Remember the “wood between the worlds” in “The Magician’s Nephew”? The long perspective hallway with randomly-connected doors in “Yellow Submarine”? Something like that, perhaps. Or even that endless highway in “Final Fantasy X”, where you might meet other travelers and have random monster encounters while traveling to the next city.

Perhaps the connectivity of the scenic route could change from time to time, so you need to do a bit of exploring. Exploring could be rewarded. Get people out there looking at things and talking to others, trading tips, like the helpful strangers in “Journey”. And perhaps the scenic route could connect to all those old spaces currently off the grid, the ones you need to have bookmarked to reach. It would be another motive for exploration. What’s out there that most people don’t know about? Let me show you…

If you want to turn Home into a game, this is one obvious way to do it.

Anyways, I did enjoy this article with its musings of where Home might be headed in the future. I’m very glad for the locomotive improvements, but cant help think Home’s navigator system now bogs this idea down. It’d be great to see a vast plain or exploreable expanse between one space and the next. Call me boring but, I’d still like to see some serious roads connecting all spaces. Just to cruise them with friends in Home would be cool. Just think of all the bits of car fluff you could sell to us Sony!!!
