#TEMPLE OF CYRISS GAMEPLAY WITCHFIRE SERIES#

There are some aspects I don't, but I won't mention them for fear of negative posting. There are some aspects of Eberron I like - Changlings, Shifters and the Houses I really like.

It's new, it's scary - and it isn't what they're used to.

Tell me the 'Campaign Classics' and 'Demonimicon of Iggwilv' series in Dragon didn't warn your heart a little? ) It's up to us to extract what good we can from their output. WOTC are just trying to follow their market and make a buck, they can do this best with innovative new! New! NEW! ideas like Incarnum (ftw? :-/). To a generation raised on the cosmopolitan flash-bang of Final Fantasy and Harry Potter older and more traditionally 'high fantasy' settings like Greyhawk and Birthright may seem a bit inaccessible, or, dare I say it. I suppose it's a generational thing in a way.

The adventures have left me cold, and most of the expansions are kinda 'well, duh!' material to someone who still has his old 2nd Ed boxed sets lying around. Serious note, I bought the 'Eberron' campaign setting purely to steal every bit of swashbucklery goodness I could out of Eberron (Xtreme Xplorer, action points, Halflings on dinosaurs, etc.). OMGWTFLOL doooouuuuooood Materia Dragonshards and Wolverine Shifters RAWK!!!11one1!!! ) However i really am doing my best to ignore the Eberron. To me, any setting with golem druids and ninja's is a total smack in the teeth, to older and more loyal fans who cried out for Dragonlance pre-chaos war, Spelljammer, Ravenloft and Faerun. To me its a setting that (no offense to younger players) seems totally designed and marketted for the newer kiddy generation, at the spite of the older loyal fans who want high fantasy.
