Buy a few best in slots, leave reserve for a few more kits, go pvp and stop looting.

#

You're asking for a system chance they spoke against because you're a loot goblin

#

In the mean time go spam post your suggestion some more @regal shale

regal shale
#

why stop looting?

vapid minnow
#

WHy be a drug addict?

#

Go pvp

verbal marsh
#

They are adding gold chests so we can get more mimic

agile condor
#

I do PVP? lol

regal shale
#

looting is the score for the treasure collector 🙂

#

i killed 150 people

vapid minnow
#

Thats it?

agile condor
#

People that PVP get even more loot lol

granite plinth
#

Introduce inflation, people will have an incentive to spend instead of hoarding

regal shale
#

i collected heads and golds

vapid minnow
#

You only get loot if you pick it up.

#

Stop pretending you dont make the choice to pick it up.

agile condor
regal shale
#

each classe.

vapid minnow
regal shale
#

150kills for ranger fighter barb rogue

steady cloud
#

Hi ?

vapid minnow
#

Okay, cool, and you still make the choice to overloot.

regal shale
#

then i didn't pvp?

vapid minnow
#

You're forcing an issue that they dont want to fix.

verbal marsh
#

That is part of those 10 min break intervals, ended up just pasting all my lewt in the trade window. It wasnt hard to get gold.

regal shale
#

i just enjoyed the game, but i don't wanna spend a lot of time for the selling and buying.

vapid minnow
#

Alright

#

You're a fkin troll

#

You dont want to spend all that time selling and etc

#

But you're over looting constantly

#

lol

upbeat pewter
#

Stop arguing with toulouse. Its not the type of person who evej cares what you think, or cares about talking about it

#

Not even sure why they are here

verbal marsh
#

I just sold blues at flat price I didn't even look at their stats lol

regal shale
#

i wanna kill in the dungeon, but i spent the time for buying more than kill and looting

agile condor
#

He's saying that he wants to spend more time playing the game how he enjoys, I don't think that's troll or wrong to want

vapid minnow
#

That's not what I'm saying at all.

granite plinth
#

I wish copy paste work for trading especially when I have 8 items to sell

regal shale
#

why did you think i'm troll?

vapid minnow
#

I'm saying he's forcing an issue on the devs with his suggestion and his inability to stop overlooting. And the devs said o to it already.

#

no to it*

regal shale
#

i just wanna spend time more efficiently

vapid minnow
#

Have some more self control.

verbal marsh
#

Most times I sold I only sat in trade for maybe 1 min.

#

then would que back up

agile condor
regal shale
#

what self control

#

what is your self control

vapid minnow
regal shale
#

saying cursing word?

vapid minnow
#

He's complaining about having too much crap in his inventory

#

I say "stop overlooting"

#

You say its a "jab"

#

now you're both blocked.

regal shale
#

stop overlooting?

#

haha

#

looting is happiness of the game

#

see other player's inventory

#

didn't day full their inventories?

vapid minnow
#

Yeah, see, this is why you're a troll.

regal shale
#

someone hired to send theire money and items to other characters

vapid minnow
#

Or you're just too dumb to talk to.

regal shale
#

isn't it funny?

vapid minnow
#

Goodbye.

regal shale
#

thank you

#

i'm happy to hear of you

vapid minnow
#

Enjoy not seeing your suggestion go through btw.

regal shale
#

because you just said

#

cursing words

#

only

agile condor
regal shale
#

not solution

vapid minnow
#

Have some more control over your intent with this game. You're over looting and crying about it on a 6 day PT.

#

Especially

#

ESPECIALLY

#

when they said they dont want to go the route you suggested

#

L O L

regal shale
#

thx

#

i respect you

#

and i got your answer

#

"he is troll" "he has span of a fish"

dense girder
#

You will be timed out for being rude. Please come back later @vapid minnow

wintry forge
#

So, the first level will be a forest? Will that be inside or outside the dungeon?

granite plinth
#

I want a castle map with spirling stairs, something a little more fancy

agile condor
green dust
wintry forge
#

The faq says 3 levels in total are planned. Is that still true?

agile condor
#

Yeah, that too but inferno also has "towers" of sorts

agile condor
smoky yoke
#

does B2 have variant maps if not 3? right

#

like in the playtest 2#
but we can also see some maps like in the trailer one from steam
so many maps

rocky oar
#

B2 and B3 had 2 different maps

#

B2 had an addition 2 on highroller

smoky yoke
#

it's nice to have some variants

#

what about the map showed in the trailer on steam? the one with the lava/magma

rocky oar
#

I've actually never seen that before

smoky yoke
#

i think there were also others in their youtube channel iirc

agile condor
#

I felt like I saw a different layout inferno map 1 run but never saw it again, so probably was just confused as to where I was or something

smoky yoke
#

i'd like to see it live, cause seemed to have also some parkour to do

#

to find a chest

smoky yoke
rocky oar
#

Oh wow

#

I never saw this

#

I'd imagine that's what will replace B3

#

Because they said they wanted a dragon boss which would be harder than the current bosses

smoky yoke
#

but yes, seemed an inferno map i think but not sure

rocky oar
#

what is b2 called?

smoky yoke
rocky oar
#

B2 called Crypt?

#

Ima stick with that for now. That's wrong however because Crypt is gonna be B1, Hell is B2, Inferno B3

lucid root
#

Crypt or graveyard could be part of forest

smoky yoke
#

at 0:52 you can see this parkour with magma/lava lol

rocky oar
#

Yea I just saw that

smoky yoke
#

ah okok

rocky oar
#

I am assuming that's future B3

smoky yoke
#

cool btw

rocky oar
#

With a dragon boss

#

Which would fit the theme

smoky yoke
#

yes

#

a bloody skeleton dragon

agile condor
smoky yoke
#

never seen

rocky oar
#

There is no inferno map right now

#

just Crypt and Hell

smoky yoke
#

technically the inferno map is the red portal we saw

#

basically the hell

lusty wren
#

Devs 100% called the "hell" map infernal 😄

agile condor
#

They call it Inferno

rocky oar
#

lol wut

smoky yoke
#

from latin infernus, it's basically hell
like dante's inferno

agile condor
#

It's even in the stats

rocky oar
#

What are they calling future B3 then?

smoky yoke
#

i honestly tought B3 wasnt inferno map
but seems i was wrong

lusty wren
smoky yoke
lusty wren
#

Forrest is B1, Crypt B2, Inferno B3

verbal marsh
#

wouldnt mind seeing some elden ring styles lizard people lol

smoky yoke
#

yea

agile condor
rocky oar
#

Forest?

