Tips for Threads Based on Version 1.0

[Anonymoose]

Version 1.0 left a lot of open doors behind. Characters that we were told were important are gone, mysteries begun were never solved, and some old stories seem to have been stripped and rebuilt for A Realm Reborn. This leaves Square Enix with a few options when it comes to these instances.

• Tell us to forget it happened.
• Let Ferne answer the unanswered in the forums at his leisure
• Use unfinished lore from 1.0 quests as the background for ARR sidequests

If SE were to do either of the latter, we should make it easier on them by making broadly focused, clearly labeled threads and using those to come up with the questions required to close the book on that section. If Ferne drops by on a quiet day and wants to close some old chapters, he can; if there are answers coming in ARR, he can let us know; or, he can take our notes back to the Lore Lead and say, "Hey, I've got a list of things we can use to flesh out some sidequests!" I propose we just use the names of the story arcs as thread titles and SOMEWHERE in that thread (preferably the OP) keep a list of the at-present-unknown.

[Version 1.0] Lominsan Introduction
[Version 1.0] Path of the Twelve Arc
[Version 1.0] Alchemist Arc
Etc. Etc.

I'll continue logging all the lore we lost over at GE, starting with the easiest cases to close. Perhaps we may get some answers yet?
