Everything to Know about World Building

[@Stoneworks]

If there's ever been a SINGLE video that you should watch about world building... It's those LSD simulation videos, those are epic Thanks to my friend at Game of Minds, who encouraged me to make this video, and will be hosting a Fantasy Convention in Warsaw, March 1st.

I think having a realistic map like earth, just a little more unique is what's needed for a great world

[@tannerm2706]

Hmm True

[@Not_Dane_Heart]

Artefexian and biblaridion are rly good channels if you like realistic world building.

[@platypipope328]

No one size fits all approach exists to worldbuilding. What is important is to make the map consistent with the themes and aesthetics of the narrative* you're trying to tell through the world. *narrative not meaning traditional story. Settings themselves are a type of narrative, and even the act of framing certain things in particular ways creates themes

[@platypipope328]

One great example to reinforce this point is elden ring, which has a completely unrealistic map whilst simultaneously being one of my personal favourite fantasy settings

[@Shaso-xv3tw]

I would agree, the best way to world build is to have a map and to fill in place by place what’s occupying the land you have generated previously. It makes the worldbuilding feel more natural and less constructed, even though it is constructed. It goes a long way to helping readers and players feel like the world is a real place and not something made up by some person, even though we logically know it is it creates a sense of belief in the reality of the secondary world that is hard to achieve from building the map as you expand it.

[@lucasdegamers]

Thank you for teaching me the rule: "Take whatever thing you are making, and increase the horniness 10 fold." I always disregarded the importance of horniness in world-building before watching this video, but you explained why its needed so well that my eyes have been opened to its ingenuity!

[@tannerm2706]

Teach me your ways

[@ggadams639]

as if Tolkien, the best world builder to ever lived used horniness to make his world. It's silly that's all. Have fun

[@lucasdegamers]

@@tannerm2706 it's not that difficult tbh, just do what the rule says take some one or thing, for example a half dressed girl, and multiply the hornyness levels by 10 so like a half dressed vampires that is wearing clothing that reveals the good parts instead of covering them who has an apetite for male blood.

As the night goes on, the infectious energy of the Shrek rave seems to have a mind of its own. It's said that even eman4480, the most elusive party pooper in all the land, couldn't resist the allure of the neon-lit swamp. Try as eman4480 might to resist the call of the epic dance floor, the rhythm of the music and the joyous laughter of Shrek and his friends simply would not leave eman4480 alone. Before long, even eman4480 finds themselves caught up in the magic of the Shrek rave, dancing the night away alongside the ogres, fairy tale creatures, and all the party animals of Far Far Away.

Once upon a time, there was a remarkable individual known as Eman4480. They possessed an insatiable curiosity and a keen intellect that brightened the lives of everyone they encountered. Their wit was as sharp as a razor, and their kindness knew no bounds. As they journeyed through life, they left a trail of inspiration and laughter in their wake. Eman4480 was a true force of nature, a beacon of light in a world that often felt dim. Their impact was immeasurable, and their legacy will endure for generations to come.

[@Lord_Of_Aether]

When it comes to making maps, one crucially important detail that is often overlooked is the fact that the cartographers in a technologically pre-modern setting will make highly inaccurate maps. We see this in our own world, with the maps of Herodotus, Plato, and Eratosthenes even making errors in the mapping of well-known lands such as Greece and Italy. Thus, if you want a map to feel truly natural within your setting, it should be made from the perspective of a cartographer living in that world, with the actual/realistic map serving as a basis for what such a natural map would look like.

12:50 The bit about the importance and flexibility of maps reminded me of the way Earthsea was developed by Ursula K. Le Guin. When she was asked to write a young adult fantasy series, the first thing she did was get out a massive blank sheet and start drawing islands. I highly recommend the series for worldbuilders, especially reading every foreword, afterword, author's note, etc. Le Guin reveals a lot about her creative process and growth as a writer in the meta texts and gives valuable insights about her loose style of worldbuilding. The most interesting thing she talks about is how she views the world of Earthsea not as a place she creates, but one she visits. There are hundreds of islands in Earthsea, and she only ever visits a few. She doesn't see unvisited islands as "unfinished", but a place which has yet to reveal itself to her. TL;DR, read Earthsea

The MLP grimdark ashpunk part got a chuckle out of me. Bcause I've done essentially that in the past. I wrote an MLP fanfic that took the characters though a post apocalyptic alternate universe where the sky is filled with smoke and everything is covered with ash. I later revised it, taking ot out of the MLP universe and building my own world around the story that I had created. Ive been working on that world ever since. Writing stories across both alternate universes and several different time periods. Spanning from the bronze age up to the industrial revolution of the world.

I personally find the process of outlining the world map gives me a really nice constraint for creativity and often allows for the generation of interesting ideas based on the physicality of the world. I definitely think the detailing and actual world building should be focused on one small section at a time, but I find that having a physical "canvas" of what the different physical places in the world are like is a really useful starting point.

Currently making maps for a friend’s TTRPG game. It’s somewhat more realistic than most TTRPGs, with an in-depth combat system, so I wanted to do a realistic map. I started with a few random fault lines, put mountain ranges along some, then mapped where the warm and cool currents would be. The interplay between geography and those currents will largely decide climates and biome placement. I’m hoping he’ll appreciate the in-depth map, and that future nerdy players might notice and enjoy the realism.

I recently started worldbuilding for my next campaign. I started with a story idea and drew the map around that idea, I really like what I came up with! The basic idea is that a catastrophic war took place and as a means to end the war, a coven of powerful geomancers erected massive walls to separate the continents and to quell the war. Their plan didn’t work at first as it just reduced the conflict from a world war to many wars on different continents. Eventually, the two sides grew exhausted of the constant conflict and decided to sign peace treaties to end the war. The Campaign goal is to find the Geomancers and get them to destroy the walls to help unite the world in peace times once again

Banana Bread Ingredients You likely already have all the ingredients you'll need for this banana bread recipe on hand. If not, here's what to add to your grocery list: Flour: All-purpose flour gives the banana bread structure. Baking soda: Baking soda acts as a leavener, which means it helps the banana bread rise. Salt: A pinch of salt enhances the overall flavor, but it won't make the loaf taste salty.\ Butter: A stick of butter lends richness, moisture, and irresistible flavor. Brown sugar: Brown sugar sweetens things up and adds a hint of warmth. Eggs: Eggs act as a binding agent, which means they hold the batter together. Bananas: Of course, you'll need bananas! Choose overripe bananas. How to Make Banana Bread You'll find the full, step-by-step recipe below - but here's a brief overview of what you can expect when you make this simple banana bread: Combine the dry ingredients in one bowl. Beat the butter and sugar in another bowl. Add the eggs and mashed bananas. Add the wet mixture to the dry mixture. Pour the batter into a loaf pan and bake in a preheated oven. How to Make Banana Bread Moist This banana bread is super moist thanks to butter, eggs, and brown sugar (which adds more moisture than white sugar). Plus, mashed bananas have plenty of moisture on their own. Make sure you store the banana bread properly to keep it moist for several days. How Long to Bake Banana Bread This banana bread recipe should be perfectly baked after about an hour in an oven preheated to 350 degrees F. You'll know it's done when a toothpick inserted into the center of the loaf comes out clean. Make sure you let the bread sit in the pan for about 10 minutes before turning it out. Otherwise, it might not stay in one piece.