smoky yoke
agile condor
smoky yoke
#

but basically the red portal of B1 will port you in B2

lusty wren
opal sparrow
rocky oar
#

they literally said Crypt is gonne be B1 though

#

with Inferno being b2

lusty wren
#

No they did not

#

They said forrest is B1

#

Crypt is b2

#

inferno is b3

rocky oar
#

They absolutely did.

lusty wren
#

There is a graphic for it somewhere

rocky oar
#

Let me find this shit

lusty wren
#

Look it up

smoky yoke
lusty wren
#

They said B1 (forest) will have the difficulty that b2 has now

smoky yoke
#

yes

lusty wren
#

2 crypt maps

smoky yoke
#

yes but i hope more

lusty wren
#

4 inferno

#

I am sure there will be

rocky oar
#

u know

#

nvm

lusty wren
#

😄

lusty wren
rocky oar
smoky yoke
#

they said also ghost king and lich are bosses of B2

#

which not sure if they fit tbh but might make sense

#

then i wonder which boss there will be in B3

agile condor
lusty wren
rocky oar
#

dragon im assuming

#

cause they talked about wanting to do that

lusty wren
rocky oar
#

jesus

smoky yoke
rocky oar
#

yea

smoky yoke
#

dragons in the end can be different size

lusty wren
#

So If b2 is the difficulty of Current B3 The new B3 difficulty should be fun 😄

smoky yoke
#

rip

rocky oar
#

lol

#

hopefully it actually drops loot

smoky yoke
#

probably

rocky oar
#

going to inferno feels not worth

lusty wren
rocky oar
#

loot drop barely increases at all

agile condor
rocky oar
#

that's wild

lusty wren
#

But it will probably be better loot than the other two

#

just reduced from what we have now

rocky oar
#

I legit never got anything from inferno

lusty wren
#

I did lots

smoky yoke
#

then you kinda be filled that you dont really wanna go in inferno maps

lusty wren
#

Went there every raid that I made it to a red portal

smoky yoke
verbal marsh
lusty wren
#

Once you learn it its actually very easy

rocky oar
#

Only reason I go is for the gold pile spawn that has the centaur

agile condor
#

We always went to inferno to kill boss

rocky oar
#

cause I would literally kill everything and loot all the chest and get absolutely nothing

agile condor
#

Boss had guaranteed loot

verbal marsh
#

I usually just did the dogs and the mage, easy room

rocky oar
#

I didn't do boss, teammates kept messing up the fights non-stop

#

couldn't trust anyone to do it ever

lusty wren
#

I am sure the loot will increase over B2 but overall loot tables will be lower. So not sure how it will feel

verbal marsh
#

good loot on mage on that level also

agile condor
#

I wouldn't mind a little less loot - felt like people were able to get super farmed in just a week

smoky yoke
#

even spamming projectile missiles as 3 wizards sometimes not enough to kill the boss in B3

rocky oar
#

That is most looter games

verbal marsh
#

I thought the drops were fine no drops you get bored

smoky yoke
#

i think the loot will be tuned down as they hinted but you can probably get the same amount by looting other people
if you loot multiple people in pvp

agile condor
verbal marsh
#

ew

agile condor
#

lol

smoky yoke
#

minecraft

verbal marsh
#

next you'll want my black card D:

#

Gotta love that pve toggle.

#

I think they should add it actually I'm going to thumbs up that one

#

I think he should update it to state that it just changes the expression on your face.

#

If you commonly murder with it on it changes your smile into a mad hatter style evil look

smoky yoke
#

the only reliable pve only mode is just with no loot that doesnt interfere
with only 3 portals spawned randomly and are just only 3
and you have to find them before the circle closes while you surviving to the monsters
but pve monsters is not a big concern that imo not sure if it would work

#

they would have to rework almost everything to make it work

verbal marsh
#

nah its just a toggle that states you're friendly in-game. if you murder with it on your friendly face starts to look a little less friendly.

#

so you'll have those friendly people that just really want to look at your face lol

smoky yoke
#

mmh

verbal marsh
#

then get murdered

#

lol

mossy ruin
smoky yoke
#

probably they will tweak the amount of loot in early access/full release

verbal marsh
#

kinda reminds me of elden ring if they did that, cause people liked seeing your custom face

smoky yoke
#

they increased just so that we can find stuff during playtests

smoky yoke
#

btw seems the dev doesnt want this game to be a battle royal and that circles are just a tool

#

which is cool

steady cloud
#

@wintry forge i dont like that suggestion

verbal marsh
#

Sounds cool, the playtest has been great.

smoky yoke
#

i can check the message again

rocky oar
#

that would make a lot of people actively avoid other people

smoky yoke
#

sdf said

Battle royale is not the direction we are aiming for. Circles are just tools.

#

so circles might actually change or something

#

who knows

#

glad they are not aiming for battle royale
that genre isnt that nice, at least for me

verbal marsh
#

if the levels were big enough it could just be a pvp start mechanic when people get in range hrm.

wintry forge
smoky yoke
#

they could increase the tileset maybe

#

and adding more players id guess

smoky yoke
verbal marsh
#

I was hoping to see the rumored 30 man dungeon

rocky oar
#

That's b1

#

as far as I know

smoky yoke
#

i think it should be 33

wintry forge
smoky yoke
#

then in B2 16 players?

#

if in B1 theres that many players then the map will be giant

#

i liked 16 players as total though
more chances to play

verbal marsh
#

depends on how they plan to deploy b1 tho

#

I mean it could be that half generally just escape rather then go down.

smoky yoke
#

then inferno only 1 or 2 teams
cause most of time only few people go there

#

from 30 to 16 in b2 then b3 only maybe 6 people lol or 3

#

depends if they want to go there

verbal marsh
#

I would imagine you don't tend to run into people easily in b1

smoky yoke
#

sometimes it turns pve only mode in inferno maps cause no one wants to go there

#

3 vs monsters lol

#

and even if people dislike pve, they still like doing pve there somehow
very often happens to be only 3 people in inferno maps

verbal marsh
#

Well if they make integrated que's that won't be a huge issue.

