>Fantasy movie/series with massive world>It's mostly set in Heroshire
>McJobkek
>Fan favorite arc is set in Boozy Bay>It's only two episodes long
A lot of 80s movies featured underdressed warrior women.
>>201760705For me, it's Amazons.
>>201760411I adore these parody maps
>>201760650>Pirateshit No thanks
>it's an all wizards are perverts episode
>>201760411>Parody map>Still more plausible and less boring than PlanetosBravo Martin
>>201760411Wait a minute
>>201762460Is there anything under the giant list of factions?
>>201760411>fantasy island nation>best ships and sailors of the world
>>201762460Man, imagine sailing through the western sea and find that continent sized desert square with equidistant cities forming neatly rows
>>201760411Fill most of the north with clouds and you get the Final Fantasy XIV world map.
>>201760411>geographical places and environments like swamps and forests exist in a fantasy world>ahhhh im going unoriginal!!!
>>201762543reptile kingdoms (a.k.a warhammer's version of poos) with snakes and relatives of the lizardmen
>>201760411>>It's mostly set in Heroshireas it should.those far flung lands on the map are window dressing. a facade. it gives the illusion of a much larger world. if you try to explore those lands too deeply the illusion will be shattered.
Few minds can craft a fantasy world as unique as Martin's one. Sorry midwits.
>>201762874>place on the West is called Westeros>place on the right is called Easterosahhh, the brilliant mind of GRR "Diarrhea" Martin
>>201762866is this a joke?
>>201762460for me, it's the Cult of Pleasure >>201760411honestly, I'd like to see a movie or play a game in this world. It could be great, like a really good cheese pizza. Nothing fancy or original, but good all the same.
>>201762866>>201762874GRRM is one of the only ones with the foresight to not define the edges of the world and instead use the perspective of the characters to demonstrate interesting myths and legends (ie people believe there are literal tiger men in yi ti, even though it’s obviously implied that it’s their sigil a la dire wolf or lion
>>201762950honestly I'm not sure. this one is a joke though
>>201762927Asia is the Assyrian word for east, redditor
>>201763046>GRRM is one of the only ones with the foresight to not define the edges of the worldI don't think this is true. I feel like this is fairly common.
>>201763085SOTHRYOSshut the fuck up and accept ASOIAF is derivative trash
>>201763116>quotes half the sentence in such a way that it doesn’t make sense
>>201763046did he have foresight not to define the edges or did he just forget to write anything about it? he kinda forgot to write the last book of his series for the last 14 years
>>201763139>NO NO YOU CANT TELL ME PEOPLE NAMED THINGS AFTER DIRECTIONS IN REAL LIFE TOOFor fun, I googled it. Here’s a chart that shows the dozens of countries that have a direction in their name. Did you know norway literally means north way LOL
>>201763217https://www.reddit.com/r/MapPorn/s/St5OqbZuI9Lol sorry I didn’t link it. Anyway you’re a retarded person. The northern most European countries name is literally north and the southern most African countries name is literally south
>>201763217>cant even attach the image he said he was gonna attachyep, thats a retard right there.
>>201763244>>201763242Here it is for you retard now stop criticizing my incest kino over things you don’t understand
>>201763242>>201763217so its derivative, like I said. He has no imagination thats why his story is so bland and he had to write pages on a diarrhea shit and cant finish his series because he forgot
>>201763286>his human characters realistically name things>derivative Should they have named it all grimshire and garguar bipbrop like in Baldurs gate or whatever awful example you think is unique and interesting
>>201763339Imagine if LOTR places were called like, Easternshire or some retarded shit, this is why no one will care about GoT trash in a few years
>>201760411>Townburg. Home.
>>201763400Lotr quite literally just stole all of its names from norse languages and etymology are you actually serious LOL even his “invented languages” are just mildly altered Scandinavian ones. Are you trolling for real or do you think he thought of all of that
>>201763339>>201763444Actually for that matter numenor is literally called westernesse by humans in lotr too. You’re just a fucking idiot dude even Tolkien did this
>>201762460Is it supposed to be Earth in the past or something like that or are they just extremely lazy?
>>201760411>Major export: Chainmail Bikinis
>>201763444>creates new languages derived from like 10 real life onesvs>I'll CALL IT WESTEROS CAUSE ITS IN THE WESTgay and retarded, typical NiGGRR fanboy
>>201763507>>201763484You’re a literal retard, Tolkien did the e x a c t same thing
>>201763531nopeand GRR is such a fanboy he literally added a fake R into the middle of his name to be closer to Tolkien, a far superior author with actual imagination and writing skills.
>>201760411I unironically use ChatGPT to create lore for randomly generated fantasy maps that I make online. I feel like this is very weird behavior but it's so much fun.
>>201763490It's Games Workshop Lazyness and Stupidity are their modus operandi. O and copious ammots of stealing.
>>201763559Tolkien named the westernmost island westernesse. You have not even read lotr dude just stop
>>201763400>no one will care about GoT trash in a few yearsNo one cares about it now. The show completely shit itself and it's been like 15 years since a book came out.
>>201763621that is from King Horn, a story set in our world.
>>201762460>Fantasy counterpart of California is named "The Broken Lands"
>>201763054>The Dothrakki LandsLost.
>>201762543Ind and Khuresh which have almost no associated lore.
>>201763885Not until the next $29.99 DLC pack releases.
>>201763992It's an opportunity to do something interesting but CA will probably fuck it up.
>>201762866>>201763054
>>201763992you should stop wasting your money on videogames,and start paying for sex like a true old fag.
>>201762460>year of lord sigmar
>>201760411The problem isn't limited imagination, its that everything fantasy has already been done and none can or will ever outdo Tolkien. Not to mention that imagination is actively punished by audiences. Once things stray too far off the standard tropes, real world analogies, or get too weird nobody wants to engage with it.
>>201764280doesn't even have a Circuit City >>201763168it still applies to your whole point. lots of authors do what you're describing
