I mean, am I wrong? Doesn't it seem like they think Menzo is like right next door?
Books mention Menzo, Minthara's from Menzo, if you play a Drow, certain dialogues state you are from there...
So is it me?
Anyway, the feedback is that other Drow places exist. Unless it's super imperative to the story, can we have some other Drow cities mentioned and such in the game? Seriously, unless Menzo is critical to the story, why not make up some new Drow city-state that is doing something for a change?
Or even more than 1 new Drow city-state! And be creative. Give us some new Drow lore and such.
And, ya know, not every Drow society has to be the same. Develop something unique and fun. Give us a change, but explain how and why it is different.
You know, maybe males have more rights or they are a totally warring city-state with various factions. Whatever. Run with it.
No you are not wrong. Realisitcally the amount of underdark a drow would need to traverse from the city of spiders to Baldur's gate would be monumental. The underdark is interconnected but the risk would be insane. It would be safer for a drow to walk during the day in his underpants banging a big drum singing "I am a drow drow drow". If it is 3000 miles as a crow flies the tunnels and caves of the underdark would be 10 times longer. Could you imagine the legions upon legions of illithids, beholder nests etc. you would need to navigate? Plenty of Lolth drow spotted about the underdark however obviously.
The TAGS should therefore be "underdark" non specific or "lolth sworn". Unless of course the illithid ship warped into the underdark or during a night raid and nicked a few drows to mix up the bash? Meh. I mean with enough mental gymnastics you could make it work I suppose.
