Hey everybody! Thanks for all the great feedback this past few weeks. We've fixed a ton of bugs and made some major improvements.
Here's a quick Summary:
The Quest Journal: Before, you had little clues on what your current mission was, it was serviceable, but sometimes a little confusing. Now with The Quest Journal, you can see all your current quests and if you click on each one it'll show you what you need to do and where you have to go, it's super handy! Try if if you haven't already, it's the topmost menu button, the one with the feather icon.
Map Icons: Now the map is much easier to read, you have icons for the totems and for important things you need to find during your adventure, for example if you're into the crab quest and you go into The Quest Journal and select it, the map will show you where the crabs are, the same with most quests where you need to find something! You can summon the map pressing M or by selecting the map button on the menu, The Quest Journal will also show the map with quest related icons.
The Emuri Village: That area was closed to beta users for super long and now you can go there! Some people already visited it and died there a lot, some went and kicked ass! Our advice before you set foot there is: Gear up! Or you're going to have a rude awakening!
New lighting: We're still improving the visuals of the game a bit, and we just made some subtle lighting changes you might have noticed. It's not complete yet but you should see some flickering torches, character shadows and, if you have an artistic eye, much improved lighting all around to give Tanzia a much warmer and nicer look than before.
Bug fixes and tweaks: We're always working on improving the game, there's a ton of under the hood changes/fixes we made based on feedback and all the videos we're watching from Lets Players and Streamers. We fixed quests & combat balance issues and every day we add new stuff to the list!
