Let me guess, you need more?

Nah senpai, that's perfect.

I'm a first level fighter, my name is Reginald, my backstory is that I am a disgruntled turnip farmer, from up the road, I spent my starting gold on a ten foot pole, and a mule to carry my loot, let's rock.

Minimalism is freedom.
The map will naturally fill out through play, as long as you update it with new locations as they are discovered/invented.

Much like how the thread will take on a character of it's own, if left to organically develop.

Modern roleplaying games make too many assumptions of the sort of game people want to play.

The minimalist approach applied to a broad system, lets people decide on their own terms.

Does it give less prompting to those who's imaginations are less fertile?
Yes.

But that isn't a problem for people who are there to bash goblins, make dad jokes that turn into recurring gags, and roleplay the outcomes of the dice, rather than their over-stuffed character background sheet that is in danger of blooming into a bargain bin YA novel.

>>96733085
I get the adage of make only what you need, but that is not what the op's pic is denoting. That image is telling you to just copy Tristram, which enforces the idea that the campaign is just going to be a Diablo.

>>96733098
Pack it in bro, he got you hard. Even if you're not samefagging, you thinking calling out the xref data is a nonsequeter means you need to lurk so much moar.

I've been here since before the /qst/ split, dog-breath.

And if you think anybody cares enough about samefagging to perform some dorky data-spoofing maneuver to win an anonymous argument on the internet, about plastic spacemen, then you are not just mad, (in both senses of the word) but additionally, self-important and dumb.

Also, in regards to your second, less drool-inducing statement; that is not a problem in the slightest.

Tomb of Horrors has more or less the same format, so do plenty of other classic modules.

Lifting the town layout from tristram is just the same as cribbing some clip-art.

The whole thing can be filled out into a metropolis if need be, but in the beginning?
Yeah, you don't need more than a town layout, a map to the dungeon, and some random tables, monster stat blocks and a shortlist of names for NPC's

Everything else can be winged, and you are probably going to get more gaming done that way.

And if you think up something cool, throw it at the wall, and see what sticks.

Wizard of Yendor?
Orb of Zot?
Right, lovely, lets go, we can learn about your tragic and no doubt excessively rapey and miserable backstory some other time.

>>96733170
And I am one of the original Something Awful posters who came here when m00t first made the place. Fuck off, faggot.

>>96733195
>A Goon
Disgusting.
You people are a sickness; unironically, stick your tongue in an electrical socket.

Anyway, you told me I needed to "Lurk More" so you started the credentialfagging.

And what we've established is that I belong here, and you belong somewhere else, a long time ago.

So go find a time machine and fuck off.
>>
>>96733206
I'm not a goon anymore you illiterate reprobate. I meant I have been here since literally the very start, newfag. So go introduce your neck to a noose like the rest of the 41%.
>>
>>96733229
Bloody bitch basterd!
>>
>>96733229
>A Goon
>Calling anybody a Troon
Goons and Troons are thick as thieves boyo.

Personally I think you faggots are just mad that I promptly responded with a screenshot showing that OP's thread actually was appreciated by someone.

You miserable little homo.

This is just one of many garbage threads, I hate them all.
>>
>>96732653
Yes, obviously. Even back in OD&D real settings were popular (proof: WOHF).
Anyone saying otherwise is either a newfag, or a contrarian.

4chan is a goon colony. Always has been, always will be.

what's with the random unprompted racism?
>>
>>96733651
>America is a British colony; always has been, always will be.

The secession was a long time ago.
And the cultural divergence within Something Awful was what prompted an exodus in the first place.

However, the anthropological history of webforums aside; Goons were always irrelevant faggots.

No, you weren't, reddit-spacer.
>>
>>96733777
I've been "reddit spacing" all that time.
And I will continue to "reddit space".
I have never had a reddit account.

I do however, have weak eyesight, and prefer to parse text that has been separated out.

Now, is that all, or are you still butthurt that I responded to OP?

You streak of congealed gender-fluid.

Outward deformity is a sign of inward degeneracy, useless eater.

>>96732653
Yeah, I do.
>>
>>96732653
There should be an agricultural zone outside of town
>>
>>96734035
Or reading lots of books in poor lighting conditions.

Frankly though, the real signifier of degeneracy, is being a deceptive rat-faced kike, who assumes everybody else is also operating on the same level of base dishonesty.

>Y-you samefag

If I gave that much of a fuck, I'd be fully half as sad as you.

Draw a rectangle somewhere in the free space.
Bam, done.

Still not strictly necessary until it becomes relevant, and so simple that it can be generated arbitrarily on command.
>>
>>96734262
How are farms not strictly necessary?
>>
>>96734367
If they become necessary in short order, I can take a moment to draw the square.

However, If my players have decided to go picking cabbages for session one, instead of trying to get themselves into some sort of "adventure" then I've already failed to sell them on the concept of a dungeon crawl, or possibly on roleplaying entirely.
>>
>>96734427
So you're just too uncreative for the farm. Got it.
>>
>>96734465
Assume crops are using standard rotation methods, with a season for a nitrogen fixer like beans, and a season for ground cover, and a season for the staple crop, and moving round the plots; small sharecropper's lots probably.

I mean, I COULD let you pretend to chase geese and ducks round, but at that point I might as well just let you play with your phone.

The GM is supposed to have fun too, remember.
>>
>>96733500
WOHF is fantastic and it's insane that nu-/tg/ won't talk about it.

>>96733883
Why are you so mad? Is it because everyone shitting on you is right?
