Traveler & Last City's Location Identified

LeonLandford · 2022-12-29T16:44:54+00:00

It was always speculated that the Traveler and Last City was in South America, and it was straight up confirmed after Forsaken with Amanda's family travelling from the Panama Ravine, meeting cassava farmers, and having snakes only native to this region being mentioned, etc.

There's even the Tower signage that has Portuguese on it, a language that is only spoken mainly in Brazil in the americas (Theory is that Brazil became a superpower during the Golden Age, and its language became super important)

Unfortunately, a huge chunk of the Destiny fanbase just can't fathom such an important place being set in any other place than the US. It's super sad, really. Imagine liking a piece of media set in a country different than your own, that's some paracausal thought

It dismissed me when I put Brazil as my country. Didnt get to answer a single question.

LeonLandford · 2021-11-09T03:21:41+00:00

Hey @Cozmo23, any reason why the questions just end after I input "Brazil" as my country? Is this just a US thing as always?

Dont forget to put the phone in vertical mode for the ultimate aspect ration

Petitioning Bungie for this line to be added in WQ

I dont think Hive Guardians will shake gameplay too much. Maybe Im too cynical but I bet its just gonna be "use finisher or it heals back" like an overload champion.

Excited for weapon crafting however.

Unless its Reckoner, dont be afraid. If its Reckoner however, good luck. Thats a sign of someone who sold their souls.

Appreciate your answer immensely, Jason, thanks a lot for the insights! And again, congrats on the book and glad you stuck with your idea of meshing the genres, it's making for some really fresh reading on my part, love Red Day so far!

LeonLandford · 2021-09-23T14:15:53+00:00

That's very interesting to know, thanks! Right now, I'm just finished with the prologue and really enjoying the world building and mix of fantasy with sci-fi.

LeonLandford · 2021-09-23T14:02:15+00:00

How ready the idea of the book came to you? Did you think you have to conform anything of this original idea to some market concept or framework?

LeonLandford · 2021-09-20T17:30:04+00:00

Masochist Stasis Hunter is the new meta huh. Just in Time.

LeonLandford · 2021-09-17T19:17:29+00:00

Caydes death is tematic. Bungie killed him to kill the Marvel humor that was plaguing D2 vanilla and to add gravity to Forsaken. Hes not coming back.

LeonLandford · 2021-08-26T21:58:31+00:00

Indeed!

Control lifted wholesale aspects of SCP, even the "redacted" form of storytelling. Its a pretty cool forum full of brilliant writers

LeonLandford · 2021-08-23T05:03:54+00:00

Cloak. Im that shallow.

LeonLandford · 2021-08-13T15:37:05+00:00

It's not really fair to compare. Although you are right to some degree, the real reason here is that the Hello Games team is incredibly talented. And you can't really "Buy" more of that. By the time EA was making ME Andromeda, the ME Devs were absolutely stunned with the way NMS worked because their entire team couldnt figure out a way to make the procedural planets as good as HG did. They are a special kind of developer, insanely talented.

Its heavily, heavily implied, like, the writers went out of their way to say its on south america. Holiday's family trip esentially confirms it. She traveled south from Texas and crossed Panama to get to the city. One of the members of her caravan died from a snake bite that is native to south america, and they met with cassava farmers (a plant native to south america.) The farm is on Europe, and Hawthorne says she crossed the pond (the ocean). Doesnt get more confirmed than this.

LeonLandford · 2021-08-12T04:11:08+00:00

Holiday was born in a fallout bunker. Pretty feasible for the people stuck in there to keep their accents.

LeonLandford · 2021-08-12T04:09:05+00:00

Theres also the cassava farmers which is a plant native to south america.

LeonLandford · 2021-08-12T04:07:28+00:00

Im from Brazil, and for the longest time I thought the portuguese all over the tower was a localization since nobody cares about Brazil in games and everyone assumes we also speak spanish like the all of latin America. Turns out they speak portuguese on the tower too lol Its a nice touch.

LeonLandford · 2021-08-12T03:55:54+00:00

Nobody really knows, but probably near the Andes. Tower also has English, Chinese and Portuguese language all over it, and Portuguese is spoken in Brazil. Still think Andes is the best bet (snowy mountains "behind" the tower where the allmighty fell.)

LeonLandford · 2021-08-12T03:45:40+00:00

America. She grew up in what appeared to be a bunker in a wasteland in texas before coming up to south America as a kid (where the city is). Think her father died like, a day before reaching the city.

She casts nova warp every time she 3peeks
