Serpent in the Staglands (tuxdb.com)

Patch 6 primary updates include:

Lumen Cavern location with island camera boundaries fixed along with save issue for character there (will retroactively fix your game if he was missing).
An issue with traps that could arise while detecting and disarming fixed
An issue with Foul Creep that could arise that made it difficult to target has been fixed, will target and hit as normal
Oil traps now sell for appropriate amount
Ending can account for having a full party of avatars properly now
Conversation with Ista Cale constable fixed with accusation option ending correctly
Lev over-world ambush maps now always have Crawlers spawn correctly if chosen for ambush
Lev Soldier repeatable conversation fixed [Windows]
Given correct items by Hunters now when following that arc
Issues that could arise with Linguistics pick pocketing power words now working as intended
Pillar entrances near ruins now only open as intended
Polymorphing and moving between overworld (or loaded) maps triggers characters to return to normal first
Spell issue with Planar Jump for some players now resolved, skill points save correctly on level up
In westernmost lighthouse you can now leave through main door from the inside
Agile Fighting skill (when equipped) during level up now fixed
overall EXP reduction for killing enemies
small rebalance of some mid-late game enemies for added STR, DEX, OCC

Next Update will have some additional minor issues resolved, and some rebalancing which includes:

overall less AC acquired by Shield Mastery — changing to a flat increase with 1d(Skill Point)
reducing spell buff potency from some like Amplify
more magic damage for damage dealing spells like Searing Light, healing spells effectiveness reduction
enemy rebalancing for more difficulty mid to late game

We’ll be making late game enemies more difficult in some various ways we’ll talk about in the patch notes, including doing increased overall damage to overcome higher potential AC numbers, having larger OCC resistances (like Vra and some sorcerers that are near impervious to magic), INT for offensive spell damage and more spell skills points for sorcerers, and overall higher PHYS dodge chances for late game characters. More details with next patch notes!

Release

RPG Singleplayer

A true role-playing adventure.

A campaign within the world of Vol, a fully realized setting inspired by the late bronze age in a Transylvanian landscape, with unique politics, races and gods steeped in history. Featuring a chosen party of five, you role-play Necholai, a minor god of a celestial body who descends to the Staglands for a moonlit festival only to find the way home blocked and immortality slipping away. Seeking answers and aid, you take on a mortal body and the guise of a traveling Spicer. This isn't a story of good and evil, saving the world or being a hero, it's about intrigue and your adventure of survival in a harsh land.

While the game rolls the dice for you, you'll traverse the Staglands on a path narrated by your own wits and choices. A tabletop inspired experience with adventure-game like navigation, Serpent in the Staglands offers no auto-populating map markers, checklist quest grinding and rigid story exposition.

Examine hand-drawn maps in your inventory for secret locations, diagrams of foreign languages, note encounters of interest in your in-game journal and figure out on your own how best to smuggle Spices. Roleplay, investigate, and pray to the RNG god when combat begins.

Serpent in the Staglands features:

Party-based, real time with pause combat focused on macro tactical decisions and creative party skill combinations
Classless role-playing system: create builds via any combination of the over 100 magic, combat and aptitude skills available to create or find up to 5 unique characters
Non-linear storyline to explore as your adventure allows
No level scaling or story-blocked map barriers impede your adventure
Dynamic item use, including an incantation book, hand-drawn maps, and a herbology kit for brewing potions
Combat designed for minimal pause spamming and without cooldowns, instead focusing on pre-buffing, positioning and auto-triggering skills
An unmarked map filled with wilderness, cities, towers, temples, dungeons and caverns to explore.
Write your own journal notes for quests, puzzles and leads as you investigate. The game won't hold your hand or tell you what to do.
Huge variety of enemies and challenges, including monsters, rogue mages and mutilated outlaws, which all can have the same spells and skills you do

You'll never pay for updates, patches, or DLC of any kind for Serpent in the Staglands.
