    Whoops. In the models, I deleted the title of model name #3 too fast. It’s the world as an antagonist.

      id imagen that intellect and philosophy is very stimulating as a perspective understanding nature and oneness and that gives spiritual connection example a pig did not have a Human interpreter translate for it to solve its problem , or able to increase the size of a Pig or horse dog donkey , or ask or make another plant or fruit , after all worse case scenario is that no Supernatural Human Super wizard should be left unattended or alone with no companion. lmao , we don't need whether outburst just cuz the super wiz cant cry the same . ty fir this vid

    Scavengers reign is also a good example of a sentient world setting that you might like. Awesome video!

    I think a society where people give up their individual self to be part of a hive mind is doomed to fail.
    And while I like the detail that went into Pandora I do see flaws in the story.
    I never really created a sentient world. The most I’ve done is try to work in a god who oversees the world.
    So how does the Matrix fail to qualify for example # 4?

    • @JustInTimeWorlds
      @JustInTimeWorlds  2 месяца назад +2

      ooooh, the matrix is a great match. And framing it from the perspective of the AI's life when it's connected to the planet so intensely creates some interesting questions about the nature of life :D

    Code Geass has a collective unconscious "deity" that is also in charge of passively maintaining creation/reality.

    #4 - Maybe Dune? Not exactly a world but the Kwisatz Haderach unlocks ancestral memories. And I also assumed that in Avatar's Pandora, the Navi connect to the sacred tree to access ancestral memories or consciousness.

    What do you think of the idea of a ascendant planet working with the colonizers it willingly produces what they need and they protect it

    • @JustInTimeWorlds
      @JustInTimeWorlds  19 дней назад +1

      It could make for an interesting setup, depending on what the people are protecting the planet from. If it’s warriors protecting from warriors…. 😂 that’s just feudalism 🤭😂

    @bluejayblaze1180 18 дней назад

    Hmmmm...
    This makes me wonder if I should try and give my current world some level of sentience.
    The magic system I've been putting together is rooted in the concept of animism, the idea that everything, even things that aren't alive in the traditional/scientific sense, has a soul. With that in mind, it could make sense for the planet on which the story takes place would have some sort of sentience, although I'd have to think for a while about what that might look like.

    • @JustInTimeWorlds
      @JustInTimeWorlds  18 дней назад

      It's always worth considering, even if you don't implement it. It might spark some good ideas in a sideways manner. And thinking doesn't cost anything :)

    I don't know if we would miss the concept of privacy if we were born into Gaia, but the moment that power was abused it would likely come into question.

    One scenario is you can have humans on a Ascension planet but the press it with highly sophisticated signal jammers

    “I see you, Asimov fan. Believe me, I SEE YOU.”
    Never has any expression been so situationally specific, so superficially placating, and yet so intensely passive aggressive all at once.

    Origins matter. We humans are individuals and as such our cultures and societies have grown and changed because we allow individual creativity.
