[QUOTE="aco175, post: 9671135, member: 27385"] I'm not sure I would like to run or play in a sandbox where everything is being created on the fly. There should be the large blocks in place, at least for something more than a 1-shot or intro game. There should be the idea of a village with an inn and temple and a few NPC names. There things and people can be expanded on as they are interacted with with the smaller blocks. If the innkeeper names James suddenly had an eyepatch when the PCs first meet him, fine. If he suddenly has a problem with rats in the basement, fine. Even if there was no basement before, fine. But there should be the expectation of a village someplace with an inn. I know many including myself can make up a lot of stuff, but is it the best or even the funnest way? Is it fair the the players and DM? [/QUOTE]
