Curse

This is the beginning of what I hope will be a nice long in-game project for me. I was clearing out the last bits of fog in Jaya Bluffs, beginning the Cartographer Title for one of my young native Canthans, when I came upon a lot of amazing and artistic scenes. Some of them are extraordinary, entire villages that you could never reach down by the foot of the mountain, bridges and tunnels emerging from the rocks, and tons of others. So I decided on this project.

As I continue on my character to aim for the Cartographer titles, I will take pictures. Lots and lots of pictures. Every scenic view or hidden sight, I'll document. And they'll all go right here in the Screenshots forum. I'll be doing both outposts and explorable areas, each area getting their own post on this thread. I've already been through and mapped a few areas on Shing Jea without taking pictures, so I'll post them later on when I go back to them, but for now, I have two areas to get started with.

As I get further into this project, I hope to be able to compile a scrapbook for Tyria and Elona as well.

Also, if I could ask everyone not to post their own pictures, that would be great. I'm not trying to be stuffy or anything, but I imagine it's going to get really complicated on this thread if everyone starts posting pictures. Thanks.

For now, here are a couple of sights from Shing Jea. (First images will be posted in a few minutes).

Jaya Bluffs

Coming Soon: Saoshang Trail

yes, indeed
love the graphics, and the simple music, just perfect when you are doing HW or studying, drink ALe and listen to music n watch the views sometimes

I have to ask, where are those dark stairs?

That's my fault actually, I didn't edit that in until after his post. No harm done. I'm glad everyone likes the pictures, I'll get Saoshang Trail up soon, along with Seitung Harbor. I will also probably be adding pictures later on to areas already posted, like Jaya Bluffs, so I'll post when i add on to something.

EDIT: Thedarkmarine, those dark stairs are at the southern end of that canyon in the fourth picture.

Sometimes its crazy when you see these from those angles and later you're running around in the middle of it.
