The Calamity was 1.0... does that mean it does not exist because it is now 2.0? I don't understand. This is the lore of the world as of five years ago. Just because every bit of 1.0 lore has not resurfaced immediately into 2.0 does not mean that it ceases to exist?
Much of 1.0 was officially retconned and dusted up under the rug. If it is not mention in 2.0, it's not of importance. If it does get mentioned, then sure, I'll change my mind, but until that point, it's an exercise in futility and expecting the community to know about it, much less actually give any thought or regard to matter, is frankly absurd. We can't play 1.0 anymore and SQX doesn't want us to remember it; there IS a reason 2.0 is so seamless in its presentation and this would be why.
Much of 1.0 was not officially retconned except for those things the developers have stated outright. I don't see why we're to assume that because a tidbit of previous lore hasn't come up in the course of the story (yet) that it's no longer fact. References to events that happened during quests in 1.0 are plentiful, especially for Legacy players, and most post-ARR players will miss them entirely unless they've done a little research or mind-melded with Sounsyy.
