10:10 update will be coming out right after

10:14 of the things that will be in there is
10:16 some of the new homes that we've been
10:18 working on that we're going to show
10:20 later here in live stream the hollow
10:23 walk home log cabin if you want to
10:26 channel your inner Abraham Lincoln will
10:28 have your own blog cabin to do so we've
10:31 been showing off the new city we haven't
10:34 unknown to city in a very long time and
10:36 Richard really wanted to have the hidden
10:39 city of you it'll actually literally
10:42 have clouds that obscure it except on
10:46 moonless nights on the overworld it's
10:49 really cool but I've already seen the
10:51 tech working it's very very cool and
10:54 we're going to be showing that on the
10:56 telethon on Monday
10:58 and you'll see screenshots in the weekly
11:01 update we showed it right before the
11:04 break it's gorgeous
11:06 sorceress steve has been doing magic and
11:09 sorcery yeah sort soul sorry even we
11:14 want burning though cuz we need him to
11:17 keep even though he's a witch and we've
11:22 been cranking out the telethon item so
11:24 more icy stuff so we'll be showing off
11:26 those the ice crown and ice wand
11:29 actually Fletcher pulled that in at the
11:31 last minute so we're going to be showing
11:32 that all too and well we've already been
11:35 talking about the telethon so be sure to
11:37 tune in at 3 o'clock central time on
11:40 Monday all sorts of fun stuff happening
11:43 mayor the new free trial is continuing
11:46 we're actually going to be making even
11:47 more changes to that we we had a big
11:51 meeting yesterday where we talked about
11:53 the new user experience including some
11:56 of the free trial and some polishes and
11:58 things we want to do with that so we
12:01 want to teach people and people work
12:02 things even some basic things like you
12:05 know hold down right mouse button to
12:06 turn the camera you'd be surprised at
12:09 how many people don't get that when they
12:12 start the game and end up quitting and
12:16 things about skills when you go first go
12:19 to a trainer so we're gonna be teaching
12:20 a lot more things in the beginning of
12:22 the game additionally one of the things
12:25 we have been doing with the free trial
12:26 is confining pretrial users to one
12:29 single path but now we're gonna give
12:31 pretrial users the option to pick any
12:33 path he'll still be confined to a single
12:36 path however they'll get to pick any
12:39 path because one of the things we
12:40 realized is we want even pretrial users
12:44 to understand that the game is about
12:45 being able to make choices even at the
12:48 beginning and we still are looking for
12:51 an office admin / executive assistant we
12:54 have actually had a lot of applications
12:56 or reviewing those now but the job is
13:00 still open if you're interested and as
13:02 Matthew mentioned next Friday is our
13:04 party that our amazing community is
13:07 throwing for us since we don't want to
13:09 be spending money on that so we're
13:11 excited about that and then I've been
13:14 working hard almost every day on South
13:17 by Southwest because that's when we will
13:20 be launching so that's where our kind of
13:24 launch event and so we're gonna have a
13:25 booth at the South by Southwest gaming
13:27 expo and that is you know March 15th
13:31 through the 17th and it's gonna be open
13:34 noon to 8:00 p.m. wristbands if you buy
13:38 them in advance it's open to the public
13:39 so anybody can come wristbands if you
13:42 buy on in advance or only 39 bucks and
13:44 that gets you all three days if you buy
13:46 just a single day I think it's only like
13:49 this is a little like less than 20
13:51 dollars yeah that's a really good deal
13:52 yeah and we'll have a booth there it's a
13:55 10 by 30 booth we'll have multiple
13:57 stations we'll be doing interviews and
14:00 showing off the game we also have
14:02 multiple sessions we'll be doing so it's
14:06 pretty exciting we're very excited about
14:07 what's having dirty side by Southwest
14:09 and of course mostly what we're doing
14:11 right now is working on release 50 which
14:14 is one of three releases leading up to
14:17 launch ah you know it's so very very
14:21 exciting and have really nice number to

14:26 planned that we totally planned to have
14:28 an even number as the first of the 2018
14:32 that was planned for the very beginning
14:34 totally
14:36 okay so release 50 is chock-full of
14:40 amazing stuff so Beezus and wizard smoke

