    As a non-American who didn’t grow up with imperial, I still prefer it for fantasy. Metric sounds too modern and scientific. Also I feel like I have more room to fudge distances because it already sounds imprecise.

    Would be a fun bit to make the players use metric in a magitech world though.

          In the UK the government was considering switching back to imperial (just to pretend we’re not in Europe). Honestly I think they didn’t because otherwise they’d get too many milkshakes thrown at them.
