Shouldn't it be more of a They Changed It, Now It Sucks?
It also wasn't all that good - it could happen to low-gear chars too.
The way I see it, you couldn't even do it without access to a demon altar, implying that they have at least beaten one boss, as the player would need either nightmare+ pickaxe or purification powder to get to one. Apart from that, it isn't that hard to figure out what is happening and how to stop it, as the only way to repeatedly trigger it was to pull out a summon item, kill the boss, and then pull it out again. I suppose it is really a matter of opinion though.
On another note, Chasms. Yeah, there were fewer in the world I just genned. And yeah, it had two shadow orbs. That's right,
it. As in, one chasm, for the entire map, with two shadow orbs. Both of which I've broken, meaning no chance of meteorites, and no chance of EoW without a wormfood. Please tell me this isn't the norm... (Details: Yes, Small World, and I realize that larger worlds mean more orbs and chasms, but that shouldn't equate to one chasm and 2 orbs.)
Against my better judgement, I went back to the floating island. I didn't really have a choice, as I had left a large (early on) amount of money up there. I managed to barricade myself inside the building (and looted the chest for a lucky horseshoe) and now I have to figure out how to escape from six harpies and disassemble the building (gold brick, silver walls).
EDIT: And then I died again...
Dig out all but the outer layer of bricks, dig out a bit of dirt. Place the dirt around the final layer of brick, then dig out the brick. Equip the horseshoe and do a gravedigger tunnel (2- wide, straight down). The horseshoe will let you land fine, then just take off running.
