[QUOTE="Emerikol, post: 8232029, member: 6698278"] You know it's funny but I do have a unique set of skills and talents. I am a computer programmer by trade and probably better at it than I am at being a DM and I'm pretty proud of my DMing ability. I think the DMing was earned the hard way and programming just came naturally. Maybe I will design an online world and charge a subscription one day. I could combine my love of programming and world building. I could have forums for people to discuss the world. Maybe every five years or so I drop a new campaign world but keep the old one. Just keep creating new worlds over time. What would I provide? 1. Well a detailed world map (perhaps it's a big continent) 2. God's and Goddesses including well detailed Religions. 3. An in game explanation for magic 4. National politics including major NPCs. 5. Details maps and key to the cities of the world. Think Ptolus but world wide. 6. Wandering monster table roll by simply clicking on a hex. 7. If you are looking to find something you could have this automated. 8. A unique but interesting cosmology. 9. Select your system. (D&D Xe, OSR, etc...) 10. A world that could change over time by advancing the calendar. So you could pick the year and the map would change to that year. 11. Maybe over time I'd keep dropping sandbox locations with greater detailed areas. I wouldn't do the adventures I don't think but I might include adventure ideas that DMs could expand upon. 12. Maybe a dungeon placer that takes modules from existing games and places them somewhere in the world with notes on how to modify them to fit the world. I mean it would be a monumental undertaking to really provide the kind of world I'd want to provide but it would be useful. [/QUOTE]
