That's the problem, they totally discarded Masterias assets, which are its story, the party quest and most of its music. On the contrary, they made it into another area irrelevant to the flow of the game's main story. Even with the detail of it being DS' hometown, it i just something he mentions and thats it. They definitely could have done so much more.

It is not like they are saving the spirit of Masteria, they are just taking Crimsonwood Keep out of context and slapping some thin story on it, just like they have with every piece of "borrowed" exclusive area so far.
Now this is something I don't really agree with, and I was there back when Masteria was released. You're basically saying nothing is better to a bad version of it. Now if that helped the chances that we could still get something good for masteria in the future I would agree, but as things stand now NexAm would screw masteria even more if they tried to update it. My point is, there is definitely no joy, but no harm with this update, much less if you consider NexAm has kept the old one untouched aswell so there's nothing stopping NexAm of doing something with it if they really wanted to.
