So what makes you intrigued enough by a setting to want to run games in it and read novels in it?

I suppose that the want for adventure and magic is what gets us and it is not always the book or game or novel that gets us. Some us find a world so good that simply want an escape from reality or "vacation" from our life so we look to find that in books. I suppose that magic is what gets me though because it puts me in a world where anything can happen.

A very broad question this and not at all easily answerable. I think all D&D settings have their own charms, as do non D&D settings, as long as they are internally consistant. Cost, time and quality then become the only real limits on getting into a setting.
