61s	that's coming up in chapter two yeah
63s	let's talk about it
65s	Segway yeah it's perfect yeah this is
68s	great we're playing it fast and loose
70s	today baby let's go all right we're
71s	switching over here
73s	um so yeah this is uh in-game footage of
76s	chapter two donning a brand new armor
79s	set uh this is why I got mixed up
80s	because this is actually an armor set
82s	that uh was uh it doesn't seem to be I
84s	don't think it's 100 pork but it's
86s	definitely inspired by an armor set from
88s	Age Of Conan our Legacy MMO yeah nothing
92s	we ever do is actually 100 Port uh you
95s	know Age Of Conan has a lot
97s	uh older engine at this point and there
99s	are different requirements for things
100s	that go into that game so when we want
102s	to bring something over we really have
104s	to remake it um using the base as a
106s	template
107s	um so yeah this was uh in the age of
110s	Conan Onslaught event this was the thug
111s	Ro Katan armor and in the second age in
116s	or sorry in in the age of sorcery in in
118s	Conan Exiles it'll be the uh
121s	I believe it's the Mad God Armor double
124s	check the name yep the Helm of the Mad
126s	Prophet that's what it is sorry and also
128s	let me go ahead and make it daytime so
130s	we can actually see stuff yeah it's very
131s	dark suddenly
132s	and so this is one of the rewards you
134s	get for the new
137s	story event that's right with the next
139s	chapter yeah so
141s	um like I said before whenever we kicked
143s	off the age of sorcery we want to start
144s	to make each of our chapters more about
146s	a story going forward so you guys have
147s	some new stuff to follow along you know
150s	um we we aim to actually change things
152s	in the world as the story goes along as
154s	well so I think that in the first stage
156s	you'll see that to a much lesser extent
158s	but as we go further and deeper and
160s	learn more what we can we're capable of
161s	with our timeline and everything you'll
163s	start to see more stuff change in the
165s	game itself
166s	so thrown back to season or uh chapter
169s	one excuse me and in chapter one we had
171s	a new sorcerer appear in the exiled
173s	lands and he started to spread the
175s	knowledge of how to perform sorcery uh
178s	to his own followers who then took it
181s	out into the world and you know you can
183s	now find Sorcerers in all the different
184s	camps find
185s	um teaching the people that hey there is
189s	this magic you should follow us follow
191s	our leader so
193s	now some of you might know there are
196s	some other sorcerers in the world if
198s	you're keen on the story you might
199s	remember met commosis
201s	met commercials was previously a leader
204s	among the black ring which is uh
207s	instigio one of the most powerful cabals
210s	of sorcerers that that exist
213s	Amon wanted to join this cabal and met
217s	tomosis essentially
219s	afraid of his power
222s	banished him from the black ring said he
224s	can't join
226s	tosamon disappeared
228s	and
229s	somewhere in the world he found the
231s	serpent ring of set which is now a
233s	really big part of the power that he
236s	holds he was already a powerful sorcerer
238s	now he comes back and he has this
240s	powerful artifact
241s	he gets rid of mechanosis he says you're
243s	banished to the exiled lens
246s	come again you know we'll see you later
248s	buddy uh so now
250s	met kimosus sees the magic being
252s	performed and he was once a very
254s	powerful sorcerer he was known for
256s	summoning just gargantuan demons into
259s	the world
260s	and forcing them to do his bidding so
263s	now he wants a taste of that power and
265s	in the second chapter
267s	we'll have you hunting the heads of
269s	sorcerers bringing them back to his
272s	followers who are these kitan exiled
274s	assassins essentially
277s	um and you'll you'll be bringing heads
279s	and bodies back
280s	uh so he can like try to examine like
282s	just what makes them tick because like
284s	yeah precisely yeah like he had that
286s	power and now he doesn't have it because
287s	like the form of sorcery that's in the
289s	exact lens is not for whatever reason he
292s	can't harness that same power despite
294s	him being able to use before he ended up
296s	here yeah traditionally in the exiled
298s	Lance magic is suppressed by the giant
300s	king bracer
302s	um for some reason unbeknownst to us
305s	others are able to perform sorcery now
307s	he would like to be among those people
308s	that can perform sorcery and he'd like
310s	to get out of here so uh yeah to that
313s	end he has these followers
315s	in the world now who you can come up
318s	with speak with and they'll tell you a
320s	bit of the story behind it they'll maybe
323s	uh you know give you give you some
325s	rewards for what you do in the world and
328s	you can spend those here
330s	yeah so they're
331s	um so with the update there will be I
333s	think multiple head hunting camps I
336s	believe right that's right okay actually
337s	I don't remember the exact number off
339s	the top of my head but in both Exile
341s	lands in SEPTA there will be multiple
343s	camps that are similar to this one that
345s	you can find uh that just houses Katan
348s	exileds there's can't there's cages to
350s	return living Sorcerers that you knock
352s	out and bring back and there's an altar
356s	here that you can place the heads upon
357s	so once you kill them you'll take their
359s	skull put it on the Altar and they'll
360s	give you a you know a bit of a reward
362s	back for that
366s	so yes uh you have so you'll be tasked
368s	with uh bringing back social sorceress
371s	goals or unconscious bodies yep and Dead
375s	or Alive exactly and the bodies are
376s	worth more than the skulls so you can
378s	bring back a lot of skulls really easy
380s	if you bring back a body
382s	a bigger reward and then beyond that
384s	we've got an integration into the new
386s	event uh or sorry I'm trying to Rebrand
389s	these as encounters so it's a little
391s	less confusing but there are new
392s	Encounters in the world
394s	um
395s	that is that's called Witch Hunt and
397s	they basically have a very powerful
400s	sorcerer in the center of them who are
402s	typically surrounded by uh you know a
405s	themed magical barrier so we have one
408s	that's surrounded by these really cool
409s	Briars and whenever you destroy the
413s	Briars they you know they kind of recede
414s	and peel back into the ground and have
416s	these really creepy creaky wood noises
419s	um but anyway you kill one of those guys
420s	you get their skull it's the skull of a
423s	powerful Magi you bring it back and it's
424s	worth the most uh because it is the
427s	least available
428s	of any of the things and is coming from
430s	a very powerful sorcerer
433s	whenever you turn those things in you'll
435s	get a new currency that we've added and
437s	this currency is going to be reused
439s	throughout several chapters anytime we
441s	do a new chapter update we're going to
443s	wipe any of the currency that you have
444s	and restart from scratch in terms of the
448s	rewards that you have so you can buy
449s	things from the new vendors
451s	um so the the currency is called ancient
453s	obelisk
455s	and whenever you turn in skulls or
457s	bodies here you'll get some of that
458s	ancient Obelisk then you can come speak
460s	to the vendors and you can buy certain
463s	things from them for that ancient
464s	Obelisk so this guy is currently selling
467s	a weapon
471s	no and then so uh this currency the
473s	ancient Obelisk is entirely separate
475s	from chrome coins this is an in like
477s	purely in-game
478s	like yeah it's not a paid currency yes
480s	yes so it's only you only get ancient
482s	obelis by turning in heads uh or bodies
486s	of sorcerers and uh yeah it's like a
488s	season specific yeah kind of thing right
489s	yeah this time around it comes from this
491s	activity so
492s	um really we're going to be making new
494s	rewards and hopefully offering you
497s	they're not crowded completely
499s	completely disconnected from Crown coins
501s	no relationship they're called ancient
502s	Obelisk yes and
505s	[Music]
505s	um
507s	each each chapter when we do an update
509s	we'll get rid of all of them and we'll
511s	give you a new activity that lets you
513s	earn them in a different way to get some
514s	new rewards yeah ancient oblets
515s	specifically yes at the end of each
518s	chapter you said they will yeah ancient
520s	Obelisk will be reset
522s	uh and then whatever like new thing you
524s	do will earn you more so like yeah again
526s	decoupled from common points we're not
527s	like we're not gonna wipe the clown
529s	points or anything like that yeah so one
531s	of the things that you'll be able to buy
532s	with the ancient obelisk in this update
