Universe Dream Land Pac-Man Universe --- Colombia: In 1893, the US government built a flying city, and then it declared independence. Even though it was built in the late 1800s, everything follows a 1700s aesthetic, and although its the 1800s, they still have semi-modern technology. Is there a word for that? That kind of telling the audience the year and then using clearly advanced technology like its no big deal thing that Hideo Kojima also does? Anyway, the leadership then decides that the United States has strayed from the Founding Fathers original vision, so they need to maintain it by being super theocratic, fascist, and racist. Well, okay, Im willing to accept that theyre super racist, but then why allow black people into their city at all? Just because they need workers? I feel like if you can build a flying city with all this advanced technology, you can probably find a way to make manual labor less necessary, Im just saying. Anyway, overall, solid premise. Farscape Universe: Oh, Farscape. Youre okay, I guess. Im something of an aficionado of space shows, and I can definitively state that 90% of them are pure, unwatchable garbage. Farscape isnt one of them, but its no Star Trek: TNG, either. Farscape feels like an attempt to do subversion of expectations before that was really a proper thing, and I generally dont like that kind of thing unless its masterfully executed, like something like Undertale. There are lots of weird things in Farscape that are fun and that I enjoy, but the overall world itself? Its kind of unpleasant, to be honest. The Badlands: Im willing to accept a post-apocalypse where evil noblemen have taken over the southwestern United States and each specialize in an industry like slavery, farming, and so on. Im willing to accept that some technology survives, so people have cars and so on. But no guns? The technical expertise required to build a gun is far lower than that which is required to build and maintain a car, so they have to be able to build guns, they just refuse to use them because bad, so they use crossbows and swords? Immersion: broken. Calradia: Oh god, this is the origin of that stupid meme map from 4chan? Learn something new every day, I guess. Alright, so this looks like the absolute most stock not!Europe Ive ever seen, right down to a not!Roman Empire that collapsed in the distant past. Yeah, Nords to the north, a Sultanate to the south, got it. The Wiki even describes most of its past as unknown, which makes it harder to judge, I guess, but eh. Skyworld: Its hard to really judge this as a setting, because its super barebones. Its just Ancient Greece in the sky. The appeal of Kid Icarus (at least Uprising) is Pit, Palutena, and Hades just screwing around. The actual setting is barely present. I will admit that I didnt see the weird aliens coming, though. That game just constantly throws crazy stuff at you, it never lets up. Really good game, shame they never made another one. --- Not changing this sig until I decide to change this sig.