#

Did they mention whether they were adding some quest during the next pt?

wintry forge
opal sparrow
# wintry forge Why not?

the devs should probably focus more on the game in general, than animate every single action differently.

smoky yoke
#

not a good reason to downvote a potential good idea though

opal sparrow
smoky yoke
#

the devs would focus on the game regardless

#

you can suggest one thing just to keep in consideration stuff for a future time

verbal marsh
#

there is some professional satire in the way the animations were done imo

#

a bit o' a pantomime

wintry forge
verbal marsh
#

Its better then the concept of adding loot goblins

agile condor
#

I wouldn't mind better animations but I'm also fine with the current ones

agile condor
verbal marsh
#

I argue the point tosses finger up dramatically

smoky yoke
#

but for every class

verbal marsh
#

no pray animation that will just be people giving head.

smoky yoke
#

why?

agile condor
#

They could add hundreds or thousands of animations, it's nearly endless. Some more might be nice, but people will always ask for more.

smoky yoke
#

this one is already present though, it's just a matter to add it when you pray to the statues

#

it does fit

verbal marsh
#

during the interaction que would be fine

smoky yoke
#

when you interact with the statue, i think there isnt even any animation
or just the classic one

agile condor
#

I'm out for the night, behave & be nice XD

verbal marsh
#

not as a self driven emote however, dont need priest trying to give me head

smoky yoke
#

when you interact with the statue getting the buff

#

the statues look like fantasy gods to me, makes sense there would be some praying animation while you get the buff

agile condor
smoky yoke
#

mica vista julian to the statues

verbal marsh
#

If they thy do a pray emote they should always have the fingers touching the forehead and to fingers facing the sky so its more like that Japanese joke kids play

#

I would be okay with them being annoying that way but no low hands lol

#

Nope more I think about the more I prefer the animations how they are

rocky oar
#

I just want my Warlock class

verbal marsh
#

gumu gumu gumu

agile condor
verbal marsh
#

Only really need most popular in souls styled game. Any more is just extra.

#

Surrender, point, cutthroat were perfect.

rocky oar
#

I would love warlock with demon imp or sucubus pet type deal but I doubt that would happen

#

pets are always impossible to balance in this type of game

steady cloud
#

I dont like it

granite plinth
#

@wintry forge why u dont like my suggestion?

mighty condor
#

I don’t like it either

#

let the record know

granite plinth
#

devil fruits will make the game fun

steady cloud
#

I like ur idea it gives good and unique gameplay @granite plinth

agile condor
granite plinth
vapid minnow
#

Because its from One Piece.

granite plinth
vapid minnow
#

You want this company to face a lawsuit as well as change their entire modus operandi just because you're a fan of one piece?*

rocky oar
#

I just hate how people keep suggesting shit that will never happen when they have stated this game is based of the DnD fantasy setting

agile condor
#

Probably best to ignore & move on, I’d imagine if someone here is posting to truly troll, then an argument is exactly what they’re looking for

rocky oar
#

Never had to block so many people until this discord bro

#

it's wild

agile condor
#

Same actually hah

granite plinth
vapid minnow
#

You're getting my downvote.

agile condor
#

Lawsuits aside, I just think it’s a bad idea that doesn’t make the game better in any way. Also it doesn’t do anything for Rangers sooo… rip hah

granite plinth
#

you can add benefits for rangers too, maybe a knockback effect

#

I alt-tabbed from my game and now it crashed... GG

agile condor
#

Ehh I think if you want these type of temporary abilities or abilities like you described, say that in the suggestion or think of a way/flavor that at least comes close to the current game

granite plinth
#

indie games with no windowed fullscreen option smh

#

did this game have a windowed full screen or should i suggest it

agile condor
#

Hmm, I’ll answer but did you play the game? As a windowed full screen gamer, wouldn’t you already know?

granite plinth
#

yes

#

and no, i play a lot of indie games so i tend to forget...

agile condor
#

It supported windowed full screen

#

@steady cloud just link ur credit card to them at this point man

#

so they can develop the game faster, give them ur money, you sound like u want to anyways

steady cloud
elder heart
#

for everyone who wants a solo que just git gud

rocky oar
#

lol

ionic mango
#

@steady cloud but u wanna pay for classes and items, thats not gm powers anyways, so just give them the money

manic iron
elder heart
#

Thats their problem

manic iron
#

its called a suggestion

#

can just vote against it lol

manic iron
#

may aswell just say you want p2w right?

ionic mango
#

whos getting butthurt hes saying git gud

manic iron
#

yh may have read it kinda wrong

#

my b

ionic mango
#

gotta respect a man that can back down

#

<3

manic iron
#

only problem with text tbh lol

rocky oar
#

I like solo as an option. I was top 15 last playtest so I is the gud but, having solo is always nice when ya don't wanna deal with 3 mans anymore for a bit

smoky yoke
#

sometimes it's possible to find solo players as solo

manic iron
#

i think duo isnt a good option tho

#

only solo and trio

manic iron
smoky yoke
#

for now it appears that the maps and disposition of enemies are designed for trios
even though of course it's possible doing solo still

smoky yoke
manic iron
#

yh im not opposed to just trio but i feel would make more people play the game

#

which is all i want

smoky yoke
#

ah maybe for sure
but they could also do the matchmaking
where it can put you in a trio already
the problem is that who knows if they will be real friends or just toxic people doing team kill

manic iron
#

but i feel like adding p2w is defo not the way to go

smoky yoke
#

they wont

manic iron
#

yeah i mean look at tarkov no one teams up with randoms unless through discord

#

you know someones getting blsated at start haha

smoky yoke
#

i guess like in any other game
so yea

#

i dont mind solo que

#

but it may split up the playerbase

muted crag
#

What the hell does eveeyone even mean by solo que at this point?

smoky yoke
#

if we found the games instantly it was because there was no matchmaking at all splitted in stuff

manic iron
#

it would have to be tested tho coz like you said the dungeons are made for 3 mans

#

so you only matchmake against other solos

muted crag
#

Lame

rocky oar
#

It's the norm

smoky yoke
#

adding solo que could impact the matchmaking

rocky oar
#

In literally any PvP game

manic iron
#

yh thats why if anything id only say solo and not duo

smoky yoke
#

and you may find less players
the thing it seems like even if there are few people, the game starts regardless

manic iron
#

as 3 gamemodes would be too much

muted crag
#

Yeah. Those are lame.

smoky yoke
#

so even if you are solo in the lobby, it would make you start
even if there arent people lol

muted crag
#

The threat of there being a 3 man team must persist.

