oh my god I was searching for some 1.0 information just now because I wanted to know something specific (how they handled mail), and found SUCH cursed knowledge. THE GOLD SAUCER GATHERING GAMES WERE LITERALLY HOW YOU USED TO GATHER??

I still don't know how 1.0 did mail but now I'm sort of afraid to find out
Juroku Cha
IT TRU
Juroku Cha
1.0 put so much emphasis on graphical accuracy and not nearly enough on gameplay
Juroku Cha
so it's always hilarious when i see people like "1.0 looks so much better" yeah that's because they spent 10+ hours rendering a rock rather than on the content, you still want that?

i would love to have the 1000000 polygon flower pots back
skerple
yes. please let me melt my computer because I looked at flowers

1.0 would have given us the vastly inferior 10k polygon not-square grapes
moontouched
that alone is enough to condemn it

skerple
the squapes are so good
skerple
make it possible for me to run the game at all, PLUS a funny meme
skerple
but yeah everything I learn about 1.0 is like. why in fuck did you make those design choices.
skerple
did... did you not HAVE a UX team?
skerple
was there not anyone, at all, whose job it was to say no to bad ideas?
Juroku Cha
timestamped for this classic interview question and yoshi-p's reaction

Nancy Crawfish
ahaha the gold saucer games being how you used to gather is one of the horror stories I have been told
Nancy Crawfish
along with the cursed knowledge of the Shroud 1.0
Juroku Cha
oh yeah!
Juroku Cha
you know how awful thousand maws of to-to-rak's map is?
Juroku Cha
1.0 inherited
Juroku Cha
now imagine that map being how every region's map looked
thetaClysm
i... would not assume that 1.0 handled mail at all
thetaClysm
i not specifically aware of mail having been a feature at the time
thetaClysm
*i am not

i like to consider myself somewhat well-researched on the subject of 1.0 (in the "i actually sat down and binged the entire Remnants Of A Realm youtube series" sense), so i could perhaps be a font of cursed knowledge if so moved
thetaClysm
did you know you used to have to physically deploy your retainer in an actual physical market zone within one of the three city-states, which potential customers would have to browse manually because there was no search feature
thetaClysm
the market wards were divided into sub-wards by the type of products that were sold there, and you could only deploy a retainer to one place to sell one type of goods at a time
thetaClysm
and you had to memorize what was sold where because they were not named in such a way that made that clear

i'm
corpse bride
the shroud map
corpse bride
it's like LoZ Lost Woods on crack
thetaClysm
it's worse than it looks because the map does not properly show verticality and many areas have multiple levels
thetaClysm
that's one thing i have a specific memory of when i very briefly played
corpse bride
this is nOT A PLATFORMER, GUYS

No jumping in 1.0, nuff said
Leif
Actually i remember what made me quit 1.0 was the fact that you had to click a button to draw a weapon, and another to target and then again to say yes i want to attack target, then another for actual attacks. None of that was automated by just clicking your attack skill with a target selected
Leif
I didn't get far in 1.0
Leif
Because i straight up quit after fighting like 3 enemies
Leif
It was very bad
Nancy Crawfish
oh dear god. It's like they saw the problem in everquest where you could accidentally hit a button and attack and merchant and get murdered, and they solved it in the worst way imaginable
Leif
It was not a fun immersive experience
skerple
I did know that cursed knowledge about selling on retainers
Un(t)sundered
I know someone who was playing in 1.0! do you want me to ask about how it handled mail?
skerple
Oh, that'd be lovely if you would, please!
