Does anyone know if there is any upcoming BIG patches like ( Goddess of destruction, fafurion or etc. I'm not talking about humunculus and humunculus 2.0  Adding 5 homunculus doesn't count as massive patch..)

As at the moment we are lacking some basic MMORPG stuff.

1) Quests-what mmorpg doesn't have quests (don't need to answer as we are here)

2) Story - This part missing after Goddess of Destruction.

3) Achievements -(let me rephrase: items, achievable in game loot mob drops etc.. High Five patch was awesome with this stuff. bring it back.)  

 

97% NPC doesn't even have a purpose  since they are outdated, do anyone remember Seed Manor Traders in every Town. What's the purpose of them now??

Some of them NPC's give critical error once you try to talk to them..

Plus map is shirked to 14 locations...

90% of the Lineage 2 world is not in use as its still stuck in Scions of Destiny and Kamael (Gracia) patches which were 20 years ago.. (aight might be less but you get the point)

Elven Fortress, Giant Cave(inner cave), Devil Isle, Beast Farm, Wasteland, Forgotten Temple, Garden of Eva, Wall of Argos, Valley of the Saints, Pavel Ruins, Gracia Continent..

List can go on and on and on..  You get my point.

 

The cadence of our content updates has been drastically increased from every 9 months to every 4 months, which is why we no longer have the so-called "big patches" anymore. We are now releasing 3 minor/moderate content updates per year instead of 1 massive update per year. The process changed right after the Fafurion content update in May 2019, which was about 9 months from the last update (Salvation: Etina's Fate).

We can push out more content updates per year with the change in update cadence, which also gives us less compatibility issues like being able to run proper Anniversary events around our anniversary date. The process in moving to more frequent content updates was applied to all overseas regions, so it was not something we could change.

1. Quests - The system for most non-starter/beginner quests was changed after the switch to the automed hunting system. I understand there is lack of quests and I do not have an answer at this time when we will see more quest lines (e.g. Seven Signs) added.

2. Story - Lore used to be included on the KR powerwiki and on some of the content updates pages, but we have not seen anything lately since the powerwiki was removed. I will check with the writer who works on the L2 lore to see if we can get some updates to it since we recently received lore on Death Knight and Sylph for Aden.

3. Achievements/Loot - The drops changed with our F2P transition in 2011 and again when automated hunting was introduced. We may see some future improvements to the types of items being dropped, but we will have to see once the Dev team shares more details.

4. Old NPCs/Hunting Zones - We already raised this issue up to our Dev team regarding outdated monsters still remaining in the world and requests for revamping the content. It is mainly up to the local development team to implement these hunting zone changes/revamps.
