As per our Kickstarter stretch goal, we’d like to start a discussion to generate options for our additional environment and underground art sets. This thread will be only to generate ideas and then later we’ll post a poll with the top approved choices.
Keep in mind, Grim Dawn is a small-scope indie title and there is a limit on how many assets / how much complexity we can build for each. We will have to weigh the ideas in terms of whether they’re something we’re capable of pulling off when selecting the final choices. Of course, we’ll also want to make sure they fit our world / fiction.
Environments
Currently for environments we have marsh, green deciduous forest, village / town, farmland, highlands, autumn forest, necropolis, dumping grounds and some hybrids that are sort of in between. We are expecting to do a winter set for an expansion, so as popular as that might be, we’re probably going to hold off for now. So, what else would you like to see? Wasteland, highlands, ruined fort… perhaps something more exotic? Some people mentioned the Ch’thonic void…
Undergrounds
For undergrounds, we have a couple varieties of natural caves, cellars / dungeons and are planning to do a mining set for caves. We may be able to do another UG depending on how elaborate this one ends up being.
People have mentioned sewers, catacombs… A while back Brazilski posted about wine cellars / vaults - I wouldn’t see this as being a whole UG set by itself but it could be a unique new mini-set we build for the cellar underground. If there were a bunch of ideas to build mini-sets for existing UGs, we could put a few of those together too as an option, which might be nice to help diversify what is already one of the most frequent UG sets.
Anyway, have at it! Special bonus for including photo reference like Brazilski’s thread.
