Well, it's been another 3 months of hard work with a mega 2.0 update that's much more substantial than initially planned.
It introduces, of course, the new class of the Atlantean Centurio, which required an enormous amount of work, but also many other equally important elements such as:
A Complete overhaul of the Save System, allowing you to create new games from scratch in-game seamlessly through an immersive world menu, plus the long-awaited SteamCloud compatibility!
The Divine Serments system: challenges to choose from in a new game for all veterans seeking a challenge
A complete overhaul of the combat interface: Drag-and-drop spell bar Customizable, remappable shortcuts, smart status bar, and meticulous polish
Overall Upgrade of the Game Visuals: Monster Sprites / Battle Backgrounds / Menu Backgrounds, Class Backgrounds, etc.
The Playlist System allowing you to change the musical atmosphere at will, linked to the Panorama system
26 new OSTs for these new playlists composed by Alkakrab
Complete Overhaul of the Tarot Cards into Pandemonium
And tons of other things noted in the official patch notes on discord (which I'll also have on Steam as usual) including 8 new legendary and heirloom equipment, new ultimate rarity skins with 12 unique animations included in each, the new Crusade of course, tons of QoL improvements, balance changes, new monsters, and bug fixes.
And as you can see, the Roadmap update accordingly, with the English translation officially announced for version 2.5, which is in about 5 months depending on real life and availability.
Thank you all for playing Alquiem and I'm really looking forward to seeing our international friends take over the game in turn. Seeing them have fun!
