Back to work, ho-hum

Hidey-hody-heedy...hum?

Work's resumed on Gens 2 after a looooooooong break and I'm feeling terribly motivated to finish this fucker, so I'm trying to use this while it lasts.

BASICALLY over the last few days, I've been going over and redoing stuff that sucked. I completely remapped Tsubaki Village on Paraman (interiors AND the exterior; the mountain path to Elder Kiryai's... crib is still the same though, 'cause it's fine) and gave it some background instead of it being a shitty HEY HAVE A RANDOM SAMURAI VILLAGE, 'CAUSE SAMURAIS ARE COOL... which was pretty much my original line of thinking when making the damn place. Now it has a lot more background to it, Zandar's cooler, and holy fuck it looks a lot nicer. That's the main revision.

I also started planning how each character gets their Rahfest, which is cool, and K0LE gave me the thumbs-up, so even better.

REMAPPED AREAS INCLUDE:
-Tsubaki Village
-Hoddal Range (not in the last demo)

NEW AREAS INCLUDE:
-Magical Garden
-Sky Palace

Both these places are on Paraman and are optional dungeons. I intend on adding optional dungeons to the other planets when I get around to finishing the storyline for them (well, Ragdum's done, so I've only got Jarun, Narryl and Rendar to go (Kzar doesn't count)).

Also I've finally settled on an intro. Hurrah!

Onward to work on it again!
