Or here's an idea, do what they did with Eberron originally - build a world that's designed for the rules and is flexible enough you can progress it and changes are natural. Then give the other settings out as optional buy ins for those who want something different from what's presented.

I've never had any issues running Greyhawk with 5e -- I've even run one of my old 3.5e campaigns and it worked fine. I didn't even both implementing optional death rules, let alone hard core rests. I've also had DMs run 5e in the setting for me. I played a lot of Greyhawk in the 3/3.5e RPGA days and deaths were pretty rare and it still felt like Greyhawk. 4e I'll agree with, but that didn't feel like D&D, let alone Greyhawk, FR, or anything.

That is how I felt reading the new Ravenloft. They stripped so much, homogeneized so much, that some of the things that they describe go against other things they describe in the same book. They bring stuff from the old lore, for exemple, that only makes sense in the new book if you know about the old one.

Well said. It is my observation that 5e is much less deadly than 1e to 3.5e and it is very difficult for me as a dm to transmit the feeling of real danger, let alone horror, in 5e. 5e is one of the reasons why the younger players in our group don't grasp the concept of horror and dying. They mostly just storm into melee without plan or any tactic. They were very puzzeled when halve our 10th level group died after they split the party without reason, and were almost angry at me when I told them they start at level 1. I can't imagine a Greyhawk campaign without the feeling of danger. After the half party kill we went back to 3.5e, which in my opinion more dangerous than 5e (although not as much as older dnd editions), but still not all my players grasp the concept that their charakters can die. 😅

You nailed it. Latter-day TSR, for all its faults, was keen to let skilled creators create. To let them take the game in wildly different directions. I'm not necessarily a fan of everything that came out of that, but you can't look at Dark Sun, Ravenloft, Spelljammer, Birthright, and so on and come to the conclusion that they were all forced to adopt the same prescribed tone. They're drastically different from one another. Completely different ways of approaching AD&D. Having what amounts to a mandate from the top that all setting and adventure material must be predicated on superpowered heroes with mile-thick plot armor blasting their way through a succession of paper tiger obstacles with smirks on their faces and quips on their lips severely limits what you can do.

I agree 100% Greyhawk has plenty of great content available, and lots of open area for creative DMs and groups to imagine and develop on their own. The gritty medieval flair would be lost immediately if I wander into a tavern in Dyvers and see a Bird Man, Turtle, Elf, Half Fiend, a Kobold and an Orc sitting at a table. While nearby Orcs and Fiends are mustering to raid outlying farms. I like that in Greyhawk some things are left to be the adversaries. Leave Drow as mysterious enemies, Orcs and Goblins as hated foes. I would rather they didn't touch Greyhawk than if they did things how their current settings are getting updated and written for. I am with you!

I mean, you could always do that in the original(with the halforc since I don't think Tabaxi existed yet.), they would either be converted for the setting(like the first modules for Halflings and elves) or be seen as something unnatural to the world(first released setting book, I think) like with draconians. But I never seen that live play, so I don't have the full context to say. But I think in the end of the day the dm would rule if one race can or cannot be in their campaign that wasn't already there.

I started with 3e and still have a physical copy of the _Living Greyhawk Gazetteer,_ but I also have digital copies of 1e and 2e _Greyhawk_ sourcebooks; and as I typically play 5e now, I've been operating under the idea that _Greyhawk_ has been reset back to the 1e timeline.* I even attempted to write up (well, mostly copy/paste) a "Player's Guide to Saltmarsh" that would give a rundown on not just the Kingdom of Keoland but the Flanaess as a whole (history, races, languages, deities, organizations, spells by infamous _Greyhawk_ archmages, &c.), leading up to 576 ᴄʏ (took a bit of effort to track down info on the "Circle of Eight" members of that time period!), something to supplement the "Ghosts of Saltmarsh" campaign I played in a few years ago. While I haven't always seen eye-to-eye with WotC on their "for modern audiences" version of _D&D,_ and while I've always been a big fan of setting lore (I'm spent way too many school days getting lost in encyclopedias), in a way I'm kind of glad for this supposed reset, allowing _Greyhawk_ to drop some unnecessary baggage and start things "fresh." I used to lament the fact that we haven't had a new source book in over two decades, but now I'm kind of glad we don't _because_ many of the old source books are still available (at least digitally), which should be enough to get that _"real arcade feel!,"_ so to speak. *(My favorite _Greyhawk_ character, Quintessa, was born in 575 ᴄʏ, however, so when porting her from 3e to 5e I had to use time travel / alternate reality shenanigans via the "Null Obelisk" from the 2e fan module, "Suel Imperium: Age of Glory."

