What are your favourite locations/regions in this game?

Mine is definitely the Lonely Lighthouse out in Desolation Point. It's such a cozy little place and a cool shelter to have. Desolation Point in general is an interesting region.

Most of my runs just get me to the Quonset Garage for the long term, late game Interloper — where the whole Coastal Highway just becomes a backyard for projects and a starting point for any escapades.

If there was a way to move containers and keep everything neatly organized, I would probably return to Mountaineer's Hut — maybe it is pure nostalgia but this spot just feels special.. Bed bonus is great too.

Oh, and I have a soft spot for the Cannery Worker Residences in the Bleak Inlet. Great regional base, that fishing hut nearby is a blessing.

I am still not great at the game but after all my hours on Great Bear Island, almost every location became somehow important to me, there is always a memory, a story or a close call situation that changed even the most insignificant spots into significant ones.

Still, there are so many regions that I am not yet familiar with.
