hozz1235 Posted February 26, 2020 Share Posted February 26, 2020 (edited) I love this place! I always look forward to making this my final zone to visit during a run. It has everything I like: TONS of exploration, wildlife, caves, harshness, remoteness... I always feel somewhat...resigned after completely mapping/exploring HRV...

dahemac Posted February 26, 2020 Share Posted February 26, 2020 (edited) EDIT: lol, I was thinking of Pleasant Valley lol. Cant think of a reason to go through Hushed River Valleys again. lol I am currently back in Hushed River Valley searching the new buildings for books of matches and stump remover. It is nice. Lots of tasty easy-to-kill bears. Gonna go see if the plane crash changed the map any at the north end. Nice place, but stormy.

I believe you're referring to the Mountain Town region. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As of the Episode 3, there's now a crash site in PV. It's another jet plane, similar to TWM. I know it's confusing, there's now 3 plane crash sites. Quite a plane magnet, Great Bear is. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BareSkin Posted February 29, 2020 Share Posted February 29, 2020 I HATE HRV. All this "forbidden if you don't have a hatchet" thing just feels ridiculous. However I think it could be my best map without this design choice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Glad to see the love for HRV, it's one of the maps I enjoy most with its rich detail and the feeling of truly living off the grid without man-made structures. However the safe subterranean area that runs across the map holds you back from improving your skills the way TWM lets you. Sure, it too has a well developed cave system but with HRV you can basically run around in the tunnels like a cavetroll and stick your head up once in a while to gather a concentration of valuable resources and throw yourself right back down. I'd like to see something different in the upcoming added maps. While I too look forward to another remote area I would hope that it's something with very limited, if any, shelters. A map that truly challenge our survival skills, now that we have a map that truly challenge our bowhunting skills.

Azdrawee Posted March 15, 2020 Share Posted March 15, 2020 I think it's good that it's in the game, but honestly, I barely venture there. It's not worth it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The true fun in HRV is to NOT bring a hatchet and STILL make it past the brushes And yes, you can bypass every important road block in some way. You can get to and away from every important place if you just know how. That being said ... because you can, it begs the question how sensible this design choice actually is. It feels artifical and overly harsh on Interlopers, plus it (again .....) puts emphasis on beating mechanics of the game rather than the game itself.
