A few techniques Nick uses:
One technique I have used is to set your game in a different (earlier) time period, thereby getting around a lot of current details. A lot can happen in four hundred years. It can lead to a lot of work just getting your head around the idea that, for example, there is no Lunar Empire, the Oceans are Closed,only Inhumans live in the Cursed Land of Dragons, and trolls rule Esrolia, but there is scope for stuff that no one is going to condradict, publish, or Greg in any way. In some ways there is a lot more to do initially (getting the 'current' situation understood) but it does mean you can Focus on the Good bits and is a Project and really decide a lot yourself.
