The New Build is OUT - Patch 0.5.14. - codename: Bandage
Our EA release has been an emotional roller coaster on both sides. Most managed to hold on tight, some even got to the finishing line (took them ~50 hrs on average) but there were also many who fell out of the carts. Sorry about that. Know that most of the root causes are bugs and not intended design.
In retrospect, parts of the game could have been much better balanced, some critical features should have been added before the release. On the other hand, we did not have enough fresh eyes and those areas were confirmed 'okay' by hundreds of veteran players who played on way harder versions than the current one (survivor bias). Considering that, it is great that we got a new wave of players and learned about those issues, so now we can focus on the right things. Truth be told, if we entered EA a few months later we would have developed a bunch of new stuff and jumped into the same hot water. It will get better, though, promise. Time to dive into the list of immediate fixes we have applied.

Hi Folks,
Our EA release has been an emotional roller coaster on both sides. Most managed to hold on tight, some even got to the finishing line (took them ~50 hrs on average) but there were also many who fell out of the carts. Sorry about that. Know that most of the root causes are bugs and not intended design.
Have we entered EA too early? - we asked ourselves. Well, Yes and No.

A vast continent is yours to explore, filled with unique locations, strange factions, lurking dangers, and a lot of characters you can interact with. In order to punish the Empire for their sins a thousand years ago, the Elder Gods manifested themselves in the world, letting loose powers that ended up devastating it. Following this Calamity, the Empire was slow to rebuild and became a dark caricature of its former image. The continent is now a wasteland, riddled with arcane anomalies, twisted monsters, and undead.

Pick your background from trader, mercenary, or explorer; work for factions, follow rumors and trading opportunities; acquire wealth, gain fame, and discover hidden knowledge. The world is sandbox, yet it is filled with hand-crafted content.

The player can recruit a wide variety of companions into the caravan to serve in versatile roles, such as scoutmaster, guard captain, quartermaster, or navigator. Each of them comes with their own combat skills, background stories, and personal quest lines that, when completed, can upgrade them in unforeseen ways. They can progress through experience levels to become more potent crew members as well as in combat.
