    What makes setting lore "actually matter" to the players?

    You can say the same for every species in every setting in every genre. 🤷‍♂️ To you, is pretty key. You seem to ignore quite a bit of whats available.

    What makes setting lore "actually matter" to the players?

    What makes setting lore "actually matter" to the players?

    I think there is a lot of relying on the tried and true recipes and not trying to step in it when constructing a unique species and it's culture. Like the D&D setting with formerly enslaved monkey minstrel people. I mean, good god who thought that up even in the 80's or 90's? I think more effort...

    What makes setting lore "actually matter" to the players?

    Im not entirely sure of the original quote's context? Based on the OP, it seems less interesting setting because of lots of species, and more interesting because of places and factions. The Inner Sea Guide for Golarion of Pathfinder is an excellent read for just this sort of preference.

    What gets me playing Draw Steel and not Pathfinder 2e?

    I'd post a picture of my Replacements foam finger (its not the pointer), but ugh Erik's grandma wouldnt approve. That would surely go over well at game day.

    What was your 1st RPG and what was your favourite campaign about or best memory?

    HeroQuest the board game actually. It is like training wheel for D&D and RPGs. Though, we learned all the basics and it wouldnt be long before we knew the board and mechanical limits of HQ wouldnt do anymore. Though, as a kid it was my gateway into RPGs.
