Why replace/update Bleasdale?

[🅴🆅🅸🅻]

Bleasdale in my option is one of your best maps, why would you update it. the new one looks completely different you could just use it as a NEW map. Stop replacing the maps and add new ones or at least keep the option to play the old ones.

Literally ruining the game map by map.

DON'T TOUCH BLEASDALE. Just make a new map.

First of all, they're rebuilding the game by getting rid of bought assets and introducing their own. They're also trying to make it look like there actually lives someone

And while they're at it, they're also reevaluating which parts of a map work well and which are problematic and in that regard bleasdale is definitely one of the worst small maps, especially due to the attic, the upper hallway and the strange kitchen/dinning room setup.

And in my opinion it's the 2nd worst small map after Point Hope and i'm really looking forward to an update that tackles all the problems with it.

Because most maps are store bought, and they want to replace them.

What? Bleasdale is actually good. Look at point hope, it's only cool the first day people play it. On harder difficulties you can't even test for the ghosts in Point Hope, they literally choose to never chase you.

Brownstone High School is also another bad map nobody likes playing also.

I can see the point of updating the maps to use their own assets - as well as addressing problems and making more items interactable; that worked well on Point Hope (it's just a shame the layout of Point Hope is so linear - I don't play it).

Surely the developers can introduce the updated map while still making the old map available to play....? That isn't complicated to do -and I think this is a great suggestion. Simply leave the old level available and provide the new one alongside it, even if just for a limited time while any teething troubles are sorted out. The game is still "early access" and so it's not unreasonable to have a 'Bleasdale' and 'Bleasdate(Old Map)' option on the cork-board.

I like the current Bleasdale so I'll be sad to see the old version go unless the new one is really good.

I quite like the High School except that there are all those books and things strewn about that can't be interacted with. I've had times where I've needed to find items for the ghost to interact with and struggled to find "real" objects to pile into the ghost room - very frustrating. I'd love to see Brownstone updated eventually (but not at the expense of new maps).
