  Having Aphantasia doesn’t mean that a person has no imagination, he just has no inner eye, no way to see the imagination in his mind.

  I know that because I have lots of imagination but have Aphantasia. World building for roleplay and stories is where I am really good, as long as I don’t have to do anything with a visual component like drawing

    There are different forms of aphantasia. I have to try really hard to visualize something in my mind and often have to go into excruciating details to have a clear visualization. Something like TTRPG is unplayable for me because either I drag the entire party into mostly useless details (and we spend at least half an hour in one room) or I play like I have literally no senses. I could just be a talking head in someone’s bag.

    In my case I’m pretty close to “no imagination”.

      Yeah it is, like most stuff with the brain, a spectrum from low to high Aphantasia.

      I can’t visualize anything in my mind, I can describe what I know or what I make up but that’s it a list of information or details, when it comes to world building highly imaginative details and information, but I have no clue how it really looks like. That’s why I love AI art generators, I can input all my imaginary details into the prompt and it then emulates my missing inner eye. Something I never could on my own, how should I draw something when I have only words to describe it? For me AI Art tools are a godsend, a pacemaker for my inner eye so to speak.
