I have said before to folks who wish they played 1.x that 1.x was a horrific mass of technical jank and questionable design choices. It's just a horrific mass of technical jank and poor design choices that we can, on occasion, be nostalgic about. Now that we're at a safe distance.

And instead of a search engine, you got to go wander through each market ward, talking to each retainer at each stall to see if they were selling things! Doesn't that sound amazing?
