Do you think Mount Kalaga will be as big as Mount Chiliad?EN

bigger, id say.

kalaga looks like its properly out of town, in something built to work as a full national park. rangers, marked trails, campgrounds, the lot. probably somewhere you can disappear to and lie low for a bit as well.

chiliad was never small. it was just boxed in by what the hardware could do back then, and kalaga with its park doesnt have that ceiling

ah yes, florida. famous for its alpine peaks and world class ski resorts

famous for its alpine peaks and world class ski resorts

which is exactly why it has to be standing in for georgia, not florida

it has to be standing in for georgia

right, and a chunk of the map is meant to be georgia anyway. the appalachians run straight through the state and the trail itself kicks off down there

lads. its a video game

my guess is technically a touch taller, but spread across a much wider and more believable area, and nowhere near as pointy as chiliad was

nowhere near as pointy as chiliad

this is the take thats gonna age well i reckon

footprint yes. height no

yeah this. not necessarily a taller mountain, but a far bigger wild area wrapped around it. a proper national park with actual things to do in it, instead of chiliad where you went up, had a look, came back down

worth remembering georgias mountains are two or three times smaller than californias. its rolling hills and gradual climbs up there, so realistically no giant summit, and absolutely zero chance of a snow capped peak

bigger, probably. the official blurb for the park puts it as a national landmark pinned to the northern edge of the state. hunting, fishing, trails you can take a truck down, and backwoods stuffed with hillbilly mystics and people hiding from the feds.

which is interesting, because it never actually says the park is in leonida. my read is that it sits on the northern line and is really in gloriana

it never actually says the park is in leonida

the postcard in that screenshot literally has visit leonida written across it though. thats the whole point of those, states advertise their OWN attractions to pull tourists in. nobody sticks the neighbouring states mountain on their postcard

call me unwell but im convinced theres a slice of gloriana tucked away up there. and if not that, then a few little towns hidden in the trees at minimum

way bigger. all of it. thats not even a debate.

every game grows as the hardware lets it, thats simply how this goes. rockstar shipped something in 2013 and it was massive for its day. they ship something in 2026 and obviously it dwarfs that.

the mountain, the buildings, the fields, every last bit of it scales up. what exactly are we arguing about here

this place is obsessed with the idea that bigger automatically means better. a smaller mountain is completely fine, the number is arbitrary. give it a character thats genuinely its own and it lands just as hard as the big empty rock in 5 did
