3 Days Until Act IV Release: Project Plans

changedThat said, on January 31 I will not press the button to leave Early Access. As usual, for the first 2- 3 weeks I will be collecting your feedback and comments. No matter how thoroughly I test the game on my own, typos, bugs, and logical inconsistencies always come up. So if you do not want to become an unwitting beta tester, it is better to jump into the game around February 15. But if you do want to help hunt for issues, you are welcome to take the throne on January 31.
addedAbout translations. For each language there is a translator and a separate proofreading stage, but this process progresses very unevenly across languages. Proofreading is still ongoing, especially for Korean, as it was added last. If you play in English or Russian, there is a high chance that by January 31 everything will already be fine in terms of text. For other languages, fixes will definitely continue to be made.
changedThe same applies to voiceovers. In the Russian and English versions there are two options: professional voice acting and machine-generated voiceover. The machine version has been ready for a long time, while the human voice acting may be delayed for some individual quests.
changedI still have several unfulfilled promises, namely optimization for Steam Deck and translations into Chinese and Japanese. All of this will be done. My top priority will be Steam Deck support. And finally: the game is currently available with a 25% discount, which will last until February 2. The next discount period will be in March.
