I've had a few ideas for new locations after you go to Japan. I know Gail is working on China currently, and I'm not sure what she has in mind, but I thought making a post like this would be helpful.
For my location idea, I think Australia and Germany would be some interesting places to start new missions.

Well, when I think of locations of course the "classics" would be cool, meaning Eastern Europe and Transylvania =D But also Africa and the Caribbean might be interesting, some old myths there as well ... Or the South American Jungle ....

Specifically in the Caribbean, Haiti would be cool...Because the origin of the Zombie and Voodoo in that area.

since you said australia the first time and had the correct spelling, i think we've all got the message. plus you kinda acted like a dingo the second time you said australia

I was referring to what Lioncourt said. He clearly thought I said Austria.

Take it easy on him. I don't think English is his first language.
However, this is begining to get off topic. Are there any other suggestions from players out there?

maybe so. first off austria and australia have 2 entirely different pronunciations in german and secondly i know a girl who's german who speaks very good english, even though it's not her first language and she knows the difference between the two countries we are discussing.
oh and uh.. zomb, check out my player suggestion by searching the tag "lycans in bloodlines". you should find it quite interesting.:D

how about the virgin islands?
or the rain forest were we could meet a long lost vampire with a crazy name who kills people for the fun and you get to choose to help him in his quest for world domination or kill him taking over his clan and therfore owning his mansion deep in the hidden caves of the amazon rain forest?
i should create my own game hahahaha

First of all, I am female - Luciana is obviously a female name ;)
Second, what makes you think I understood Austria instead of Australia? I didn't say (write) a word about either of these countries. :confused:
Third, yes, I am German, but I do understand the difference between those and have been to both.

You should make your own game! But I think the idea you proposed here is interesting, althought I'm not sure how it would be incorperated because right now we're at the point in Japan where you're about to go to Hong Kong to start your search for the sold artifacts in the tomb...I don't think they would end up on Easter Island or in a remote location in the Amazon.

I'm not familiar with Thailand's lore. Do they have vampire, zombie, or werewolf legends associated with and old religion or native people?

I think Ireland would be a cool place to visit... Or manybe even Norway or Sweden.

I think Ireland would be a cool place to visit... Or manybe even Norway or Sweden.I guess I didn't state myself clearly enough...I kind of wanted suggestions for after Hong Kong... I think for those locations, you would have to put them in the middle of the game, and that might mess people up if they are traveling and something in the middle of the game is being updated.
Silent Interloper
03-08-2009, 04:35 AM
Why would Ireland, Norway, or Sweden be in the middle? I mean, we got from Dubai to Tokyo with no connection other than a business card dropped by tomb raiders. Maybe some elite Scandinavian vampire hunter has already taken critical information or another artifact from the Hong Kong Zombies.
As for locations, Russia would be interesting, especially if tied in with Rasputin. Romania would have to be done very, very well to not feel hackneyed, though the rest of Eastern Europe is fair game. In the U.S., I see San Fran or Boston being good venues (San Fran for the counterculture scene, Boston for the history). I also agree, Haiti/Caribbean Islands could be a good logical progression, especially after Hong Kong, given the zombie influence. The Aztecs, Mayans, Olmec, etc. all had blood rituals. Anyplace desolate or extremely out of the way works, too... Southwestern U.S., the steppes of Mongolia, anyplace that is in a polar region, where there are months of pure darkness.

Mainly because of where the game has gone already and the direction it's headed in. If you haven't noticed, the locations are further east each time, not to mention the energy it would take to travel from Hong Kong all the way back to the western shores of Europe. (40-50 energy...maybe more?) And I realize that going to Haiti you would have to backtrack, but if you went to Russia (love the Rasputin idea!) after Hong Kong, then to say...California, Haiti wouldn't be too far.

I'm not sure I can agree. Yeah, we keep going farther east, but you can't get much farther than Tokyo, my friend. Prices are arbitrary, anyway. Gail would not have to make a trip back to Eastern Europe that expensive if she did not want to. Anything can be written off with a clever reason "stow away on a cargo plane to Helsinki, 5 blood".
I like that the game hasn't been too predictable so far. I'd rather be surprised where we go next, rather than having to continue in the same direction around the planet all the time. Energy be damned. Anyone at a high level at this point, unless they have a very specific character build, probably has alot of energy, anyway, since combat doesn't help you level much in a game where the powerful are few and far between.

Russia is much farther east compared to Tokyo...

Uhm, not compared to the international date line, which most people use as a starting point.
(...at least, not the part of Russia that the story of Rasputin unfolded in, which was St. Petersburg, on the western side of Russia.)
btw: I left you a PM.

btw: I left you a PM.Yes! I saw that you did! Anyway...I don't think your ideas are bad ideas...I actually have thought several times "What if the game went back to Europe?" There's just so many places and opportunities. Another one I just thought of is The Netherlands, more specificly, Amsterdam.

Yes, Amsterdam works much in the same way that SanFran would. Counterculture, night life, etc. That and it has foreign flare, at least for the majority of players, I suppose.

Not to mention the huge illegal drug trade! maybe some of their underlords could have gotten their hands on some artifacts?
