I'm not talking maps, I'm talking the general look of the environment. What was your favourite? I liked the damp one best, probably.

Bow before the mighty Javoo!
Palumpolum skyline was really good. Bodhum beach, too. I'm at the Archylte Valley right now, and despite that I'm struggling to continue, this place is gorgeous.
Oerba and Archylte Steppe (finally, exploring!) are two that stand out in my mind. The towns have been nothing special, and everything else has been a straight line which sort of discourages much looking around.
As I said, not talking about map design, just talking about the environment itself. Like, do you enjoy landfills? Or do you enjoy greenery? Maybe sewers?![]()

Well, it certainly could be argued that a linear map discourages looking around because the only place to go is straight ahead or straight back...ergo, you might fail to notice the beautiful scenery on those maps.
At any rate, I think the Sulyya Springs area is magnificent. Plus, if you catch the waterfall at the right angle, you get to see the mist rainbow.![]()
The whole game has phenominal background graphics. My favorite was probably archylte steppe
Archylte Steppe is definitely one of my favorites. The scenery is just absolutely gorgeous! That goes for most outside environments of Gran Pulse though.
So far, everything Gran Pulse has shown has been pretty breathtaking. In terms of Coccon, I probably liked the damps woods the most. I haven't been terribly impressed with the technological constructs of the game cause they feel too reminiscent of Xenosaga's design except without the religious symbolism painted everywhere.
Most of the game is gorgeous but little has actually been staying with me mentally.
True beauty exists in things that last only for a moment.
Current Mood: And it's been a long December and there's reason to believe. Maybe this year will be better than the last. I can't remember all the times I tried to tell myself. To hold on to these moments as they pass...
I haven't played that far into the game but out of what I've seen, I love the Sunleth Waterscape. The music in it is the best I've heard so far out of the game. The whole place has a really soothing, yet cheerful thing goin' on.
Crystal lake was awfully nice when I first got there, same with that green forest that came after the white forest.
I kinda wish it would orbit around Pulse though. Besides that, it's cool. Diggin' the crystal goo that drops from the bottom.
And I'm totally diggin' (SPOILER)the church-ish look in the final chapter area's.
The area that connects from the Vallis Media, I can't remember what it's called, but it's just beautiful. I love the music too, it sort of reminds me of the Jungle Book with the wooden flutey sounds. Love it!
jkhkjg
The optional area in Pulse with the destroyed city at the end. It was probably the only zone in the game that I was thinking 'hey, this is kind of cool'.
