Title: [SHOWOFF]Haradon-Lightshire and the Road of the Weary Traveler
Post by: Bardh on July 27, 2017, 03:24:51 pm

This is another part of Haradon, this time Lightshire and the Road of the Weary Traveler. Lightshire has a pivotal role in the war against the corruption because of its location inside the corrupted areas. Lightshire right now is the only active town in the Plains of Haradon and is the center of resistance.

You can see the pics at:

You know I always like to point out what would I suggest author to improve. I'm sad. I've got nothing to say :S :D.

I love especially that skybox btw.

It does feel a bit flat, but the atmosphere is amazing

Yes, I get these kind of suggestions quite often about the zone being too flat. In reality it is actually quite flat, the thing is that in this project I've been trying to make the zones a bit more realistic, even though with the WoW graphics is quite hard and flat zones seem a lot like empty but in reality I like open and wide areas and that is what I've been trying to do here.Blizzard zones are usually more complicated in order to add diversity to the land and make it more interesting but I still like to stick to the reality even though sometimes my zones do not look realistic I do my best to achieve it.

Gotta love the stormy sky. The zone reminds me of the place where the human and orc fight in warcraft 3 trailer.

Unlike him, I prefer flat zones, which unfortunately there arent lots of in wow

Thanks for the feedback! I also like open areas, in wow there aren't many because they make the zone look quite flat and a bit empty, thats why the terrain always ought to have some variations, little hills and so on.
