removedBefore you jump in though, take note that I made it a beta branch for multiple reasons: 1) There is unfinished content in this patch, and rituals has been disabled for now. 2) There are multiple bugs that still need repairing. 3) Your save is not necessarily safe in this beta branch and could become corrupted. 4) v0.5.0 Save slots are not compatible and right now the beta uses the current save slots of your active branch, meaning you'll have to delete a save or use an unused slot.
addedSo much has changed, I won't be posting a full patch notes here, but a quick spark notes: - Two new sections of gameplay: Scholarism and Druidry - Tons of new mechanics. New spell weights, new artifact weights, new research system. - Lots of upgrade, spells, artifact, and alchemy tweaks to account for the new systems. - And so much more!
changedFor those waiting for a more polished version to come out, stay tuned! I've got lots of work to do over here, but its full release is nearing completion.
changedPS. To opt into a beta, right click on Orb of Creation in your library, click properties, beta tab, opt in and select the beta. If you don't see a "beta" tab, restart steam and try again.
