I think Lions Arch and the coasts are so pretty. It looks like Far Cry with Mergoyles.

The scenery is quite nice, and changes in a good pace. The jungles look awesome, my personal favorite.

Meh, I still find pre-Searing Ascalon prettier than Kryta. Kryta's a beautiful tropical paradise, but it just doesn't have the "perfect" idyllic, high-fantasy feel to it.

My favourite area of the game is probably the Crystal Desert, though. It's the only place where the storyline felt truly epic to me, and the surroundings are beautiful in a desolate way that isn't dreary the way that post-Searing Ascalon is.

LA and the jungles around it were easily my favourite parts of the game.

The scenery in this game is simply amazing, even the ruins of Ascalon had their charms.

I liked pre-searing alot because it seemed so beautiful and then post-searing it made me so sad thinking about what ascalon looked like before...

It would be cool if you could go back to pre-searing eventually without having to start a new game...

It's also funny to me how Lions Arch is referred to as LA, and Los Angeles is also consequently referred to as LA, I think A-net did that specifically for a pun : )

EFB but still.

You will see overgrown jungles, beautiful tropical beaches, snow topped peaks. It gets alot better. Post searing ascalon, though, is utterly ugly. That is the one part of the game I just cant make myself enjoy.

I find post-searing tragically beautiful.

I want to know where Gwen is. My husband found her broken flute in post-searing, but it doesn't have any "quest item" tag on it.

My two favourite places in the game are the Maguuma (really awesome) and Yak's Bend (because OMG YAKS)

There is whole lot more then just playing the game, doing missions and quests. Go exploring and uncover the whole world map. You will find desolated statues, ruins, beautiful beaches, deserts with oases in the middle of nowhere etc... Take your time when you are exploring, you can easily find the best spots for awesome screenshots. Go to the very edges of the fire island missions, it will take your breath away !!!

I've taken over 100 screens, and that was in the last beta and the first two or three days of playing. I went screenshot mad and took beautiful scenery pictures that I turned into desktops or am working on it.

I made Corwin a desktop out of the Lion's Arch lion statue on the cliff and changed it a bit to look white instead of gold.

I made a really cool desktop of the Dwayna Statue, and I love getting scenic shots of the game, there are places that are so pretty!

I don't mind post-searing Ascalon much. The ominous, post-apocalyptic feel suits me well. And holy crap, those crystals look amazing! It's not my favorite place, but I didn't find it too dull. The missions there, though, were craptastic compared to the later ones.
