Have you heard of Polish city of Krakow?
I have. Never been there, though.
i didnt even listen to the video
And why would you? 🤣
I WAS going to scroll on by, but i did not... Because reasons...
And very valid reasons they were.
Wildheart=Totem Barb
🤣🤣🤣the dragon tibbies
I thought this was a video about a Polish swamp until I saw the spiky turtle lol. Cool worldbuilding!
Glad you enjoyed it.
There is city called krakow in Poland BTW (like big [for Polish standards] samewhat well known city [like secend most well known Polish city])
This video is a gift.😂
Wait! You said water?
Dude this is awesome.
Thanks
Sounds like fun
Just going for a roll
Are the commercials good?
Is it televised?
This is really good. I’m glad I stumbled upon this video. Underrated for sure. I’m gonna add this to my worldbuilding playlist.
Thanks. Glad I could offer a little inspiration.
Mixed up is normal for me.
Rabbit techno armor!
Love your video the sound quality was quite nice and your tips are very helpful for me as a new DM thank you for doing such a great job with your content.
Thank you. My audio isn't always the best or even mid. Appreciate you liked it.
You are a very underrated TH-camr If you keep up the good work and you will be well on your way your advice is very helpful for a new dnd like me thank you
Glad I could help
This might be useful for my universe where a world war happens in the 1920s and nukes are made and the entirety of humanity? Gone, reduced to atoms.
Who's left to enjoy the vistas? Mutants? Aliens? Smart cockroaches?
@@dresdenstale2253 Mosquitoes, and flies, the 2 most annoying beings in the universe
keep going man, you're doing great
Omfg what do you use for your ai art? This chicken is fvcking awesome
Pretty sure this is the Copilot app. I also use PerchanceAI online.
What a strange video
This is a wonderful video to watch and even better to just listen to and take it all in. Thank you. ❤
Thank you. Glad you enjoyed it.
Bro move the camera away from your face
But, I look so good. 😜
Dioramas?! Is this foreshadowing something? 🤔
The idea of naming places after PC is pretty cool, I think I'll steal that for my next campaign!
Glad I could help. Thanks for listening
>Watch a video about worldbuilding hoping to get ideas for my own creative process >"Copilot make me an NPC" Oh
Lots of assets out there. TH-cam videos, AI, DnD Beyond. Find what works for you.
Eberron is one of my favorites. Mostly because I love the mix of high fantasy and magical technology. I already own this book in 5e and would absolutely recommend it for anyone else with similar interests.
It's a great feel, usually ignored in table top fantasy
I've read through Eberron a couple of times and i really like a lot of the elements in it. I'm currently DMing a dungeon of the mad mage campaign which is taking up a lot of my spare time (many changes to the core module have been made) but one day I'd love to give Eberron a go!
It seems like a really fun setting to commit to.
A continent sized demiplane drifting through the Astral Sea with its own weird celestial objects sounds cool. I'm interested in hearing more about its people and their environment. Subscribed!
I follow up a bit in my last video, though the strangness factor isn't played up much. I'm planning on setting more episodes here. Glad you enjoyed it.
Because the World Building must be done! ❤. Wonderful video. 😊
Thank you, and you're right. The best reason to world build is world building.
@@dresdenstale2253 absolutely 💯 ❤️
This was the first of your videos that has shown up in my feed. I subd and I'll check out your channel.
Thanks for giving me a try.
Forests!
It's on the list. I'll move it up a notch for ya.
Immediate sub
Thanks!
Man, I wish I could weave words together to paint a picture like you do. 😩
Images are courtesy of Pixabay lite on this one, but I can take credit for the script. Thank you!
Oh oh do the Arctic tundra / taiga! Oh or scrublands!
Consider them added to the list of future videos
What's a weather encounter?? I've never heard of this! How do you run one? 😮
Usually weather events are pretty basic, just costing time, but they can get as spicy as the story requires. Sounds like it might be a future video.
Giant moocow!!