533s	is the Mad profit armor
537s	um we're still kind of finalizing
539s	exactly what things will cost and you
541s	know how long it will take to get every
543s	specific thing or how you know how many
544s	activities you have to do or whatever
546s	but as usual if like your server admin
548s	this isn't like
550s	um account icon items or anything these
552s	are just standard items you would unlock
553s	in the game so if you're an admin you
555s	could just spawn these you could just
556s	give yourself a bunch of obelisks
558s	whatever if you want to see it if you
560s	really wanted to yeah
561s	um or one of the my favorite use of the
563s	ancient obelisk
565s	um
566s	is to purchase thralls oh yeah you can
568s	purchase high-end uh like high-end
570s	converted thralls right yeah they will
572s	be here for named thralls uh they're
574s	just automatically converted and you get
576s	them in your inventory sweet um this is
578s	an in-development build so some of the
579s	stuff you see here like this isn't going
580s	to be the final yeah we're on what can
583s	you purchase there will be a different
584s	item there that you buy
586s	um also uh this PC doesn't have audio
589s	right on does it have audio sent to the
592s	stream yes
593s	um
596s	I don't know if I should push the button
597s	or not for how long it'll go however
599s	we're also starting to integrate more
601s	voice acting in the game as well so uh
604s	the the two catons Traders here the
607s	exiled Captain who will tell you what's
609s	happening in the world and the trader
612s	both have some uh you know really good
614s	vo tied with them uh then I was really
617s	excited to get done
619s	oh that's right yes yes you were super
622s	pumped like I got a recording session
623s	with this guy it's like oh yeah yeah
625s	well now that now that it's on teslive
627s	and I I feel like it's fine for me to
628s	talk about it but uh when we were going
630s	through looking for people that we could
632s	cast I you guys I've mentioned it before
634s	but I'm a really big Mortal Kombat fan
636s	and we got to do a voice acting session
638s	with the the person that voices Luke
640s	Kang in MK 11. uh so the Katan
643s	characters sound really cool that's rad
650s	I would play it on stream but I think
652s	the first chunks in them are very long
654s	so we were just here talking for a long
656s	period of time
659s	so we're just like looking at chat stuff
660s	right now yeah
662s	so that's what's to expect with uh so uh
665s	the head hunting like event and then the
668s	witch hunts are just kind of like
670s	they're rolled into like the whole
671s	encounter system that we added with yeah
672s	uh original age of sorcery update right
675s	yeah so all of uh we previously called
677s	them events but there's been some
678s	confusion between what an event is and
681s	what we would call like a larger event
684s	if we wanted to do like um something
685s	seasonal or something right
687s	um so in order to
689s	you know cut that confusion apart
691s	instead of calling them events I'm just
693s	calling them encounters you might hear
694s	me call them Random Encounters but this
697s	would be something like portals to yoga
698s	or snakehold Caravan those are
700s	encounters and The Witch Hunt event is
702s	something in those veins in that vein so
705s	like I said before you'll you'll show up
707s	you'll see some some monsters or or
709s	something magical protecting a very
712s	powerful sorcerer
714s	and you know defeat their defeat their
716s	minions break down their barriers and
718s	take their skull
720s	yeah right now we have on screen what we
723s	should have on screen right now is a
724s	short preview video of like what some of
726s	the uh witch hunts uh encounters look
729s	like
730s	um so they're themed based on like
733s	I guess I don't want to say elements but
735s	like yeah they're just themes so like
736s	you'll have one that's like the Demonic
738s	worshipers one that's like necromancy
739s	and one's like yeah magic each of the
743s	sorcerers in The Witch Hunt event are
745s	sort of like lieutenants to karak um if
749s	you guys remember kurak is the person
750s	that's appeared in in the Exile Lance
752s	and brought magic to everybody so these
754s	are his most powerful followers
758s	um oh and then
760s	these encounters do we uh I forget if
763s	they've changed but are they going to be
764s	like consistent additions to the game
766s	like will they remain even after like
768s	chapter two ends yeah uh so pretty much
770s	with all the events that we had unless
772s	there's something that's really
773s	contextual that doesn't make sense to
775s	carry on uh we just intend to add them
777s	to the pool of Random Encounters that
779s	can occur
780s	um so even after chapter two is gone
783s	even after the age of sorcery is gone
785s	there will still be Sorcerers in the
786s	world that you can find and and kill
789s	people love this helmet it's really cool
791s	yeah yeah we'll get a H is
796s	um will the Katan camps to like collect
799s	heads and bodies still be up after
800s	chapter two is this is the specifically
802s	all exclusively for chapter two right
804s	now we plan for this to just be part of
806s	chapter two
807s	um some things we'll make to keep make
810s	sense to keep as a permanent fixture but
812s	this is one that's part of the
813s	storytelling part of the narrative
814s	that's going forward so
816s	you know as we move Beyond this point in
818s	time it won't make sense for them to be
820s	there and you know you guys will
821s	eventually see where that leads to
822s	there's four reasons
825s	yes
827s	what Andy said
829s	it's ready to L word we love it oh yeah
832s	I super love it I've been getting a lot
834s	more involved with it as of late and it
836s	has been a blast oh yeah that's right
837s	yeah you've been you've been doing a lot
839s	of light writing stuff for
841s	yep
843s	you guys will see there's a kind of
845s	Stark change in the battle pass text in
847s	this in this version uh where it is more
849s	a story being told uh directly to you
852s	instead of something a bit more
854s	rhetorical and I intend to carry that
856s	out through the you know preceding
858s	seasons and
861s	um I'm actually working with the story
863s	that we're telling in game now so I
864s	think it's going to be exciting yeah
867s	yeah you've assumed Direct Control and
869s	you're like yeah pretty much it's mine
872s	I'm excited to see what kind of weird
873s	[ __ ] you throw at us yeah
876s	I know you guys are just saying chapter
877s	two now but chapter three is going to be
879s	nuts oh yeah we have all sorts of stuff
880s	like written out
882s	well and then uh sorry and I I did see
884s	someone uh write in channel so these
886s	head hunting camps will also will also
889s	be available on iOS have done not just
891s	things outlands and they'll be in
892s	multiple locations so it's like there
894s	just won't there won't be just like a
895s	single Camp yes that would be
901s	this particular one is just the one I
903s	always come to to test uh because it's
905s	at my Camp uh oh gotcha oh um so uh
909s	another question that I did actually see
911s	Pop Up in chat uh for the locations for
913s	the Katan camps like are there what will
915s	happen to like bases or buildings that
917s	might be nearby those or did we pick
918s	spots for the camps that are
920s	deliberately like away from like
922s	buildable areas yeah like the previous
923s	content we've put in we just put it in
925s	no build areas specifically so you don't
928s	have to worry about your base being
929s	there I think that going forward into
931s	the future too
932s	um
933s	probably starting with chapter three
934s	we're going to start doing something
935s	where we kind of shotgun blast the
937s	content in the map so we can put it in
940s	places where people have built or have
941s	or have not built but it doesn't
944s	necessarily need to be a no build area
945s	it'll just be wherever it can find a
948s	place to spawn so if you have a base
949s	somewhere and we put content there it
951s	just won't show up there it'll show up
952s	somewhere else oh okay I was I was
954s	really hoping you're going to say like
955s	you log in into suddenly there's just
957s	like no I'm not going to defy your life
959s	I'm not not because that would feel bad
961s	no that wouldn't feel very good yes yes
963s	thank you that would feel really bad but
965s	also that would be extremely funny
967s	it wouldn't be funny loss is terrible
971s	yes it is no it's true
974s	it's true on the events yeah yeah
977s	[Music]
979s	can be debated on or modded they can't
982s	be modded um whenever we created the
984s	system repeat the question I don't know
985s	if they can hear me so sorry yeah the
987s	question was uh will like our encounter
