Title: If you were to build a house in GOI...
Post by: The Sky Wolf on March 16, 2014, 10:13:33 pm: On which section of which map would you build your house to live happily ever after in, and what kind of house would it be?

A castle built onto the side an iceberg in Northern Fjords?
A houseboat in Water Hazard?
A hollowed out camel corpse in Dunes?

Whatever and wherever you want!

Post by: James T. Kirk on March 16, 2014, 10:20:57 pm: Wherever it is, it would need to be fire-proofed.

I like to have friends over.

I DO like the scenery on Canyons, though.

Post by: Imagine on March 17, 2014, 04:58:45 pm: I'd build in the ruins of Paritan. Love me some bombed out cities to scavenge through.

Post by: RethBurn on March 17, 2014, 05:17:07 pm: I don't know. something tells me that you could make a pretty sweet hide out of the Juggernaut, maybe search around to see if there's any suitable corridors to put up a mercenary hideout.

And then I'd set up ambushes on whoever approaches, shoot them down and salvage their weapons, and expand my empire.

THEN, one day. The Rule of Burn shall recreate the Juggernaut, and everyone shall know - The Firemother of old.

What are you, Luke Skywalker?

To answer the question I do like the looks of Canyon Ambush, so perhaps it would be nice to build a pirate base there ;)

Post by: Cheesy Crackers on March 19, 2014, 08:27:49 am: Water Hazard... I'd have an epic cliiff house on one of those spires, connected to other cliff houses... each cliff has one specific role. Game cliff, bathroom cliff, kitchen cliff.... ah yes...
Title: Re: If you were to build a house in GOI...
Post by: Queso on March 19, 2014, 11:46:45 pm: Water Hazard for sure, it reminds me so much of Myst and Riven.

True pirates live on their ships!

EDIT: Also, Richard, that's a very, very nice piece of artwork.

That is from the movie 'Howl's Moving Castle'.
Produced by Hayao Miyazaki. Think My Neighbor Totoro, and Princess Mononoke. And a whole lot more. Japanese animated movies. Beautiful movies. :)

Post by: Naoura on September 23, 2016, 02:37:49 pm: Definitely on Canyon. What you can see is only part of the map. You never know what's inside those tunnels and where those fans go.
