I should clarify, I guess. I played ED before FoV ever came out. In fact, they were working on FoV. I then bought the DKS, and made a new character. I was just surprised at who was chosen for the 'pre-set', as I thought the ones I chose were definitely better! I mean, really, Kenneth for a trainer? The captain kicks his butt when you let them duel it out!
Anyway, it's not anything the support folk need to know. It wasn't a true "loss" of information, as it was my 'old' ED choices. I would think that the pre-set trainer would be the who always wins a duel, for instance.
I am currently working on a DKS ED character so I can transition to DKS VoV w/ my new character. I've read enough on these forums that I am well aware some major changes were made to the original game. Though I spent more hours than I can count playing old ED, I see it as my duty to invest many more hours playing a revamped ED, since the devs took time to revamp it-- not just that, but that they used our suggestions in remastering it and in the expansion! That's just awesome in my book. Therefore, I must follow my duty! Even if it takes me many hours, 'slaving' away over the mouse and keyboard and checking every nook and cranny of the world.

All best,
