Hooyaah 2,827 Posted September 18, 2013 Share Posted September 18, 2013 (edited) I love that location in which to barter in the remote desert. The music there is boogie woogie music from the 1930's. Perhaps Boogie Woogie Taverna Scarab would work for a designation. Just a thought; nice find to name, btw, TC. Oh, and I forgot to mention that happy hour there is just after dark.

Ysne58 236 Posted September 18, 2013 Share Posted September 18, 2013 That does have a certain ring to it. "Boogie Woogie Taverna/Cantina Scarab" Either Taverna or Cantina would fit. 1 Link to comment
Hooyaah 2,827 Posted September 18, 2013 Share Posted September 18, 2013 If using the Latin word for scarabs, pehaps "Boogie Woogie Taverna Scarabei" would suffice. Link to comment
Flix 5,116 Posted September 18, 2013 Share Posted September 18, 2013 That's starting to sound a little long and goofy to me, even if it is kind of an easter egg. Link to comment
Ysne58 236 Posted September 18, 2013 Share Posted September 18, 2013 So, is it ok to start a thread for suggestions for names for this place, with a poll to follow? Link to comment
Knuckles 904 Posted September 18, 2013 Share Posted September 18, 2013 Sounds good to me Link to comment
Flix 5,116 Posted September 19, 2013 Share Posted September 19, 2013 I hate to be argumentative but the isn't even boogie woogie (which is blues), it's jazz based on John Williams' Cantina Band #1. My vote is for "Scarab Cantina." Scarab is a nice lore-friendly description and Cantina hints at the Star Wars reference. Link to comment
gogoblender 3,071 Posted September 19, 2013 Share Posted September 19, 2013 I thought it was fascinating to stumble across. Agreed ^^ That "desert jazz bar" directly references one of the most famous scenes from one of the biggest money maker movies of all time we even have this smiley in honor of the movie here at DarkMatters, and an Easter Egg page for it on the Wiki: gogo p.s. Name change could be interesting as it could be made more precise as a title. Something that references STar Wars is good, with Cantina in it definitely, but we'll need something to predicate it with? perhaps desert or something else to be true to geographic references as we have done in past when there were no original names Link to comment
Schot 407 Posted September 19, 2013 Author Share Posted September 19, 2013 And a few visual references I think are pretty cool. http://cantinacustoms.tripod.com/id20.htm Model of star wars cantina map of star wars bar in Sacred 2 draft of bar taps bar taps in sacred 2 star wars bar 1 Link to comment
gogoblender 3,071 Posted September 19, 2013 Share Posted September 19, 2013 omgod Schot That's so...awesome im jellous and hate you gogo p.s. what the heck made you think of doing that to get this info? Link to comment
Ysne58 236 Posted September 19, 2013 Share Posted September 19, 2013 How about Desert Scarab Cantina then? 1 Link to comment
gogoblender 3,071 Posted September 19, 2013 Share Posted September 19, 2013 I think we're moving towards accuracry for the reference in our discussions via geography and reference Since this is difect reference form star wars probably something like Desert Cantina or Mos Eisley Cantina or Star Wars Cantina Ysne, did you see Schot's post? It shows how that desert jazz bar is an almost perfect copy from the Mos Eisley Cantina from Star Wars gogo :0 gogo Link to comment
Ysne58 236 Posted September 19, 2013 Share Posted September 19, 2013 I did and it's awesome. Link to comment
Knuckles 904 Posted September 19, 2013 Share Posted September 19, 2013 personally I like the Desert Cantina Anyone looking at name will know immediately what region it's in and Cantina is a nice 'tip of the hat' to Star wars Link to comment
gogoblender 3,071 Posted September 19, 2013 Share Posted September 19, 2013 ahahah, high five Desert Cantina was my favorite too YSne, the scarab idea is neat, and was well noted by yout, but I think I've seen scarabs in other places in game as well? This way we hit geography, and star wars reference all at once, and add a bit of mystique by using the word cantina only... people in the "know" will get it. to not do star wars, as you mention Knuckles, is great and rather intriguing with just that as a title So be it gogo Link to comment
