I'd like to start a discussion on whether we should be posting secrets onto the wiki or not. I know most game wiki sites contain this kind of information but seeing as how this wiki is run by NEStalgia's admins, I'm not sure it is appropriate here. Any thoughts?


NomadNate: I feel when the game first came out, and there were still things yet to be discovered (not implying everything has been discovered), then it was reasonable to not have a secrets page in the wiki. Now that all the treasure has been discovered, it seems very reasonable to have the locations in the wiki. There is an unofficial website that people use for the secrets anyway, so why not have them all in the wiki where people can add to them and tweak if needed? The only way we can find a passage if we want to is to either already know about it, or to try to figure out where the passage is based on a small screenshot.

NomadNate: If someone wants to discover things by using a maps, it makes a lot of sense to have them available, for that is simply how they personally enjoy the game. The maps containing hints will be separate from the maps without (for now). As for secret shops and such, having them here isn't that much different from someone asking in world chat.

NomadeNate: In the coming weeks this page will have fully updated maps (new color pallet, contents of chests, etc), town paths, and the rest of the puzzle solutions. I am working several hours a day to get everything pixel perfect and uploaded.
