Istillia Posted August 21, 2025 Report Posted August 21, 2025 In the lore, it shares a little bit about the mansion of Jonas' fathers estate. But it isnt a place we can visit in the game. Maybe it should be even in severe ruins near the location of the archives. Or something. Perhaps that is where Jonas is... wreaked in body and mind like Tobias. The villages the Lord was in charge of nearby with lore about Jonas and his father... Also there is hints to a University city that Jonas goes to and learns from, but we can not find it... would be cool if it similar to the tower were warped by some sort of experiments as well... more lore drop or an extension of other people involved (the researcher who went to school with Jonas. Just ideas. More large ruins or city like ruins would be cool to explore, if even destoyed and swarming with baddies.

Just ideas. There's a very good reason that you cannot visit these places like you can certain story locations. They were destroyed when the cataclysm destroyed the Old World and shaped the new one. If one of these locations were still in existence, it would be a case similar to the Resonance Archive, in that it's positively ancient and no one's been there for ages. 2 hours ago, Istillia said: More large ruins or city like ruins would be cool to explore, if even destoyed and swarming with baddies. Keep in mind that we are only on chapter two, of a planned eight chapters. There's certainly more to come. There are already plenty of ruins of cities, strongholds, and various other things to find and explore in the game, but only story locations are going to be anything elaborate. Part of this could be attributed to the cataclysm destroying most of the Old World, and the resulting temporal storms and monsters wiping out many of the settlements that managed to survive that. But a lot of it is also for performance reasons--the game needs to run smoothly across a variety of hardware, not all of which is high end. In the meantime, you might try out this mods, or search the database for similar: https://mods.vintagestory.at/betterruins 1