manic iron
#

tbh tho it doesnt stop solos join trio lobbies happens in most games

#

people wanna set records for kills solo in trio lobbies

#

as i said idc i play wizard so solo is fine

smoky yoke
manic iron
#

but if it gets more scrubs into the game im down

muted crag
#

Fighter solo was smooth last test.

manic iron
#

i like wiz rogue and ranger solo

#

im not great at fighter

smoky yoke
manic iron
#

barb aint it tho for me loool

smoky yoke
#

and even inferno maps maybe

gaunt scroll
#

has speed has invisibility and has dps the bad stuff is low hp

smoky yoke
#

cleric 🥲

rocky oar
#

Some people don't like playing with others so there's Solo which is nice. Then there is 3 mans and ima be honest, I don't like running into a solo player cause its like wtf. They have no fighting chance and I'm here trying to get a good PvP fight

manic iron
#

if cleric had a tiny bit more range on his weapon he would be ok

#

his mace sucks lol

smoky yoke
#

doing squads

muted crag
#

The arrow delay of bows on ranger is fo much for me, and I do bot speak for the arrows travel time, but the time it takes for an arrow to spawn in flight once fired.

manic iron
#

and just take pots for heals

#

but i have my ranger set up for headshots

muted crag
#

I speak of an issue, you of a preferance.

#

Crossbow and spear ranger gang tho.

manic iron
#

never really used spears on ranger might have to try it lol

#

just wish the game was up now haha

#

gonna have to go back to tarkov i guess

muted crag
#

Nothing better than keeping rogues at bay with a long stabbing stick to the face when all they have is a needle.

manic iron
#

honestly the worst feeling is going to a room with no shield and getting rushed by 3 rogues

#

just got to accept your fate at that point

wary shell

Based boob slider suggestion

muted crag

-move speed for the cow status.

steady cloud

It is the standard we are looking to break, Desolent.

steady cloud
#

I paid 10k for epic 7 and im not even top 10k

manic iron
#

yh dunno what that is meant to mean

muted crag
#

It means they're a whale.

manic iron
#

ooof

muted crag
#

That, or theyre some tencent/EA agent doing their worst to ruin things, along with Bean.

smoky yoke
#

imagine if tencent will try to contact dark and darker 🥲
but i have faith they would just refuse the proposal

manic iron
#

fr defo smoking on that EA pack

smoky yoke
#

early access is fine btw
the thing is that they have already planned a deadline for the ea
it's pointless asking to release the game now

muted crag
#

Much is still yet to be done.

smoky yoke
#

yea

smoky yoke
steady cloud
smoky yoke
#

they said many features are still missing

steady cloud
muted crag
#

You literally cant, as it wont happen.

smoky yoke
#

now seems like they are working to implement VOIP

#

hopefully it's like a proximity chat

#

but i guess its going to be like that

manic iron
smoky yoke
#

not sure if it does really fit the game but, extra stuff in the end

smoky yoke
manic iron

EA it's dead as company
but since they are famous they keep going somehow

manic iron

somehow lol

smoky yoke

lol

#

fifa 4055 rip

manic iron
#

no more fifa games now

smoky yoke
#

the same stuff
but luckily also those people are finally seeing how ea is bad

manic iron
#

they stopped paying for license

smoky yoke
#

lol

manic iron
#

gonna be EA football haha

Literally existing off of inertia be like

the only good things they did was like 10/15 yrs ago
but now just history

same with activision blizzard aswell

at some point everyone turns bad
taking bad decisions

i dont like how commercial games are

smoky yoke
#

thats why i like what ironmace stated in their website

somber wind
#

Same

smoky yoke
#

We’ve seen first hand how corporate game companies sell their soul for the easy payday. We are disappointed to see them doubling down on more and more exploitative practices, becoming more like casinos instead of bringing joy to gamers.

somber wind
#

AAA for the most part is corrupt and it's because at THIS point they've become old money

smoky yoke
#

yes

#

modern games have no originality

#

and some companies just aim for marketing only with ambitious games

somber wind
#

If you look at the designers and programmers for the games they release now and then go back to the games that you consider good NONE of them are there anymore.

smoky yoke
#

like forspoken, it will be mixed with reviews imo
going to be bad

#

can also mark my words

somber wind
#

Something that makes me extremely sad though

#

which is much worse than a company losing it's stars that make them good

#

it's when they do and then they are used at another company that doesn't accentuate their talent.

smoky yoke
#

yea they just hire programmers and designers and tell them what to do
even if those programmers and designers maybe would operate in a different way but they cant cause under control of the companies and also it's not their game rip

#

too bad

An example is James Wilson, James Wilson was an AMAZING level designer

#

He made INSANELY good FPS levels

#

He's now the level designer for Diablo as of Diablo 3

manic iron
#

and mw2 the game was great and they instantly fired nearly everyone

somber wind
#

That does NOT play into his talents

manic iron
#

the old mw2

manic iron
#

literally fire everyone who makes your best selling game lol

smoky yoke
#

yea most of time it's the company that changes

somber wind
#

Programmers and Designers are lightning in a bottle

#

you cannot fire those people

smoky yoke
somber wind
#

they are not replaceable

#

Artists can for sure be insanely important too

#

but that's only if you're stylized

manic iron
#

same with VAs

somber wind
#

VAs can be very important too yeah

manic iron
somber wind
#

I always forget about that because a ton of the games I play usually don't have VAs

#

That is one thing, Voice acting has held us back pretty hard when it comes to expansive writing for games

smoky yoke
#

rip the good old times
now there's only commercial games

somber wind
#

Nah we have indie game developers making it big everyday now

smoky yoke
#

yes

somber wind
#

Here's the thing

somber wind
#

Rare, Naughty Dog, etc. all of those USED to be Indie by the definition we have now

#

Banjo Kazooie was made by dudes in a Garage

smoky yoke
#

yes

somber wind
#

Literally

manic iron
#

swear destiny 2 had someone famous voice the robot thingy and replaced him lol

somber wind
#

Indie isn't some weird title for the unimportant

#

AAA is the title that is meaningless

#

AAA just means old money

#

which means major disconnect

manic iron
#

yh cyberpunk was AAA that was dog****

somber wind
#

Ok to be fair to Cyberpunk

#

The programmers thought they had 3 years more of dev time

smoky yoke
#

cyberpunk slightly improved a bit at least

somber wind
#

when they announced it was 6 months away from release

#

is when the Devs got told

#

it was 6 months from release

smoky yoke
#

but very bad launch

manic iron
#

yh cant lie ill never jump back on it even if they improved it

somber wind
#

It was the publisher's fault

#

not the team's

manic iron
#

i played 20 mins and then never touched it again

somber wind
#

that game could've been great

#

It's similar to what Bethesda did to Fallout New Vegas

manic iron
#

thats AAA for you tho

#

just a messy pile of poop

somber wind
#

Bethesda told them they had 16 months to work on F:NV

#

At Month 9

#

they were told they ACTUALLY had 12 months

#

and told to finish up

smoky yoke
manic iron
#

NV was amazing tho

somber wind
#

Oh 100%

smoky yoke
#

but they couldnt afford more delays probably

#

rip

somber wind
manic iron
#

i like bethesda bugs for some reason

#

what?

nocturne tinsel
#

New Vegas probably not the best example for your point, it won GOY.

somber wind
#

All of North West freeside

#

And ALL of post game

#

you know those endings?