I'm with you. Part of the joy of Greyhawk is anyone who wants to can pick up where Gary Gygax left off. The wisdom of WotC to just leave it be and do Forgotten Realms was one of the smartest things they ever did. There is a difference between owning the title to an Intellectual Property and ownership by authorship. When those things conflict, there is a problem especially when the legions of Gygax fans already scarred by the clock & dagger TSR politics. While I've got my OSR credentials, I only dabbled in published adventure modules like Keep on the Borderlands, Tower of Zenopus, and Judge's Guild Dark Tower and City State of Verbosh. I remember my friend DM Tim defaced the Verbosh cover my converting it to "Rubbish". Such was the fervor for DYI originality in those days that running "commercial available modules was considered "corrupt and lazy" "Well, you might as well stay home and consume what is on television." Being a tad more moderate, I wanted to see what was deemed good enough for publication. Yet I never recall having the opportunity to purchase Greyhawk - the City State or the World of. It was this legend discussed in Dragon Magazine. The size of the World of Greyhawk is ambitious. There are many regions in this multipolar world. I am still learning about how it all fits together. The years 576, 585, 591 form a band of time in it's legendarium where the history is more "filled in". A smart stewardship Greyhawk would allow for module optional additions of material that doesn't mess with the core. You know I'm a Carl Sargent fan. Who were the others authors who made substantial contributions to Greyhawk? I'm not sure if you have ever ranked or compared them in some fashion.

You pretty much nailed it when you said 5e assumes high powered PCs that aren't really in much danger, and that this is UTTERLY incompatible with older settings like Greyhawk. In the old days D&D was nearly as much "survival horror" and swords&sorcery as high fantasy. You came prepared to negotiate with threats, or run from them, as or more often than just fighting them.... because that was a good way to TPK. If you did fight, you tried to stack every advantage and useful tactic you could. Flaming oil was a perennial favorite. :)

Forgotten realms isn't really suited for 5e in the same vein though. Unlike say Xandria & Eberron which are designed to slot in pretty neatly with any rule set as there's always somewhere in the setting your players characters can fit without having to jerry rig them to fit. Fr & GH would benefit from being an optional setting source book rather than a default setting, heck Eberron is starting to go that way as well as much of what was in it lorewise either is skimmed over or left out entirely (Sarlonia and Xendrix were key locations in 3.5 and 4e now they're barely mentioned unless it's implied you just drop adventures in there without tools or lore to really flesh them out.) I'm unsure if Mystra would work as a default kitchen sink setting, but it has far more potential to be one than some of the others

I only played in Dark Sun a couple of times, as one of the guys I played with was obsessed with it. The aesthetic wasn't something I liked. I respect the setting though, and I know it's lethal. I remember reading a few months ago when WotC said that Darksun was too "problematic" to be republished, and in the same article someone that wrote "Radiant Citadel" said something. What they said was along the lines of how they would love to give Dark Sun the Radiant Citadel treatment and make it more valid for modern players. Radiant Citadel. An entire adventure that caters to player feelings. Dark Sun. An entire campaign world that wants your character to die. Something about those two extremes can't really meet in the middle. As much as I would love more options for campaign worlds outside of Forgotten Realms, if they were to do to Greyhawk, Mystara, and Dark Sun what they did to Ravenloft (which was an insult to the setting, honestly), it would be the TTRPG disservice of the century. I mean, have you seen the art for the new "Vecna"? Doesn't really inspire thoughts of a "God of secrets, world spanning cult leader, string puller, behind the scenes, avoiding attention until the end of the module where he wipes the floor with you" kind of guy. He looks more like a runway model showcasing the latest in the "Look at me Fashion Line for Liches". He would attract the attention of a blind guy in the dark. It's pathetic.

With you 100% on Greyhawk, I do disagree a little on the Realms. I think the Realms would have benefitted from not being part of the Wizardsification. The weird changes made each edition to the setting to try to explain the huge differences in rule application and the sometimes very large departure in depiction of areas (Thay for example), really changed Faerun for the worse in my opinion. I had a player for my upcoming Savage Pathfinder campaign ask to play in the Realms, my answer was sure, but only Pre Wizards Realm. Running the Grey box, Undermountain, Volo’s Guides era. I feel like that was mostly Greenwood’s vision still, and as a result was more cohesive. I also felt like the world was more sandbox ready because all of the hexes hadn’t been filled in. Just my thoughts! Great video!

Thinking about it, the Oerth-lite adventures and rereleases for 5th tease what we could expect. Characters retconned with lazy pallet swaps or unrelated lore, cramming the new planes (including 4e's theme parks of fey wild and shadow fell) into the GH cosmology, shoving new races into things where they would feel awkward (also lines up with character retcons) among other things. So yes, it's a blessing if the setting isn't widely touched.