990s	what will the upcoming Encounters in the
992s	event in general uh be like moddable or
995s	like modifiable or like uh disabled
997s	disableable
1002s	on the admin side for like a private
1004s	server yeah so by large we do have a
1007s	server setting that lets you just turn
1008s	off all of the events or encounters and
1011s	this will be the same thing um so you
1013s	turn off this encounter you turn off
1015s	following counters
1016s	um outside of that we don't currently
1018s	have the ability uh for people to mod
1021s	these events it's a security reason I
1024s	would love just like everything we do I
1026s	would love to give everyone just full
1027s	run of it and be able to do whatever
1029s	they want but if we give you access to
1031s	some things then you get access to other
1033s	things that you shouldn't have access to
1035s	so yeah this is one of the end points
1037s	where we had to cut off and say
1038s	unfortunately you guys cannot create
1040s	your own events with our event system
1042s	although I will say this I made the
1045s	event system the actual skeleton of the
1047s	event system itself or as it's now
1049s	called The Encounter system it's not
1051s	that difficult so if you guys are
1053s	modders and you look into it you know
1054s	I'm sure you can figure it out really
1056s	quickly yourselves
1058s	um I know that like in Savage Wilds for
1060s	example uh they're working on their own
1062s	events in the map as well that follow a
1064s	similar structure to what we do
1066s	now technically I think actually they
1069s	may be released theirs a little bit
1070s	before ours but
1072s	they were in development simultaneously
1074s	yes
1076s	oh and then actually uh I'm sure this is
1078s	all kind of on that topic uh my Dev kid
1081s	oh yeah
1084s	um so obviously test lab is out today we
1086s	initially wanted to have my Dev kid out
1088s	today with test live as well but uh
1091s	right now we believe mod dev kit will be
1093s	shipped on the 15 which is one week from
1095s	today
1097s	um and then if you guys are following
1098s	our timelines and projections it should
1099s	allow around three weeks to be able to
1101s	update any mods that you have
1110s	are they going to be uh accessible in
1113s	the dev kit
1114s	uh they should be a base game item yeah
1117s	so just like um just like the armor
1119s	itself you know it
1121s	it's not monetized in any way it's just
1123s	a new item in the game so you should be
1125s	able to get them yourselves
1128s	sweet
1130s	yeah because I yeah I know that was a
1134s	it's a good thing to cover because we
1136s	had some issues the last time with the
1137s	mod dev kit and yeah and like I said you
1140s	know that's just our projection like
1142s	right now we don't have any reason to
1143s	believe it will be any later than the
1145s	15th it may uh and then yeah as long as
1148s	if it does we try our best yeah like
1149s	sometimes like yeah unavoidable or
1151s	unforeseen like
1153s	walls or hurdles like pop up and it's a
1156s	whole separate thing I don't know yeah
1157s	you know but we're updating the game in
1159s	one hand and updating the dev kit in
1160s	another so
1162s	what are you having a giggle back there
1163s	looks like you're having someone said
1164s	like why Bandy abandoned on fire because
1166s	it looks like you're currently oh
1170s	this is fine
1172s	I'm always on fire baby yeah that's a
1174s	secret that's my secret everything's
1176s	all's on fire around me I I
1184s	have a quick q a at the end and I'll ask
1186s	okay because I don't want to interrupt
1188s	you guys and you guys and talk about
1189s	something and then come ask us something
1190s	completely different oh gotcha yeah I
1192s	didn't know uh I didn't know if Jack
1194s	could hear Nicole very clearly but chat
1196s	does appear to be able to hear her just
1198s	fine so not to worry but if you do want
1200s	us to like repeat a question or
1201s	something like that uh let us know
1203s	please
1207s	um I lost my train of thought sorry
1210s	um we were talking about
1211s	events slash encounters
1214s	yeah and mod kit stuff oh yeah so event
1216s	yeah the event or the encounters
1218s	themselves won't be in the mod kit mod
1219s	kit will be coming out
1221s	the goal is next week next Tuesday the
1223s	15th
1225s	um
1226s	I think that I should cover that oh and
1229s	then chapter two itself
1231s	the aim is to have that out December 6th
1234s	yep
1235s	um so you know like I said before we
1237s	have like a 90 probably I think 91 days
1240s	is the time between our releases we're
1243s	trying to stick to it as much as we can
1244s	uh there's a lot of reasons to stick to
1246s	it
1247s	um consistency is important is one of
1249s	the biggest ones right like if if you
1251s	guys know something's coming you can
1252s	plan for it to be out and you're more
1254s	likely to you know participate with it
1257s	see the new stuff
1259s	um
1260s	yeah it's it's really as straightforward
1262s	as that you know we're working in 91 day
1264s	cycles and we hope to hit our targets
1266s	every time yeah and I think
1268s	um do we have a like a time remaining
1271s	counter with the test live update right
1273s	now check that um there used to be a
1275s	timer here in the battle pass that said
1277s	how many days were left I don't know if
1279s	that's on live right now I can't
1281s	remember
1282s	um it I think that we did fix it for
1284s	chapter two but obviously what you guys
1286s	are seeing here is actually the the
1288s	chapter one battle pass uh so some stuff
1292s	in the build we're on an internal Dev
1293s	build right now and it doesn't have all
1294s	of the stuff that you'll see yeah I like
1296s	the back like we have separate backends
1297s	that don't like owls talk to each other
1299s	and so we kind of had to like finagle
1300s	some stuff to get this to work with my
1302s	with our Dev accountant yeah not
1304s	everything is showing right now
1305s	eventually there will be a little a
1307s	little uh timer up here that says how
1308s	many days are remaining in the in the
1310s	chapter okay sweet
1313s	all right wax says that's gonna count
1315s	down the live version yeah well we do
1317s	intend to have a counter because that's
1320s	important yep and it lets you know how
1321s	much time you have left
1324s	okay well we will we will look into that
1327s	then make sure that there is a timer on
1329s	there
1331s	okay
1333s	thank you for that uh so of course this
1335s	is not the only thing that's going to be
1337s	included in chapter two uh I know some
1339s	several people in chat also we're asking
1341s	for what other kinds of things we can
1343s	expect to have included uh so we will
1346s	cover some of that real quick so we we
1348s	looked at the witch hunts we can look
1350s	that again uh we can take a quick look
1353s	at some of the head like other head
1354s	hunting camps this is just an example of
1356s	one that you can find in Iowa SEPTA they
1359s	just kind of
1360s	uh they'll all have like a similar look
1362s	so they'll be uh kind of this like
1364s	towering Caravan with cages and they'll
1368s	always be like a Brazier like a
1369s	sacrificial Brazier that you can stick
1372s	heads in
1373s	um if there's more like the skulls
1375s	eventually like pile up and like show up
1377s	in the Brazier is that a thing that's
1378s	just yeah I can spawn a bunch of them
1380s	yeah but why not yeah
1382s	I'm just letting a video play through
1384s	also just to like show like what one of
1386s	the costumes looks like we call them
1387s	braziers Brazier
1389s	very good yeah so uh you guys will see
1393s	this later too but as you as you get
1395s	skulls and add them to the bench you'll
1397s	get some rewards and you'll get a bunch
1399s	of uh
1400s	Obelisk and everything and you can stack
1402s	up a bunch of skulls when we were in
1404s	development I was like I need more
1405s	skulls they made a thing that had like
1407s	six skulls on it and I was like okay
1409s	more more skulls more and I just kept
1412s	asking for more and more skulls so we
1414s	got this really giant pile open
1416s	did we ever get a guess or how many
1417s	skulls were in that pile on social media
1419s	that's right
1423s	right actually yeah out of curiosity do
1425s	you know the maximum number of skulls
1426s	that this thing can display I'm actually
1428s	super curious like how many are actually
1430s	like showing up there I don't know the
1432s	number myself
1433s	I did get an update on the counter for
1436s	the battle pass the counter can be added
1438s	after we announced the release date so
1440s	after this stream we should be able to
1442s	add the the timer anytime to show how
1444s	much time is oh cool great
1446s	good good
1449s	oh yeah the rewards uh may be uh subject
