<font color = lightgreen>The Forgotten Realms world was a really great place with a lot of promise, until people like Ed Greenwood began to ruin it. Then came the Time of Troubles--ugh. Then they started all that Kara Tur, Maztica, Al Qadim stuff and doing off-the-wall plots like the "Chosen of Mystra", which was designed only to make the authors' old characters invincible and immortal.
On the other hand, I never could get into Krynn because they had too much godly influence (or interference) and black-and-white good-versus-evil duality. I must admit that Raistlin probably could kick Elminster's ass, and Mordenkainen's, as well.
In short...neither.</font>
