Umm...

Being the one who made the generation template, I really don't see the need for it anymore since if I understand correctly, no generations except G10-12 (not G9) (Shamala and Nightmare are sidequests, not mainstream) do not need to be done in order anymore?

I mean like, we could always make a separate template for Saga episodes, though.

Well, yeah, you could clusterf*ck the continuity if you wanted to, but the existence of a continuity implies there is a story order, kinda like why there's a table of contents in an audiobook, even though you could very well listen to it on shuffle.

If that's the case, most stories don't even have a storyline order. For example:

• G1 - Rescue Morry
• G2 - Stop Esras
• G3 - Find out G2 was about preventing macha and prevent macha again
• G7-8 - Conduct the Gold Dragon
• G9-12 - Stop the gods
• G13 - Chase after/learn about Shakespear
• G14 - NO real story besides Romeo and Juliet, you encounter shakespear like twice with no backstory
• G15 - Help shakespear and two lovebirds
• G16 - Stop lugh and Morry
• G18 - Stop Ruairi and Tarlach

Point being, different storylines reference eachother slightly, but aren't related or connected persay. (Also, why the heck is the storyline STILL not on generation pages? O .o)

Except that Ruairi is older in Saga than he is in C1-C3, and Triona was alive in g2 but dead in G16. That has got to imply something about which generation happened first, right? Hint hint

In G1, Ruairi was a a wannabe paladin and Mari was still Mari, In G3, he was hanging out with Morgamt and Mari was Nao. The stories don't just reverence eachother slightly, they relate to eachother a lot and where they fit in the timeline is usually very clear.

By the time before G1 started, he had already quit and left to become an adventurer.

Also Tarlach's and Ruairi's reunion before Saga clearly happens after G16, since they mention about Triona and Lugh being dead.

Wasn't there an update that forces us to do every single generation in order?

They like, undid it, I think.
