Howdy! We've listened to your feedback and released a major update today for all desktop and mobile platforms at www.DIRE.com to address most of it:
- The leveling grind is gone. (75% reduction)
- Bugs with movement and following are fixed.
- It's easier to join battles with your friends.
- Load times are 25% faster.
- NPC AI is at least 3x better.
- UI is fully designed for desktop (still working on keybinds menu).
- The NEW PLAYER GUIDE is in-game instead of a wiki page.
Many of you have asked why we've not launched on Steam yet!
Steam users have lofty expectations and we want to meet all of them. The game simply isn't ready yet for tens-of-thousands of piercingly judgmental eyes! We're a very small company with only a few employees, so it takes a little longer to polish rough edges.
Before launching on Steam we want to get Achievements in, finish up the new harvesting and crafting quests, complete our Leaderboard website, and create the new Guild Treasure system for you to battle over.
We estimate these can be done in about 15 days, but not guaranteed.
If you want to help us prepare for Steam release you can play right now! The game is available on all platforms at www.DIRE.com
