just add every...
