Hey there, goblins! Worldbuilding is a massive topic, but today we’re cutting through the noise. We’re distinguishing between "Worldbuilding for Use" (getting a game to the table) and "Worldbuilding for Self-Indulgence" (writing lore that no one will ever see).
We’ve created a 10-Question Framework to help you build a playable, lived-in setting without getting overwhelmed. We cover:
Purpose: Is this for a one-shot or a level 1-20 campaign?
Theme: Why you need ONE core theme (and 3 micro-themes).
The Kitchen Sink: The debate between focused settings (like Ravenloft) vs. everything-goes settings (like Golarion).
The Details: Hard vs. Soft magic, scarcity economies, and pop-culture inspirations.
Plus: We announce our new $30 Patreon tier where YOU can play in a monthly game run by Eric!
