Yeah, I remember being disappointed to see that we were dealing with the Pfhor again when Infinity came out. And still on Lh'owon, no less.

Didn't something come out a while ago that explained that the reason for the "what if" scenario was that initially Double Aught was working under the assumption that they wouldn't have the budget for any new graphics, and by the time they did have new wall textures, the story had already been locked in?
