Drakomagi.1654 Posted September 24, 2018 Share Posted September 24, 2018 With the latest patch, the story journal order got reversed. This was a change that makes it a little harder to find what you are after. Suggestion: Put the story back in chronological order, except also give it tabs based on what part of the story it is. Similar to how it's structured in the story journal on that particular tab in the main hero panel. For instance, you click "Story Journal" in the achievements tab and it will list LWS2, HoT, LWS3, PoF, LWS4. Then you click one of those, and you get the episode or acts in order to get to the achievements you want. Thoughts? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zoltar MacRoth.7146 Posted September 24, 2018 Share Posted September 24, 2018 I personally like it this way. It's easier to find more recent things. Rather than reversing it, can I suggest adding an option which would allow players to choose their preferred order? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Inculpatus cedo.9234 Posted September 25, 2018 Share Posted September 25, 2018 Why does reverse order make it harder to find Episodes? All it does it cause less scrolling for recent content. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Drecien.4508 Posted September 25, 2018 Share Posted September 25, 2018 I like it. New stuff near the top, like great ideas. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HazyDaisy.4107 Posted September 25, 2018 Share Posted September 25, 2018 You have to figure most players had already done as much as they could if not all of the achievements in previous stories, so scrolling and expanding to het to the latest stuff was really annoying. There's still that part of the population that hadn't done everything previous that will now get to enjoy scrolling and expanding, but, overall, I think this order works for more players, still a user set option beyond the watch list would be a great improvement.

Boysenberry.1869 Posted September 25, 2018 Share Posted September 25, 2018 As they keep adding more seasons, dividing them into tabs will probably happen. In the meantime, I love the reverse order. I wish they had done it sooner. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This was a change that makes it a little harder to find what you are after. Why is it harder? Now you can see the most current episode achievements faster without scrolling, in the previous method you had to scroll down a lot in order to reach the latest episode. It's much easier to find what you are after now than it ever was. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Drakomagi.1654 Posted October 3, 2018 Author Share Posted October 3, 2018 It's dependent on which episode you're after. Not necessarily the last one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WhatLiesBeneath.9018 Posted October 4, 2018 Share Posted October 4, 2018 Its exactly the same it was before, just in a more logical order. The newest stuff should always be the first showing. ”hard to find” is hilarious. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Leablo.2651 Posted October 4, 2018 Share Posted October 4, 2018 While the reverse sort probably saves a bit of work for most people, myself included, I still find top-posting to be gross. As OP suggested, there are few issues that cannot be solved with better culling. Having smart, contextual defaults would also help. As in, the Story Journal category should automatically open to a section based on some criteria: * The map you're on * The story that is currently active in your journal * The latest release Obviating the need for reverse-sorting as a convenience.
