    Can we get a way to play the original Castrum Meridianum again?

    To be clear, I understand why it made sense to adjust it because the original instance was pretty clunky to run through. And not necessarily saying they should bring the old one into any roulettes.

    At the same time, I was expecting they'd put a little bit more effort into the rework than they did. They gut about half the level and removed some storyline bits. It just kind of feels rushed. I was hoping for something that was faster paced but wasn't so watered down. It'd be nice if we had a way to replay the original instance somehow, even if only solo/unsynced.

    When they prune some ARR 2.x quests to make it shorter, I heard that they also pruned the quests where Tataru tried out different jobs instead of just Arcanist then gave up.


    I guess it is inevitable for some story elements get pruned whether SE tries to steamline the player's experience, as everything detail in this game is packed full of lore.
