What is your favourite location in a game and why?
Mine is the Bloom from Torment: Tides of Numenera. I love the fleshy bits. I love the everyday gruesome horror becoming an everyday thing for the people who live there. I love the literally organic surroundings. It's just by far my favorite location in any game ever. :)
Q3DM17, "The Longest Yard". I've fought so many 1v1s there, it's one of the few fps maps that still regularly turns up in my dreams despite my haven't having Quaked for like 10 years now.
The All-Star Rest Area in Super Smash Bros Brawl. Extremely calming and oddly serene. Giving the player time to catch a breath between the breakneck All-Star fights. Stay as long as you want, and the music was very nice.
Fallout 2's Enclave oil rig (Poseidon?) is pretty cool. I like how the guys who built the original oil rig put spooky faces on the big pipes, really shows an appreciation to their craft.
Outside of whiterun with some graphics mods in skyrim. It's pretty. The night sky and foliage is really nice. Not much of a gamer anymore but I habitually return to skyrim.
I cannot wait for Starfield just to get the experience of wandering around like in Skyrim... but I've seen the minimal requirements and them using procedural generation and now I'm worried for the experience. :(
The "Bubble-Blowing Baby Hunt" level in the SpongeBob movie game. The music fits, it's not too hard to run through, and Patrick's moveset is so much better than in the previous game.
This place in bloodborne
Although the whole fishing hamlet has a special place in my heart, from when i ised to read cosmic horror to fall asleep as a kid.
The Floating Magical Kingdom of Zeal from 12,000 BC in Chrono Trigger. They could achieve almost anything, but their greed, prejudice, and arrogance doomed them to a terrible fate that nearly killed all of humanity.
Good question. I like Beach Bowl Galaxy in Super Mario Galaxy a lot. Love the tropical/beach setting combined with the space theme. I bet it would be awesome to lay on a cozy little beach that’s inside a big orb floating through space. Doesn’t get more relaxing than that.