This is super cool! I really enjoy your narrative style. Couldnt ask for more other than perhaps a more consistent audio quality. Looking forward to more content from you! Just subscribed :)
Thanks for the sub. By the way, you'll be totally impressed with the audio quality of this video, when you hear the old stuff. Lol
@@dresdenstale2253 hahaha, up is the only good way I suppose! :D
It's actually a bit more interesting on an ecological level -- you shouldn't just put megafauna into your fantasy grasslands because they're cool... If you have grasslands, biologically you OUGHT put megafauna there, because in real life grasslands are formed by megafauna grazing/trampling anything larger than grass and small brush. Without those animals, the plant ecosystem would gradually become dominated by large plants that can shade-out their competition, like trees, and the grassland would eventually become a forest over time. Animals and plants don't *just* adapt to their ecosystems but they influence and change those ecosystems as well... The biome is really an interaction between all of its components, both living and non-living
Great points. I completely skipped over this aspect of plains and the sometimes thin line that keeps them from becoming forest. It's definitely a two way street. Luckily, I can make up my oversight as I'm planning on producing a few follow up exercises for this video. Hope you check it out.
@@dresdenstale2253 I really enjoy thinking about world-building, especially the back-and-forth interactions that come from thinking "how would this environment affect the plants and animals and people that lived there? how would those plants and animals and people affect the environment?" and that sort of dynamic... Like, a fun example you mentioned in this video -- a culture of bird-people in a plains biome... they may develop an advanced civilization and culture without ever doing the things that we normally consider fundamental to culture forming in the first place, things like pottery and the wheel may never be invented at all. Why would you need roads or wheels for logistics at all if you can fly? Perhaps this culture took advantage of abundant fibrous grasses and developed sophisticated weaving and net-making techniques instead of ever turning to wet clay for their storage needs (it would be a lot easier for two bird-people to share a load by carrying a net between them, rather than trying to fly with ceramic pottery haha)... thinking things through like that can lead to some pretty "fantastical" deviations from what we normally see in our world that are totally alien and different, but they still feel consistent and reasonable rather than feeling like the world-building is just someone shouting out "HEY DRAGONS ARE COOL LET'S PUT DRAGONS THERE"
I have learned a thing today, thank you!
I was so excited for this video when I saw the title but wow was this video so painfully insulting to those of us who live, work, admire and desire the great plains. I hope that you will consider trying again. As a channel seeking to speak on the 'basics of world-building' you really should acknowledge the goodness of each terrain you speak on. Think about it, if the inhabitants in your world don't care about or respect their territory, why would most of them choose to live, build, and as always seems to happen with humans - go to war for their land? Speaking of the land, you barely acknowledged the vast variability of the prairies; for the sake of attempted brevity I will mention that it is more than shrubs and short-grasses (though those are wonderful) there is also savana, bluffs and tallgrasses (tallgrasses which can easily hide an average height person) I respect your feelings regarding the great plains, however should you choose to try again (as I hope you do) I encourage you to speak to/do research about those who *do* recognize the majesty, wonder, importance, and power of the prairies; native americans, homesteaders, heck even many of our storm chasers etc etc. I grew up in kansas (whose topography across the whole state is more varied than I think you realize), and i am here to tell you there is MUCH to cherish about the great plains. As a wise person once said "anyone can love a mountain, it takes a soul to love a prairie". Have a wonderful day!!
You're absolutely right about how the biome varies. Unfortunately in a short video, there's a need to focus more, I'd sometimes like. Didn't mean to sound disparaging, I loved my time in Oklahoma City. People don't get how meteorologists and storm chasers become local celebrities. I still follow several on Facebook. I promise to be more positive in the follow up videos over the next few weeks. Thanks for the comment. Have a great day.
Coming from a city slicker, I can definitely say that even this "little bit" (as I suspect you might call it) has still opened my eyes to a lot of new ways to look at grasslands. Usually, I just skip over them as much as possible and go to (what I've traditionally considered as) "more interesting biomes". So as someone who *doesn't* hail from this biome, thanks for the info :3
