What is left to do before final launch?
The game is getting close to the final version, but there are still many things that must be completed and improved:
Some areas have issues with the "camera follow" script. This is mostly solved but more testing and adjustments are required. In most areas the camera movement is working well.
Side-quests and additional areas
Follower quests
Better power/magic management (player choices)
Improvements to details in certain areas
More intractable NPC's
Better light settings in some areas
Save/load multiple characters and area progress in all areas (most areas now has progress saving but not all)
Improvements to character stats and character level (currently only automatically)
Bug fixes, i.e. item cool-down in some areas/instances.
When will the game leave Early Access?
Soon! April or Mai...
