MOB Posted March 23, 2018 Share Posted March 23, 2018 (edited) So much for us getting accused of "lack of realism", just because Greg Stafford's World of Glorantha really is the flat top of a floating cube, under a sky that's an actual dome... https://www.thepoke.co.uk/2018/03/22/guy-makes-role-playing-games-criticised-map-new-orleans-unrealistic-gone-viral/ Edited March 23, 2018 by MOB 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jeffjerwin Posted March 23, 2018 Share Posted March 23, 2018 The mythic quality of Glorantha's physics is the best reason to shut down "realism" experts. I love it. But I write poetry for fun, so there you are. The bridges of Kralorela kind of remind me of the roads of New Orleans... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GianniVacca Posted March 23, 2018 Share Posted March 23, 2018 Well, the USofA is a fantasy place, sort of. Most people I know are only familiar with it via comics and films. 1 1 Quote 「天朝大國」，https://rpggeek.com/rpgitem/92874/celestial-empire 很有意思: http://celestialempire.blogspot.com/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jenx Posted March 23, 2018 Share Posted March 23, 2018 I still am not entirely convinced New Orleans isn't a fictional place, and these maps are not helping in convincing me otherwise 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JonL Posted March 26, 2018 Share Posted March 26, 2018 The answer to most of those inexplicable civil engineering choices is "corruption and/or nepotism in government contracts." Louisiana is a symphony of graft. Why build something simple and adequate when your cousin's crew can get paid to do it the long way (or, classically speaking, the Long way)? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
