Thread: 1.0 vs ARR Areas - A Visual Comparison

The actual 1.0 Aetheryte Plaza was on the Upper Decks:


The main issue is that Limsa's Upper decks changed a lot from 1.0 to now, and though geographically in the map the old plaza would have been somewhere roughly where The Aftcasle currently is, the old building is just completely gone. The whole area has been redesigned almost entirely.

Looking from the same passageway from The Drowning Wrench:
1.0 (Building with old Aetheryte Plaza in view on the left-center)


ARR (The Aftcastle in view instead of old building)


The only feature that remains is the building to the right, and even that had its bridge changed from wood to stone.