14:58 really just refining is going to get
15:00 better so I know people are going to get
15:03 excited by that

15:06 wild boars are gonna have this awesome
15:07 charge attack where they're gonna be
15:10 able to charge into a group of players
15:12 and knock them down it does not sound
15:15 boring whatsoever there knows every
15:17 stand up it's it's really getting boring
15:20 that because every stand up they've been
15:23 using the boring joke I'm really getting

16:50 that's right next to the rift you know
16:57 where the big column ripped through land
16:59 so it's it's all like smokey and blasted
17:01 and oh and by the way crisp allied you

17:34 fighting a lot of wolves in the game and
17:36 with you luckily wolves sucks okay so
17:38 also a lot of new sound effects so right
17:42 now there's like we don't really have
17:44 any sound effects for any of the blood
17:45 and skills so we're getting sound
17:47 effects for the Blunden skills a bunch
17:49 of the depth skills are missing sound
17:50 effects so they're getting sound effects
17:52 almost none the taming skills have sound
17:54 effects so those are getting sound

17:57 love for the sound effects side Oh
18:00 female peasants those were also
18:03 purchased assets and there are also some

19:33 Viking style crafting pavilion also the
19:36 hollow log house were to show you that
19:37 later Oh a bunch of oh so we go on
19:40 through every single quest in the game
19:43 all the tasks in the game and hooked him
19:46 up to the new boat the quest the item
19:49 highlighting and the task highlighting
19:54 feature and the sparkles and all that
19:56 stuff so that should be working
19:57 throughout the game along with those of
20:00 you prefer to play old school you'll now
20:01 have an option to turn a little bat off
20:03 if you want in addition we've made it
20:07 now that quest locations and points of
20:12 interest will now appear on the maps so
20:15 when you bring up your map you'll be
20:17 able to see where quest NPCs and points
20:20 of interests are on the map
20:22 automatically so as you find things are
20:24 told where to go on a quest that'll
20:26 automatically now pop up dynamically on
20:28 your map saving you time yeah and then a
20:32 ton of polish for the new user
20:34 experience just again like I was
20:36 mentioning earlier teaching you stuff
20:38 fixing a bunch of bugs so that's that's
20:43 uh oh and then finally and we'll talk
20:45 more about this on Monday during the
20:47 combat deep dive but we did a huge huge
20:50 deep dive right before the break on
20:53 where our combat map is where
20:56 resistances are where where the damage
20:59 is done that's that and found out what
21:05 found out a lot of issues with that and
21:07 so we were making a big big big upgrade
21:11 pass through
21:12 all the combat maps so it should be much
21:14 much much much much more balanced much
21:16 much easier to balance and that's going
21:19 to be going live and r50 and again we'll
21:21 be talking about that more in detail
21:22 exactly what that means in the deep dive
21:26 in combat so and and that's that's just
21:29 a high-level summary of what's going in

