Release 24

November 19, 2015

 * Polish and Performance: We will work to improve overall polish and performance in the game. We will focus not only on improving frame rate, but also lowering load times. We may also spend some time on usability issues. This will be the main focus of Release 24 so content delivery will be smaller than a “normal release”.
 * Story: The story continues to expand with the control point of Hilt and the dungeons beneath that contain the only known forge capable of forging with Obsidian. Additionally, a handful of new towns will appear beyond the Perennial Coast that include story quests.
 * Localization: We will begin crowdsourcing the translation of the game into various languages.
 * Weather: More types of weather will come online, like snow. Weather will also be linked to seasonal changes, vary based on location (it won’t snow in the desert generally), though it will have some randomness.
 * Earlier Delivery Date: Due to the US Thanksgiving holiday, R24 will be coming out one week earlier than normal releases.
