Ed Greenwood’s YT channel did more for me to appreciate Forgotten Realms as a setting than any book WotC put out, and he constantly revisits areas WotC has no interest in, like Sembia or Cormyr or Daelands.
I had no idea he had a YouTube channel! I’ve got a year of content to catch up on. I’m so excited.
I also didn’t know he had a youtube channel and I don’t think I’ve looked at a picture of him since the 90s. I had NO idea the dude had literally turned into Elminster.
Wizards really doesn’t care about anything they’ve actually done well. Their mostly abandoned settings are by far their best, the forgotten realms (and the sword coast specifically) are barely even mid.
Who needs a setting when you can simply pump out and sell campaign books. It would only empower the obsolete human DM.