28:30 you drive logic okay so we're gonna show
28:35 you guys three houses today so he drives
28:39 around so what what happened was Seawolf
28:45 was working on one of the long haul
28:49 wetlands and as part of that he using a
28:56 bunch of various assets that we had this
28:58 hollow log that he scaled up really big
29:02 and then fuck him like a window piece in
29:07 like a little porch and things like that
29:09 and we had a but we had some players who
29:12 were in that scene who gave us a
29:15 feedback of like oh my god you should
29:16 totally turn this into a player home and
29:18 you know this was a few releases ago and
29:21 we kind of we thought we heard we we got
29:23 the feedback we liked that
29:25 that's kind of cool idea and then and
29:27 finally this release we were able to
29:29 circle back and actually start working
29:32 on this and Bob and then read basically
29:38 have been working on that and so that's
29:40 that's what we're looking at today and
29:42 so that the first house we're looking at
29:44 is is that one which is yeah yes we'd
29:53 and so so you know the first one is a
30:07 this this one we're looking at right now
30:09 is gonna be a craftable in-game house
30:11 these are actually two of my favorite
30:13 houses so far in the game out of all of
30:15 them just because they're so fantastical
30:17 and different so basically like a star
30:22 mansion this is something that see wolf
30:24 gobbled up herself long-haul wetlands
30:25 it's a witch's Hut Pio I there and
30:28 people liked it so much and we like this
30:31 so much they wanted to make it a house
30:32 and this is the craft wall and it's
30:34 pretty small but still very cool nice
30:37 and cozy yeah
30:39 so you come in and walk careful with
30:40 that flame there you do and what is
30:44 different about this from the witch's
30:45 Hut is I added some wooden paneling here
30:47 so just uh just to give players some
30:50 extra deco space because with these
30:52 round surfaces there wouldn't be much
30:53 otherwise oh yeah these walls will be
30:58 deck Obul these walls will be deco bolt
31:00 as well as these in the front I did some
31:04 nice windows and kept kept the holes and
31:07 stuff because we wanted to keep the
31:08 whole hollow log feel and not make it
31:09 too renovated so to speak and this one
31:15 we're actually you're actually going to
31:17 have to go on a quest to get the recipe
31:21 to build this and that'll be at least 51
31:26 and Sanyo Keith Quinn is actually going
31:30 to build build the quest and yes this
31:34 fits on a village lot yeah these are
31:36 both both these whole log houses will be
31:39 yeah and so when we were and so we built
31:42 this one and then we got super excited
31:44 we're like hey you we can we can make it
31:46 more so we got the idea of hey let's
31:50 take another hollow log and align
31:54 vertically and make a basically a
31:57 two-story version with a tower and so
32:01 that's what this other one is this one
32:03 was actually working on mostly by Bob
32:05 here and Michael Hudson hutch aka our
32:08 art director and this one has a more
32:12 finished finished feel and walk around
32:17 so yeah this can get a full view of it
32:19 there's a back porch on this one as well
32:21 which the Capital One does not have but
32:23 it you got a full view from the house
32:30 now this this is larger two-story more
32:34 finished one is the one is the version
32:36 that will sell the store but again we're
32:38 like we always do we try to have you
32:41 know store versions and craftable
32:44 versions as well what I really like
32:46 about this one is it's kind of one and a
32:48 half story which gives you a lot of
32:50 extra deco space because you can come up
32:52 this little lock area and you know do
32:55 whatever you want with this and you have
32:56 the space underneath it as well all kind
33:00 of in one story but also in this house
33:04 you have a second story which is this
33:08 little room yeah this is the this is the
33:12 this is the other hollow log the tower
33:16 yeah oh yeah yeah and Maybelline
33:19 we definitely have been singing the Ren
33:21 Stimpy song it's long it's long it's
33:23 baby that's what we're seeing that this
33:25 morning yeah actually another cool
33:30 feature of this house is it actually has
33:32 a roof access inside at the top of the
33:35 vertical log which i think is really
33:38 awesome yeah yeah so you can get up to
33:41 the roof of the tower the other hollow
33:45 log that's not stuck in there and this
33:49 is the version that's in the store