1453s	to change as well too uh we're still
1455s	kind of feeling the rewards out
1456s	specifically okay as well but that is an
1458s	idea of the kind of stuff you'll see you
1460s	know like we have to think of stuff that
1462s	has value and things that it's not just
1464s	like super easy for you to farm on your
1466s	own so we want to give some stuff that
1468s	yeah incentivizes you to actually want
1470s	to participate in the activity or or
1472s	make it feel like you didn't lose time
1473s	because you want to do something else
1475s	that's right like I can't farm
1476s	alchemical base because I have to I want
1479s	to go do this event and get the armor
1481s	well you did the event here's some
1482s	alchemical base for your time face oh
1485s	that's good
1486s	yeah because like there's already like
1488s	plenty of like
1490s	there's a lot of things to do in the
1491s	game already especially in terms of like
1493s	upkeep and like upgrading your stuff so
1495s	like yeah more more parallel lines of
1497s	like things to do can definitely cut
1499s	into your yeah and a good match list uh
1502s	like internally in play tests we we
1504s	realized that like a lot of the time
1506s	you'll spend a day of play testing just
1509s	preparing to do something for another
1511s	activity so you know through the
1514s	activities that we had we wanna
1516s	not make the game take even longer for
1518s	you in that way
1519s	yeah we don't want like chores that you
1522s	just do I have to do all day yes the
1524s	goal
1525s	Jeremy repeat my question but yeah can
1526s	we do this
1529s	you can
1530s	so yeah the question was are we able to
1532s	do the witch hunts encounters even if we
1534s	are Sorcerers or corrupted ourselves
1537s	why not
1540s	uh I will ask
1542s	that's an important thing to know
1544s	probably I'm pretty sure it was actually
1547s	talked about and I just missed the thing
1548s	so I'm going to scroll through some chat
1551s	really quick and we can keep talking
1553s	about other stuff yeah uh well while you
1556s	do that I want to show you guys
1557s	something really cool that we added
1559s	um
1560s	in the battle pass and this is also a
1563s	little bit of a work in progress still
1564s	too because we're expanding it to
1566s	Encompass more than it currently does
1568s	but for a lot of things like
1572s	emotes uh We've added a little paper
1575s	doll over here so you can actually see
1576s	the emote in action before you unlock it
1578s	this will be available in the bazaar too
1580s	so you won't you'll you'll have more of
1582s	an idea of what you're buying when you
1584s	buy something you can also rotate this
1586s	around
1587s	you know so you can look at it from
1589s	different angles
1590s	it shows the armor and stuff that's on
1591s	your character now so if you're looking
1593s	at a different armor piece it'll like
1594s	swap out the one that you're looking at
1597s	um and this also works currently for
1602s	armor sets so now you can see a full
1604s	armor set I think that when the ships
1607s	for chapter two we'll probably be able
1609s	to see War paints if you don't see it in
1612s	chapter two you'll see it shortly after
1614s	because that's like the next thing on
1615s	our list but ultimately uh yeah we want
1619s	to be able to show all the stuff that uh
1622s	you can buy in a more engaging way to
1625s	make it just cooler to look at well yeah
1626s	and it's just like good like you said
1628s	also like generally speaking it's good
1630s	to know what you're getting definitely
1631s	oh does this apply to the shop or like
1633s	the bazaar as well oh yeah I I had
1635s	mentioned it but it should be a visible
1637s	inside as well it's okay I had missed
1639s	that while I was cruising chat oh by the
1640s	way to answer the question was yes oh we
1642s	can yes okay I don't have the specific
1644s	details on that I don't know if you do
1646s	but that would be a really good thing to
1647s	talk about here as well yeah so uh
1649s	additionally uh
1651s	starting from the 11th to the 21st of
1656s	November
1656s	[Music]
1659s	let me just double check here yeah 11th
1661s	of November 21st of November we'll be
1662s	having a bonus XP event
1665s	right so the XP doesn't really just
1668s	apply to character XP it's actually more
1670s	about the Battle pass itself so any
1672s	challenges you complete in that time
1674s	we'll be giving more experience I
1676s	believe we're also increasing the base
1678s	value
1679s	of the challenges that you complete
1681s	because
1683s	um by large right now everyone is a
1684s	little bit further behind than we
1686s	thought they would be in terms of being
1687s	able to complete the battle pass so we
1689s	want to speed it up so there's a little
1690s	bit more catch up and then going into
1692s	the next battle pass as well it'll be
1694s	easier to complete than the battle pass
1695s	is to complete right now because those
1697s	base values will remain higher
1700s	so yeah you'll see higher base values
1702s	and higher multipliers
1706s	that's good to know presumably
1707s	presumably I'm trying to say how that
1710s	you know that's the plan right now but
1712s	ideally that's the yeah that's how we
1715s	envision that that's actually really
1716s	good to know I wasn't uh I wasn't super
1717s	sure on like how like battle press sorry
1720s	battle pass progression was kind of like
1723s	looking like yeah like uh like at large
1726s	yeah we're keeping track of everything
1729s	we're keeping track of you know how far
1730s	people are in battle pass what kind of
1732s	Engagement people have with monetization
1734s	and things like that and making
1735s	adjustments along the way like I said we
1736s	would
1737s	um so it's one of those cases where you
1739s	know actions speak louder than words so
1741s	we have data that we can look at and
1744s	know which adjustments will make more
1746s	people happy and we go in that direction
1747s	to just try to make everyone have a
1749s	better time
1751s	yeah as it turns out we try to make a
1754s	game that people like yeah
1756s	amazing I know that's legal that's the
1758s	goal
1760s	um
1762s	other than this update won't just have
1763s	new stuff or they'll be fixes and stuff
1765s	involved oh my God there's like I think
1767s	he said like there's like 800 lines of
1768s	fixes in there like Excel sheet
1770s	internally or something like that yeah
1771s	so obviously there are patch notes on
1773s	test live right now it doesn't go into
1775s	the nitty-gritty and all the specific
1776s	things that are fixed but our patch
1779s	notes are compiled from an Excel Excel
1780s	sheet that we you know we dump all of
1782s	our completed tasks into an Excel sheet
1784s	and then
1785s	go through them all line by line and
1787s	compile the patch notes ignacy thank you
1789s	and
1792s	um
1792s	yeah I think I looked at it this time
1794s	and and there was something like 800
1796s	lines of completed tasks which includes
1799s	you know all the fixes we've done
1801s	everything almost all of them were you
1802s	know verified to be fixed so there's a
1805s	there is a big amount of stuff going
1806s	into this update sweet
1809s	um we don't have any uh sorry I'm just
1811s	going to answer one of the questions
1812s	let's chat
1813s	um what about character transfers are
1815s	you planning to return it
1816s	um I don't have a timeline for character
1818s	transfers right now
1820s	um
1821s	just no new information is the current
1824s	information I have
1825s	um I know that there are a lot of people
1827s	that want it
1829s	so it is on our radar absolutely
1832s	sweet
1833s	in addition uh I would like to also
1836s	highlight some of the other stuff that's
1838s	going into the update that's not just
1839s	fixes he's just showing some of the
1841s	other cool stuff off
1843s	so obviously like the head hunting event
1845s	and that'll pass stuff isn't for like
1848s	the fact that there will be a battle
1849s	pass isn't the only thing that we're
1851s	adding with the update and of course
1852s	like bug fixes and all that uh there'll
1854s	be a bunch of new uh like cosmetic
1857s	options building option or building
1858s	piece options obviously like Cosmetics
1860s	uh apart from the Mad profit gear uh we
1863s	have a couple here that I'd like to show
1864s	you
1865s	uh one of the things that we'll be
1867s	adding is a full-blown hedge maze set
1871s	so you can create your own uh whatever
1874s	you want to do you can create your own
1876s	uh crazy uh labyrinthine hedge maze uh
1881s	and they'll also of course be new
1882s	placeables new pets uh including this
1885s	beautiful
1887s	thanks Kitty
1889s	and a few other placeables as well
1893s	um they'll also be
1895s	uh new
1897s	storm glass pieces that'll be Cathedral
