What I meant was for a sandbox game don't jump off the deep end with a setting where so little is familiar. FE bombards you with so many weird names etc you can't (or I can't at least) even start to make sense of it. I'm not saying I wanted another over the top/forced humor game like warlock or homm. But if the game is going to have such a novel setting (rather than a new spin on existing tropes) then the game needs to tell the story not just dump it on the player. Alp

I would have preferred a more accessible setting. The usual fantasy tropes (elves, dwarfs, 'n orcs) are popular for a reason. Instead elemental confronts you with a malazan-style (which I can't stand) lore dump ... almost a parody of such... though I don't think this is intentional [e digicons]:digichet:[/e] I'm afraid to say the setting is putting me off. Which is a pity as otherwise the game is pretty much what I was hoping/expect
