[QUOTE="Lanefan, post: 6290168, member: 29398"] You must have much different players, in style, than I do. Put a dragon in front of my lot and the first question isn't "what does it eat" or "why is it here", it's "how are we going to kill it" quickly followed by "where is its lair". As for setting-building, I build on the game world's history rather than its economics. Gonzo (the concept) has every real place being in any game. Gonzo the muppet is a different story, and not very relevant here. But gonzo dungeoning doesn't have to involve demonic clowns and pink dragons, just an all-round attitude of let's get out there and giv'er; kill the monsters/bad guys, take their stuff, and if we happen to learn something as a side effect so much the better. Internal logic is useful, yes, but much more important for play is that whatever internal logic is present be backed up by rock-solid internal consistency.
