Hey yall, as you probably know I've been working on awakenings and build-related stuff the past few days and I'm happy to say that they're almost done. I also added build-based charging effects that can blend together if you're a hybrid build.

As for release, stuff is still looking good to release in February, and even though it won't have as much on release as I wanted, I'm confident it'll be good enough, as my only goal is that people can play and get a sense of what the game is focusing on and appreciate what's there and realize that the game will be improving over time. 

As for the stuff cut back from release, potions won't make it in at all, and there will probably only be 1 rare weapon, rare technique, and rare spell to find as opposed to 3+ like I originally wanted. I also wanted to include a new sea monster, and a new way to hunt sea monsters using your ship, but that will probably have to wait until the first update. I'll be making a rough roadmap for updates soon, and I'll probably post it on here when it's done. (It won't be set in stone though since I want votes to determine the order major things will be added in such as clan building or professions)

Luckily I don't think that stuff that was cut out would matter all that much, as long as its all included in the first update. I kinda regret not releasing the game sooner, but since I promised that awakenings would be included I was kinda forced to wait until the story finally arrived at that point. For an early access game its been delayed for far too long already and I apologize for that. Though I guess its not all that bad since if it released sooner it would've had way less, so idk, maybe it was better this way.

I'll be posting clips on here of the hybrid build effects such as imbuing magic into fighting style as soon as that's finished, so keep an eye out

Great job vetex, don't worry about the content most of us are sweats anyway and will find ways to play till you add everything. As for other players, they never knew about these features so they can't expect them

Loafed

take as much time as you need, vetex

Mortomi Cinnamonbun

I don’t mind the delays much, as right after the game releases i’m going to forget all this time i waited in the first place. As long as the vision for ao is mostly there, i’m sure i’ll enjoy it. Especially considering the story for the first sea is finished, i can’t wait to see how it all plays out!

Kortlan Jenkins

Hey man, that's 100% okay, you're putting in a ton of work and it shows with how this entire project is turning out. Thank you for putting in the time, effort, and care into this game. I hope you're doing well, stay awesome.

RaveNitro

do awakenings come with a cutscene since theyre partially story driven?

NJSovereign

Vetex, I have been playing your games since Golden Age. I'm used to waiting and sweating your games even after a hiatus. I'm practically foaming from the mouth for this game😅 so take all the time you need to finish what you feel is good enough. I was here for AA, I was here for WoM, and I'll be here for AO. You have done a tremendous job and I am filled with excitement for release!!👍🏾

RaveNitro

you never fail to amaze everyone, you know that? keep up the good work :frhappy:

Out of curiousity Vetex, is the Conjurer Awakening listed in the trello (Conjurer's Focus) considered a Weapon Aura as well, or is it only to Warriors and Knights?

Ruin

Appreciate the constant hard work to stick to your word with deadlines. Real dedication 🤝

aidanvoidout

Zapto

Gamma

Thexirnius

TNMB

Yo vetex, don't sweat the whole not releasing early access earlier. It's your game, and even though im sure a lot of us would've been happy either way, you know when your game is ready, and im sure that's the game me and all of the other fans are so excited to finally play.

Christian Crosby

Do you plan to add a Breath Attack animation or a Lost Spell for it?

Zapto

what do you mean by that? aren't all awakenings coming out on release, that is why vetex delayed the game is it not?

yoshikage kira

Video of the effects would be highly appreciated

deli

Checkers

Excited to see the imbuing, espically on fighting styles! Been waiting for this

Noah Murphy

I've waited years for a proper AA sequel, I can wait a little longer. WoM had a lot of things I like, but it didn't have the same charm as AA.

Pr0fess10na1M3m3

Yo, how much of the story do you think is gonna be on release?

Russ K

Dude I want this game to be out but if you need/want to add something and it will take longer I don’t mind, take how ever much you need I’ll play the piss out this game even if not everything is added

mael

sick

Arbarwrath

Take your time. Perfection takes time

Christian Crosby

Vetex! Would you consider adding a "Requip Magic" gamepass for weapon builds that hides weapons they have equiped until they wield them?

TheZestfall 1st

While small that would actually grant an advantage to the people who buy it, it obfuscates some pretty important info. For the same reason I think that builds should only be usable out of combat.

Revoria

u could say the same for magic users lol u dont know hwat magic they use until they cast.. it does absolutely nothing if u dont know if thye using weapons or not cuz as soon as they equip or use a skill its hard to not see that they're using weapons

Revoria

builds should only be used out of combat? what does that even mean lol

Okk

Vetex for some reason I was banned from your discord for replying too your message can I get unbanned bryancraston#9296

Maple

its better to just dm him here or reply on twitter somewhere

Joser

So the only things left to do are, 1 rare technique/weapon/spell, all awakenings, tutorial, and the final little touch ups like the boss items being turned into 200 gold? good shit so far my guy can't wait to play this in 1-2 weeks

CYBER N1N
