Helium, Black Tower Graphic Bug?. "I've entered black tower, but it's all black, I can't see the map, is this a graphic bug? I tried restarting requiem and nothing, I always knew from Requiem Wiki and Nova Lux NPCs that Black Tower was made by discarded skeletons but I don't see any skeleton in here. Also I think it's graphical bug because sometime the terrain isn't plain, so there is a different ground, but it shows only black. Can it get fixed?"

I wish it was a bug. Sadly, that's the dungeon.

 

From what Helium said, the actual Black Tower is the 4x4 meter hole in the rock, aka the part you enter before entering the actual dungeon. But that, as you said, doesn't make sense. A 4x4 meters hole in the rock can't be a tower, it's not made by skeletons and it's definitely not a reminder of a threath to the Xenon Order as requiem history tells.

 

So, upon walking a bit around the black tower with the key, you can enter the Portal Plane. So yeah, till now, it doesn't make sense, I know, but don't worry, it will still don't make sense.

So basically this Portal Plane is a void  is a copy paste version of Ancient Ruins, that poor map getting copy pasted again, but this time it's pitched all black. That cause a lot of problems, the map is way too big, and the terrain isn't flat, so basically...not a void. Sadly not even the void idea, as it doesn't make any sense, was properly added.

 

There was a lot of hope for this dungeon to be a great dungeon, but that's the result. It has lots of problems and so far it only has been a BOT paradise.

As some player may say, "this dungeon is an insult for the game", sadly, can't agree more with them.

 

Summarizing all, yes, the dungeon has a lot of problems and bugs, but that you see everything black, that's not a bug from Helium's view.

I never understood how they could never create a new level. Takes 1 person a week to do all the modeling and texture work, especially for a game with graphics this dated. When you recycle a map, you are still placing that cloned map data back into the game files that needs to be referenced. The only thing saved is the few hundred MB of new assets. If the game breaks from that, than all hope is lost on this title.
