Felt like making this so I guess people can get an idea (or reminiscence) of the past/current game loop per Region and how little to no difference in change occurs as the game progresses in future updates. It's also something I would like to look back to from time to time. I suppose some of this "could" fall under opinion but it's basically the reality of the game. This is a general overview, if you want exact timings of when some of this stuff came out then head to Bumped and read up. If I'm missing something, please let me know.
