    ^ my thoughts on that–

    the only place big enough to contain such a massive place would be space, and i don't think it would be very interesting if that chick and her horde escapes westworld only to find themselves contained in a station or ship. i see the threat being them mixing with the rest of normal society.

    which makes me think westworld's sky is actual sky, and the mountains are actual mountains. there's enough land in the southwest to contain it, for sure.

    however, why are the animals fake? why the fake birds and snakes? wouldn't real birds and wildlife be mixed in with the robotic ones?

    UNLESS they did it all underground, which seems like more trouble than it's worth. digging miles of cavern and lighting it all? that's just crazy (but then so is space)

    • may be an island? i think droid animals because they can. they mention the cost of creating hosts as being more effective than before, so why not build embrandelec
    • If you want animals to play roles in narratives, they need to be fake. Would real vultures circle a dead host, for example?ETM
    • Or what about crossing paths with a snake that is sure not to bite? I am sure there are very mundane elements to many narratives.ETM
    • yeah that's truescarabin
    • island would work i guess but they'd have to redo all of the terrain to be desert instead of tropical or whateverscarabin

    • But it could still be an island. "Delos Incorporated". Delos is an actual Greek island and in mythology was the birthplace of Apollo and Artemis.ETM
    • Twins, Apollo is often associated with the sun, Artemis with the moon, in an almost Yinyang relationship, often working together.ETM
    • Ethical issues with killing animals too, maybe. Certainly horses...set
    • if it is just regular terrain, it would be a pain in the ass making sure nobody flew a plane or drone into the areamonospaced
    • robotic animals makes sense to keep the place safer and on-script, but also makes it a hassle to remove any real creatures ... crazy shitmonospaced
