Favourite location

[VampireNaomi]

What was your favourite location in The Dig and why?

 

I absolutely love the beach where the sea monster appears. It's such a peaceful place, and the colours fit the atmosphere perfectly. Not to talk about the sound effects.

My really favorite place is the underwater cavern. I just love it, I wish someday I can go there and just stare at that beatiful window. And the music there is so relaxing.....zzzzzZZZZZZzzz....Good Night...

[Alien426]

I agree, this is probably my favorite, too. It feels so cozy.

 

But I also love the crystal tunnel, the sun-drenched spots and basically all the locations with the ocean.

 

I like how during the game you'll constantly go from a room to a roofed exterior that feels safe and comfy, and then wander along the edge of a steep cliff.

I was looking through the gallery Alien426 linked to trying to determine which room was my favourite, but after a few repetitions of 'that one, or that one, or that one', I decided that I love all the rooms.

 

If pushed, though, I'm rather fond of the map room, because of the beautiful light and music and the interplay of nature and machinery.

I love this scene where boston jumps into the water and diving to this underwater-place.

 

I remember when you are on this place, writing some word on your keyboard, you can see yourself swimming outside.

 

I think it was something like "starwars" or anything.

[Valkian]

Oh, yes. That's the easter egg. But the word is NOT "starwars".

 

So if you don't know what the word is you will have to wait until The Dig Museum's Grand Opening!

[cocytan]

man i love this game!

 

have to agree with the beach at the museum spire, that was my favourite place too (art wise)...

 

anyone ever played the game more than 3 times through... i listened to the 'vacation on cocytus' audio drama just now and realised i hadn't ever heard a good portion of that dialogue during the game...

 

...a result of various easter eggs perhaps?

[Valkian]

That's a good question. I haven't heard "have you seen this boy?" in the game. And a few other lines too.

 

Does anyone knows in what part of the game do this lines come from?

[cocytan]

i actually remember the 'have you seen this boy' line... i think boston says it when you ask maggie about brink at some random point in the game (after he has gone missing of course)...

 

most of the stuff maggie & brink say in the audio drama i don't recognise... i'll post exact lines later... at uni now...

[thomas_a]

if you go to maggie in the libarary and talk about ludger, boston will ask: "have you seen this boy?" a direct cameo to the actor robert patrick's role as the T-1000, in terminator 2.

The library is great, but especially the big underwater chamber with the blue glowing things in the centre.

[thomas_a]

i liked the cliff were brink is buuilding his coo coo machinogram.

[F2bnp]

I really liked the scene when you arrive on the planet and I liked the music too!
