Legio Primus, interesting name for the boss****, is it just the 1 name for the boss? With them "experimenting on local people" it made me wonder if there'll just be the 1 type of boss.

Could always do fellstalks and calquats, cheap yet decent xp.
Hi phoenix, interesting bts. They didn't seem too relaxed whilst speaking but the information given was good, at least enough to prepare for it but not enough to know what to expect when we get there.

Hey Manks ,

What you mean by "they didn't seem to relax"? Well, it's "just" a behind the scenes sneak peek so with that said the intention isn't to tell you everything just yet. Did anything spark your interest?

Just the way they spoke/held them selves whilst speaking. Seemed rigid and fixed, not relaxed how some Jmods are when speaking on the BTS videos.

I like the idea of the lore behind it, because it seems to reflect certain acts in real life.
(Misguided extremist acts in the name of a religion) Looking forward to reading the books.


The combat mechanics, at least for now, look challenging. Hopefully it gives slayer a helping hand.

Thanks for the feedback. I guess not everyone is a rock star... like us ;) Nonetheless we are trying to bring you news from those who are behind the projects. I think guys did fine... perhaps they feared what would you say on the HLF :P

I'm with you, the story really sets the scene and makes it all more interesting.

I'm curious what you'll say once you gave it a try.

It's nice to see the people behind the code :)
I can't act for toffee/give a decent speech + I avoid cameras, they did a really good job all thins considered :D




There is one thing im disappointing in, from a recent update.

The lore/story from "The Godless"'s part of the book from Emissaries.
Whilst im excited that it did mention Kara, it wasn't written by T.S.Church, and he had no idea of it being wrote when I spoke to him.
Im sure his input could have made it better/more in line with the books.

I don't think what the hlf will say should matter too much lol, as most of us tend to point out what's wrong rather than what's right with content.

Mod Doctor posted here yesterday, answering whether the dungeon will be exclusively for those who have a slayer assignment or not, and next thing you know the thread had 2 pages of posts saying that he made a bad decision. Mod Jack came in the thread after that, giving us some more info and people luckily calmed down a little.

I believe Doctor is new and this is the first project he's worked on in this game. Being told that he did it wrong wasn't that nice. I actually felt bad reading those comments because his intention was to make the content as accessible as possible. I wouldn't be surprised if he doesn't feel comfortable about posting here in the future.

Now regarding the video, I think the only wrong thing about it is the amount of information provided. Without having read the June bts first, a player is told a lot in a little time and gets overwhelmed. It's not necessarily the video to blame though, it's more the fact that the video was released the month before the bts article and the actual content comes out.

Also to add here, I don't think the video matters too much, it's the actual content that will and we'll see how that is once it comes out.
Hi
