addedWe're excited to announce that a new Unstable testing build is now live! This update rolls out our new Critical Choices feature in full force along with a new approach to rest stops and hunger.
changedSay goodbye to micromanaging hunger and stopping twice a day to eat/rest. We’ve scrapped hunger/starvation effects and having to manually feed your heroes. Any food shortages on the road will now be handled directly through the story instead of as a separate mechanic.
addedIn our new system, each party will instead be presented with a midday choice using our new Critical Decision feature. The options:
addedThat's right, heroes can now embark on fun little mini adventures during their daily rest stop, including gambling at an Undermarket pavilion, attending exotic food and drink samplings to acquire new menu items for your tavern, assisting dwarven miners with a dangerous haul, drawing a mysterious (and potentially disastrous) card from Oracle Ophelia's Deck of Mixed Blessings, or scoring your heroes some unique gear at one of three new merchants with rotating inventories: Weaponcrafter Emeric Ironfist, Armor merchant Gendrya Stormforged, and Accessory merchant Elara Silverleaf.
changedThese changes were made based on the valuable feedback provided to us by players on our Discord server. Feel free to stop on by and join in the conversation: https://discord.com/invite/epictavern
