The difference is that in a game you can act in that setting and pretend you are in another age.
A medieval setting would work well set in a lot of countries, Italy, France, England, Scotland, Middle East, etc, but for a Renaissance setting Italy is almost a must, France and England could be good second choices, but more for late Renaissance - Mannerism era, when enough time had passed for the new ideas to spread, for example in France when Leonardo da Vinci and others were called there.
