ALGORITHMS, MY FRIEND. ALGORITHMS. Old-school RPGs are full of them, they're called "tables". You can do a LOT with some dry random table output and a tiny bit of skullsweat fitting it all together. Hang a few subtables on the Traveller system generation matrix, you've got yourself a galaxy. It just depends on how tightly you wanna focus. Well yeah but to make it more than a bunch of pseudorandom tiles, you need a lot of writing and content! Pfft - robust enough generation routines don't NEED writing. (ROADS?!? WHERE WE'RE GOING, etc.) See, Dwarf Fortress adventure mode. Dudes sitting around writing Fedex quests is a total waste of manpower.
