Progress Update Vol.5：Dual Playstyle Modes & Full Experience Rework

Dear players,

Since last week, some of you may have noticed:

We are no longer releasing large numbers of small daily patches like before.

This is because our current development focus has shifted toward a full gameplay experience rework.

That means:

We are now rebuilding entire systems instead of only fixing isolated small issues.

As a result, future updates will continue following the current structure:

Weekly Progress Updates.

At this point, the overall reconstruction plan is now approximately halfway completed.

This update mainly focuses on:

• Dual playstyle modes

• Quest guidance systems

• UI and information presentation

• Combat and progression systems

Modern RPG Style / Classic RPG Style Now Available

We have officially added two different gameplay styles.

Modern RPG Style

This mode focuses more on:

• Strong guidance

• Higher readability

• Smoother progression flow

The following features are now implemented:

Quest Tracking

Players can now actively select quests to track inside the quest log.

Simply follow the directional indicators to complete objectives.

Real-Time HUD Guidance

Tracked quests now display real-time directional arrows directly on the HUD.

Target Highlighting

Quest-related NPCs now feature clear highlight effects, making progression much easier to follow.

Classic RPG Style

This mode focuses more on:

• Self-driven exploration

• Reading and deduction

• Traditional immersive RPG gameplay

We will continue expanding the gameplay differences between these two styles moving forward.

Quest Log & Information Presentation Rework

Quest Log Improvements

We extensively rewrote and polished the quest log system.

Including:

• More visible color highlights for character names and locations

• Improved readability for quest objectives

• Better information hierarchy inside logs

Chapter Gameplay / Local Intelligence System

We also added a new guidance interface.

Players can now use visual and text-based explanations to better understand:

• What activities are available in the current chapter

• What gameplay systems exist in the current area

• What major objectives are currently important

Combat & Progression System Updates

Sandbox Battle Character Card Rework

Character General Cards in Sandbox Battles are now directly linked to character Power.

The stronger the character becomes:

• The higher the quality of their corresponding General Cards

Combat Balance Adjustments

• Slightly reduced the strength of bounty elites

• Increased Liu Bei’s damage output by approximately 10%

Progression & Card Improvements

UI & Asset Upgrades

• Continued improving animation presentation issues

• Continued refining unreasonable scene presentation elements

• Continued improving synchronization between audio and character actions

Bug Fixes

• Fixed an issue where switching protagonist troop types could incorrectly generate extra cards

• Fixed issues where some searchable containers were not properly highlighted

• Fixed an issue where player General Skills could incorrectly affect themselves

• Adjusted the relationship between Gold and Wealth values

• Fixed several additional minor issues

Next Reconstruction Phase

At this stage:

• Equipment system rework

• Power system rework

• Dual-mode gameplay foundation

have all been largely completed.

Next, we will continue moving toward:

Full UI & Feedback Layer Upgrades

Minimap Rework

The minimap will be rebuilt using:

“Satellite-style maps + real-time markers”

for a much clearer navigation experience.

Dungeon Consecutive Battle Rework

Dungeon gameplay will become:

• More challenging

• More progression-focused

• More rewarding for building and equipping armies

Continuing UI Reconstruction

Including:

More Effects & Animation Improvements

We will continue strengthening:

• Combat feedback

• Progression feedback

• Impact and hit feel

• Overall gameplay responsiveness

The overall reconstruction process is still progressing according to plan.
