Définition et Signification de "campaign setting"

What is a "campaign setting"?

A campaign setting is a fictional world or environment created for use in tabletop role-playing games (RPGs). It provides the backdrop for the story, including details about the land, cultures, history, and rules that shape the world. Campaign settings can be used by the game master to guide the adventure, while players interact with the world through their characters. These settings became popular in RPGs like "Dungeons & Dragons," which features different settings like "Forgotten Realms" or "Eberron." Success in a campaign depends on how well players and the game master collaborate to explore and experience the world’s stories and challenges.
