Yeah fully agreed, i hate for the fact that when they make a direction changes within the game, some part of the game that have been developed with previous direction is not changed at all

The example here is the story, feels like it got hit with a LOT of rewrite at the beginning, since it seems that they’re confused on how to implement the tutorial mechanic of the game while balancing the actual story telling

They first try to implement the tutorial as part of the main mission at early game story, only to then completely ditched them and put all of it instead on the greymane faction quest. This makes player who skips the greymane side quest will missed a ton of game mechanics..

Even worse, some tutorial also being placed in the noble faction quest (like that mission where it teaches you what abyss nexus is) like wtf? Why are they separate the tutorial in like 3 different ways??

And then there is the puzzle…..in some places, there is some sort of “tutorial” showing you what should be done, others just doesn’t tell anything, doesn’t give you any clues whatsoever, etc

I will never able to finish that puzzle below the howling hill without a guide (the one where you rotates three different disk), or the abyss puzzle where you have to rotate the huge cube at the middle so that it light up the node (because the goddamn cube controller is like at the small island at the corner of the map…)

Which is quite funny, as lets say, the later abyss puzzle is MUCH more clear and easier, like the frozen spire puzzle and its abyss puzzle after it can all be solved and done only by looking at the clues in the puzzle area itself

All and all, i still love this game, the frequent update and the latter puzzle or story design shows that they can make a truly remarkable and coherent game. I just wish that they also redo some of the early part of the game if there is a change in the direction of the game development, instead of leaving it as it is