1901s	themed so this is an expansion of the
1904s	existing storm glass set
1906s	but there will be a whole bunch of new
1909s	options such as vet buttressing as well
1912s	as large doors large bunches though that
1915s	buttress though uh what that button
1920s	um so yeah there'll be a whole new uh
1921s	set of external and internal building
1923s	pieces as well as internal like
1925s	accessories and decorations as well
1927s	we'll show some of the Interior bits in
1929s	just a moment here once this clip
1930s	finishes
1933s	um so here we have a character uh during
1936s	the new the new interior bits uh the
1938s	pillars of course I think are new
1941s	uh well yeah they're actually one by one
1944s	but it takes four it takes four grid
1946s	spaces to create a pillar because you
1948s	have to put a corner they're all Corners
1950s	together there's a bottom a middle and a
1952s	top piece uh so you can make the pillars
1954s	as tall as you want as well cool
1957s	uh The Illusionist painting is really
1958s	cool the further sorry the closer you
1960s	get to it the more corrupted the
1962s	painting becomes
1963s	so as the camera zooms out I guess we
1965s	won't get to see it there yeah yeah the
1967s	the yeah the shot that we had yeah I
1969s	knew that it like shifted between the
1971s	corrupted and not corrupted
1973s	um
1974s	but uh yeah the clip that we got was
1976s	like just a really slow pain and by the
1978s	time we got away from it like you could
1980s	barely see like the change and I didn't
1981s	have a chance to like do uh the shot
1983s	that I want to do in game does The Maze
1985s	shot also show
1987s	um The Vines I wonder oh no but we do
1990s	have we do have a clip for that
1991s	specifically we'll show The Maze again
1992s	so you can see the kitties and then we
1994s	can I don't know the hegemaze is awesome
1996s	yeah yeah I'm really excited for it yeah
1998s	so the Hedge pieces are it's modular
2001s	Pieces Just Like building pieces um they
2003s	don't snap like building pieces uh last
2005s	I used them at least they were just
2007s	placeable so you could make any shape
2008s	you want it's not confined to just
2010s	squares and angles like you can make a
2012s	curve of walls if you want to there's a
2015s	lot of you know really cool stuff you
2016s	can do with the Hedge maze
2019s	um and then let's see where is this yes
2024s	uh and then of course like themed around
2027s	like our head hunting event uh there'll
2029s	be some new decorations where you can
2030s	have some prisoners or some Bounty
2032s	posters and
2034s	wall Ivy at last yeah finally so you can
2038s	actually now finally uh decorate the
2040s	exteriors of your buildings uh with
2042s	beautiful creeping Vine that crawls up
2044s	your uh walls we also have a new dog
2047s	cage yep little little house for your
2049s	furry buddies there's a new dog in there
2052s	as well a new dog themed dog in the
2054s	meeting I think we have yeah new pic
2055s	dish themed
2057s	um outfit I forget where you get that
2059s	from but yeah yeah uh it's I can't
2062s	remember which one it's on either all of
2063s	the assets you look at all this stuff
2065s	and there's so much stuff you have to
2066s	make every three months it Blends
2068s	together and you forget yeah yeah
2069s	category but uh
2072s	those are those are the new armor sets
2074s	between the battle pass and the bazaar
2075s	and actually the very end of that video
2077s	there was a purple guy on the right side
2079s	that was the armor set we made for
2081s	mechamosis we wanted to give him a
2083s	little bit of an overhaul but there was
2085s	also a tech issue that stopped us from
2087s	putting things that we sell on the NPCs
2093s	the armor set that was on the left in
2094s	the end of that video is how the Catan
2096s	Exiles were supposed to look if you
2098s	remember the Tableau from season or from
2101s	chapter one you see that armor set in
2103s	the tableau
2105s	[Music]
2105s	um
2107s	actually I'm gonna pop these up onto
2109s	this stream as well just so actually
2111s	that's the chapter two table you guys
2112s	haven't seen it yet I lied uh
2115s	but whenever that pops up you'll see
2117s	these guys they are representative of
2119s	the people that are in game but we
2120s	didn't get to put that armor set on the
2121s	main game for chapter two we are looking
2123s	to fix that for chapter three so
2125s	whenever we have our cool armor set we
2126s	make for a character we can also make it
2128s	one that you are able to uh
2131s	obtain
2133s	and that we can use in-game
2139s	all right let me see if I can get this
2141s	going here
2143s	we're just gonna have that pop up why
2145s	not yeah
2147s	so that's the Katan exiled armor
2150s	um because of the environment we're on I
2151s	can't spawn it on myself right now
2153s	but that's really what it looks like in
2156s	game right there it's really cool
2158s	there's a spear that goes with it as
2160s	well that matches oh and it's gigantic
2162s	isn't it
2163s	at one point gigantic uh it was like I
2166s	was playing Dark Souls and I had a
2168s	colossal weapon in my hand this spear
2170s	was like you know 50 too big it was yeah
2172s	cool yes here's another look at one of
2177s	the other armor sets I believe this is
2179s	like a necromancer themed armor uh that
2181s	was also shown at the end slide there
2183s	yeah and that's also shown in the scene
2186s	where the character was walking into the
2187s	cathedral that was the same armor set
2190s	uh and then
2193s	a fun little addition wait hold on hold
2195s	on where is it hold hold hold hold I'm
2198s	hold I'm holding hold
2202s	TD
2204s	yeah
2205s	another cool thing about the cats
2207s	actually is that yeah not only can you
2210s	get a cat in
2212s	I believe the battle pass
2214s	it might be the bizarre don't quote me
2215s	uh we also added hairless Captain the
2218s	world so you can now find pick up and
2221s	tame normal hairless cats as a pet that
2223s	sits around in your face find a little
2225s	little hairless kitten yay I think
2227s	there's three colors I'm excited there's
2230s	like a buff one a black one and another
2232s	shot of any of these artists off one no
2234s	yeah like
2240s	just like
2243s	you know this space kid that's just like
2244s	[ __ ] diesel it's just like dude let's go
2249s	on those uh on those stygian roids uh
2252s	Nicole sorry what was that sorry I
2254s	didn't know if we
2255s	artists were
2259s	don't worry oh I actually don't know off
2262s	the top of my head uh because it's a big
2264s	collaborative record between uh like our
2267s	studio here in NC as well as a number of
2269s	a couple concept artists over in
2271s	Portugal I think I think uh
2274s	or yeah those those one concept artists
2277s	from our Portugal Studio that did a ton
2279s	of our sorcery Concepts at least for
2281s	chapter one I can't remember off the top
2283s	of my head for chapter two stuff I know
2284s	UI stuff is all done by or a lot of that
2286s	is done by like Andy Swartz
2289s	uh model I mean our our art producer is
2291s	Chris Hammond Chris devilar does a lot
2293s	of the uh
2294s	sculpture yeah like modeling so
2297s	uh credit of course goes to our
2299s	amazingly talented artists that are here
2301s	uh if I missed any of you sorry
2305s	we can try to link them later if you'd
2307s	like that's for Christina
2310s	oh yes oh baby Warren oh yes
2314s	February quite the heavy hitter in our
2316s	studio yeah it's a monster he's been
2319s	around so long I'm sure he's watching
2320s	right now and I'll just take a moment to
2322s	say February and you're amazing you do
2324s	so much awesome stuff and like the
2326s	shortest turnaround time too it's so
2327s	great yeah you put a lot of stuff in
2329s	that also uh he plays a lot yeah so he
2332s	always has like a ton of feedback for us
2335s	on slack yeah and beggar has been with
2337s	us since Anarchy Online he's been here
2339s	longer than almost anybody
2341s	yeah he did a bunch of monsters from
2343s	like AO also so he's been around if you
2345s	ever see a monster that has a butthole
2348s	I didn't want to say it
2352s	yeah yeah his signature thing is well
2355s	well detailed sphincters on our on our
2357s	creatures
2361s	uh
2363s	anything so transition
2366s	um what other stuff
2367s	um
2369s	and there'll be a whole bunch of other
2370s	things uh to expect also uh
2373s	I guess we can talk about pet stuff too
2375s	because I know that was
2377s	not expected yeah yeah uh that kind of
2382s	was just a thing we stumbled into that
2384s	snowballed
2386s	um but essentially we got people
2388s	reporting you know that like the like
2390s	the cat pounces damage is insane now
2392s	things like that
2394s	um so we looked into it to figure out
2395s	exactly what was happening and when we
2396s	looked at our data in the back end there