#

They were supposed to happen

manic iron
#

tbf i didnt get it at launch

somber wind
#

Oh dude on launch it was a horrid thing

smoky yoke
#

they are great games, but imo it's also because the mods that fix countless and adds even infinite content about bethesda games

manic iron
#

i can imagine haha

#

wait is that the one where mateys head spins at start?

#

if so i did

somber wind
#

Yes

manic iron
#

ahh lol

smoky yoke
#

to me if a game wins goty doesnt mean much also

somber wind
smoky yoke
#

cyberpunk got the labour of love somehow when they didnt deserve it

manic iron
#

rushing stuff isnt the way

#

look at halo infinite

smoky yoke
manic iron
#

rushed and takes them stupidly long to release anything new

smoky yoke
#

to be kind maybe after halo 4

manic iron
#

yh fr

#

halo 3 was goated

smoky yoke
#

yes

#

the last real halo

manic iron
#

dunno didnt like the forerunner stuff

#

was ok

somber wind
#

Halo died after 3 because the dev team said "Ok this is the last one" then they were told OK make 1 more and we will REALLY bed one "Ok Reach, this is disconnected from the story so it's fine"

manic iron
#

reach i didnt like

somber wind
#

and then the game was given to 343

smoky yoke
#

rip

somber wind
#

since Bungie was done

#

and felt like the story ended at 3

nocturne tinsel
#

GOY back then meant a lot more than it does now, that's true. It's relative though, because the only game recently that's deserving of that title and what it used to mean, is elden ring

manic iron
#

reach is part of the lore in a sense but its still dog

somber wind
#

Bungie didn't care when making it is why

manic iron
#

fall of reach is a book and probably one of the only books ive read lol

somber wind
#

Halo 3 was best

manic iron
#

1000%

somber wind
#

I liked Reach though for a few things

smoky yoke
#

you could even use the arbiter in the campaign as 2nd player in local coop

somber wind
#

Forge mode in Reach was glorious

smoky yoke
#

in halo 3

New Vegas winning was literally 13 years ago. That's like an eternity in gaming lol

dark and darker is the goat now tho

#

buzzing for feb playtest

somber wind
#

Same

smoky yoke
#

lets go

somber wind
#

Dark and Darker is something I've been wanting for awhile

smoky yoke
#

fun game

#

hopefully it remains fun

nocturne tinsel
#

Dark and Darker is the ONLY game and game company I'm excited about. Open up steam, look at the Top Sellers, and it's all trash. Not Dark and Darker though, it is really special.

somber wind
#

I've literally had the same idea in my head for forever (not exactly 1:1 but the core of it), I'm so happy to see someone has actually done something close to what I wanted and ended up blowing my idea out of the water.

sacred hill
nocturne tinsel
#

Okay, to be fair, Elden Ring is also something special, but we are talking extreme exceptions to the rule, right?

somber wind
#

From Software is unlike most AAA because they just make what they want.

#

Armored Core wouldn't be coming back otherwise

smoky yoke
#

slightly disagree about from software at technical level

somber wind
#

Oh it's a MESS

#

Dude they use Lua and Excel sheets for Params

smoky yoke
#

they seems to be unable to expand their games for pc platform

somber wind
#

Seriously you can open their Param files with Excel

smoky yoke
#

yes

somber wind
#

The back end is horrible

nocturne tinsel
#

I code in LUA, it's not a bad language, but it isn't C#. Using Excel is like 90s software development, and super sketchy.

smoky yoke
#

they even left holes in dark souls 3, hackers could even access your pc
it doesnt surprise me

somber wind
#

Reminder that Dark Souls 3 still has code from Kings Field in it

#

You can find it

#

It's actually still there

smoky yoke
#

imagine being that company that leaves holes where hackers can access your pc
but somehow no one said nothing about

somber wind
#

Oh here's a funny one

smoky yoke
#

yea

somber wind
#

That From Software ALMOST got sued over

#

before patching it out

smoky yoke
#

king's field different times

somber wind
#

SO

#

Dark Souls 1 when it came out

#

had the models and UV maps

#

for a portion of Gears of War in it

smoky yoke
#

from software did many games, even the most unknown ones such kuon

nocturne tinsel
#

Have you read the mission statement from Ironmace? It is exactly what all the gamers want from a studio, and yet, we can only hand pick a few studios that actually deliver on the promise.

somber wind
#

Yeah we mentioned it earlier

but yeah after the patch since then for Dark Souls 1

#

we HAVE found that the Chainsawgun is still in there

but without textures

"Our Mission

We are a merry band of veteran game developers disillusioned by the exploitative and greedy practices we once helped create. We are experts who have worked on many of the biggest hits in Korea.

We’ve seen first hand how corporate game companies sell their soul for the easy payday. We are disappointed to see them doubling down on more and more exploitative practices, becoming more like casinos instead of bringing joy to gamers.

We’re fighting to win back the hearts of gamers around the world. We believe that by creating games with soul, and by respecting our users we can usher in a renaissance of awesome video games direct from Korea."

smoky yoke
#

elden ring using the same animations of demons souls 2009 lol

sacred hill
somber wind
#

Of course

#

We'll see when the monetization enters the game

#

The Skeleton skin scared me

#

even though I like the idea of races

smoky yoke
#

needs also to see if they do fomo

#

fomo even when money are not in, its still bad

#

regardless

somber wind
#

Fomo is fine tbh, cosmetics are not important

#

Like obviously it's bad but it's not like

#

BAD

smoky yoke
#

to me its never fine

somber wind
#

Ok let me clarify

#

Graphics do not matter whatsoever

nocturne tinsel
#

It could be marketing, but I think it might not be just marketing. At least I hope it isn't. How soul crushing would that be if it was?

somber wind
#

That said, again it's bad

smoky yoke
#

and fomo it's also used for other psychological tricks from greedy companies

somber wind
#

but not enough for me to say "On principle I will stop playing"

#

Oh I literally never buy cosmetics because they have no value

#

Only earned cosmetics do

#

It's either like

#

OOO this guy has this really hard to get skin that only 1% players have due to the difficulty of unlocking it

#

vs.