So yeah. 100% agree with all of this. Started playing in the late 80's when it was Basic and Advanced, just before 2nd Edition came out. 2nd was my game of choice for years, and Greyhawk was the first gaming world I played in. Though I love Greyhawk, Ravenloft is my first choice to play, and DM. I'm a super Horror nerd. Love me some old Hammer and Universal Monster movies. Grew up watching them and Godzilla Movies on Saturday afternoons. I never had the chance to play Ravenloft in my youth, but I made up for that in my 40's when I got a super deal on the pre-Conjunction Boxed Set Used on Amazon. After that I bought up as much as I could find (and afford at the time) and jumped in head first. Now, in my regular D&D games my players were always a bit scared, as they should be. Playing Ravenloft they were terrified. Four Encounters during a five segment night watch while in "The Wilds" as RAW. And that isn't even mentioning anything that I Homebrewed! The only reason I switched to 5E was Covid broke up my Home Game and there was a DM playing 5E on Discord. If I wanted to play, had to switch. He's a really good DM. Not over heavy with magic, fair in his decisions, he's ok if a Character dies, and he throws encounters at us that we should rightly run from. I've DMed a bit in 5E, and it isn't terrible. Now when 5E Ravenloft came out I was SUPER excited. Ordered it the day it came out on Amazon. Read through the bulk of it the day I got it and was more than bit disappointed with it. It wasn't anything that anyone was asking for. I don't wanna say that they neutered it... but they did. It is not the Ravenloft of old. That being said, I still have all my 2nd Edition Ravenloft materials, books, and maps, but now I have updated 5E conversions that I can use with the 2nd Edition Lore. That can also be said when and if WotC decides to destroy Greyhawk worse than Gary did in the last Gord novel. You could tell he was pissed when he wrote that one. Hahaha. Anyway. Enjoyed your video and subscribed. Keep up the good work and keep Greyhawk Alive.

When a setting changes enough for DMs to not continue to base their campaigns on the publisher's works (1991+ "Five Shall Be One", "Howl From the North", "Greyhawk Wars", "Rary the Traitor") is the correct time to discontinue the setting. They were all well written & good in their own right, but it really was the death knell of Greyhawk being an open setting allowing DMs to let their players take the campaign to new heights by their own hands. Greyhawk became a script to be followed instead of a setting for a multitude of independent, although possibly connecting scenarios.

The gold box already provides a solid overview of the setting, and from there I like to fill in the blanks myself. All I'd like to see published is more Greyhawk modules, but I don't really see WotC recreating the feel of classic 1e modules, so that's a job best left to the fans.

While WotC has published a lot of new setting books for 5e, they seem to be one off products and not something with ongoing support like the setting lines of past editions releases. Theros, Strixhaven, Ravnica, maybe a couple others in forgetting off the top of my head, were original IP from their Magic the Gathering line. As far as I can remember, they released just the setting book and no adventures or supplements, except maybe some light free online tie ins. Eberron got an updated book as well, but again just a one and done product. I haven't heard much about Dragonlance, but I had no familiarity with the line, and I'm not caring too much about what WotC is doing these days.

WOTC's never really known what to do with D&D. They pushed the Realms hard with 3rd, and it worked as long as Ed Greenwood was still around. The 3e FRCS is hands down, perhaps the best product they've ever put out, and it's why I'm so hard on them. But, it was made largely by ex-TSR vets. Then there's "using" Greyhawk as the default setting but doing nothing with it outside the RPGA - and that's sad, because the Living Greyhawk Gazetteer was a great product, but got no attention at all. Everything else got farmed out to third parties (Dragonlance, Ravenloft) or left to die.

Although I'm really more of a 3/3.5 guy, I can totally see 5th working in Greyhawk as there are lower power settings (no feats, using reduced stat arrays, limiting races, excluding the more fantastical sub-classes, etc.). But this is something better done by someone who loves the setting and wants to just move it to a new edition. The last thing WotC would want to do is create a setting where so much of their "expanded content" would be disallowed.

Full disclosure:{ Being a class of 81' Grognard } --I decided 4 years ago to play 5e and DM using Greyhawk as the setting. I did this in Order to change/ modify the 5e rules and limit starting PC races ( of course even in Greyhawk a player could always run a sort of humanoid type race ) limit Cantrips ( Prof. bonus + ability mod + level ) use the DM guide optional rules for a more gritty / dangerous game that would also fit Greyhawk. It worked for a while , as the healing rules and limited cantrips and Thundercat/ star trek races were not allowed. BUT...... Eventually half of my players started to resent the rules changes ( even though most game from the DM guide options for 5e ) and wanted to be 5e superheroes with " Thundercat " races--- plus many 5e spells started to tip the gritty realism aside and i still got power bloat. I now run Greyhawk with ACKS ( adventurer conqueror king rpg ) for a public library teen D&D club and Basic Fantasy for an Adult D&D club. Greyhawk as a setting works great for those systems and would also work for most OSR games ( OSRIC, For Gold and Glory, OSE, Labyrinth Lord etc ) >>>>>>>>>>>> As you said - 5e and Greyhawk just are not that compatible - even though I used Greyhawk as an excuse to minimize the 5e power bloat... in the end player expectations and ingrained rules mechanics just work against the Setting.

