(PSN)ITS_TH3GOD Posted September 17, 2021 Share Posted September 17, 2021 Ok now I do know we've a quest already called "the old war" but do yall really consider that the old war? IMHO it would've been better lore wise if DE had formally put out an old war quest. I mean like go back in time to actually see how the orokin was, a side quest about how the zaramin ten zero happened, magulis' death, natah' infiltration of the oroking (also how the sentients were created) the beginning of the orokin's fall..etc etc you get the gist...don't get me wrong, I am glad that we're finally getting a new quest/activity but I just think they should've started by showing us what really happened or to an extent make us go through it.what do yall think?

Loza03 Posted September 17, 2021 Share Posted September 17, 2021 I think that they keep the old war in some kind of mystery on purpose. It's something in the distant past and the Tenno pretty explicitly have fragmented memories of it. Sometimes, it's better to not show something, because a player's own imagination of what happened will always be better to them. Also, we're confirmed to be getting some flashbacks in the New War if the Tennocon demonstration is anything to go by. Wouldn't shock me if more than a few took place during the Old War.

SneakyErvin Posted September 17, 2021 Share Posted September 17, 2021 It is probably avoided since they want it to feel immersive when we do quests with our Tenno. The Old War is a vague fragmented memory of our Tenno. To put it in pen and paper rpg terms, DE avoids being the meta-GM. They wont force feed us info that our character possibly couldnt know and they dont make use of their knowledge about our character to make things impossible for us to achieve.

(PSN)Unstar Posted September 17, 2021 Share Posted September 17, 2021 I don't think there's much value in rehashing lore that we already know. And it would be a ton of work for DE to make it. Frankly, I don't think it's worth anyone's time, compared to all the other stuff they could be working on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
