179: Player Umwelt
from Dekahedron Fannish Podcast Hosted by J.P. Gill
Let's talk about Player Umwelt. It;s what I call the idea that the world we live in shapes the way we see everything else—including our games. I'll explain how our own umwelt makes it hard to truly embrace a different reality and how that affects everything from medieval towns to sci-fi space maps. I'll also share a few examples and a final takeaway about managing your campaign's "special effects budget" so that players have fun without being bogged down by a world that's too alien.
