worldbuilding in vague terms and on large scales is like oooo I'm so smart oh wow I have so may ideas that are original or at least not mainstream yeah yeah I'm gonna make a setting to overtake Zelda and elder scrolls oh man lore fans are gonna fucking love all these useless little details and some smart person is gonna do the maths on how any of this will actually work for me oh yeah

and then suddenly it's How Do I Name Anything. Why Are There So Many Places And Objects. Is This Too Many Planets Or Not Enough. Is This Too Much Magic Bullshitting. How Much Do I Leave To Theory And How Much Do I Explicitly State

#anyway its fun to design a dream game/world setting and makes you appreciate how much work has gone into every fictional world ever #and its only taken me four years of idle developing to get to a solid solar systems concept #turns out trying to fit all of your deity domains/worlds into a single solar system is... hard? and feels too small??#so all the major divines get their own system in a little stellar cluster that probably wasnt entirely natural #and once i have the basics of all this done i can go back to my sapient species and touch up their designs and cultures and stuff #if this project ever gets big enough to actually Make something out of it man oh man are the furries gonna love me #its me im furries i love creatures and beasts of human intelligence but in no way human appearance #fuck ya final fantasy cat people i want more peoples like monhun felynes around #if you make your completely-unrelated-to-humans species look like a human but with Animal Trait XYZ then ur a fucking coward/j #'this race is decended from dragons' then fucking make them look like it!! what kind of reptilian has collar bones and hips like a primate #give ur fantasy furbait race parralel shoulders and at least a semi horizontal standing position. make sure the teeth are accurate at least
