you are sounding zoomish and white copeish. Why you mentioning only dull brown wrpgs? The countryside isn't something to be glorified. They are human sinkholes that smell like cowshit, it's where dreams come to die.
Anyway here a few that take place in the country side.
Primarily in the countryside
>Legend of Mana
>Seiken Densetsu3
>Tingle's Rosy Rupee land
>Breath of Fire 1-4
>First Arc the Lad
>Dark Cloud
>Technically the first Mario RPG
>Paper Mario

>>3898084
Yes they do. I know several people who have lived their entire lives here and some who have died of drug OD;s

Not OP but my dream is to move back to countryside.
Cities fill me with disgust and provide almost nothing of worth to me.

>>3898704
True. This is the dream life.
The faggot that talked about people ODing and that there is nothing to do, is hoplessly stupid.
Cities have zombie infestations of junkies.
And what do you 'want to do' in a city anyway?
Drink? Listen to nigger music?
Catch STDs?

I do recommend though to move to the countryside with friends.
Also be aware if Bill Gates/Blackrock/Insert Blg Company Here are going to fuck you over.

Well if you are in Detriot, Pittsburgh, or some midwestern shithole of course cities are going to suck. Over on the west coast they are paradise.

Why do you guys love the country side so much and talk shit on cities?

I lived in both throughout my life an the city has much more to offer

Country
>have to have a car
>everything is 10+ miles away from one another
>everything is really spread out
>not many people about
>not many attractions
>dark as fuck at night

>no stores for miles
>limited dating pool everyone is married, has kids out of wedlock or is in a serious relationship
>everyone smokes
>shit like heroin and crack is rampant
>only thing open after 11 are bars

Cities
>very technological
>always networking events to attend
>don't need a car, but it's a status symbol
>many different grocery stores to choose from
>large dating pool

Why do you all celebrate the countryside so much?

I did that. Depends on your personality type I think, but I have no real regrets about it. Especially in the current era of the internet, all the odd stuff I may want I can now purchase online, and so I can get the physical space and quiet I wish for, while also getting books/tools/whatever.
But, I think it depends on your personality type. But just being able to own dogs and be able to run them and such has been a huge pleasant part of my life.

We in civilized Nations, i.e. Europe, have Public Transport that actually works, we have modern & traditional festivals, we have high tech infrastructure (compared to your rural stuff), we have anything and everything in less than 30 min drive from ancient ruins, museums, opera & theater, bars & clubs, mountains to hike, rivers to fish, forests to hunt.
You can go to gunranges (yes we do have weapons).
Or Archery, or whatever you wanna hurl at a target.
You can play soccer, go iceskating, skiing, sledding.

etc.
etc.

>typical american muh dic, i gots to fuc
Why is it that americans can't form normal relationships?
Literally all of the people I know have met their gf by hanging out with friends who in turn brought their friends.
Many do the online thing.
Anyway if you are really that desperate, we got prostitution too…


Also I think at this point most of America isn't White, so you claiming that I am 'acting white'…
Who are you to talk.
How about you actually develop your Nation, because most of it is most certainly not industrialized.

OPs picrel is how I live but with mountains nearby.
My neighbor has 20 cows.
Just inb4 'you're not living rural'. No we do, but we are civilized.

The real answer is that both the city and countryside have problems similar and different.
If you think that cities don't have a shit ton of drugs and depression, but the sticks do, that is a very naive or sheltered perspective.

>>3899115
That's the thing. Out here in a city I don't have deal with it up close.; I have only interacted with gamedevolpers and gymbros since moving here. In a small town with a class of twenty people I am exposed to everything upclose and personal.

Pillars of Eternity 1 takes place mainly in these settings if you ignore the DLC.

>>3897912
BG1 is a good one.
Dragon Age Inquisition, but the types of environments vary, not just conventional countryside/fields/meadows/forests, also deserts, mountains, snow. I found them nice.

Dungeon Siege 1 is quite focused on various environmnet, but there's lot of cavern content between the open areas. DS 2 has more fantastic landscapes than DS1, but landscapes still, and I found it quite kino back in 2006-2010

>>3898183
>The countryside isn't something to be glorified. They are human sinkholes that smell like cowshit, it's where dreams come to die.
that's somehow as dumb as the sort of projection that you seemed to have read into OP, regardless of whether he meant it like that or not

>>3903948
Hmm, I wonder, I wanted to point it out but then, lots of stuff happens in cavern/ruins interior spaces.

The environments are kino though. Eternal shame they are pre-rendered into a 2D background texture with resolution that is way too low. Any given how they didn't release a higher-res pack (would be much better than trying to retrofit turn-based mode), I fear they did the same sin as BG1 and didn't keep the assets for re-rendering.

>>3903201
Just finished this. Nice little game. A bit roguelikey, but the map and quests are handcrafted. There isn't much in the way of writing, it's decidedly a dungeon crawler only the dungeons happen to be outdoors.
But it's comfy, I liked it better than Eschalon, despite that being a more fleshed out RPG experience.

>>3897912
>tire track roads in a medieval setting
When will they learn?
Even kingdom cum got this wrong.

Unfortified roads, before there were cars, consisted of a big ditch in the middle as those were either tread by foot or animal carts and the animals were way heavier per area unit than what has been pulled on those carts.

>>3909570
>Unfortified roads, before there were cars, consisted of a big ditch in the middle as those were either tread by foot or animal carts and the animals were way heavier per area unit than what has been pulled on those carts

I wonder about that, although I do think the old-style wagon wheels probably caused different marks.
Perhaps a task for experimental archealogy, since this probably isn't the thing somebody would think of recording and describing for future generations.

Or are there pre-tyre photographs that could be useful? I'd expect there were some.

>>3909581
I speak from experience with an outdoor museum. Regrettably, assholes started driving with their cars on there, so I can't take the picture. Well ok, they have to move their stuff and the cart is just for show, but still, perfectly fine cart and foot only track of about 100 meters all in all got ruined. Also full of snow now.
There will be a new part of the road in summer. Will take a picture then. Though that's probably for another thread.

Mostly lighting and art direction. Most games get the textures and models wrong, bathe them in colored lighting then add desaturating (or oversaturating) color filters on top. Sunlight is almost perfectly white unless it's sunset/sunrise.
This is why I maintain that theHunter (the old one) has some of the most realistic nature, despite being fairly low detail.

asking here because I can't find a conclusive answer anywhere online, and I don't want to make a KCD thread just to ask a single question

is pic related how the game divides the alcohols into categories? with Wine Bibber and Beer Bibber it just says "wine" or "beer", but does that mean something like mead is grouped as a wine? mead is just wine made from honey.

>>3897912
genuinely, some of the older Harvest Moons
