There should be plenty of lore, but written from an outside perspective, an unreliable narrator.
>>98422597sad
100,000 years ago the first emperor of humanity unified the central continent and brought many years of unprecedented peace, prosperity, and progress before sacrificing everyone in a ritual for immortality destroying the continent and creating the constant storms that dominate the world's oceans>but what about the empire?!?it was china themed mesopotamia figure it out
>>98422586>"NOO BRO UR LIKE SUPPOSE TO LEAVE THEM A MYSTERY N STUFF BROO!"I know you're memeing but this is very true.Sometimes it is best to leave mentions of forgotten lore in settings and leave breadcrumbs to paint a picture instead of going deep into what the mystery is and then essentially ruining it's appeal.It's a recurring phenomenon with little exceptions as far as I know.
>anon is asking the DM about retarded world building stuff instead of playing the game again

>>98422586You act like knowing jack shit about the vast majority of ancient empires and kingdoms wasn't also the norm until very recently in real life and even then our knowledge is pretty spotty since we are essentially cobbling together a thousands of years old jigsaw puzzle with 80% of the pieces missing.

>>98424251>until very recently in real lifeLmao we're just now learning about the pre-ice age global civilization we don't know shit.Egyptians found the pyramids btw.
>>98422586For most of human history peoples' understanding of anything outside of their specific civilization was minimal at best, let alone civilizations that came and went before their existed. >but I want to know all about the civilization that was gone five hundred years before mine started, why can't some old guy juts tell me? Mom, make him tell me.
You cant even reliably tell what is going on in the modern day empires unless you take propaganda of one side at face value
>>98426825My favorite thing about the Pyramids is that they were Ancient Egypt even during the time of Ancient Egypt.
>>98422586>ancient empire>looks inside>is the Roman's again>but no thermae because culture is fucking dead
>>98426925We're closer to Cleopatra in time than she was to the building of the pyramids.
>>98422586>ancient empire>looks inside>shit ton of lore detailing the most mundane shit down to botanical profiles for different corners of the empire and price fluctuations for individual items>players never interact with this information because why the fuck would theylol why even bother
