Well, I counted arcs and badge missions. I suppose I could pull up the wiki and look up how many missions each arc has, but that sounds like more work than I am willing to do. 😁 Any idea when that HeroCon was? Because a lot of content gets added every year. I know it's not precise, but it's a nice marker.

Praetorian story arcs are in Ouro. Good one!

So I was lying in bed last night and started trying to quantify how much "content" was in the game. So I thought about going to Ouroboros for both sides and add the total together, less the co-op stuff so they aren't double counted. Then add all the TFs and trials and the Signature Story Arcs. But then I remembered we also have repeatable contacts in some zones. And some characters have additional missions that aren't part of an arc or badge so they aren't in Ouro (Maria Jenkins, for example). Then we also have the Star Challenge stuff that takes existing content but adds new NPCs and effects and tricks that makes them significantly different than their base level. And that doesn't even touch upon base-building, costume creating, build-making, role-playing and all the other player-made content in AE. So . . . I'm about to go into the game and grab some of those numbers. If you think I'm missing something, please let me know and I'll add it. 265 Hero side Story Arcs + TFs + Trials 188 Villain Arcs + TFs +Trials (excluding those already counted as identical co-op) 68,380 AE missions!! 2 Hamidon Raids 1 Mothership Raid 1 Seed of Hamidon Raid 24 other Zone events (including giant monsters and invasions) 19 repeatable contacts with a varying amount of missions each 5 "unlock" Tip missions 144 Alignment missions 16 Morality Missions 38 zones with exploration tips 15 Special Event contacts 2 Skiing ramps 22 PvP Zone missions/events 3 Advanced difficulty TFs 56 Police Radios and Banks 141 Newspaper missions and Banks 9 Warshade Arcs 9 Peacebringer Arcs 5 Soldier of Arachnos Arcs (Note: Devs hate villains) 4 Rogue Arcs 4 Vigilante Arcs

18 hours and almost there! 97.2%!!

Also, make sure you log all the way out of the game and then restart from the launcher. I have forgotten to do that several times. The new maps don't load unless you do a full restart.

Welcome back. PS. Carp Melee is REAL!

BUGS!

Dang it, Arcanum!

No patch to any game or software, whether volunteer or for profit, is 100% perfect. Some of the biggest companies on the planet push out patches that need to be patched.

While I cannot deny that we have both negative Nancys and White Knights, I also cannot deny that some things get changed, reverted, and modified during every beta testing period.

So you at least tried it. 😁

Have you ever tried a Caesar salad? You should!

Does it taste soapy to you? https://www.britannica.com/story/why-does-cilantro-taste-like-soap-to-some-people My point remains that just reading something is not the same as experiencing it. You disagree. *Shrug*

While that makes common sense, it's not always true. One can look at the ingredients for a Caesar salad and refuse to eat it because it has anchovies and they once tried anchovies on a pizza and hated it. But then they actually try the salad and taste that the anchovies are used in a different way that adds flavor without overwhelming salty fishiness. That's just one example. I could come up with many more.
