Palworld lol

You're lucky if the game has reasonable climate progression like this. Most games the frozen zone is right next to forest zone which is right next to the volcano zone.

Honestly I'd love is someone made exactly that map to play around in in a sandbox game

Why did this immeadiately remind me of chrono trigger

[–] [email protected] 0 points 3 weeks ago* (last edited 3 weeks ago)

Well yeah. You gotta have sound in a videogame. That's a no brainer.

And although you no longer need to have your TV on channel 3 or 4, you do need to use an input for it.

As an American, now living in Canada for the past 20 years, I am really not into the winter area in games I'm currently playing PoE Deadfire Breath of Winter and I want to go back to the beaches and kill stuff :D

So, not The Long Dark.

I remember when Skyrim came out I was living in a drafty house with no heat in a snowy winter. I was wrapped in like 5 layers sitting at my PC going "Why couldn't this have been in a desert" lol

It must've been pretty immersive

Playing Fallout: New Vegas in the Texas summer will make you wish for a nuclear winter.

I hate the whole top right section. Those are usually the boring filler zones.

Sounds a little plain.

What's the difference between a gulf, a bay, and a sound?

[–] [email protected] 0 points 3 weeks ago

In regards to the pictures a gulf seems to be a coastline fed by a river. A bay being a mostly round coastline and a wound being a small coastline that gets bigger.

[–] [email protected] 0 points 3 weeks ago* (last edited 3 weeks ago) (2 children)

Size and/or shape. A gulf is bigger than a bay (e.g. compare the Gulf of Mexico to Tampa Bay), and a sound is more about the opening to the larger body of water than it is about the partially-enclosed body of water itself.

Whats the difference between a sea and an ocean

[–] [email protected] 0 points 3 weeks ago

gulf doesn't always mean bigger than bay. eg the bay of bengal is larger than the gulf of mexico

[–] [email protected] 0 points 3 weeks ago

Eh, except so many double-down (or triple) on the swamps and caves while omitting more interesting settings like glaciers, oases, rainforests, and river deltas.

No cape??!? Literally unplayable

Or go Star Wars with it and make the entire planet the same geography.

[–] [email protected] 0 points 3 weeks ago

I mean, yeah, but this is like showing a picture of the alphabet and saying "this is spot on for so many books."

[–] [email protected] 0 points 3 weeks ago

Still want to go here

[–] [email protected] 0 points 3 weeks ago

This look like Donkey King on SNES

Except there is so much more in Elden Ring!

[–] [email protected] 0 points 3 weeks ago

Yeah, Elden Ring has multiple swamps, some of which are poisonous.

why did none say Minecraft yet, this i all i could think off reading these biom names

[–] [email protected] 0 points 3 weeks ago

Minecraft is a generated world, they didn't go down a checklist while designing a singular map

[–] [email protected] 0 points 3 weeks ago

Modern? I thought this was the E.V.O. world map from the thumbnail

[–] [email protected] 0 points 3 weeks ago

Zelda did that in the 80s

[–] [email protected] 0 points 3 weeks ago (3 children)

I don’t understand why the post is supposed to be funny or critical

[–] [email protected] 0 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

It's funny that a desire for biome diversity has led in a small way to a kind of sameyness. Not so much a criticism as an amusing little irony.

[–] [email protected] 0 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

If a game is supposed to take after earth then ofc its gonna look like earth. I don't really see the point here. The last couple open world game I have played are cyberpunk and satisfactory so I definitely don't see the point here.

Meanwhile, in Star Wars:

"This is Snow World. It's all snow there. That is Wet World. The whole planet is wet. Over there is Sand World. Nothing but sand everywhere."

Behold Coruscant! The entire planet ... is a city!

[–] [email protected] 0 points 3 weeks ago

I mean, that is just a sci-fi concept. Ecumenopolis.

[–] [email protected] 0 points 3 weeks ago* (last edited 3 weeks ago) (4 children)

Behold Umate

Coruscant's tallest mountain and the only place where the planet's surface is still visible.
