The original game is over five years old. The developers have released many updates since then, and the latest one, a patch to reduce the chances of meeting Old Tegrin, is just a few days old. They have not yet released an official statement on the subject, so for now, we will discuss the issue on our forums. It is important to note that this mod is intended to reduce the chances of meeting Old Tegrin, not to make it impossible to meet him. The chances of meeting him will still be greater than those in the original game. It is possible that the developers will release a statement shortly, clarifying their intentions.
