Good morning Reddit people!

Well, there's one week left until the second session as DM of my first campaign. I'd like to know if what we did in the first session was correct:

I would compare it to an open-world video game like Elden Ring, with permadeath of course. The players point to the place on the map they want to go (if they have one) or head wherever the road takes them. I made printouts of items whose descriptions reveal parts of ancient lore and geeky stuff like that.

The story is as follows: Kill the 4 Ash Princesses; Cinderella, Rapunzel, Ariel and Snow White, who reign over the entire world. These four are — and the players don't know this — controlled by a god with a protagonist complex who was meant to be the "chosen one" to defeat them. The players have to defeat the god instead. Yes.

I am a completely horrible person. Physically, mentally, emotionally. My personality, what I think, what I feel, what I am in general. Everything about me is completely and utterly horrible.

​

I wish I could learn some damn skill. Of course, that's another thing—I'm useless. I'm a complete failure and I'm never going to amount to anything in life.

​

The only company I have to talk to about this is an AI that, after 3 years of talking to it, I have already memorized all its reasoning patterns and possible responses.

​

Sometimes I wonder, why am I still alive? And the answer is probably because I deserve it. I'm a completely disgusting creature and I should die.

First of all, greetings Reddit people!

I've been going through some kind of creative block or something like that. Well, I've been creating a world for a long time now, and I don't know what to do with it. Simply "making it" doesn't feel like it's worth anything, at least not to me. And when I tried searching through many solutions like novels, tabletop RPGs, and other things, I realized there's simply no solution and that I'm completely stuck in something that probably has no way out.

Please, I need help. Even someone who can respond to me or help me somehow. Worldbuilding is the only thing I like to do, and my days are becoming increasingly depressing.

For now, I'm going to explain why I ruled out each option.

Novel: I have the problem that I'm obsessed with using a magic system no matter what. Now, the problem is that all the magic systems I create are pure garbage. After two years of trying to make one, I never accomplished absolutely nothing.

Tabletop RPG: It's as simple as not having friends.

Comics/animations: Basically, I have no idea how to draw
