[QUOTE="Knightcrawler, post: 315524, member: 5097"] [b]How Long Can You Go..[/b] Well up until I was 25 my longest campaign I was ever in was a year in length. Too many people with school, girlfriends, and issues to keep it going longer than that. Also I've noticed that many of the groups that I've either been in seem to loose interest in the campaign after about a year. Around the time they hit 8th to 10th level. Right now I'm running a group thats been together for about two and a half years. We;ve had people come and go but the core people arr the same. We started out in a 2ed Forgotten Realms campaign that lasted about 1 year (the story arc had finished and we wanted to go onto 3ed). After that I ran a 3ed Greyhawk campaign to get the 3ed rules and mechanics down (and to wait for Forgotten Realsm to come out), now we've been on a 3ed Forgotten Realms campaign for the last year with only two months off for a quick Star Wars game in honor of AotC. Right now everyone is around 8th level anmd I plan on running the campaign until we can utilize the Epic Level Handbook. So hopefully another 2 or 3 years. As to creating my open campaign worls, I did that when I was young and before I discovered the Forgotten Realms. I designed it from the ground up. Building countries and people without a specific story arc in mind. Try there were some things that I put in that I thought would make my campaign interesting. Ah all those happy years.
