Coming off of the BG live action thread - Does the handling of the Realms in the last 15, 20, 30 etc, years (subjective to all of us) and the fact that it is now an essentially Disney-fied IP first, game world second turn you off from wanting to run it, work on it and expand it. Does your Realms still feel like your Realms? Does it excite you?
I have had an off and on relationship with the setting, mostly off for the last 10+ years, but have recently attempted to return at the behest of my players. Unfortunately, I am online enough to always be running into the new products from the game books to the novels to the newly announced HBO show and it has reminded me of why I finally left the setting the first time, but it is far worse now.
The 1e Realms and a good amount of the 3e releases are what I enjoy, and I am wondering if I am misplaced in my lessening enjoyment of this era and the setting in general.
What has been your experience and relationship in this regard?
