the shanty town was absolutely fantastic.

Rooftops have the lawlessness of the rinth mixed with magick defenses of the city. The rooftops are not perfect but the proximity to important amenities like apartments make it more livable than rinth. Not to mention proximity to people that arent always hidden. The lack of a rooftop tavern like the mantis or black market shops are some things that i would love to see.

Unless you are full member of rinth clan or just stick to its taverns, the rinth plays similar to the wilderness minus movement penalties. Fun to visit but never stay.This is not a bad thing and more 'city' wilderness like the rinth are really important for the area to have. The removal of under tuluk impacted the experience in the north negatively regardless of all its issues.

I lack the appropriate level of literacy skills to describe the experience in Redstorm in a way that would do it proper justice.

Still looking for some more volunteers, for this extremely rewarding role that totally makes everyone your friend.

(It also goes a long way towards the Community karma point).

I loved Whira because of it's emptiness. It's exactly what I envision an elemental plane of existence dedicated to air /would/ be. There shouldn't be anything there. It was like - a Zen Den. The very thing for my whiran.

I think the rinth would be great if it had more of an ecosystem and throughput.

Personally I don't really have a preference for regions,

I can play anywhere there are collaborators to work with. I think the Outpost full time is the last stop on my bucket list though.

I prefer the Gol Krathu. I like the Sun King, and the Legion because I love being a loyal soldier. There is so much more to explore and the different areas make for a better play area IMO. The Pymlithe groves are one of my favourite places and I remember going there on a "date" with a Faithful Lady one time, as well as the edge of the Yen-el-Tun hunting herbs for the Grey Hunt and coming across elder tandu. There's so much more beauty in what RP you can come up with there.

The Vrun Driath can be so boring. It needs more landmarks. Oasis. Desert Plantlife. Rock Formations. Underground Riverbeds. Large Cave Systems. Mines/Quarries. Villages. Ruins. High vantage points that rooms surrounding echo to the one spot (places that could allow for tactical military advantage). And so on.

I love the Westside rinth and almost always ended up gravitating there. I loved to just roll up a scrappy, loyalish underling. Possibly like Kavrick said, maybe it feels homely because it's kinda British?? A little sad I probably won't get that experience again but it's worth it! I also loved Luirs before it got 'downgraded' and had a wonderful time playing tribal indie in the tent camp, that was such a good time and dynamic.

I like Allanak. The theme appeals a lot and I tend to gravitate toward zealot like characters in most games that can really push theme :P I tried a Vru'Rihali but they were too nice and my character was a bit lackluster. A lot of my clan mates had very different schedules too. I had fun on my Tuluki Bynner until she was recruited to the dark side. She lied and basically went awol to chill with super badguys only to get double-beetled the second she went out exploring alone. </3 But I think so far the rinth is my favorite, though I was a celf toward the end of the game so finding rp could be tough. I haven't been able to play it for long. I'm interested to see if its much a no rp death fest as I've heard when its populated. I really like the guild and have never been in it :P

The ease of getting permanently dead and story progression just dissolving in this game is my number one meh, so I will likely always be attracted to city characters. That way some random npc megacreature doesn't delete me as easy. Would rather die to pcs or shenanigans.

All of those but the plane of Whira. TBH after seeing some of the stuff for the other elemental planes, I was a bit saddened at the possibilities there. Like, it made sense for what it was. But. I really wished there was more to do there. The east past the Thornlands is one of the most intriguing places to me. It's much smaller than the bowl above the Canyon but, the implications of the rooms that are described is fantastic. The diversity of places in the bowl as well as the exotic npcs are both a big draw and interest, too, yeah.