33:51 and yes Ledbetter it'll be also on
33:53 Cranmer chasm so going forward now that
33:56 we've got crown merchants in the game
34:00 selling basically everything as we add
34:02 things in the game as we add things to
34:06 the store they'll also appear in the
34:08 crown merchants now they might not
34:09 appear on the crown merchants
34:11 immediately but it might that might lag
34:15 behind like one release or so but they
34:17 will eventually get on multiple yeah so
34:22 yeah I'm really happy with how these
34:24 turned out and again pull that you know
34:29 players saw an asset in a map said they
34:32 liked it and then we respond to the
34:34 feedback and so again so we have two
34:38 versions we have this the single story
34:40 one that'll be craftable in-game you'll
34:44 get the recipe from a quest that's this
34:47 one that reads looking at and then the
34:49 two story version the kind of bigger
34:51 more finished out version with the tower
34:53 that'll be sold on the store and I guess
34:57 I had two of my favorite houses we've
34:59 done so far yeah they're very you know
35:01 they feel very very magical very fun
35:08 houses and then the last one we're gonna
35:11 look at is the one yeah and do you
35:21 choose a time of day to that game but
35:26 this is the log cabin player have we met
35:31 oh look we made a lot of jokes about
35:33 Lincoln oh yeah all all these are
35:38 village size every house you're looking
35:39 at is built and so this was actually
35:45 also a player suggestion so players
35:47 asked for a log cabin style house and so
35:52 we so this was the same kind of I so
35:57 this is you know the idea you go out to
36:00 the frontier chop down a bunch of trees
36:03 if all the branches off the log cabin
36:07 and this one is also craftable so so two
36:13 out of the three houses we're showing
36:15 you today are craftable maybe a little
36:17 brighter on this court here about these
36:25 homes eventually make it in their
36:27 hometown no it's just there's something
36:40 something is blocking getting on so this
36:49 has a big you know this has kind of got
36:50 the same layout as the biking house so
36:53 it's got a big open layout you know open
36:56 plan on the on the bottom floor and then
36:59 it's got a law a second-story loft
37:01 opening now these are both still in
37:05 progress so but then there's a little
37:07 balcony out front we can't get down to
37:09 that right now
37:11 why yeah I got a bunch of last-minute
37:16 changes today yeah it's got a little
37:21 balcony out front so also really super
37:27 happy about about how this one turned
37:29 out to Bob really really did a great job
37:33 you got that really great rustic look
37:35 and it's it's inspired us to like we
37:36 want to now like this one's a pretty big
37:39 one it feels basically the whole lot
37:41 we're actually talking hunch and I were
37:44 talking about now making like one that's
37:47 a little like about half this size and
37:50 only like a single-story that's the
37:52 world like the hut and then also maybe
37:56 making a more ornate version of this
37:58 like with maybe more finished inside
38:04 like we looked at we saw some shots
38:06 inside I mean we saw some shots online
38:09 were like they have fancy log cabins
38:12 where they like they they strip off the
38:15 bark on the interior
38:17 sides and they probably kind of polish
38:19 them finished yeah and then and then
38:22 maybe like they we could do some
38:23 carvings on these outside columns or
38:26 something like that to make a more
38:27 ornate version that we put on the store
38:29 but again right now this version that
38:32 this version of the log cabin will be a
38:33 recipe and release 50
38:35 that'll be crap yeah but because we
38:42 wanted to tie the hollow log house to a
38:45 quest is probably not going to be
38:46 available perfect but this one will be
38:49 in just a regular recipe and the hollow
38:51 log houses will be are 50 well the
38:54 two-story one will but the single one
38:56 because it's going to be a quest will be
38:58 oh yeah well so can I tell you what's
39:07 coming yeah yeah okay I took my
39:12 Christmas break and by artistic
39:14 batteries have been recharged and I'm
39:17 working on Observatory a steampunk style
39:22 thing I think it's gonna be the best
39:25 house I've ever done I've just got a lot
39:29 of cool plans for it so that's coming
39:32 also there's an ornate kind of Celtic
39:36 looking bar with the also the
39:40 little show that we're actually in but I
39:44 don't think it's it I seen I saw him on

