[QUOTE="Oofta, post: 9518310, member: 6801845"] In my campaign world, my wife has been adventuring in it for a long, long time. Nothing major changes that can't be explained by historical events. Meanwhile my current group is brand new because we've moved. Does it really matter that a specific city is in a specific mountain valley next to Silver Lake? Probably not. But it matters to me, if a friend of ours from years ago looked us up they would theoretically recognize many of the place names and locations. They may even hear about some of their exploits from over a century ago. So I'm not going to reveal a hidden valley where [insert species du jour] live because if I did that I'd have dozens of races accumulated over decades of "just one more can't hurt!". But ... it looks like we're back to "My preference is" vs "My preference is"? Nothing wrong with that of course, but after more than 200 pages haven't we already established that we just want different things and have different styles? Do whatever works best for you and yours. For me? I establish and maintain the large scale lore because I've been doing it for a long, long time. [/QUOTE]
