hozz1235 Posted November 1, 2021 Share Posted November 1, 2021 ...anywhere on Great Bear, where would it be? Feel free to explain why and attach a screenshot of your location! Don't worry about accessibility or any of that other "silly" stuff! Just for fun. I have yet to determine but will post when I do. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Leeanda Posted November 1, 2021 Share Posted November 1, 2021 Good question! I think it'd have to be marsh ridge. It's got a great view, quiet with plenty of birch and easy access to MT, mystery and BR without a long trek! 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lord of the Long Dark Posted November 2, 2021 Share Posted November 2, 2021 I’d prefer a cave to a house so I can stave off cabin fever and it would be in pleasant Valley within a minute walk of the farmhouse. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What if there was no such thing as cabin fever? Hmm..couldn't one also get "cave fever"? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ajb1978 Posted November 2, 2021 Share Posted November 2, 2021 I'd just directly move into Paradise Meadows. Straighten the furniture, pick up that overturned plant, sweep and generally clean house. Maybe head into Milton and scavenge materials from other houses to fix the place up a bit, repair the kitchen cabinets, etc. 5 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pınar51-06 Posted November 2, 2021 Share Posted November 2, 2021 Hushed River Valley was never my favourite but ı guess ı wanna live in a house near Monolith Lake. Between the falls, close to an amazing lake and a friendly (!) moose, ıt would be cool. Also Misandthrope’s Homestad in Coastal Highway is another good option and ı guess ıt feels more loud and alive with wildlife, coastal town and abandoned houses around the town. 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hozz1235 Posted November 2, 2021 Author Share Posted November 2, 2021 Found one possible place for my house. Level out this area and have windows at all overlook places. 107163523_TheLongDark2021-11-0217-21-45.mp4 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
piddy3825 Posted November 4, 2021 Share Posted November 4, 2021 After very much internal debate, I finally found my ideal spot. It would involve razing the broken lighthouse in Bleak Inlet. I would go course salvage that 6 burner stove, why waste a good stove! First off, the view from the top of the hill there is fantastic. The dock is in fairly good shape too, so when rescue final does come, I'll be able to see em coming and can run right down and meet them at the waters edge... 5 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, I thought of that too, but then if I wanted to live in a light house, I figured I could just move to DP. at least in DP I wouldn't have to deal with timber wolves. I figured the bonus of living in BI would be the continued access to the cannery and it looks like if things got better, I'd also already have a boat that was docked nearby. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So if you could demo and build a house at either of those locations, which one would you choose (all other factors aside)? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm leaning more towards Bleak Inlet in that case. Considering that I have access to two fishing shacks on either side of spit and an active bear cave closely nearby as well. Not to mention being able to find coal that is routinely unearthed in the nearby destroyed cannery employees cabins. Then there is the prolific deer population as well as rabbits in the same area as the bear den. And lastly continued access to the machine shop at the cannery when the need arises. All things considered, with the exception of having to deal with the timber wolves, BI offers a vastly superior advantage to amenities than does DP. 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kranium Posted November 4, 2021 Share Posted November 4, 2021 2nd vote for HRV by Monolith Lake. Although it would still be closer to another building than my current home IRL haha. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kranium Posted November 5, 2021 Share Posted November 5, 2021 I don't like doxxing myself, so I'll only say interior/northern BC. Our ranch is surrounded by "crown land" & we have a number of horses and cattle etc. I'm intimately familiar with the landscapes & weather in this game! lol 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stone Posted November 5, 2021 Share Posted November 5, 2021 Marsh ridge and Monolith Lake - excellent picks! There's something really special about Monolith Lake. If only it had better transport links... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Glflegolas Posted November 6, 2021 Share Posted November 6, 2021 I would very much like to have a house at Monolith Lake, although I don't think I'd want to live there. It'd be more of a vacation home to me. The exact location would be on the west side of the lake. For a place to live longer-term, Coastal Highway is hard to beat. I particularly like the two-story house on Misanthrope's Homestead, though there are a couple modifications I'd like to make to it. Firstly, I'd build a dock somewhere on the coastline, so that I have easy access to the ocean for transportation. Secondly, that house really needs a woodstove or two. Get the 6-burner stove from the Crumbling Lighthouse for the kitchen (my neighbours once brought a cook stove to an island cabin using a dory). For added bonus, how about getting a wood stove from a crumbing cabin and putting it where the TV now sits? Oh, and while I'm at it, might as well move the workbench from Fishing Camp into the basement, no? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd be taking the hood off of one of the cars to use as a sled, which would be used to haul a couple of stoves to my new crib. Of course, I'd have a team of Reindeer all hitched up to pull my hoodsleigh around as I went about looting and salvaging the region of its salvageable building materials. All those planks laying around just waiting to be repurposed! Imagine what you could do with all those pallets! I can imagine flattening out all those left over tin cans and using them as roof materials. You're what? Tin roof Rusted! 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
