WorldBuilding is a monumental task and thus world writing mistakes are unavoidable and sometimes you even just have to let them be because it turns out it's hard to sell a 500-page long dystopian book and so I'm guessing selling a 1000 page dystopian book would be even harder. But here is a video on world building mistakes anyways, because if you have the extra words and writing power to patch up issues it can lead to a better story.

I got many of these by pouring over tons and tons of threads on   / worldbuilding   so check out the subreddit if you're looking for more opinions and information on worldbuilding.

DISCLAIMER: My evolution pet peeve section doesn't really address fantasy. So just to clarify, if you have a world where people can blast fire out of their fists and visit spirit worlds I'm not really going to be annoyed that you didn't address the logistics behind how a platypus-bear came to be, because your in-universe rules provide magic as a catch-all explanation. Maybe your island-sized turtle can breathe fire because the spirit of the sea has a soft spot for the big beast and gifted the power to him and all future generations. Who am I to argue with the spirit of the sea?

Please note I have no experience at all in worldbuilding for DND so if you are a dungeons and dragons writer person this advice may not be helpful.
