Survival Landscape

I'm 99% sure I posted this idea already. But suck it up because you're getting it again.

My idea is for a huge open lands project in which you could hike around for days or weeks or months and count on a somewhat steady stream of food. How, you ask?

Well, there's going to be small maintained gardens and crops for you to utilize. And there will be animals to hunt as well. All access will be managed carefully so that nothing is overused. The maintenance on these crops and herds will be done as behind the scene as possible. So in that sense it's kind of like Disneyland.

The idea is that there really isn't a place where you can do this without taking your life into your own hands. In my open space world you can venture out and explore and learn survival techniques but also be reasonably assured you'll be able to find food and clean water when you need it. And if things get really desperate there are people who occasionally roll through and can help you out.

Not that there wouldn't be danger. We're gonna release some mountain lions and other predators, too. It should be as natural an environment as possible. And it would be huge.

I'm not opposed to further Disneyfication by building some cool structures hidden in the landscape for you to find and explore. Caves, temples, etc.

It would be kind of fake, but also very real.

Choose your own adv....THIS IS AMAZING!

The internet. It's a powerful tool. One that allows us glimpses into worlds beyond and regions untouched. And yet no one has used it to fully explore the wonder that is Choose Your Own Adventure.

I'm talking a CYOA with lights and sounds and pictures and 4,000 alternate endings created by users. Fan fiction meets wikipedia meets online comic book meets fucking awesome. A world where every choice takes you someplace new and someplace new after that and everything is always evolving.

I KNOW this could work and could be insanely popular (amongst nerds).

I know video games are allowing users a lot more creative control...but this seems so different somehow. Nothing would need to be contained. And the user edit features would help to ensure everything stayed canoninical. Or as canon-like as the people wanted.

PS: I think it makes sense to start giving our posts more exciting titles. Studies show it increases readership by 900%.