#

Nice Wallet

smoky yoke
#

i dont buy cosmetics either, i just like when they give the choice to buy them whenever you want and if you want

#

same works for the obtainable ones for free

nocturne tinsel
#

I love this game, but watching people play it 24/7 for leaderboards reminds me of those kids dying inside gaming cafes in Asia. I'm never making a leaderboard, that was a thing I cared about as a teenager.

smoky yoke
#

it's still experimental the leaderboard, at least for what they said

somber wind
#

I'd rather they did it like Let It Die's cosmetics, they're on a cycling timer; they never go away and are always available but only 6 cosmetics are available at a time and it changes which ones are there each week so sometimes it takes quite abit to come back around.

smoky yoke
#

but i doubt they are going to remove it

somber wind
#

If they'll do Fomo at all I mean

smoky yoke
#

i played let it die as well

somber wind
#

With the newest cosmetics being separate from that

#

until they "enter the cycle"

smoky yoke
#

the osts good
and also in the radio one

somber wind
#

Oh the OST is insane

#

They spent far too much money on it and the voice actors though

smoky yoke
#

but thats still very bad, and also too bad with their monetization
even if in the end if you play a lot you can go through floors but still

somber wind
#

As long as it has no form of Pay to Win I'm happy tbh

smoky yoke
#

then they did a next game, but didnt work much

#

it kinda is for some degrees

somber wind
#

But some of it's monetization is for sure really bad

smoky yoke
#

yes

somber wind
#

I don't mind the vending machine since you cant whale with it but the stew was messed up and the resurrect was messed up.

#

also Timers, screw timers

smoky yoke
#

🥲

#

good concept at least, from suda51

somber wind
#

I think the best way to do MTX for Dark and Darker would be paid cosmetics as well as a Seasonal supporter pack for cosmetics.

#

Seasonal Packs don't need to expire though, so no Fomo.

smoky yoke
#

great

somber wind
#

The idea WOULD be though what Path of Exile does where there is levels of Supporter.

#

Going from $10 to $500

smoky yoke
#

with fomo you just want people not even buy the game at all, its bad fomo

#

cause a portion of people when hear about fomo they just go away straight away

somber wind
#

Fomo when I care about whatever it is makes me not want to play

smoky yoke
#

better if there isnt any

somber wind
#

If I join late

#

It's why when I found Let it die originally and that Promotional event with Decals that would be discontinued already happened

#

Made it so I waited until PC version to play

smoky yoke
somber wind
#

Since it'd be separate servers

somber wind
smoky yoke
#

poe also f2p in the end so it is normal to have 500$ pack

somber wind
#

the $500 is literally just an outfit

smoky yoke
#

yea

#

but the game is f2p

somber wind
#

True but they were saying they want to at minimum support this game for 10 years with updates

smoky yoke
#

i dont mind cosmetics in dark and darker as long they will be forever available

somber wind
#

(Terence said it in an Interview)

smoky yoke
#

theres no reason to make them unavailable

somber wind
#

Oh I agree

#

What I was saying is just having Normal Cosmetics and Seasonal Cosmetics which also have price scaling for people who really want to help the developers

smoky yoke
#

they hinted a kickstarter
usually you can even put 5000$

somber wind
#

The $500 one is more of a donation to the company and less actual cosmetics with that worth

#

Straight up I feel like they should do a Patreon or something

smoky yoke
#

the problem is that to compensate they will give some extra stuff for who supports for different tiers
but hopefully they backers will get those stuff for first and then in future they add those same thing later
the point of kickstarter shouldnt be the one to get the extra stuff, but to support really from the bottom of the heart

#

if they would ever do a kickstarter

somber wind
#

As long as the tiers literally don't give anything of insane value I think it's fine

#

i'd be fine with like

smoky yoke
#

but usually kickstarter can also be universal goals
like bloodstained once did lol

somber wind
#

Titles or VIP Discord Channel

smoky yoke
#

like if they reack 10,000$ then they do x

somber wind
#

Well yeah that too

#

I like that stuff too

smoky yoke
#

if they reach 50,000$ they do x, y

#

yea me too

somber wind
#

Stretch goals and the such

smoky yoke
#

yes way better

#

than individual stuff

somber wind
#

But they've said this in the past that they really don't know 100% where they're going since they're changing all the time

smoky yoke
#

rip

somber wind
#

Which could make the stretch goals lies or worse lock them into something they don't want to do

smoky yoke
#

the goals are cool
in the kickstarter if they set properly

somber wind
#

They said they don't even want to do road maps

smoky yoke
#

those goals isnt a road map

somber wind
#

It becomes one in a way

smoky yoke
#

it's a roadmap only if they reach the funds

somber wind
#

It becomes a promise that feature will get in

#

Even if it becomes bad for the game

smoky yoke
#

yes, if they reach the funds they ask

somber wind
#

For example

smoky yoke
#

like PVE toggle on at 100,000$ ! ! 1 !
lol

somber wind
#

There was plans for Durability

#

That got thrown away

smoky yoke
#

roadmap but doesnt mean they will do until backers will crowfund that

somber wind
#

Yeah it's just it locks them into doing it even if they realize it'd hurt the game

#

for example if the said "Races including Dwarves"

#

If they realize Dwarves due to height would be bad for the game's balance

#

they cant back out of it

#

but they already promised it

smoky yoke
#

roadmap from the kickstarter is not 100%
cause it depends by the funding
official roadmaps are usually other, declared on steam usually or in other places

somber wind
#

So if they reach that goal

#

and they realize it was a bad idea

#

They either risk damaging the game

#

OR

#

risk backlash

smoky yoke
#

yes rip

#

but for kickstarter goals i usually would expect other
we will see when they will do it

#

then theres also the preorders for the early access from steam that helps to support even if steam takes the 33% rip

somber wind
#

I'm honestly thinking like

#

4 years down the line

#

when everyone who is going to play it is playing it with a slow trickle

#

of new players

smoky yoke
#

10yrs of support for dark and darker
then the 2nd game from ironmace

#

who knows what will be their 2nd game

somber wind
#

They DID say minimum 10

elder heart
#

maybe they wont make another game

somber wind
#

It also doesn't mean they cant make another game during it

smoky yoke
somber wind
#

but if they want this to be their opus project they could just pull a grinding gear games and make it their only game

#

that they put all of their power into

smoky yoke
#

maybe they will expand devs in the studio after the support from the first game

somber wind
#

Ye

#

Ight it's 5am for me, I should go to sleep lol

smoky yoke
#

yea id focus in one game as well

elder heart
#

like kingdom come: deliverance devs said that they wont make another game since they already made a shit load of money

smoky yoke

lol

@neon pecan Keep in mind the game design wants you to use your gear and gold and not store million gold worth of items and that's why its limited, but should be optimised obviously

neon pecan

@sacred hill 100% agree!

