What still gets me about worldbuilding is the connections.

How a river changes a town, a law changes a family, or a border changes a childhood. You change one thing, and it doesn’t stay contained. It reaches outward.

That’s the part I love. Not just drawing maps or designing systems, but tracing the consequences. Seeing how the world pushes back.

I’ve been doing this for years now, and it still fascinates me.