2399s	were a lot of followers that you could
2401s	paint that were made with NPC attacks
2403s	instead of pet attacks
2405s	um so basically they were doing the kind
2406s	of damage that NPCs were supposed to do
2408s	Baseline and then scaling up like 20
2411s	levels with that
2412s	um
2413s	so yeah you'll find that the pet
2416s	followers are probably a bit nerfed in
2418s	most or all cases
2420s	um whenever they're pets that were very
2421s	strong to begin with however the reason
2424s	we did this is not just to make them
2427s	worthless it's now it's so now whenever
2430s	we you know want to actually tune them
2432s	up and make them a little bit closer to
2434s	what a normal thrall would be it's we
2437s	turn basically one knob instead of
2439s	having to go through and find all these
2441s	edge cases and find out exactly why some
2443s	things are broken some things aren't
2445s	um so yeah I think that in this update
2447s	you'll find that some cats are are some
2449s	pets not just cats specifically but some
2451s	pets are are doing a lot less damage
2453s	than they did previously
2455s	um I think that by large
2458s	some have increased some some have their
2460s	like damage output increased as well
2462s	like gorillas and scorpions enjoyed
2463s	quite a big boost for example gorillas
2465s	were very bad so so we made the gorillas
2469s	better as well but what we'd like to do
2471s	is get more feedback on it going forward
2472s	and you know after you've experienced it
2475s	see what it's like tell us more about
2476s	what you think and we'll turn some knobs
2477s	a little more and you know they're never
2480s	ever going to be a thrall like they're
2481s	never meant to be as good as a human
2483s	follower that you've converted and
2486s	equipped out with armor
2488s	um but they're meant to be a trade-off
2489s	you know they're they're easier to get
2491s	they're easy to tame
2492s	and you know we we may be able to do
2495s	some things like exploring making them
2497s	level faster or or something like that
2499s	you know give you more of a trade-off
2500s	kind of like we did with like the undead
2502s	followers with with necromancy yeah yeah
2504s	they're not as good as if you had a
2506s	full-on human that would last forever
2508s	but it's a quick means to an end just to
2510s	be able to have something to fight with
2511s	you yeah and again it's important to
2513s	also keep in mind that like I know the
2515s	word Nerf is very spooky but also like
2517s	this is intended to be kind of like a
2519s	like a phase zero of like a larger
2521s	that's the Baseline yeah like a larger
2524s	like it's laying the groundwork for
2526s	being able to more effectively balance
2528s	pet followers right because like if
2530s	they're not working properly then it
2531s	becomes a lot harder to balance as a
2533s	result and so like now that
2535s	have had their like the underlying stuff
2537s	fixed it's going to be a lot easier for
2539s	us to actually like
2541s	boost them if they need to be uh to
2544s	where we want them to be I kind of like
2546s	how we had with like human followers
2547s	also like there was a lot of like
2549s	overall we reduced their power but like
2551s	there's some trade-offs and they're
2552s	we're still working on some other stuff
2554s	that will also tie into or like you know
2556s	handshake with some of the changes we
2557s	made to yeah for all some human
2559s	followers as well yeah there's another I
2561s	know that some people still experience
2562s	loss with their human followers as well
2564s	after the last Nerf we did
2566s	um I think there's still a little
2568s	massaging to do there obviously and on
2571s	top of that there's actually a full
2572s	other system I think I've mentioned on
2573s	stream before that's going to be coming
2576s	later down the line to help reduce that
2578s	loss you experience as well
2580s	um yeah still something we're working on
2582s	and won't make it for the launch of
2583s	chapter two but something where yeah I
2585s	like very well aware of yeah I don't
2587s	know if it makes anyone feel better or
2588s	not in any way but I do play Exiles like
2591s	I am an Exiles player and I know what
2593s	it's like to lose things and I know
2596s	how how much time you lose when
2599s	something important dies or is destroyed
2602s	so you know we want to reduce that well
2605s	at the same time not making the game uh
2609s	in such a way that you keep everything
2610s	you ever have there's a balance to
2612s	stream
2614s	mm-hmm
2616s	things to look forward to I've actually
2617s	seen a lot of people ask about new
2619s	spells um we're not currently playing to
2621s	add new spells immediately
2623s	however the spell system is something
2625s	that we want to have in our pocket
2627s	that's like when we introduce new
2628s	features uh we can add spells that have
2631s	interplay with those as well so I I
2634s	don't think that you will see you
2636s	definitely won't see a new spell in
2637s	chapter two I don't believe you will see
2640s	one in chapter three but whenever we
2642s	start Age Two it is highly probable
2644s	there will be new spells included in the
2646s	second age which will not be
2648s	specifically sorcery themed so it's not
2651s	like we're just adding spells for
2652s	sorcery but it's another I always refer
2655s	to refer to it as Tools in our toolbox
2657s	you know it's more things that we can
2658s	give you guys to play with
2663s	sorry I had something Chad also asking
2665s	about one of the armor set that we
2666s	hadn't shown off yet and it looks like
2668s	we have another question from Chad
2669s	really fast too
2673s	yeah yeah we know we know
2676s	um yeah so I I actually touched on it
2679s	earlier but it was probably an indirect
2680s	answer so people might not have seen
2683s	is The acronian Illusionist set which
2685s	will also be available in the BattleBots
2686s	I believe someone was saying like oh is
2688s	that a cat ear armor so yeah it's
2689s	actually a fox yeah uh this one you
2692s	can't see it here but maybe in the video
2693s	shot you could see it but it has a fox
2695s	face on the front and one on the back as
2697s	well uh to kind of create this illusion
2699s	of not knowing if the character's coming
2701s	or going that's cool actually no that's
2702s	not that wouldn't be in the video uh but
2704s	that is very cool too you know uh yeah
2706s	but circling back
2708s	um people asking about bizarre prices
2711s	yeah um so I I mentioned it earlier and
2715s	you know we have data on you know what
2717s	people are engaging with what they're
2719s	not you know like I said earlier actions
2721s	speak louder than words and those
2722s	actions are empirical you know we can
2724s	look at them and see what you don't like
2725s	what you like what you're willing to do
2727s	what you're not and we will see
2729s	adjustments to things coming in the
2732s	second
2733s	uh chapter and it's another one of those
2736s	things that it's kind of like pet
2737s	balancing where we just have to evolve
2738s	it over time make a change see how it
2740s	reacts make a change see how it reacts I
2743s	think that by large you will probably
2744s	see those updates uh like per chapter so
2748s	if there's something that you don't like
2749s	in one chapter going to the next uh
2752s	that's the chance to see some some
2754s	difference I would say but like whenever
2757s	a chapter comes out that's like our best
2758s	guess for that chapter and I think for
2759s	the most part it will stay intact I
2762s	don't want to be 100 like that's the way
2764s	it is because anything at any time in
2766s	game development can be changed it's
2769s	just a matter of circumstances really
2772s	so yeah to to kind of summarize yeah
2774s	like it's an iterative process much like
2776s	everything we're not going to nail it on
2777s	the first try but we're going to
2779s	continue like evolving it and updating
2781s	it and iterating yeah uh as as Exiles
2784s	continues to grow and mature and as our
2787s	like move into like a proper like live
2790s	service kind of format for Exiles
2791s	continues to go forward as well is that
2793s	uh that's later I believe that is later
2796s	I don't have okay we won't talk about
2799s	details yeah I don't know off the top of
2800s	my head if we have any info about that
2805s	um
2805s	yeah I don't have any love on top of my
2808s	head for that uh we don't currently have
2810s	plans to support cross purchase between
2814s	platforms
2816s	um I actually touched on this in another
2817s	live stream but if you weren't there for
2818s	it
2819s	um we we thought it was more important
2822s	for people to not have to go in and
2824s	create accounts and sign up for things
2826s	to just making it easy as easy as
