The Game needs legacy versions just like Minecraft does

[ProsAreLow]

Since the game changes so much so often, commonly changing whole fields of the game or making mods obsolete i think being able to choose for legacy versions in the launcher would for private or single player sessions would make many happy as criticism of all the changes is far from uncommon. I rather prefer the older playstyles and many would love to have som nostalgia

There are legacy versions available, but they have to be run separately and cannot be implemented within the launcher. They still require a Steam connection.
As a diversion for me, I run the last version just before the Age of Sorcery was released.
Mind you, the "legacy" versions still have their bugs that were never fixed. Also, there are some drawbacks concerning vault exploration on the Isle of Siptah. (namely, the end bosses are not showing up which means most (if not all) exit routes are still closed off and you'll have to backtrack, if possible).
One more thing, unless you know how to set up a server to run a legacy version you'll be stuck playing it in solo mode with coop as an option.

If you wish to explore this further, go to the official forums and look up instructions regarding how to do it. If nothing else, ask and I'm sure someone can point you to the right topic.

I have a link to a Steam Guide which explains the process.

As far as a Funcom-supported way of doing so, I doubt we'll see that come about for various reasons, so the above method is likely how it'll have to be.

There also won't be much in the way of mods to choose from unless you happen to have old manual copies. Luckily for me I saved all mine.

ah thank you, seems to help, yet tbh having it offical would also be nice, even tough i doubt that funcom ever does it. But i dont understand how you can change your game so often yet never make the legacy versions easy accses. Back then the game was a survival game with rpg and souslike features, now its a soulslike rpg with survival features.

This 100 times this! I miss the survival aspects of the older version.
