Last Zone (SPOILER)

[ocridion]

Came here just to look for a thread like this. Last zone was excellent, first time we've had a zone at all similar to them - especially the canal zone. So pretty.
Was planning on doing alot here with friends but...

Then they took it away. I had alot of fun and happiness exploring this map with my friends and now I'm just depressed going to it.

I get the point of drawing us in and taking it away for story affect, but what they've done is permanent and needn't be. I'm not 6. Ive learnt the lessons they're trying to teach me.

It's such an amazing and massive asset to lose so quickly and easily just for sake of story. The amount of dev hours that went into cradting such a big great area just to drop it so casually.

I hope it comes back and we can use it.
We get enough disappointment irl, we don't simulate it in our games.

Acceptance is also a lesson.

Story wise? Yeah, I get that. Though the quality of game or removal of it should not be be justified purely because of an in-game lesson of the story. If it was because of game or server limitations, absolutely fine. Though creating something amazing, and taking it away, for - what I consider - shallow reasons feels like a waste. Waste is the only reason why I bring it up.

For what it's worth for the others, you can visit it via new game+ right now. Not a problem.

Yes. One they've been hitting us over the head with for three expansions now. Honestly, I think they need to take their own advice about letting go and stop rehashing old plotlines and themes.

If only they didn't kill of the political drama at the end of ShB and early EW.

Honestly the "Acceptance is also a lesson." reply is also just kind of arrogant and short sighted to me, if not belittling of other's feedback. This could be the response to every post on this forum and SE would never get any feedback. Blind "Acceptance" is not a good lesson - undermines the Scions and the store of FF, and reeks of settling with no motivation to enact change for the better.

Just take the feedback that we liked the area and don't wanna see it die for story reasons. xD

I'd say the fact that this is your reaction means that they did a good job trying to make you feel the way they wanted you to about it lol.
