I for one will forever remember Athkatla as one of the greatest locales in a game I've ever had the pleasure to explore, and i am adamant that Project Eternity will shoot for the moon and attempt to give us another diverse, enthralling city to explore at our leisure. What i am interested about though, is in the possibility of a wide open, unique rendition of a city with the influence of one of the other main races in the story. Athkatla was amazing, and alive with content, but it was mainly a "Human City". Elves were sparse, dwarves were even less than sparse, and i believe there was only one gnome in the whole City that i could remember "Jan Jansen" (Whom i loved ). Why not have spralling deep ancient dwarven cities like Moria from LOTR, only NOT have it been a dungeon for once? The cities for other races in these games tend to always be hostile, barren areas where enemies swarm instead of actual Hubs for the player to experience what a city Ruled by the Elves, Dwarves or even Godlike races would be like. I probably havent played enough D&D based, or Fantasy based games to say they all work this way but quite a few do. I know with Obsidian we are all in good hands with this game but i just want to give out ideas i feel would take this Project from amazing to Legendary. I want more than a 10/10 for Project Eternity, I want Game of the Year in 2014
Cities like this would be welcome:
It doesn't feel so Human, but that's where it gets its charm.
