What are some settings in games that you find the most fascinating? Not just individual locations but the overall setting the game takes place in, though the locations can be a factor to why. But I'm thinking about the premise of the setting to be exact.
What brought this in mind is Cocoon and Gran Pulse from Final Fantasy XIII. I just find the idea fascinating of this artificial little high tech world that resides above an actual planet which has gone primordial. It has that whole nature vs tech thing going for it. Even if Cocoon has a few nature-esque spots.
Another one that's obvious coming from me is the Bionis and the Mechonis from Xenoblade. Society thriving on long dead titans sounds sick, and even more so in game when you're working your way up the Bionis. It's fascinated me from my first time playing and still today I find it one of the most interesting game settings.
Pikmin in hindsight is also really cool as it's basically a remnant of our own society but all the characters and enemies are miniature. I always loved in Pikmin 2 seeing the Piklopedia and moving the camera to see the backgrounds, where it's just basically real life nature.