2828s	possible for you to be able to get into
2830s	the game
2832s	um and start interacting with it and
2834s	start being able to you know do the
2836s	battle pass or whatever without having
2837s	to literally log in and create an
2839s	account first then it was
2842s	um to have that cross-platform purchase
2844s	support
2846s	um we we think that by large there are
2848s	not a lot of players play on multiple
2850s	platforms
2852s	um it's hard to tell but that's the
2854s	thing that we can explore down the line
2855s	because it's not impossible it's just
2857s	not a thing that we're set up for right
2859s	now
2860s	gotcha
2861s	performance optimization when literally
2864s	always always I'm sorry before we jump
2867s	into more questions from Chad I do
2868s	actually want to also introduce like
2870s	eradication and then we can move into
2872s	more like proper language yeah yeah I
2874s	know you're being you're being you're
2876s	being so good and like engaging with
2878s	chat and answering all their questions
2879s	we'll get to that in just a second but
2881s	we have some other questions also that I
2882s	need some headphones now right oh yes
2883s	yeah so yeah we'll be dying your
2885s	headphones so oops geez Andy let me just
2888s	reach down here and get these yeah sorry
2893s	oh God be back oh no
2898s	did you hear that oh God wait why is the
2901s	game is it oh you had to turn the gain
2903s	up for people hear us
2905s	yeah
2907s	okay I don't think that came through the
2910s	stream I think that was just um
2912s	they probably heard it through the
2914s	microphone yeah because I had it right
2915s	here was it like really loud or was it
2917s	like just through the microphone sorry
2918s	about that turn it up again
2920s	no one's screaming so yeah okay no yeah
2922s	there's no cats like no spam in chat
2925s	was it really that bad
2928s	it was a bit oof that's Jordy oh yeah
2930s	yeah I'm sorry sorry guys yeah the
2934s	headphones were literally like right
2935s	against my mic so sorry

3122s	brief moment
3123s	um and I believe you also had some
3125s	questions yourself that you wanted to
3126s	ask uh this might mirror some of the
3128s	like questions that we might get from
3129s	the community but we wanted an
3131s	opportunity for to to give the floor to
3134s	you if you wanted to ask any questions
3135s	or any anything else that you wanted to
3136s	bring up some floor is yours yeah
3139s	awesome well I certainly do have a few
3141s	questions yeah firstly the um the
3143s	Headhunter event the Mad profit set
3145s	assuming that is rolled out of the
3148s	reward table at the end of chapter two
3149s	will that be coming back similar to the
3151s	events from grave matters
3153s	right uh are you able to hear yeah I can
3155s	hear okay cool
3157s	yeah
3158s	um I think that we will what what I like
3160s	to do or had done so far is take the
3163s	things that we make like the um a good
3166s	example is the um the sorcerer armor the
3168s	um
3169s	why is it the Mad Prophet or the the
3172s	skelos armor the skelos armor sets yeah
3175s	I like to take them and inject them
3177s	somewhere else in content after the
3178s	temporary content's gone so probably
3180s	what you'll find is just an alternative
3182s	route or way to learn this armor set you
3185s	know like maybe it gets added to the
3186s	library of recenteric artifacts or
3188s	something like that gotcha cool um but
3190s	yeah even after the content is gone we'd
3192s	like to keep a way for you to be able to
3193s	get the set still cool so it won't go
3195s	away forever even after the actual like
3197s	event stuff is done
3199s	or that's the intent TBD on how how will
3202s	actually be like obtainable after the
3205s	event but that's the intent
3208s	awesome so staying on the topic of the
3210s	Headhunters I'm assuming there is no
3213s	daily limit on it that's so you can just
3215s	infinitely complete them as much as you
3216s	want oh yeah definitely like I said you
3219s	know it's uh not tied into monetization
3221s	in any way so there's really no limit to
3222s	it if you you can even just spawn like I
3226s	did on stream I just spawned the skulls
3227s	in my inventory and put them on there
3228s	you know uh it's it's there for you to
3231s	engage with it's there for you to play
3232s	with
3233s	have fun sweet
3235s	very nice
3236s	so you mentioned the uh the witch hunts
3238s	as well which look really cool the
3240s	question I have is are they all around
3242s	sort of the same difficulty Mark or are
3244s	some intended to be more challenging
3247s	other role I would say they're all
3249s	roughly around the same
3252s	we we try to follow a paradigm that the
3254s	you know the further north you go on the
3256s	map the more difficult it gets and
3258s	um for the most part you'll find these
3260s	Sorcerers in the difficult areas and
3261s	Exile lands
3263s	um
3264s	and an IO SEPTA it's a bit of a mixed
3267s	bag because we didn't have the same kind
3268s	of rules to follow as far as geography
3271s	equals difficulty kind of thing
3273s	um but yeah I think that one thing
3275s	that's interesting that you'll see and
3277s	I've seen this as a point of feedback
3278s	but it's really the way it's meant to be
3280s	is that people say it's harder to fight
3282s	the trash than it is to fight the
3284s	sorcerer themselves but it's really by
3286s	Design Sorcerers themselves are are
3288s	mentally
3290s	uh you know high in fortitude and and
3292s	power but physically they're very frail
3294s	they're not the kind of you know
3295s	barbaric Warriors that your your
3298s	character plays out to be and even in
3299s	the sort in the um
3301s	sorry the corruption system that we
3302s	added for perks we let you do that to
3305s	your character we let you make yourself
3306s	weaker by body to have a stronger mind
3310s	um so so yeah they they will have about
3312s	the same difficulty I wouldn't expect
3313s	them to be extremely difficult by any
3315s	means
3317s	um
3317s	so
3319s	probably if you're like a
3322s	I know somewhere around
3325s	probably just anything slightly above
3327s	iron you know iron tools and stuff if
3329s	you're a good player you'll be able to
3330s	take them down or sorry iron weapons
3332s	you'll be able to take them down it'll
3333s	take some work and you'll need to follow
3334s	her but beyond that it just becomes
3336s	easier really
3338s	awesome
3340s	so obviously you've mentioned a lot
3342s	about the story with about past and I
3344s	think from my perspects anyway the jump
3346s	in how present the story is from chapter
3348s	one to chapter two is pretty obvious is
3350s	this something that's going to continue
3351s	with the more like clear Forefront
3353s	because if it is I'm all here for it
3355s	yeah certainly you know we have a lot of
3358s	other contemporaries to model ourselves
3360s	after at this point there's a lot of
3361s	people that are putting in you know
3363s	updates and even fun con themselves have
3365s	done in the past with our MMOs so and in
3368s	the first chapter
3370s	we were a bit hamstrung on time because
3372s	of the other we basically shifted all of
3375s	our work uh load to sorcery itself that
3377s	was where most of the work went in so we
3379s	didn't have as much ability to put as
3381s	much stuff in for the story in chapter
3383s	one and that's why you kind of see it
3385s	being told in the background
3387s	um so yeah chapter two you'll start to
3389s	see more stuff in chapter three you know
3391s	we we always wanted to be an escalation
3393s	so chapter one will probably start out
3395s	on the uh I don't want to say more
3397s	boring side but like the less visually
3399s	impactful side it just sets the stage
3401s	yeah exactly exactly it's the exposition
3404s	right it's telling you what's happening
3405s	yeah and we're essentially telling a
3407s	story in 3x here right so each one will
3409s	escalate to a point of basically a
3411s	breaking point where
3413s	in the third chapter you can almost
3415s	always expect something mad to be
3417s	happening
3419s	that is that is very exciting Trapster
3421s	is even out we're already waiting for
3422s	chapter three well yeah I've been
3425s	working on chapter three for like six
3427s	months already so or more maybe even
3430s	my timeline's skewed from everyone
3432s	else's well plus I mean this kind of
3435s	stuff has to get worked out like well in
3437s	advance too it's not like yep
3440s	to slap together a script three days
3442s	before launch all good it's fine we
3444s	don't need localization let's get on the
3446s	vo Booth oh yes yes gladly
3450s	finally my time
3453s	so sticking to the theme of the story
3455s	events again
3456s	um with obviously the escalation has the
3459s	death team considered maybe new PVE
