We tend to only hear what WotC rejects, not that they are privy to all of it. I would be surprised. But not as much as I'd be disappointed. And sad.

You can walk into FR from Eberron, but you cannot just walk into Mordor Eberron from FR. They also snuck the eveningstar key in, but Re is still right that WotC specifically nixed the original Hall of Heroes concept, where you were supposed to be able to walk in one end from Eberron and out the other end into FR and vice versa. Lorewise, we are only supposed to be able to travel between FR and E through the Demonweb.

Yeah, I've heard it mentioned, but it sounds like the kind of thing that could easily get misinterpreted or grow in the telling. Getting back to a primary source could clear things up. Maybe someday if I'm bored I'll post some questions about DDO on a D&D forum, that should ruffle a few feathers in an entertaining way�

	I think Lore is great but abandoning convenience for the sake of lore is kind of a kick in the teeth maybe the key to eveningstar teleports you through the rift? Maybe the Hall O' Heroes is just a less convenient tunnel through? There's room to stick with the lore but keep the convenience.

	I'll never understand the propensity of people to brag about being good at a video game. Its a toy you play with for fun. The only person who should be proud of you is your mother. If you're 3.

Maybe the Hall O' Heroes is just a less convenient tunnel through? There's room to stick with the lore but keep the convenience. ^This I could see why WOTC wouldn't want airship towers and teleporters in the FR setting, it looks out of place. But why would they want to make it inconvenient to get to? That's a Turdbin thing, not a WOTC thing. Make it painful so you can sell a less painful alternative. And it's not like MajMal never lead us to believe things that were not true. Maybe he was under orders, maybe he carefully chose words so as to imply something without lying outright, but no matter how you rationalize it, he knew full well that those of us who believed him were misinformed. So why would we believe this is WOTC's fault? I'm sure Turdbin is relieved blame is falling elsewhere, but I've been lied to enough to want to see a more reliable statement before I drink the koolade.

Darth Anonymous wrote on Feb 1^st, 2014 at 1:11pm: Hearing something has "merit" but we don't have "time" kind of says everything about how Turbine works on things. eighnuss wrote on May 27^th, 2014 at 12:52pm: everyone but turbine knows that we are sad they are destroying our game majmalphunktion wrote on Aug 30^th, 2013 at 12:12am: I don't make the game, I just get tested what they build. Sorry you are not happy. Skoodge wrote on Nov 27^th, 2014 at 6:54am: DDO is easy to summarize - the greatest game to suck the most ass.

Especially if they can get us to buy it, that just cracks them up. Meursault wrote on Nov 12^th, 2015 at 2:50pm: Breaking something and putting it back together isn't as good as not breaking it to begin with, it's not even close. palmer01 wrote on Nov 20^th, 2015 at 9:05am: Devs do not care what players want - they already have an agenda and give out token gestures so the paladins can feel worthy.