All those levers and knobs need to be tuned right, stash size, season length, drop rate.

I agree with the exit portal column suggestion. Once you have opened it, there should be nothing other than another player invis-stealing it or mobs catching you to prevent you from leaving, but I've had several close calls where the dang rock the scroll is on has almost gotten me killed before I could touch the portal

#

I don't think that's "difficulty" as much as it's "finicky and annoying"

#

I assume that just deleting them would cause the portal they spawn to vanish too, since they're probably linked objects, so I'm not sure how they would go about reconciling the situation

imo it would be bad removing them, part of the game in the end
else i feel like it would be easy to steal them

@real trellis Why the thinking vote for silver coins to be made into Silver items?

smoky yoke
#

knowing there is a column i feel like at least you are slightly protected and you can observe only one pathway while you do extra looting cause Greed
without the column makes you want just to leave

real trellis
opaque tusk
#

Fair enough. I played a lot of AD&D and thought it would be natural for Silver laced, tipped, and crafted items to be added for "special" mobs.

We all heard of Silver being super strong against Were-type enemies, whether it be a bullet, arrows, a stake (Vampires), etc....

Appreciate the feedback.

smoky yoke
#

could have a sense since we even can carry for a total of 2 weapons as slot but i doubt it will happen

opaque tusk

lol...just realized you can only make one suggestion every 6 hours. 😂

smoky yoke

better

lucid root

I like the poe hideout idea, I just don't like crafting/enchanting benches

For this game

opaque tusk
#

How does that work?

smoky yoke

would become too much complex

lucid root
exotic lotus
#

i read that they will add it on the interview that i saw, that is why i suggested it in the first place ^^

opaque tusk
lucid root
#

It's a player instance for crafting and enchanting gear, can decorate it and stuff

#

I quit right around when hideouts came out so idk the full extent of them

opaque tusk
lucid root
#

It kind of simplified the game in a way

opaque tusk
#

Right on.....i do like the suggestion for a Monster Manual of sorts. Maybe one that fills out as you encounter new mobs or killing a certain number of them?

lucid root
#

oh like a bestiary

opaque tusk
#

Yes 🙂

lucid root
#

@smoky yoke this guys idea

#

or his originally i think

smoky yoke
#

🙇‍♀️

#

yes i suggested the bestiary, cause i think it would fit

#

had like 102 thumbs up
so many people agree

opaque tusk
#

If you post it here ill upvote for sure.

smoky yoke
#

lemme find

#

wish id added more cause it wasnt very detailed anyway

opaque tusk
#

Since I cant make another suggestion for hours, ill post it here. The bestiary made me think of possible trophies from killing certain mobs? Maybe in a special manner? IE, beheading Medusa, killing a Vampire with a large crossbow?

smoky yoke
#

something like that could work, or simply the more you kill a monster you get more knowledge

opaque tusk
#

Trophies = Item of high value to bring out with you. Not like an achievement.

smoky yoke
#

this compendium of monsters is mostly needed for numbers, to analyze how many hp have each monster, the difference in their variants elite, nightmare ect
and a counter part for high roller dungeons since they probably have different hp as well
and of course also some lore about monsters, some fancy description about them

#

and also hinting about their special mechanic, like that spiders spawn to pots infinitely unless broken

#

btw i cant find my suggestion, probably it has been deleted

opaque tusk
lucid root
#

oop i didn't have it upvoted

exotic lotus
#

for me more reason to play the game = good idea ^^

smoky yoke
#

not very detailed, id added more specific stuff

exotic lotus
#

i mean there is a lot that can still be improved, maybe a jump attack or something for red mobs or boss to counter all the cheese that we have for the moment ^^

smoky yoke
#

like in this lore book you can also see the model of the enemy in the right page and in the left page there are stats/numbers and the lore description

#

you can look at it, rotate also if you want just as extra

opaque tusk
#

Just like a Monster Manual.....i like it.

exotic lotus
#

yeah

#

me too

smoky yoke
#

and if you click on it, the model can perform all of his moveset

lucid root
#

oh damn can't even edit suggestions

smoky yoke
exotic lotus
#

extend your idea to classes to so we can learn what the other class can do to

smoky yoke
#

ah yea, could be cool
it was a bit explained somewhere in the game but they could improve it more yea

#

at the bottom right there was some page where explained a bit the roles of the classes

what do you guys think of my 'get up from table' idea, seamless transition from the table to a tavern hangout lobby

opaque slate
smoky yoke
lucid root
#

i mean i brought it up multiple times here i just never made a suggestion for it

smoky yoke
#

in the training area

opaque slate
#

i guess someone else posted your idea then

#

bc i remember it being a sugg

lucid root
#

the only thing original i added was the sitting at table to tavern channel thing

exotic lotus
#

i mean a personnal space with a dummy is a must have anyway i think

lucid root
#

my idea was that when the perspective camera is switching around and your camera is locked into an orientation aimed at the table it'll do all the server connecting and loading assets

strange fiber

"Not much is known about the spiders jar though some say the jar holds a void but many not dare reach their fingers in to find out"

exotic lotus
#

xd

lucid root
#

then you can see all the peeples runnin around and the wet slappy feet

#

i hate spider jars Whaat

smoky yoke
#

i think a compendium of monsters its what devs would added even without my suggestion cause it is kinda good to know at least how many hp have an enemy
since the game is about numbers and min maxing

#

then adding lore also a nice extra in the lore book

strange fiber
#

tru I think would they add it 100%

smoky yoke
#

yea

lucid root
#

collect notes and lore pieces to read later

strange fiber
#

^ that would be fun

smoky yoke
#

its impossible they wont add it
cause enemies do have also variants
such red skeleton, ect ect

