Sightseeing...

[Camate]

Greetings,

While the timing for implementation has not yet been finalized, we’re currently looking into easing the requirements for weather. As an example of the changes we have planned, we’ll be making it so both fair and clear weather fulfills the requirements for the Sightseeing Log.

This is great news

Thank you, thank you, thank you! That's definitely good to hear. I may start Sightseeing again soon, now.

It's still crap, give us Meteo Prism to change the meteo ( only affect the characters ) !

I have not done any of it sides the starting quest but now that they are going to fix the weather aspect I might just start this soon.

Would the sightseeing log riddle text change? While I do appreciate the easing of the requirements does this mean that we won't see quite what was truly meant to be seen? I mean there must have been a reason why the developers chose such specific requirements other than just the location, assuming it wasn't simply "how could we make this as casual activity as painful and time-consuming as possible?".

While I originally wasn't complaining about the original concept of the sightseeing log, I now find myself stuck on #019 (was lucky on #018 though).
All my in-game time I go there every "day" at 8 am to check the weather, when I know it will be 8am soon I don't start a dungeon or anything. I leave the game on day and night, so that I can take a glimps at the time/weather whenever possible, and it's been now FIVE (5!) real-life days that I have not been able to get it and I am online and around the comp quite a lot (even now at work), I just can't be there 24/7.
I know the weather was right once in that time while I was afk taking my daughter to bed. I can't continue with the rest of the Sightseeing because of this one entry, it truly sucks.
I honestly wouldn't mind it so much if I was able to continue with the rest of the places, but like this I can't, for 5 days already.

We are not powerful enough yet to use the "Echo" at our own will...

I'm assuming that the riddle won't change, but that the entries where there is no clear indication of the weather conditions will be eased.


For example entry #4 says:

"Back-breakin', arse-bustin' work, it is. But seein' me vessels ridin' the winds, soarin' off to far lands where me legs will never carry me - well at least me sweat and blood ain't been for naught, eh?" Such were the laborer's words and I would see as he saw.

There is no real indication of the weather in this riddle, so I can imagine that the weather criteria for entries such as this will be eased up a bit.

Sightseeing should play a fly-in cutscene when you emote in the proper place; showing the "sight" in a dynamic and unique way. This log is a horribly veiled waste of time.
