@Locke I would like to participate in testing, please.?

@kingzug
I like your thoughts on armor. Randomly generated items are really difficult to give descriptions to, so I’m really happy that you are interpreting it like that.

@Julie04 @Tylar11021
You already are! The build posted in my first post is the most recent build I have that’s at the quality I want for public testing. Once I post the combat update this is the first place I’ll go to to post the update. Thank you for being interested!

@freeki_Milliu
I like Log Horizon more too, it was a huge inspiration. The character’s build does influence their stats a fair bit, @Gattsu made a great breakdown of how some choices effect your stats at post 237. Depending on your choices there are optimal ways to climb the cliff - an agile character jumps, a strong character just powers through, etc. I don’t have plans to make it so the character’s body’s description changes over time based on stats since that would make the initial creation a bit of a mute point. But, as you level up you will be able to put points into different stats at the player’s choosing. So hopefully situations you ran into won’t happen as often since I’ll be able to make the stat requirements a bit more stringent as the player gets more levels.

Thanks for suggesting that, Taliesans will be able to have black hair next update. Unfortunately, I’m not planning on adding any more races unless they become plot relevant since it requires a lot of work and a story segment for my game’s structure. There will be abilities and items that may let you gain the traits of dragons though. As for specializations each class will have two possible ascensions they choose between. I don’t want to spoil too much about them, but I think I detailed them in previous posts.

Thanks for your compliments and I’m really happy you’re enjoying it!

Progress Update

Since the thread got bumped again I’ll give a quick update for you guys. I’ve been working primarily on combat lately and have it almost finished, but work on this is still going very slowly. I may have chewed off a bit much with my plans for it which has definitely slowed things down. Not to mention I recently got a new job so it has been even crazier than before. I’d like to say something about the turtle beating the hare, but at this point I’m going even slower than the turtle, sorry for that.

I’m really excited to get combat out to you guys though, that will definitely be the next update.

As always, thanks for playing and I hope you enjoy.

@Locke When you choose your class, do u have to use that classes weapon or can you equip different weapons. Also if you can only use that classes weapons, does that class have different styles of weapons, like the tank (sorry can not remember class name) having a mace/axe instead of a sword?

How it going Locke

[kingzug]

Oh something that would be neat is if we don’t search for a way out of the game and have a powerful guild of some sort someone who was working on it request aid from you and your guild to escape the game via fighting or resources

So far I found this pretty interesting. I think I will keep an eye on this.

I love the log horizon vibe of it!
