Izzy.2951 Posted November 10, 2022 Share Posted November 10, 2022 (edited) Hey, As title says it would be amazing if we could get festival decorations and activities in old LA. I guess most of it was done back in the day already. I would rather do Wintersday in old LA than in Divinitys Reach, good old times! PD: Also the guild bank npc is missing. PD2: And add the new activities that have been added through the years. Edited November 10, 2022 by Izzy.2951 11 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CrashTestAuto.9108 Posted November 10, 2022 Share Posted November 10, 2022 I'd like to +1 this, but with a little more emphasis on how AWESOME old LA is. This isn't a request of "You've given us a thing, now we want MORE", but rather "The thing you gave us is amazing, there is a ton of positivity in that map, please invest in it a little bit now and then if possible🙂 ". My request would be chairs - which is weird, but now the well rested buff applies elsewhere, and idling in old LA is a thing, this would be a nice addition. And yeah, if the activities are too much, it would be at least nice to have the old seasonal decorations back if that's easy. 5 2 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Randulf.7614 Posted November 10, 2022 Share Posted November 10, 2022 (edited) Remember it’s specifically meant to be old LA. Guild halls came in after new LA was built so I don’t think there can be a guild npc second edit - apparently there were guild npcs prior to guild halls, so my above comment is irrelevant Edited November 10, 2022 by Randulf.7614 Mistakenly wrote guilds instead of guild halls 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Heres a wooden potatoes video of that time to prove it: And what do you mean with guilds came after the rebuilt of old LA? o.O (guilds were here since the start of the game) Edited November 10, 2022 by Izzy.2951 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ashantara.8731 Posted November 10, 2022 Share Posted November 10, 2022 While I like the idea, I think it might be a bit much to ask for. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well i remember playing in old LA in 2012-2014 with all cover in snow with wintersday decorations etc etc (same for halloween etc). So maybe its already done, maybe they just need to get it back live and tweak it a bit with like the Freezie strike mission npc etc. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I meant guild halls. I hadn’t remembered there being any guild npcs prior to them being added (it’s been 6-7 years and I’m hazy on old LA npcs), but I’m obviously in error there. edited my earlier post accordingly Edited November 10, 2022 by Randulf.7614 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I like old LA also much more. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dualumina.1760 Posted November 23, 2022 Share Posted November 23, 2022 100% on board for seeing old LA in its "holiday skins" (especially the Forge) but don't think it's worth the effort to update it to be entirely up to date. Like at most put a teleporter to the main event and change the environment. Not everyone has access to Old LA compared to the cities so it's really not worth putting all this effort into a (technically) level-gated zone to my understanding. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chainheart.7263 Posted November 27, 2022 Share Posted November 27, 2022 If a dev is reading this by any chance; thank you so much for old lion's arch! ironically it's finnaly not only a memory. Halloween and Wintersday especially were absolutely amazing in old lion's arch, the feeling of everyone being there and the snowglobe forge and all the decorations really made it special, i think these two festivals should be held in old lion's arch, and with the festival invitation gizmos there wouldn't be a gate to where the festival is, it would however put the main-hub feeling back in during those two festivals. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zebulous.2934 Posted December 15, 2022 Share Posted December 15, 2022 I don't really care about making it functional for festivals. I would just like them to dig up the festival versions of Old Lion's Arch so I can walk around all of the decorations again. Oh and the ambient sounds and music 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Konig Des Todes.2086 Posted December 15, 2022 Share Posted December 15, 2022 (edited) I'm so sad they didn't do this. Maybe it'll be done by Dragon Bash... One can hope. They have those decorations up and active already for the story, after all. Edited December 15, 2022 by Konig Des Todes.2086 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TGMChrist.2678 Posted December 16, 2022 Share Posted December 16, 2022 I also wish for festival decorations in Old Lion's Arch. Maybe next year. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Drok Kindleshot.1496 Posted December 18, 2022 Share Posted December 18, 2022 agree would of been nice if they would of done an ice rink in that huge pavillion between the bank and Tp and made a mini game out of it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To be clear, people aren't asking for new decorations, but rather the original 2012/2013 decorations to return for Wintersday, Halloween, and Dragon Bash as all three already exist (or at least did in the Halloween/Wintersday cases). 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kelly.7019 Posted January 12, 2023 Share Posted January 12, 2023 it would just woulda been nice to be able to use mounts here. but u cant for obviou reasons. as they arent lifting a finger to fix anything major to old LA. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kelly.7019 Posted January 12, 2023 Share Posted January 12, 2023 (edited) i always thought Old LA would have been better as a guild hall. then mounts- more vendors - exploration could have been more fun. but they still could do it!
