No, and in a lot of places, repeat trips are fun.
I agree. Nobody says you can't revisit locations you enjoy.

I agree. Nobody says you can't revisit locations you enjoy.
<Snipped quote by System>
Especially if they're dynamic. There's a lot of malls that are really fun.
<Snipped quote by Audacious>
What kinds of malls does the IA have?
<Snipped quote by System>
Massive ones. You can find just about anything.
<Snipped quote by Audacious>
How do you navigate them if they're that large?
<Snipped quote by System>
There's transportation within. Shuttles, teleportation. The works.
<Snipped quote by Audacious>
Shuttles internal to a mall? Impressive.
<Snipped quote by System>
Yep, not in all of them, but several.
<Snipped quote by Audacious>
How long did it take to build up the IA to that degree?
<Snipped quote by System>
Not terribly long, believe it or not. Many sub-societies built up the infrastructure independently. That's why the IA's aesthetic doesn't really have a standard look. Architecture varies a lot in style.
<Snipped quote by Audacious>
Were they already at that level of scientific advancement?
<Snipped quote by System>
No, but it wasn't hard to get some help on that front without losing much in the way of cultural identity.
<Snipped quote by Audacious>
That sounds like a difficult problem to solve.
<Snipped quote by System>
*Shrugs*
It's not hard to say, "Hey dudes, we could use some teleporters and stuff."
<Snipped quote by Audacious>
*Laughs*
Maybe. There's a bit more to it in my experience.
<Snipped quote by System>
It's all paperwork and whatnot, but the important stuff is easy.
<Snipped quote by Audacious>
You'd know better than I.
<Snipped quote by System>
Barring time differences across dimensions, we're roughly the same age as the IA in the grand scheme of Existence. Hard to believe when you think about it. We were kids during its early growth.
<Snipped quote by GalaxyRaider>
That does surprise me.
