    This is like the kinda movie that starts with a planetary establishing shot and then you assume it takes place in a different planet, but the plot twist is just global warming and it was earth all along

        Waterworld was a damn cool movie overall. Last time I watched it as a kid though, but I keep the memory of a cool movie.

            Good to know! It’s not that I knowingly avoided it to keep memories pristine, I just somehow never revisited it. But now I kinda feel like it

    Plus they’d have to use turnwise and widdershins since every direction is north or south.

    Wait… is Discworld Antarctica?

    Is that where Italy’s other boot has been? The Romans were looking everywhere for that!

    This is more like polarity shift Antarctica where sea level stays similar to current levels. Way back in college I used melted antarctica with sea level rise for an evolutionary biology seminar. And it is much less interesting.

      Still looks cool. You have one major land mass and some sizeable islands, so lots of opportunity for different cultures to emerge.

    I actually did use a rotated map of under-ice Antarctica as the world map for a campaign I made. It worked really well. Realistic looking terrain I didn’t need to try to plan myself and unfamiliar wnough to most people that they wouldn’t recognize it at a glance.
