I’m sure many are aware of the Bree-land revamp that came along with Book 8. I’ve not had a chance to play yet, but this is something that really caught my interest. I never thought Bree-land was bad, but it sounds like these adjustments make it a lot more fun.
Doyce has a great post about this on his site that I encourage everyone to read. He hits upon all of the areas and quests that have frustrated people over the past couple of years. Interestingly, they also made another pass at the Old Forest, which was surprising to me as well:
They revised the Old Forest (which I didn’t think they’d bother messing with, as it’s already seen one revision) and somehow – magically – found the perfect sweet spot between the original Old Forest (horrible death trap, but cool) and the more recent version (sadly, laughably harmless).
Whenever I finally get to go in game again, I’ll be interested in seeing how all of this played out for myself.

Now that’s almost worth rolling an alt to check out..
