Thread: Stuff I Miss From 1.0

I really hate the shard farming.

There was also shard farming at the beginning in 1.0
I remember that I farmed Dodos who dropped wind shards.

And lighting elementals in the caves around Humblehearth to get some lighting crystals for weaver.

I find the new Coerthas Central Highlands good, but I miss the Coerthas Central Lowlands (the area around Camp Glory).

But each zone, even with the "repeats" seemed to be vast and there were many variations in the landscape. Different camps and steads, and stone archways and bridges and towers - no area in 1.0 seemed to me like it was dull or boring or without the variation. Even the "maze" landscape of gridania felt very nice. A pain to navigate with a map, but it felt very much like a deep forest once could get lost in.

They not just copied a rock, they copied a whole montain. They not just copied grass, they copied the whole grassland. Each canyon in the same region was the same canyon, from the entry to the exit.

I never noticed this copying of whole mountains and the same exact canyons. But if this were true that would be very upsetting once it was noticed.

How did you even play version 1 for more than a few hours without logging off and chucking the box/case in the garbage?
I wasted $90 on that steaming pile of crap's collectors edition, and was absolutely horrified, astonished and angry that this was where my money went.
I'd never in my entire life payed for a game that was so bad, till then.

To me your thoughts and opinions are rather meaningless if you actually thought version 1 was anything other than absolute trash.

I wouldn't know.
I wasn't willing to give it another shot till after even the dev's where fired for there ineptness and the game was restarted almost from scratch.
