Welcome to /wbg/, the official thread for the discussion of in-progress settings for traditional games.

Here is where you go to present and develop the details of your worlds such as lore, factions, magic and ecosystems. You can also post maps for your settings, as well as any relevant art (either created by you or used as inspiration for your work). Please remember that dialogue is what keeps the thread alive, so don't be afraid of giving someone feedback or post whatever relevant input you might have!

Thread question:
>How much (or how little) do you borrow ideas from real animals, plants, fungi, and speculative evolution? Are there any cool real world facts you have used to inspire parts of your world-building?
>>
Can I set a campaign in my nazi inspired faction?

Besides picture related, what advice and resources do you have for someone looking to create their own magic systems?

I told you before. Now there will be 3 Discord links in the next OP. If you do this again, there will be 4, then 5. I will do this until the OP just becomes nothing but Discord links, or you learn to shut the fuck up.

Wanted to post my map, miniatures I painted of Gods and leading figures, and story of my setting in Reddit since 4chan's traffic has dropped off in recent years and there's more trolling than real responses. But I got permanently banned from Reddit and can't post there. It's a lot harder to make a new account for them if you're permabanned there than it is for 4chan and I lost my appeal.

Or, you can heed his advice and fuck off linking to Discord on 4chan, you zoomer cunt. Maybe then you'd get some actual engagement.

Sorry, I already warned "him" (you) that if "he" (you) didn't shut the fuck up whining about Discord links, "he" (you) would get more of them. I don't go back on my word. You can either shut the fuck up, or get a list of Discord links a mile long. Your choice, wannabe janny.

I'm not either of the people you're referring to. I don't care how old anyone here is. Hell, I don't even play TTRPGs; I almost never post on /tg/ because I don't want to get in the way of genuine tabletop discussion since I come here to get ideas for a video game I want to make.

But sectioning off discussion to an inherently more restricted, more controlled, and less private space - especially for a General, of all fucking things - is detrimental to the board's health and longevity. In particular, 4chan has systems in place for backing up previous threads and discussion without having to have an account or other nonsense; if content is removed from Discord, it's functionally gone forever. Yes, you've already linked the previous thread, yet you keep trying to get people off-site? Looks purposeful, if you ask me.

Besides, the Worldbuilding General is already enough of a joke in other parts of /tg/ as it is. You don't have to add fuel to the fire by embarrassing yourself for suggesting having TTRPG discussion take place in some restricted and controlled server somewhere instead of the TTRPG board you posted the off-site link to in the first place.