Masque of the Red Death was allowed on DM's Guild since it's technically a Ravenloft subsetting rather than its own thing. *Every* product using it had to start with a lecture on how the past was evil. I can't imagine Greyhawk getting off any better. Eberron (a post TSR setting) barely getting any support in 5E was a mercy. As for 5E Ravenloft not being threatening: That's 5E for you. The math of the system is so broken (as in doesn't work unless you have a mass of rolls to let the slightly skewed averages work the right way) *everything* has to be a big bag of HP so the averages start to work out. It doesn't mater what the adventure writer's mindset is, the system just flat out doesn't support anything beyond a pillow fight.

After I had to suffer what they did to Spelljammer I'm very happy that they concentrate on FR and do not F+++ over the other D&D settings. FR fits into their attitude of "Overpowered Heros", I mean D&D always had some form of power inflation if the GM did not counter it but FR is a perfect setting for that style of play. I love various D&D settings like Greyhawk, Mystary, Zakhara, or 2nd ed. Spelljammer for their flavour and ideas, and like it that WotC has spared them their "modern roleplaying" ideas.

As a person who is a fan of the old Ravenloft setting, YES. I mean besides throwing out all the lore that accumulated over all the years, which in itself is just sad and wasteful. It has become more safe, more like a theme park ride. To be fair Ravenloft has always had a bit of an identity crisis, trying to be both fantasy and horror. The earlier actual setting modules (Except the OG Ravenloft module which really is its own separate things in a lot of ways.) had a rough time cleaving to that because they weren't fully used to making modules designed around horror. To me the golden age of Ravenloft was around the 3rd edition when Wotc had licensed out the setting to White Wolf and they were doing the setting books, the best book series being the Gazetteers. With 5th edition, they decided to throw all that stuff out and basically rebuild the setting from the ground up and it's just not nearly as good. I kind of would have preferred to be in a more Greyhawk position where WotC doesn't really seem to remember that it exists half the time. Thank goodness they aren't touching Dark Sun anytime soon, given how they've managed to mess up Spelljammer, Ravenloft, and Planescape.

I actually would like them to create a new setting, so it doesn't come with any baggage, and its up to the DM and the players to shapr the world. I do think you're being unfair to Ravenloft. Wotc did flesh out Barovia nicely, and it is very dangerous. I usually am the DM, but I was fortunate enough to play Ravenloft. There were times when the party had to run away. Thank you for the video.

I don't appreciate what I've seen about D&D since I've returned. 5E isn't the same game I used to run. Anyway, I'll probably stick to DCC.

As far as I'm concerned the 5E Ravenloft book is a travesty, they have taken a brooding setting where every character should struggle to survive, and turned it into a Dark Lord of the Week monster bash. We are lucky, my husband and I, we rarely sold any of the old setting box sets and books (I think Red Steel and Iron Kingdoms were about the only two we no longer have). All editions of Ravenloft (I tend to pull out the original when i decide to run it, I think it is by far the best, although I will use some of the updates from the 2nd release of the 2nd ED, and the books from 3.x D&D as they can provide some interesting extra material), Darksun, Forgotten Realms, Mystara, Spell Jammer, Council of Wyrms and Hollow World and of course the old Greyhawk box set, complete with poster maps, a little ragged around the fold lines, but useable with care. An old world can always be used, you just have to adapt the current system to fit it, or use an older edition of the system.

I don't think it's a secret that with every new release WotC gives D&D players-not necessarily their DMs-more and more powerful options and abilities pre-approved by WotC, making it ever harder for a DM to say no and keep the power creep in their campaign under control. As a result the risks are mostly there by player consent. Unless you're railroading your players, which you shouldn't be doing, they players will always have the option of a safety net past the first couple of levels unless they explicitly choose not to have one. And newer canned adventures will instruct a DM to introduce a safety net at those early levels if the players are struggling. The game tries to have few limits for players, which effectively puts limits on the DM. Old-school styled games, be they old editions of D&D, retrocolnes, or more modern creations that wnat that want to reintroduce the challenge and sense of danger of the older games all have limitations. The GM can raise, change, or remove those limitations, but the players never feel they're being cheated by doing it this way because it feels like they're gaining rather than losing. And it's easy to impose another thematic limit or two of your own because it fits with the theme of the game, especially if you've relazed one or two others. It all feels fair to the players. That's why even more high-fantasy/high-magic games can still be played pretty easily in an old school system (and have been for decades), but why it's so hard to have real danger in 5E. A system with limits is inherently more flexible than one without them.
