These images are nice. My favorite screenshots I have seen from the game so far. Good job guys, maybe you should found a photographer commune, lol.

This picture actually means a lot to me. I was born in the Northern jungles of Thailand in the early 70's, and I was there for a bit before moving to the states, and I've been back a couple of times. This area in Khenarthi's Roost.... the first time I saw it I had to stop because I was starting to cry a bit. It reminded me so much of where I was from - the shape of the buildings, and the fact that they were built on "legs" for monsoon season. The decorations are more of what you would find in larger cities, like the capital of Bangkok; jungle houses are more humble and not as grand as these. It combines what I feel are the best elements of my home country, and it overwhelmed me, making me homesick and missing my extensive family. Se'uah Ai - which is my childhood nickname meaning "Shy Tiger" - is having a hard time leveling because I keep going to this area to meditate in real life. I will go here to put on my headphones and listen to the wind and the birds and sit cross-legged in my chair and meditate, remembering as a child chasing crickets and dragonflies and crossing old wooden bridges with the water buffalo to find a waterfall with my aunts and uncle.

When I made my wandering Templar and gave him my old nickname, I honestly had no idea this would be waiting for me. No other game has done anything that made a deep emotional connection. Even my mother looked at the pics I had taken here and even she agreed how much it looked like home. "Super rich people in the jungle!", she said.
