On the note of "kitchen sink" I will say that it IS a little weird having automatons running around a world with shortswords and mages but Paizo found a way to make it work well together without feeling unbalanced!

I find the kitchen sink approach great when you focus on a single part of the world. It allows the group/party to focus on that aspect and play what they like. I find it to be a little distracting for a globetrotting campaign. It’s like you don’t have enough time to get used to the culture of one place before you’re moving into another. You eventually get ‘used’ to it, and don’t take time to worry about culture or get excited about it because you’ll be moving on anyway. Golarion isn’t my favorite campaign setting, but that doesn’t mean it’s bad and there’s lots of things I like. I think less can be more though - if you’re a new GM talk to players and see what they like and focus on ONE region.

If you want to take time in a specific area of... well ANY fantasy world your play TTRPGs in then DO IT! It's not the games responsibility to tell you where you should play or for how long you should play there! The game just gives you the information, and you do with it what you choose! Golarion is one of FAVORITE worlds, especially if we're just counting TTRPGs! Never has a world felt so good that it pulls me in to actually DESIRE to play in it! Usually I think about using a published setting because I don't want to take the time to make up my own stuff as a whole, or I know the game won't go long before the people I had crying about wanting to play get bored, or something crazy happens in life with one or more of the people in the game! It's almost always the person who was crying the most about playing that gets bored after about two or three sessions that drops first though! My recent game is the only one that life events actually were the legitimate reason it ended.

@@JacksonOwex unless you’re not given the option. There are plenty of modules with set paths that move around regardless of wants and desires - and there are DMs out there that simply don’t have time to plan for anything else, and there’s nothing wrong with that. My comment still stands regarding the setting trying to encapsulate too much in a relatively small area. It’s a good setting, and every setting has a weakness.

Also, what's the point of having "the kitchen sink" when you only focus on ONE part of it?! Why have the rest when you aren't going to bother with it?! That's what most D&D players have been complaining about with 5E, it's been ONLY Forgotten Realms and even then it's been pretty much ONLY the Sword Coast part of that, which IS large but is barely anything compared to the WHOLE of the world! There's also QUITE a diversity of cultures in JUST the Sword Coast but apparently it has become "ra..." a "bad thing" to have different cultures, everything, everywhere has to be the same!

Well at least a world you may explore for hundreds years and still unable to truly say you saw it all. If I was some mad-rad-lad-adventurer, I would probably roam around northern part of Avistan. Crashed spaceship with murder-bots and technocultists, infinite horde of demons, and worse of all - Russia? Exciting. Maybe also visit Nidal. After Warhammer Fantasy Golarion looks almost cozy.

Golarion doesn't really take place in a specific year, not as a whole at least! Each adventure(single module, Adventure path, Society adventures) takes places in the 4700 year of whatever 20-- year it was in the real world when it was first published! So Rise of the Runelords(first PF1 Adventure Path) takes place about a decade before the Age of Ashes(the first PF2 Adventure Path)!

This is correct. I didn't want to get into all the details of it in this video as it does get a little confusing when you factor in events that happened in Rasputin Must Die.

Ive always found it hilarious people call Golarion a kitchen sink setting like its a bad thing, when it literally just has the variety of cultures you'd expect to see on a populated world. A monoculture is what's really ridiculous in my eyes, especially when it spans an entire planet. Its why I find it so hard to get into sci-fi, its immersion breaking for me. Regional cultures arent just a human thing, even cetaceans and other primates have them.

I agree. But I know it is a problem for some people so I wanted to be upfront and transparent about it. I think some people have a problem with it because they don't factor in the distances between these regions. Short of magic, you can't be in Ustalav one day and in Tian Xia the next. Instead, most tables will spend the entire campaign in one region.

I ABSOLUTELY love Golarion! It's the only published world that I am PULLED toward playing in, and that's because of how diverse it is! If I ever feel like I am getting to much culture and diversity I can walk outside! It's VERY white and "'Murican" where I live, and no, it's actually not the Southern US(which may surprise some people), Upper Great Plains/Midwest area!

Love the content... but please look up a Jason Bulmahn video and listen to how he pronounces Golarion. =) There's an A in the middle of the word.
