So you have your RPG world space in your minds eye, but how do you go about populating your world? What plants, animals, food portals, herbs do you place into your world? How do you decide where to put these things and then how do you let your players know all about them? These are all really great questions and can inform how real and rich your world feels. In today's episode, I chat all about the best way to go about populating your world and help to ensure that your players take interest in the things that you've added to your RPG world. I also chat about the idea of solo RPGs and voice my reservations, thoughts and questions on the topic. Topics covered: How expectations play a role in populating your world? Why expectations are one of the most powerful tools that we have. How to add your own 'flavour' to your world. The parameters around which we should be building stuff into our worlds. Solo RPGs - it is possible and how does it work? Is there a rise in solo gameplay? What about the lack of collaborative effort within solo gameplay? Join the weekly live podcast recording on the Discord server - every Thursday at 5pm BST. Join here: https://discord.gg/hdWecCYbaWCasual FridayWhere 2 friends sit back, celebrate the week that was and talk about nothing in particularListen on: Apple Podcasts   Spotify
