dividing up Summerset
(I am making up names and divisions and I will go by them for the purposes of this post)
I think in working on Summerset we should split it into districts. The
Island the Firsthold is on can be the Firsthold District. The district
with Cloudrest would be the Cloudrest District. The District with
Lillandril and Alinor will be the Bay District. The one with Sunhold
and Dusk will be the South-Shore District. and the Shimmerene one can
be the Central District...
but the reasons for this would be.... [1] different regions have diffeent needs and themes(like models, dialogue, quest-themes, etc.)
- the Firsthold district faces outward, any foreign goods and buildings if any would be here
- Cloudrest District is close to the Thrassian coral kingdom of the Sloads, it probably gets attacked more
- the Bay District will have a LOT more ships and the highest pinnacle of Altmer architecture and society
- Central District would be where all the wilder of beasts have gone
since the Altmer are very good sea-fol and tend to hug along the coasts
- South-shore would be raided by Maormer on occasion and have a lot of navy [2] Splits up the work so one regions can be focused on at a time
- really depends on you but I think make the island bigger (than Cyrodiil) and have it in its own worldspace
- you only really need this if you are going for bigger-the-better idea
just a suggestion
