Also...the starter town will appeal, hopefully, to rp players and classic alike. I can see how classic players make not like it, but behold, the original town will still be there, and the "idea" of using those classic tiles will not be forgotten. The overworld will include ideas that attract both rp and classic players, as we must compete for both.
Expect greatness.
