Hello! it’s something I wondered when the new, beautiful lion’s arch was released earlier- if the missions that involved the setting to be lions arch had changed. Well, no they haven’t! the mission “Setting the Stage” & all of the other missions that involve LA as the location include the old, damp lion’s arch. It’s like a twilight zone xD
Not sure if this is the right place to post or if it’s important at all, just thought I’d bring it to attention.

personally, i WANT the instances to have the old LA. I’d like the ability to experience the old lion’s arch someplace outside of old youtube videos

It was done on purpose. Chronologically, those events took place in the LA from 2-3 years ago. Same goes with the missions at Fort Concordia (which was destroyed by Mordy).

well kinda obvious they had to do it like that, would have to remake basically half the PS if they wanted to fit it into the new LA (not to mention story wise it wouldnt really make sense as it happens before LA got destroyed and rebuilt)

and no it would not be just a simple copy paste of the terrain and stuff, but every single instance specific NPC would need new spawn points and pathing etc, would be a hell of a lot of work to do

Did they finally fix the Personal Story <-> old/new Lion Arch problem? Nice!
Now it’s really a living world. Time travel, old places, new places, new old places. I like the idea.

Wow, they finally did it! Nice! Time to do the personal story on my twinks – the way I remember it but with new voice over!

Thank you ANet!
