Hey, thanks for your reply, I appreciate it. Don't worry, I absolutely do not mind walls of text. Especially considering that yours is actually addressing my point.
I understand that making the game is a lot of work, and that you can't do all at once. I'm not asking you to do more, either. It's just the complete neglect of those early parts in favor of advancing a story that is already far ahead that I find unsettling. I see the main story is picking up tension, and it's probably not easy to take time away from that, but I do think it would benefit both main story and world content if they proceed side by side.
Now, if you say they will get content, that is great news. At least I can put aside worries about them remaining in limbo until the main story is complete. Thanks.

About MasterWizard, criticizing his behavior isn't hostility. I think he actually does need someone to give him a good talking to, so he learns to listen and respond rather than rant past the point and blame others for his own miscomprehensions, or just focus on actually being helpful rather than being a detractor. I have seen him be helpful on a few occasions in the past, but it's been quite the opposite recently. His way of talking past and over people is as hostile and (passive-)aggressive as it gets.
