It seems like the lines get blurry, there, though I'm assuming some of the characters in antonia_tiger's example are original, so that's like, what, writing an RPF with OCs, kinda?
If we're talking about fantasy worlds that are further removed from our own, though, where the way it functions and the people in it are almost completely made up whole cloth by the author, would you say that's more satisfying than playing in someone else's world? Or simply a different kind of satisfaction? I figured you were a good person to ask, since you've done both.
(I've written some original stories, but that was a while ago and I'm not sure how I would compare the two.)
