Mahou's Haven

Thanks for the well wishing shane! ^^

I guess for now I'll do something like this:



Pics














Music:

[color=#993300]Maho has a thread?

AND ALBERT EINSTEIN??????? YUS!!!!

haha, hello Sneaky! xD

A thread? Wow.. I do! When did that happen?! jk jk

Yeah I do. Sometimes it's not all that active cuz I get really busy. But it's like my home here and I take good care of it. It's filled with all sorts of awesome people and is a nice calm place. It's also likely a prime example of why Melly calls me a druid so often.

I'm always filling it will nature pics and harp music. lol, but I enjoy it here! ^^

oh yeah! Welcome! I always trying to welcome people to the thread ans wish them a good day! ^^

[color=#993300]Hm hm hm indeed you do. It'd be nice to find a more....intellectual thread to float around.
Nature pictures I can supply you with especially since I've gotten myself a nifty handful of new lenses for my camera.
And if anything, I'll flood the place with classical music hue hue. This'll be intriguing.

That's the idea! When I made this thread I was looking to add something a little different. The fact that you have a camera is nifty and music is always welcome!

[color=#993300]Well it depends, do you like macro (close-up) shots, general subject shots, or wideview/panoramic shots. Anyways, let me know how you want them. I can do a few distortions too like fisheye lenses. I'd like to do something aside from people and sports lol

Is it too late to say you should write something about nature holding secret treasures?

Tbh, anything's good.. if you were to go through even just my recent post history here, you'd see I've posted a variety from the web. I'm not picky. I believe the world has beauty and that beauty has many sides. ^^

@shane
No, that sounds like a good idea. I'll come up with something original. One of my own writings. It's been awhile, I'm due to write something out.. but it will take some time to do. Give me a day or two to write it all out and make it decent enough to post. ^^

Because you've had that avi fore what feels like a century now, I can only picture you as looking something like that.

[color=#993300]Pity there are no mountains here. I live by water, so maybe I can get some beach photos. No underwater photos though (yet). Looks like I'll be doing a lot of close ups.

What's you're favorite terrain?

Well, it's hard to say really. I mean, so many things have a sense of beauty. It's why you can find pics of old cottages and such on the same site you can find mountains or rivers. If I had to choose though, I'm partial to things like trees or other plants.

View of beaches and such would be just as welcome though. It's not like they are hard to find, but there are rather fewer of those than anything else, especially on this thread. It's not intentional mind you, I guess it's just the main focus is greenery since the setting of this thread is mostly forest.

We do have a beach here in the haven though that as yet hasn't gotten a lot of focus. So it would be rather nice to see more water pics and the like as well. Basically, just post whatever.. I'd welcome just about anything. ^^

[color=#993300]Funky, I just finished processing a couple. Hope they're good enough....

Game Recommendation - The Long Dark

and yes, you will see that one a lot.
The Long Dark is a Game about Exploration, Survival, and, Ulimately, Death.

You crashland in the north canadian ice tundra and have to survive a Sandbox.
the game depicts a wonderful nature with altho harsh conditions at times.

Storms, Fog and hostile wildlife will make your life a living hell... that froze over.

but still, navigating the froze nature is a wonderful experience, every find is a party, a jackpot so to say. cracking open the can of Beans n Pork and your new pair of mittens you just found in a tossed aside backpack feels incredibly satisfying.

You'll apreciate the small things, and if you get a big find - like a hatchet, a knife or a hunting rifle - holy cow, you are the King of the Forest!

I love it. a story mode is planned, for now theres only 2 sandbox maps with a total of 10 km² to explore

Is that not like The Last of Us?

the Last of Us had enemies.

The Long Dark has only You, and the Wilderness. Nothing else.
and you'll have to watch your basic needs. Hunger, thirst, coldness, fatigue and the Energy you have left

will post some screenshots from my next run. probably tomorrow

Lost in Blue?

except that its mostly white

Hey sorry for the quick post the other day. lol, I got on, posted a reply to sneaky thinking I had more time.. but I was kicked off the computer by someone who needed it sooner than I thought.

Now I have to get ready for work and won't be back till late, but in my effort to make sure this thread stays active, I wanted to post a few quick replies.


@Neo
That music is nice! I like the art used in the video too. It suits the haven wonderfully.


@Sneaky
Those pics are definity good enough. They look great! ^^ I can tell already you'll make a great addition to the haven.


@Melly
That game sounds right up my alley. I play sandbox and builder games a lot. I have terrira, starbound, and minecraft to name a few. Recently I played an MC modpack called "crash landing." The premise is basically the same.

In crash landing, you start on a world with mostly just sand and whatever your pod held. You have to finish quests and find water fast, or else you die.. and as it's a hardcore map, if you die to have to start all over.


@Shane
Hi there again Shane. You mentioned lost in blue.. I liked the series alot, despite some of it's major flaws.. well, all expect the one for the Wii, which made travel really frustrating.

What flaws? I've never played them.
