Postcards from Stonefield

11 03 2011

 

Wait, wait!  Don’t tell me.  You’re thinking: “OMG! More images?  Srsly!?”

Yep.  Seriously.

These are some seriously beautiful images of the Stonefield region.  Stonefield is second region you explore if you play as a Defiant race.  It is characterized by a decidedly Scandinavian climate, glacial rock abutments and valleys, jutting stone – and bones.  Big, big bones.  Everywhere.  However, it isn’t without its own sort of beauty.  The constant rain and overcast skies create mists and a thick haze, at times, and the main stopping point for adventurers making their way across the rocky terrain, is the aptly named Granite Falls.  At night, the sky is star-filled.  However, the plane of Earth is constantly assaulting this region, and its citizens are also suffering from a strange undead blight.

I’ll admit, during preivews, way back in August 2010, I was completely unimpressed with the images of this area.  I now eat crow.

Check out those jagged peaks!  Look at the mist as it leaves the valleys in the morning light!  Check out that storm-filled sky!
