I like to do world building (it started as a backdrop for a story I wrote but it grew to be mostly the goal itself, creating a world), it’s fun and takes me to a lot of topics I don’t know very much. One critical point in my world building is the make up of gods, deities, planes and so on; the metaphysical components of the world.

I wanted to share that Pillars of Eternity just threw a big wrench into all of that. Works of all kinds usually provide some inspiration, a little idea or an interesting concept, but then Pillars’ concepts on souls and gods really changed my views and I feel like I need to redo everything again!

It’s good but also annoying, in a way! D:

I feel like I need to do some soul searching (someone get me a Cipher) to find, figure out and / or decide on the actual themes of the universe I’m creating; it’s been mostly a melting pot of various ideas I like in many different forms so far, which makes it rather directionless...

In those case it really is the easier solution to fire up Deadfire or watch something than try to make sense of all this mess haha
