New Version 0.12
We have collected a lot of interesting feedback from the first players of the Early Access version. We would like to talk about the balancing specs and challenge level of Lords of Xulima, since it has been a common theme among community discussions.
First, while balance and difficulty often go hand in hand, they are a little different in their meanings. A lack of balance would mean that the game has mechanics and rules poorly implemented, which can damage intended gameplay. For example; a class might be much more powerful than others; some specific sets of equipment might make the party invincible, while others might be less effective; some skills might outshine the rest of what a character can learn, others may prove less satisfying; the in-game economy (too little or too much gold for the player), which is delicate to balance in a large game, could be off. A game can be balanced, and still offer have a high level of challenge to the player, which is our goal with Lords of Xulima. The Classic difficulty setting is similar to what could be experienced in the good old days. If you are still building your familiarity with the RPG genre (which means Lords of Xulima should also be for you), it is normal to experience a bit of difficulty as you encounter everything the game has to offer. Especially in the beginning, when players have yet to learn various mechanics and understand all the tricks at their disposal.
In order to adapt the game a little better to general player expectations, we have renamed the difficulty modes in order to allow everyone to pick a mode better adapted to their preferences. The 3 difficulty settings are now: Normal, OldSchool Veteran and Hardcore, respectively. Also, we understand that some players love to simply jump right in, and so have added an option to lower the difficulty setting without having to restart your game. Many players are opting to go with the Classic setting, expecting it to be the smooth Normal mode they are used to. But, this was always meant to be for RPG veterans, and we admit that perhaps the choices offered were perhaps overly punishing to new players. We want you to enjoy a modern take on the old-school gems, and perhaps contribute to raising awareness on the great traditions of a great genre.

Balancing Vs Difficulty level
First, while balance and difficulty often go hand in hand, they are a little different in their meanings. A lack of balance would mean that the game has mechanics and rules poorly implemented, which can damage intended gameplay. For example; a class might be much more powerful than others; some specific sets of equipment might make the party invincible, while others might be less effective; some skills might outshine the rest of what a character can learn, others may prove less satisfying; the in-game economy (too little or too much gold for the player), which is delicate to balance in a large game, could be off. A game can be balanced, and still offer have a high level of challenge to the player, which is our goal with Lords of Xulima. The Classic difficulty setting is similar to what could be experienced in the good old days. If you are still building your familiarity with the RPG genre (which means Lords of Xulima should also be for you), it is normal to experience a bit of difficulty as you encounter everything the game has to offer. Especially in the beginning, when players have yet to learn various mechanics and understand all the tricks at their disposal.
You can now change the difficulty level
In order to adapt the game a little better to general player expectations, we have renamed the difficulty modes in order to allow everyone to pick a mode better adapted to their preferences.

We want you to enjoy a modern take on the old-school gems, and perhaps contribute to raising awareness on the great traditions of a great genre.

Legend has it that many years ago, people lived in peace on the great continent of Rodinia; a peace that would not last. Soon, the Great War broke out, dragging every kingdom and village down an endless spiral of ruin and desolation. The people prayed for salvation from the Nine Gods, whose unreachable homeland lay beyond the Great Sea, on the forbidden continent of Xulima.
Eventually, the conflict came to a point where it threatened to ruin all creation. Thus Golot, Lord of Works and Dreams, appeared to Gaulen, a seasoned Explorer who lived on a remote island off the coast of Rodinia. The Lord of Works appointed Gaulen to be his Herald on Earth and to set sail for Xulima, so that balance could be restored to the world. Thus begins the adventure of our young protagonist.
Create and customize five characters to accompany Gaulen on your journey. With 9 character classes and over 100 useful skills, the possibilities are endless. Each group will be unique. Who will you decide to take with you? Choose among familiar classes such as the Mage, Cleric, Barbarian, Soldier, Thief, Bard and Paladin or try out the Arcane Soldier and Divine Summoner.
