I, on the other hand, get tired of the same old elves-dwarves-priests-of-So-and-so-oh-and-we-have-a-twist settings. Most of them either try to inject "mythical verisimilitude," or turn into Something-Punk.

One of the great thing about settings that draw on real-world people and situations is that these things are defined in great detail, and do not rely on hackneyed clichés and sweeping generalizations.
