Dear Brave Adventurers,
It has been two months since the official launch of the game, and we are actively working to address various issues highlighted by the community. We are also steadily developing new content.
In this significant update, we addressed the frequently raised issue of lost weapons. Now, when a player's character dies, all dropped weapons will be retrieved by Pech and respawned near the resurrection point. You won't need to rummage through the monastery anymore. Please note that this feature will not activate if you use the teleport feature, to avoid a situation where a bunch of weapons rain down on you every time you arrive at a teleport point. Overall, this adjustment will greatly enhance the gameplay experience. We welcome any further suggestions and encourage you to participate in the community discussions.
Furthermore, we have increased the frequency of physics calculations. We have also addressed the issue of weapon penetration through monsters, which Meta Quest players have reported. While it's hard to eliminate this issue for now, our testing indicates that only high-speed and short attacks may be missed. We hope these improvements will enhance the experience for Meta Quest users.
In terms of future plans, we are intensifying our preparations for the arena mode, along with a storyline and quests that complement this mode. The arena will be an extension of the main storyline, featuring its own narrative threads that are still connected to the main plot. The rewards obtained from the arena will also help us explore the main storyline more effectively.
We remain dedicated to improving players' experiences and fostering an active and open community. If you have any insights about Grimlord, we invite you to join our community discussions.
