The one I used just makes a globe, I still wanted to sort out the details of everything myself, even though I never get around to it

The problem for me is I'm not skilled enough in art or cartography to make a map or a map that's at all convincing. So far I've mostly focused on creating cultures, creatures, and landmarks, then placing then in general areas that makes sense to me. I'll hopefully be able to refine the map as I go on.

my problem is I know my limitations; I can't create names or personalties. and I tend to get distracted in back-stories, oops

which sucks, because I have alot of worlds I try to create

Everyone has their limitations. I sure do. Just gotta work on those aspects you're bad at. I can only write things down so my main limitation is not knowing any artistic skill.
