The winner of the raffle is @Captain Suave ! Check your DMs for your Steam key! Thanks to everyone who entered, and I hope you check out the game tomorrow!

...well, that's the duality of man in action, I guess.

That's so... inefficient. You only get 10 bank slots without bags, and a bag that gives you 6 slots for items of medium size or smaller costs only 1 silver and some copper. You can get 60 bank slots for a measly 15 silver, and by the time you find yourself needing more, you'll be able to easily...

FYI, shared bank slots were confirmed, they just haven't been implemented yet. As far as limited bank space goes, it's limited by the bags you purchase to fill your bank with. So while there is certainly a theoretical maximum, it's pretty large. I have about 100 slots of space on my main...

I don't know man, his first few days of frustration could've been solved by just inviting those other people running around fighting lowbie mobs to groups. A lot of these people are their own worst enemy. In the last test, I would routinely see 20-30 players LFG, but how many people actually...

Release is tomorrow! I'll be drawing the raffle winner for a free copy in about 8 hours.

Embers Adrift is specifically a "no magic" setting. There were three classes on launch, with each class having three specializations you unlocked as you leveled. It is not quest chain narrative focused (there were only a handful of quests on launch) and there were a few big dungeons, but they...

Maybe this is where we differ, because I think that the core loop is fun to engage with already.

I think the counter to what you're talking about is that Elden Ring's combat is difficult, M&M's is not. Elden Ring is designed in a way where the intention is to present a player with difficult challenges that take lots of repetition to eventually surpass. In a system like that, death can't...

Yeah, because we were all playing the game! Shawn said the likely explanation is that during the last test, there were a lot of people who had never heard of the game who tried it for the first time, saw how dark everything was at night or that they had to do a corpse run and quickly nope'd...

On the subject of corpse runs, do you think it would be better to get rid of them and just incur XP loss? I do think that there is an "adventure" component of corpse runs that provides a different kind of interactive gameplay from the core gameplay loop. It encourages me to dungeon crawl in a...

Test ends in an hour and a half. I'm not ready to say goodbye!

I know Shawn has already said he reads Quaid's post but I think the team is reading Kirun's posts too, so you guys should keep posting. 😛

Nick just confirmed on stream that the sandstorm is going to be nerfed. He wants it to be something that messes with you for a little bit but not an entire 24 hour cycle.

I agree with your post, and I would categorize it as a neat curveball, though maybe it does need to be tuned down a little.

Infravision/Ultravision is working for night time right now, and with the integration of the gamma slider it makes a notable difference.

Yeah man, based on your posts in this thread I can definitively say that, in its current state, this game is not for you. Check back in during full release in X years - maybe EA doesn't go well and they need to un-nichify their game, but as for me, I love the game and hope they keep this direction.

Maybe I misrepresented the experience, but the adventure certainly wasn't "pretend." It was an organic engagement with the weather, corpse, and navigation systems. Sure, we could've logged onto our other characters and used True North and Locate Corpse to make job easier, but we were already...

This kind of happened last night. Some of my friends were all trying the game for the first time and we all made goblins together. Night Harbor was pretty laggy so we decided to go XP in Sungreet instead. We were there for maybe 5 minutes when the dust storm started. We stayed close together as...

Dust storm at night in Sungreet Strand. Now THIS is gaming!

The music and some of the art was contracted out, everything else was all him. Thanks for checking it out!

It's Godot 4! The game itself is more of a roguelite than a Metroidvania, although some levels do have some Metroidvania-like elements (such as locked rooms needing keys or secret areas requiring certain upgrades).

We have a partnership with a PR firm that has been really helpful for helping the game get into different events and showcases (the release date trailer debuted at Gamescom). Aside from that, it's mostly been word of mouth and online ad campaigns (mostly Reddit).

How high were the ceilings?

For the past couple years I've been helping a buddy of mine with his solodev project KATANAUT, a sci-fi eldritch horror 2D pixel art roguelike. Inspired by Katana Zero and Dead Cells, KATANAUT involves slashing through hordes of enemies with an arsenal of over 150 skills, perks, and offhands...

That's crazy. We have a Memory Leak thread going on in the Discord if you want to report it there: Discord - Group Chat That’s All Fun & Games

I think a distance of 6 levels prevents the low level from getting XP.

Mounts are in the game. I'm not sure if they're enabled for this test, but there will be mounts you can purchase and ride for increased travel speed. As Gravel said, they're tabs on your inventory screen, and I think you can also access them in the independent social window (O hotkey). It's a...

Yeah, I think we might need a fourth healing class if this is going to be the design going forward.

Here's the complete patch notes since I know visiting a Discord server would break immersion for some of you:

I think the likelihood of this feature being implemented is high considering that a significant volume of their GM tickets in the last playtest were "I can't find my item" and it was almost always in a bag in the player's bank.

Please Shawn and Nick, please open the playtest early so we can talk about something less autistic than the height of ceilings in EQ.

Launch EQ2 was a mess, yeah, but by the first expansion the game was decent, and I think by the second expansion the game really came into its own as something bespoke and great. It might never have reached the same level of immersion as original EQ but it was mechanically very tight and was...

This game looks so good.

I have really good news for you.

This is so crazy to me because EQ2's Rise of Kunark was the beginning of making EQ2 more like WoW. Before RoK, the leveling experience was much more like EQ, where the best way to get XP was to group up and kill heroic mobs. RoK changed that by making the most efficient leveling method to be...

I haven't read all of the retarded drivel on the past couple pages but I will put forward that as much as I love M&M, if the boat ride is actually 4 hours long then you can bet I will never ride it (except when I'm planning on logging off for the day - I heard that you can log out on it and then...

This is the first I've heard of it.

Are there hell levels in M&M? I've only gotten to about level 10 so maybe I haven't experienced them yet.

It's so funny. All they had to do was assign a license to P99 instead of a lazy agreement and their IP rights would be iron tight.
