Desert city of Shapeir in Quest for Glory II is my choice. Even with its EGA graphics, it produced a town full of character and mystery that many modern games can't seem to nail down even with bleeding edge graphics.

Must it be in a RPG or Adventure? If not, I was going to say Ravenholm from Half-Life 2...

HL2 is Action(fps)/Adventure, so yes, it counts, but why Ravenholm?
lol, it's a Ghost Town(or at least, it is when you play)...

Anyway, to Answer the OP, i never thought about it...

i may have to With Caldera from Morrowind, funny since i don't like The Imperials, but it may be that i replayed Morrowind so many times that eventually grew on me.

Also, after Replaying The Witcher 2, Flotsam is really growing on me right now...

People will likely balk at my choice but i always liked Oerba in FFXIII the place has a great atmosphere for an abandoned town it just has a run down beauty about it. I really enjoyed that part of the game.

Well, he only said "town." He never specified what kind of town it had to be.

Also, it's not a ghost town... unless you don't count Father Grigori and his "congregation", that is. LOL.

Let me think ...

It must be the City of NEVERWINTER

Also Anvil and Skingrad in Oblivion.

Dalaran in Wrath of the Lich King. LOVED the layout and organization of everything. Laggy as hell but looks great and always full gives that MMO feel unlike Shattrah were everyone was flying.

Heh, same, though I also like various towns from Okami, hell I just love that game in general. OP said adventure game so why not? Also your Crescent Isle base from Skies of Arcadia Legends plus Yafutoma. The former because you get a nice sense of achievement, and the latter because of dem washtubs you travel around the town in.

I loved all of the cities in Oblivion, including the ones in Shivering Isle. :D

More recently, I've taken a liking to Wellspring in RAGE. It's not a big place, but I like the feel of it, more than anything. Like all cities in RAGE, it changes over time, which is something Kirkwall should have done, but I digress.

Yokosuka in Shenmue. Atleast I'm pretty sure it was Yokosuka, that may have been the starting area and the city itself was Yokohama. I don't know, I was too busy looking for the black car that sped through the day the rain turned to snow and buying food that couldn't be eaten.

Onett, Twoson, and Summers from Earthbound.

if i had to pick though, id go with Twoson, it had that girl-next-door kind of charm.

It's a hard pick.. but all things considered I'd have to say New Vegas. Unique, complex, interesting.. although they were a bit "generous" with the prostititutes.

Oh, and GET OUT OF THE FOUNTAIN! lol...

Wow, that's a difficult question, city environments are my absolute favourites. Good topic, OP :) I thought that the cities of Baldur's Gate and Athkatla in BG1 & 2 were very well done, and I also remember loving New Reno in Fallout 2, Tarant in Arcanum, and Beregost in BG1. As far as recent (ish) games go, then I agree with Slimgrin. Vizima in Witcher 1 was exceptionally lovely. Baldur's Gate just about edges the others out, just because to my mind d&d + extreme nostalgia = WIN.

Vizima from TW 1. And Karsonis from Gothic 2. Both had incredible atmosphere...

The various headquarters from the Suikoden games.

Also, while not a town, I would like to nominate the Yggdrasil from Xenogears. It is a sand ship that is modified into an airship and is then modified into a massive giant robot that dwarfs all of the other giant robots in the series.

Borealis from Anarchy Online, perhaps tied with Newland City.

Sigil, it was so different from anything else I've ever encountered.

The flying town in Chrono Trigger was a distant second.

The one that made the biggest impression on me was Athkatla from BG2 - when you bust out of Irenicus' dungeon, and there's that scene with all the mages, and then the middle-eastern type music starts playing as you walk around Waukeen's Promenade.

Jerusalem from AC was also great fun. I absolutely *cannot wait* to check out Constantinople in the next one.

Dalaran was great. Pretty colors and fun NPCs.

Hah, I loved flying up to the highest tower in the city and looking down at it. Then jumping down with the parachute cloak, feelin' like a boss.

DC in Fallout 3. So vast that I'd kind of forgotten it was all one city. Main storyline of F3 was a bit pants I thought, but the atmosphere was bloody marvellous. Places like Germantown (the nurses tents) and that house (in the Pennsylvania area?) with the Mr Handy that read bedtime poetry to long dead children - ahh, real shivers down the spine stuff there.