#

the species? like elite, nightmare

opaque tusk
#

It could be called the "DnD Handbook"

strange fiber
#

I just want LORE RageBarb

smoky yoke
smoky yoke
strange fiber
#

Dnd Handbook is here, but I think a separate monster/floor info would be nice

smoky yoke
#

wish something like a talking book, like librom from soul sacrifice delta

opaque tusk
smoky yoke
#

a game is also good when there are stats and you can have knowledge about it

lucid root
smoky yoke
#

that could work in synergy

lucid root
#

maybe some of the book shelves have secret highlights like the levers

opaque tusk
smoky yoke
#

collectibles that are visible to everyone maybe idk
and once collected all wont appear anymore i guess

dunno about that

imagine if they added new lore every season EyesShake

the ancient lore of dark and darker

opaque tusk
#

So while most of the suggestions appear to be for class updates (90% Rogues), there doesnt seem to be much for the environment. Specifically trap types and design. Any thoughts?

strange fiber
#

Hmm def want a pitfall trap

#

hopefully a spike doesnt go up my arse 😩

opaque tusk
smoky yoke
#

i think those trap spikes could have a different design at least, they seems to be unrealistic sometimes

strange fiber
#

like fall into a bed of spikes for what I mean

smoky yoke
#

and the spikes in wall have really have a short delay

opaque tusk
#

Pitfall is good for sure, what about a separating wall? Like after one person passes by, a new wall falls, cutting off the party?

strange fiber
#

that would be funny

smoky yoke
#

could be cool

strange fiber
#

as an ambush tool as well

smoky yoke
#

also seems like already walls can kill players in dark and darker

opaque tusk
smoky yoke
#

like those secret places that you open if you stand there and it closes you can die

#

or like the doors in the inferno maps lol if you close them while you are in the middle you can die rip

lucid root
#

getting crushed by big stone doors

opaque tusk
#

Exactly, so instead of doing it on purpose for loot, it could trigger by proximity, or a trip wire.

lucid root
#

in the killfeed "borg was killed by door"

opaque tusk
#

Just an fyi, feel free to post any of my ideas as i wont be around in time to put in the suggestions myself.

smoky yoke
#

it was used to be not a timer but it was better to put it preventing trolls, cause usually they flood that channel with some troll suggestions

#

like p2w stuff lol

opaque tusk
#

What about a Wall Mimic? It looks "almost" like a normal wall, but swipes or grabs a player if get too close?

smoky yoke
#

there should be at least a visible counterplay

#

like it is possible to avoid the traps in the wall by just crouching

#

some people also suggested about doors being mimics

opaque tusk
#

The detect and disarm trap feature really should have a place.

smoky yoke
#

every trap seems to be counterable
even the ones in the ground

#

i didnt know but just by crouching or maybe walking slowly it doesnt turn them on
unless was a bug

I know rogues can disable some traps

smoky yoke
#

the giant one
and also some people were using the blue potion also

Though I think a ranger should be able too since his literally places traps as well lol

#

yea those are aids lmao

smoky yoke
#

yea

#

but for what i remembmer if you crouch as well there it wont damage but i might be wrong

#

i tought at first was enough to throw a torch but nope

#

the delay too short

#

the ranger's traps not very visible sometimes
but if i see a ranger, i know he may have placed traps

#

even the sound helps
there are counterplays

#

they should maybe also reworked those, cause once you are trapped you have almost no way to escape, interaction speed slow to disarm them and as soon you try, the ranger finish the job

opaque tusk
#

I completely agree with what's in the game right now being "counterable". I'm suggesting that in the future, there will be traps that if players don't have the detect/disarm skill, they will have to either avoid, or take the damage.

smoky yoke
#

in playtest #2 there was a different type of mini game it appears which according to people was very tedious so they reworked again but still now they dont feel great

#

they should damage you + dmg over time but not blocking you just waiting the death
cause ranger will just kill you instantly

opaque tusk
smoky yoke
#

yea

#

things can change in future probably

opaque tusk
#

Oh it will, they are adding new content for sure. That's why I'm bringing it up. And the environment/traps are important. PVP will always be a huge part, but how players maneuver around the map is also vital.

After AI is improved, picking rooms to fight is going to be a lot more trickery, though I always hate the final circle ending in boss rooms

opaque tusk
#

Improved AI is going to be a huge benefit to the game. I hope we can't just run through room by room, only worrying about other players.

if the AI actually becomes challenging we're all effed

*Barb M. Bison through door meta

the new meta will just be don't agro anything

#

after AI is fixed people would be like heh stupid skeleton I'll just walk backw- then the skeletons thrusts forward

lucid root
#

oh god mobs with gap closers

strange fiber
#

you can say we're gonna get boned

smoky yoke
#

apparently 90% of internal testers died to their first monster they met

#

so id imagine with an improved ai

lucid root
#

i think i did

smoky yoke
#

i doubt it will change by much
just some stuff wont be not possible anymore
like cheesing at the top of some chests

opaque tusk
smoky yoke
#

lol

opaque tusk
smoky yoke
#

yea

strange fiber
#

yea for sure everything now its gonna have some ranged attack lmao

smoky yoke
#

only monsters that can give trouble in those spots are skeleton rangers or flying skulls

#

or give better pathfinding

#

cause if you stay at the top of a chest, mummies somehow cant attack you, even if they are so close at you

opaque tusk
#

I've seen that cheese work on Centaurs as well.

smoky yoke
#

they were using also the pavise as shield to block the path and killing the centaurs

#

they will probably add some durability for those shields at least

#

i guess

strange fiber
#

i hope when the centaur rams the shield, he'll ye'll IM THE JUGGARNAUT BITCHHH

opaque tusk
#

Yea, it doesn't seem right when you see it. Like pulling aggro from the wraith, and having your buddy crouch in a doorway to block him.

strange fiber
#

I would def want monsters to speak if they could

#

Lich is the only one so far

smoky yoke
#

maybe the bandits, if there would be any in the dark forest

#

in the first floor, of the next playtest

#

cause it appears that the first floor it would be located outside of the crypt, so probably in some forest

#

the bosses that were in B3 should have some nice cool creepy dialogues

#

those bosses apparently are for B2

strange fiber
#

hell yeah bandits make sense, I really want giant spiders though to piss my self

smoky yoke
#

more spiders, more giant this time
