I keep forgetting just how new I am to the game. I see your point. And yes, I'd have to say that for older players the rep should be credited. That said any player who came after the quests, no.
I suppose in a way it's like pirate generations. I play with a lot of the old generation pirates. Players who know the game for what it once was, and for what it has become now. I stand in total awe of the older generation. I see what you have done, what you are, as something to aspire to. I have a 32 pirate now. Yet every day I am more amazed by those of you with the right to call yourselves Pirate Masters. I listen to the old generation, I try to learn from it. So many of you know more than I will ever forget about this game. And yet as part of the younger generation of pirates I see the game for what it is now. The only way I know of the game before is from bits and pieces gathered from the older players.
I hear the common lament that everything is for the new players. I don't know one way or another on that. I just know what I see. What I see is a game with a solid base to build on. I see subtle shifts just since I've started. Things moving, changing. I see this as the start, however small, of something massive off the horizon. Why get detailed about quest items, why move enemies, why raise enemy levels if something big wasn't coming? They're gearing up, and in my experience with D, when they get started massive changes tend to follow. The caves, I see this as the start of things to come. With the fourth movie (as far as I know) set in stone, they will want this game bigger and better for that release. They won't wait till the last minute. A change is coming. I've seen it before with D. It begins with subtlety...
