    Default New Inspiration

    Hello all,
    I came across this on the internet and thought that this was the best place for it. I totally understand why things like this don't turn up in pencil and paper games, but WHY haven't CRPG's given us an experience surpassing that which mother nature can provide? >2Km deep. The deepest cave on earth. the map is humbling.

    There are older and fouler things in the deep places of the world.
    If the radiance of a thousand suns was to burst at once into the sky, that would be like the splendor of the Mighty One...I am become Death, the Shatterer of worlds.
    -J. Robert Oppenheimer (father of the atom bomb) alluding to The Bhagavad Gita (Chapter 11, Verse 32)

    Turns out that there is a 3d model of the cave, but I get my Chrome browser to display it. Man! Question - why don't game designers use data like this?

    Likely because we're clueless until someone brings it up. Then we freak, and can't figure out a good way to use it.