46:57 simple there is a cycle to crafting
46:59 where materials are collected and
47:01 refined then produced into Goods those
47:04 Goods can be enhanced repaired when
47:05 broken and salvaged for components when
47:08 no longer needed
47:09 the material gathering process is simple
47:11 it uses the player skill level tools and
47:13 a resource node like a tree to produce
47:16 raw materials such as wood tools are
47:20 unique to each crafting skill for
47:22 gathering tools are a pickaxe for mining
47:24 harvesting axe for forestry fishing pole
47:28 for fishing skinning knife for field
47:30 dressing and sickle for foraging the
47:33 refining process also involves the
47:35 player skills tools raw materials and a
47:38 fuel which is a general term for a
47:40 material used for refining the result is
47:43 refined materials such as timber or
47:45 wooden boards for refining the tools are
47:49 smelting tongues for smelting cubit
47:51 measure for milling loom shuttle for
47:53 textiles hoe for agriculture tanning
47:56 knife for tanning and cleaver for
47:59 butchery the production process is
48:01 similar to the refining process player
48:04 skills tools in a combination of
48:06 materials is used to create an item the
48:11 production tools are smithing hammer for
48:13 blacksmithing
48:14 carpentry hammer for carpentry tailoring
48:17 scissors for tailoring mortar and pestle
48:19 for alchemy and cooking pot for cooking
48:24 enchanting requires the player skill a
48:27 precious gem or gold ingots Mandrake
48:29 root and an item to enchant it's
48:32 successful the item gains magical
48:34 abilities for master work the process is
48:38 even simpler player skill silver ingots
48:41 and an item create a master work item
48:43 with additional abilities the process of
48:46 preparing an item requires a damaged
48:48 item in a repair kit and adds durability
48:51 back to the repaired item the salvage
48:53 process requires player skill an item
48:56 and the proper tool a salvaged item is
48:59 destroyed but may yield parts this has
49:01 been crafting complete next
49:03 episode we will cover skills and
49:05 leveling all right there you go folks
49:09 Dondre well done on that video crafting
49:12 complete episode 2 if you want to see
49:13 other episodes all of these videos are
49:16 in the list on the forums now there was
49:20 some confusion apologies it's community
49:23 for some of the overlap of these two
49:26 videos here I'm gonna swap over to let
49:31 me go back to my screen here just for a
49:32 moment to explain this so we got two
49:34 contests that recently were running one
49:36 just concluded that just announced the
49:38 winners of the creative writing contest
49:40 well done everybody there those will be
49:42 listed shortly in the forum's but there
49:43 was also this contest with the
49:45 walkthroughs and the how-tos and what we
49:47 normally do is we like to give you guys
49:49 a focused viewing list of submissions as
49:51 they come in and so those are posted in
49:54 separate forum posts all of these posts
49:57 are in the announcements section of the
49:58 forums and each contest always has two
50:02 of their own post the instructions and
50:04 the prizes and all of that that you can
50:07 respond to and ask us questions about
50:09 how the contest runs and you know
50:12 anything else and then the submissions
50:14 one where we like to keep it just to the
50:16 submissions so there was two for this
50:19 contest and two for the creative writing
50:21 contest and in the future if you ever
50:24 are one of your warriors you know how do
50:25 I submit this look for the submission
50:27 form thread it's not there then I didn't
50:32 both it we got to post it okie-doke
50:34 we've got one more video here and this
50:36 one congrats to cal adorn this is a this
50:40 is a really important one for everybody
50:41 old making tips want to know how to make
50:43 gold entrada they have attire well
50:45 here's a good start Ocala Doran has a
50:47 good two minute video here we'll fire
50:49 this up and see what he has to say
51:02 greetings and salutations this is Cal
51:05 adorned when starting out in shroud of
51:07 the avatar building a financial nest egg
51:09 is an early hurdle to overcome one of
51:12 the mistakes I made was taking all the
51:14 weapons I collected and scrapping them
51:16 now it's a great way to get your
51:18 crafting skill up it should also be said
51:20 you will want to have a good supply of
51:22 wood and metal scrap for training
51:24 someday you shouldn't though be in a
51:26 rush to become a master crafter building
51:29 that nest egg of cash is just as
51:31 important selling your found weapons can
51:34 build you a tidy profit if you go about
51:36 it in the right way now when you start
51:39 your strength will be low and the amount
51:41 that you can carry won't seem like much
51:44 but don't be disheartened in time your
51:47 increased capacity to carry from
51:49 strength gains or capacity potions will
51:51 kick in the more you can carry away from
51:54 each area the better also it helps to
51:57 pick the area carefully since the easier
51:59 it is for you the more you can collect
52:02 I myself tended to focus on fighters the
52:05 more mages are archers since they were
52:07 easy pickins for me
52:09 the faster I took them out the more I
52:12 gained you will also be building your
52:14 skill and your adventure level at the
52:16 same time I would keep going until I was
52:19 at the max that I could carry and then I
52:21 would go back to town to cash in not
52:23 every vendor is going to pay you the
52:27 same amount if you go to a magic
52:29 merchant or a deco merchant you will not
52:31 get your full value for your weapon my
52:34 mama told me you better shop around
52:36 works in shroud two blacksmiths of
52:40 course are the best but some actually
52:43 pay more than others find the one who
52:46 pays the most for you and make the trek
52:49 back and forth to him every time and it
52:51 will be worth it to your bottom line
52:53 still to this day I go to that zone fill
52:57 up on my bags with weapons and sell them
52:59 off you cannot argue with consistent
53:02 results this has been Cala Dorne
53:04 wishing you well and informed bye-bye
