Zaithan 2.0
And one last but very important thing ………………..
Who the heck had the idea with clicking through chat boxes to have conversations ?
I mean the personal story screens with 2 people talk to each other weren’t really great
but simply clicking through a text box ? Really ?
Probably has to do with the availability of voice actors. Notice how when Rytlok and Rox have a conversation between just the two of them, the conversation is voiced. But when the player becomes involved in the conversation, it switches to the chat box. I’m guessing they can’t get ahold of some of the voice actors who voiced the PCs to record the dialogue. As far as I know, there hasn’t been any new ‘voiced content’ for the PCs since the initial release.

Actually, there are numerous differences, starting with your very first point:
~this dragon does not currupt every living thing, only things in nature, or more specifically, only thinks that grow with vines, roots, branches and stems… that being said it can corrupt a slyvair hound but not its counterpart, the flesh and blood wolf. With beings of flesh and blood itdoes not corrupt, only kill, and quite possibly devour the energy/nutrients of… this make mordremoth greatly different from any other dragon.
~this dragon is attacking wps… which, while prehaps the other dragons are capable, none have bothered to try thus far. This is actually a far greater threat then it seems, as it cuts off not only travel and commerse between the cities; but supplies, reinforcements, and communications. basically, if the dragon has control over the waypoint network, all cities are cut off, and will be forced to fend off the dragons forces alone. the three orders and the pact will be greatly disadvantaged, as they will lose speed and manoverability, greatly starving their effeciency and making it so that situations where they could otherwise quickly deploy and save the day, will instead arive too late. this is indeed why modromoth is the greatest threat thus far/currently. so rather than attacking the people like the other dragons, he is attacking our network, the system by which we have means to repell him.
“-Dragon corrupts living beings and environment.”
Right, because only Zhaitan and Mordremoth do this.
Wait, hold on. The Icebrood and the Branded just called. They said “it’s a Dragon thing, except Primordus has to be all high and mighty and make his minions from scratch”.
Aside from Primordus (and maybe the DSD), dragon minions ARE corrupted living beings. (At least Mordie here is very selective about his. He’s clearly a vegetarian.)

Really ?????
The issue here is that A-Net is really uncreative when making all Dragons the same.
Now we pick apart what kind of life forms are actually corrupted by the Dragons to make them different ???
I couldn’t care less one dragon is raising dead people, the other one just plants or the other one turns people into crystal zombies……….. really
They are all the same so far and that is the issue.
Of course having the same story like Zaithan is not helping either.
The faction leader are well aware of the thread but have better things to do than joining a conference on what to do ?? Really …..
Exactly like Zaithan
Well, there’s always the encroaching threat by other dragons at the same time…
No one want’s a two-way war, if the risks of one happening are quite high.
Hopefully the battle with Mordremoth or what ever is the next Dragon to defeat, I hope we get the final battle on dragon’s lair, which was planned for Zhaitan, but got cut…
I rarely do PvP or Hard PvE, unless it’s organized.

Not quite true. They’re all aware of Mordremoth now, but have their own problems to deal with. The whole norn part of episode 3 dealt with this, where it’s pointed out that they don’t see Mordremoth as a big threat when they’ve currently got Jormag on their doorstep and are constantly dealing with the sons of svanir at the same time.
Even the pale tree was seemingly unaware of just how far Mordremoth’s reach has extended to. The summit is precisely to bring the problem to the attention of everyone.
There’s obviously going to be similarities between the elder dragons, as they all share certain traits (such as corrupting creatures) but bringing all the races together isn’t necessarily the same as bringing together three organisations to join together, we’ll just have to wait and see where the story goes.

By nature dragons currupt… that’s the premises of the story… I don’t know how you expect them to change that. What defines each dragon is the nature of their curruption, what they currupt: zhiatan currupts dead bodies, and the crystal dragon currupts living, the fire dragon doesn’t currupt at all, its had its army of destroyer minions from the begining, and mordremoth only currupts plants; and how they currupt: sons of savanior are drawn by greed and promises of power, men and women consumed by fear are chased down and slaughtered, until they rise up to be fears host. That being said each dragon uses a different element of magic, corrupts in a different manor, and targets a select group.
As for the storyline being the same… it is not. For we did not gather the worlds leaders to fight zhiantan, we mustered Tryia’s three orders, the vigil, priory, and whispers, which is only 3 of the world’s armies out of a possible 10 (5 nations armies, 3 orders, tengu, and ebon vanguard), but never the worlds leaders. Yes at the begining of personal story we did conflict with our own nations personal issues, but they remained unresolved, the humans never defeated the centuer or the white mantal disguised as bandaits, and minister claudicus still reigns power even if he is currently the queens house guest; the flame legion still is a thorn in the charrs backside, and the crystal dragon currupts ever still. just because we move on to biger things, do not mean these issues dissapear, and I am quite glad to have a chance to come back and conclude them if we may.

Just some questions from me…..
Why don’t we join Rytlok on an epic journey to find the missing pieces in ancient ruins ??
-Why are the mighty Charr not able to get a sample from a little vine ?
-Why would someone care what emotions going on between Eir and her son
when a Dragon destroys the whole planet.
-Why the heck did we go back to “go to place A and bring me object B before i open this door for you”…. this is 80’s point and click adventures.
-Why don’t we get something unique and always get the lukewarm reuse of something already 100 times used….
1 Answer for all Questions.
They have only a small period of time to create the content because of the 2 week releases, everything you mention will take too long to design.
