The last two days my friend and I have been trying to finish off our Lilith altars to be ready for season 1 and I think everyone is doing the same. Every time I roll up to an altar at least one person but usually two or three people come charging in on their horse. It's fun to be here at the start of this game's journey and seeing everybody getting ready! I think I'm gonna try Druid when the season starts ๐ป
They were originally going to have everything be a clean slate, as I would typically expect for a seasonal start. Reportedly, they changed due to "overwhelming community feedback" so that's why we have this awkward "keep the map visibility and altars" solution.
I'd rather stab out my eyeballs with a fork than having to do altars again tbh. One of the most tedious things I ever had the displeasure to do in gaming.
You haven't done much gaming then.
With a map and a pre-planned route, you can bang them out in an hour or two while watching Netflix. But yeah, it's just a little extra tedium.
