The short of it: you’ve got a collection of regions with detailed cultures, natural landmarks, and a big bestiary. It’s a kind of tool kit for the GM to put a journey together!
Is this a book about worldbuilding or a Setting gazetteer instead? When I think about worldbuilding I think about tools that help the reader build their own world
I think that’s kind of a hazy line, in that whilst there is a setting it acts as a prompt structure to guide collaborative worldbuilding and exploration!
I would love to know more about your experience with the setting compendium. An example of what you can derive from it would go a long way.
