I've been hosting a monthly (or almost monthly) D&D game at a comic store in my neighborhood. The game is meant to be both an introduction to D&D for beginners, but also, hopefully, an enjoyable experience for seasoned players and a way to meet others who enjoy playing D&D and other RPGs in general. (We are hopefully starting an "Indie RPG" series as well, with another GM taking point.) Sessions are meant to be stand-alone adventures, but within a consistent game world. Actions and events from prior sessions can be seen in future sessions, and some adventures build off of events in prior sessions. Players have mostly been using pre-gens that I provide, but I'd like to encourage players who want to to create their own characters and continue bringing them every month.
We took a hiatus this fall, but are starting back up again this January with level 1 characters. Up until now, adventures have taken place in my own setting. My question is — since this is a public game with players passing in and out, am I dumb for not just using a public setting like Forgotten Realms?
