    Knowing how many places in the US have the names of some other random place when they just don't butcher indigenous names, it's likely it is Mars, New Mexico or something like that.

        Speaking of Pennsylvania and uninhabitable hellscapes, the ghost town of Centralia has a coal fire that has been burning since 1962. An abandoned section of state highway was covered with miles of graffiti until it was covered up a few years ago.

    perhaps the diablo 4 ad campaign is a bit too much, if they had to turn NYC into this for it...

    Pretty sure it's the US, the terrain looks like water flowed through it at some point.

      It does so on Mars as well

      The entire crater where curiosity roams used to be a freshwater lake

        The big success story of the Mars rover and orbiter missions has been the confirmation of Mars as a former water world, with current massive deposits of water ice almost everywhere that would be accessible with a plain old backhoe if we could land one. For example there's a subsurface glacier in Utopia Planitia starting at just a few metres under the dirt that has more water, in the form of ice, than Lake Superior here on Earth.
