High Isle

I had the expansion since it came out, but I haven't yet taken a closer look at it -- until now.

Whoever created the region of High Isle: Hats off; this map is just AWESOME!
A big complement to the developer team responsible for creating such a beautiful archipelago!

I like in particular the technique applied for the jungle on Amenos, where the background "fog" is slightly changed.
Perhaps this technique could also be used in other places in Tamriel (for example in Grathwood or Malabal Tor).

Again: Thank you for this beatiful map!
I often go to the forums if I am not satisfied with something, but I feel it is also important to give positive feedback :)

    It is indeed a very well designed map. This one love all the sunflowers, the varied landscapes and yes, the jungles in Amenos were very foreboding and atmospheric.

    World building is good on this game. I just don't like the invisible walls that you occasionally will come across.

    But is it fun ?

    Considering buying it at 50% off. Still on the fence on that ...

    This one would say yes, at half price that’s a good deal. It’s not as good as Elswyr or Morrowind, but a major improvement from Greymoor (in Sammy’s opinion).

    Yes, it's fantastic!

    My biggest complaint about ESO environmentally has always been how sparse "forested" areas are in the game, the lack of undergrowth and young trees making them look artificial and more like parkland even in Valenwood (and Blackwood was awful for forest) but Amenos is AMAZING and shows how talented the team can be.

    Makes me wonder if they improved the flora tech somewhere to allow for greater density. Maybe in preparation for a Falinesti chapter down the line? :smiley:

    I’ve always felt that it was a little barren. Not many enemies about. Not tons of nodes to harvest. At least not on the main island. Not sure about Amenos since I don’t visit there often.
    But, I actually really enjoyed the main quest line of the High Isle chapter.

    I fell in love with jungle parts of Amenos, it's such a beautiful lush nature (and water areas)! I like to take screenshots where you can't see a road :)
