Kos, did they happen to drop any hints about the definition of the word "soon" for the Ring during the preview?

Nice review Kos :)

One question...
Article wrote:...you begin by selecting your beginning map and season...
Does this mean that the season in scenarios doesn't change with the rest of Atys? If that is the case, is it the same with weather?

You can control the seasons. But when you start you choose the begining season.

Hmm... would be a better feeling of continuity with the rest of Atys if the seasons were the same, but I guess we can't have everything :p .

Uhm, so choose the season that it is on the rest of Atys, where´s the problem with that? Oô

And besides I think it´s rather nice to get to choose the season, so a "different part of Atys" is easier to simulate. It´s not summer everywhere on the real globe neither, y´know. ;)

As far as I am concerned, I don't particularly care if there are since we homins don't have access to them. When I go into an R2 scenario I would like it to be a continuation of my life on Atys, and not a case of being whisked off to another time and place to take part in a side adventure with no meaning. :)

Very nice article, Kos. :)

I like that we will get to use the mini-bosses and bosses? of Atys.

New player here, will be subscribing soon. I've read a bit about R2 but I had a few questions:

> What exactly is a 'scenario'? Is it like a mission? Or a dungeon? Or what? :)

> Are the scenarios you create instanced or part of the main world?

> Can anyone make one?

> Allowing players to create their own content in an MMO on one hand sounds exciting and fascinating. On the other hand it sounds like a recipe for total disaster. What controls are in place to make sure the scenarios are balanced and free from offensive content etc.?

Thanks :)
