Savage Lands changes
Greetings Savage Landers! Last Bastion Studios is pleased to announce the release of our latest Game Update (Build 30). Over the last month we've spent a lot of time rebalancing the later areas of the game to create a much more rich and unique experience. This work will tie into additional content plans we have for the future, so it was imperative we got these foundational changes out of the way. There is still much work to do, but thanks to our dedicated community of players we have managed to reshape/balance/tune the game at an accelerated pace. We look forward to building a better game for all players! As always, Stay Savage! -Last Bastion Studios
IMPORTANT: World Update
Due to the vast number of changes to the terrain and objects across all the islands done in Build 24, we are recommending existing players returning to the game from prior releases create new worlds. Because of all these changes, we cannot guarantee the integrity of your world saves prior to this update. Existing characters are fine to use. If you are new to the game, this does not apply.
IMPORTANT: Video Settings Update
FOR THIS BUILD we do recommend EXISTING players take the following steps to refresh their video settings: Go into Options Click Settings Click Default Click Apply Once this is done please adjust the options as you see fit. This will clean out any residual data from previous builds. We do apologize for the inconvenience.
