Stuff I Miss From 1.0

[Alhanelem]

Why did you completely destroy Coerthas?

I'm really freaking puzzled at what you liked so much about coerthas in 1.0.

The whole zone was the same set of grass and rock patterns repeated 1000 times. It looked nice in the same way 1.0 shroud looked nice, but the same repetitive terrain over and over killed it. I can understand liking the coerthas *music* but the zone itself?

Because it's the sort of place I would live in if I could. I don't care for the fact is was mostly repeated, but the overall tone, style, and feel was something that struck a strong chord with me.

More interesting than the land of snow covered rubble in any case.

It was the general aesthetic of the zone, it had a wild, melancholy vibe to it.


The music, haunting and ephemeral mixed in with the sounds of wolves, the sound of the wind

Coerthas theme

The dangers inherant to the zone, avoiding mobs that could one hit you.

What I loved about it was the fact that it was so huge and sparse, it's like going camping irl. It's to get away from the crowds. In coerthas 1.0 you could go somewhere and know there would be nobody there.

No F.A.T.E.S

No DoL clamouring away

No chocobo whistles insessantly going off.

It was just peaceful

The black shroud was repetitive?



I'm not seeing it.

Good lord, that map was awful. So glad that place is gone.
