The Immovable Autism
Which is better and why?
I like the freedom of creating my own setting, and I can never be completely happy with one I didn't make. On the other hand, it seems like it'd be a lot easier for players to come up with backstories and goals for their characters if they had a lot of information to base it on, and I'm not one of those DMs who write up dozens and dozens of pages for his own campaign. But on the other hand, my experience with players so far has been that they just want to roll dice and don't care nearly as much about all that stuff as I do - if they had any amount of creativity, they'd be the ones DMing. What do you guys think?
