Does anyone care about realistic depiction of places, if the story isn't necessarily dependent on accuracy?
To elaborate, I've had this dilemma with Holoturismo where it's obvious-but-not-spelled-out that it's set in Tokyo, a place with a robust system of roads and expressways that's well documented and mapped out, but I'm leaning heavily towards just making things up for the story instead of trying to be constrained by real routes and places. Reason being that I don't have first hand experience with the Shutoku expressway. I never drove on it except for videogames, I couldn't tell you what route is named what, where where it begins or where it ends.
But I could draw up my own routes based on the information I do know, and make up something similar, but not an accurate model of what exists today.
I guess I already know the answer to that, but curious what others think.