3461s	dungeons tied into the story I think
3463s	that mainly you know coming around the
3464s	end of a story age for example but I
3467s	think a new story based PVE dungeon
3469s	could be pretty cool
3470s	yeah uh it's definitely a thing that
3472s	we've thought about because
3475s	um
3476s	I don't think it's any kind of uh
3479s	I don't think there's any reason I
3480s	couldn't say this or not but we released
3481s	the immersive survey
3483s	um
3484s	probably about a year and a half ago at
3486s	this point a year a year and a half ago
3488s	and a lot of the takeaway we got from it
3490s	is you know one of the big things is
3491s	that people really like Dungeons
3493s	um for as many people did the survey
3496s	almost everybody like Dungeons and some
3498s	other activity primarily so dungeons are
3500s	really high on our radar in terms of
3503s	uh engaging experiences we can create
3506s	they are also very expensive to make is
3509s	the other side of it so I actually think
3511s	that if you see a dungeon come in it may
3513s	often even happen in the beginning
3515s	of of an age because
3517s	it would have to be something that we're
3519s	working on while in other age is in
3521s	progress
3523s	um but yeah uh dungeons definitely on
3526s	our radar when I joined the team I think
3529s	I've mentioned this uh as well either on
3531s	the forums or on a stream I can't
3532s	remember but when I joined the team they
3534s	told us we can't expand into the other
3536s	corner of the map because there's a
3537s	bunch of dungeons up there
3539s	I looked into it myself there's not a
3541s	bunch of dungeons up there so we might
3543s	have some more real estate to work with
3545s	at some point in the future you know
3546s	again tentatively it could happen might
3549s	not
3550s	um I I just think that by large in the
3552s	Exile lands there is more room to add
3554s	more stuff
3555s	there's a lot of factors that go into it
3557s	one of the biggest ones is actually
3558s	consoles
3559s	um
3560s	we
3562s	have to manage our the memory that we
3564s	have on consoles a lot more than we do
3565s	on PC so we have to pick and choose
3567s	exactly what we put in we have really
3569s	limited real estate on consoles right
3571s	and and that's another thing we're
3573s	always working to optimize as well I
3574s	know that a lot of people
3576s	um probably showed up today wondering
3579s	what kind of news we had as far as
3580s	consoles would go yes a lot of questions
3582s	about like PlayStation stuff also yeah
3584s	there's still um new performance or
3586s	sorry there's new there's performance
3587s	issues happening there still some
3589s	invisible things happening we are still
3591s	looking into it and most often it boils
3593s	down to that that memory restriction
3594s	that we have and you know we can only
3596s	move so much stuff at once so we're like
3598s	I said earlier we are always in a state
3600s	of optimizing things we get the reports
3602s	in that you guys have we're literally
3604s	always working on them and then we're
3606s	always working against them at the same
3607s	time putting months of battle pass
3609s	content and and Shop content at the same
3611s	time so it's a little bit of a tug of
3613s	war of sorts
3615s	my Expressions breaking a little bit
3618s	Nicole's being very funny behind me
3620s	sorry
3625s	outside of the story events
3628s	um the storm glass cathedral set looks
3630s	amazing obviously the last Edition was
3634s	the Arcane set which augmented Sandstone
3636s	stone brick and reinforced stone is that
3639s	something that you're trying to do going
3640s	forward where you augment existing sets
3642s	or is it just as and where it fits in
3645s	uh yeah it's kind of a
3648s	it's going to be both um like I expect
3650s	that we'll see new things and we'll see
3653s	augmentations to existing ones because
3654s	we already have a really wide like
3656s	breadth of uh available themes for
3659s	building sets and we know there's a lot
3661s	more things that we can do within those
3663s	building sets and that's why you see the
3665s	things like like the narrow stairs and
3668s	you know the just the new pieces that we
3670s	add in the cathedral pieces
3672s	um
3673s	it's also
3675s	um a bit of a in a way a Time Saver for
3677s	us because we don't have to concept what
3680s	is Storm glass to begin with we already
3682s	have a baseline for that so getting new
3684s	pieces into production for existing sets
3686s	is a bit faster but I think that you you
3688s	should expect to see a mix of both going
3690s	forward where we you know we will at
3692s	some point see new building sets and
3694s	some points see additions to others the
3696s	cathedral set specifically was one I was
3699s	really excited about too because like I
3701s	was like
3702s	you know we're gonna they're like we're
3704s	gonna theme all these pieces off like
3705s	these different you know these
3706s	architectural things and I was like
3707s	that's that's Cathedral pieces this is
3709s	Storm glass at the Cathedral yeah like
3711s	it fits in perfect with like the gothic
3712s	Vibe of it and I just think they look
3715s	great I I wish that we had a building
3717s	shown that we could run around in today
3718s	because of how cool it looks oh yeah you
3722s	guys can like you know you'll see soon
3723s	enough it's really awesome
3725s	yeah I probably could have grabbed
3726s	something from like a game DB for
3729s	marketing there's some in the videos
3730s	that we showed it's uh you'll just have
3732s	to make your own yeah
3736s	okay I think uh so eradication I think
3738s	we have time for one more and then we're
3740s	probably uh just gonna be finishing up
3743s	from here
3744s	yeah yeah well I've got one more for the
3746s	law now didn't me yeah go for it
3749s	so without going too specific for anyone
3751s	that doesn't know there is a bit of
3752s	Story related content from the story
3754s	that I think is really interesting that
3756s	involves a certain sorcerer
3758s	assuming that content won't be used as
3761s	is will that content be used to inform
3763s	or maybe even Inspire like story beats
3765s	in the future
3767s	are you talking about who I think you're
3768s	talking about
3770s	I I could be a certain ring even the
3774s	mouse people are getting dizzy oh
3777s	sorry guys
3779s	uh
3784s	uh that that character
3788s	will see
3791s	progression in the future like
3794s	right now everything in the exiled lens
3796s	is very static and has been very static
3798s	for a long time
3800s	um because we haven't really put the
3801s	resources into telling the story and
3803s	moving it forward
3804s	uh
3805s	I have plans
3807s	or everyone involved in the current
3809s	storyline
3810s	to not end up the way that they
3812s	currently are
3814s	that's very exciting that's fun
3817s	not the way they currently are you mean
3820s	like in terms of what's going absolutely
3822s	yeah or like are they just going to get
3824s	turned into like a pile of mush
3826s	speculate
3828s	hooray
3832s	slightly excited slightly scared I'll be
3835s	honest no it's gonna be awesome I'm
3837s	really excited hell yeah I'm looking
3838s	forward to it
3840s	us too
3842s	okay well I well eradication thank you
3845s	so much for joining us I think uh
3848s	I think we've answered uh plenty of
3849s	questions yes everyone after the stream

3859s	linked it in chat as well make sure to
3861s	go go check out the channel I can

3870s	we'll have we look forward to seeing
3872s	more from you as well eradication
3873s	definitely oh there's plenty more coming
3875s	thank you very much for having me guys I
3877s	really appreciate it of course yeah
3878s	thanks again for taking time uh this
3880s	evening uh to just join us and just like
3882s	hang out and ask some questions so
3884s	anytime yeah man
3886s	all right well uh I beat you into your
3889s	eradication gonna be
3891s	closing this up really quick
3894s	okay so that was me headphones sorry
3897s	yeah yeah so
3899s	I think that about wraps it up for
3901s	today's stream I think we answered we
3903s	got a chance to answer a bunch of
3905s	questions in chat I hope hopefully there
3907s	were a bunch of bringing questions
3910s	um I know there's several questions in
3911s	chat that we haven't had a chance to get
3912s	to but we have covered a couple of those
3914s	things
3916s	um if you want to answer a couple more
3917s	questions go ahead otherwise we're
3918s	probably going to be finishing up
3920s	shortly so we can let you all go play on
3922s	test live and let us know what you think
3923s	do you have any queued up nickel
3927s	um Muslim you already answered and so
3929s	nothing in particular you can just take
3931s	them from chat if you want yeah I mean
3934s	yeah one that I see repeated a few times
3936s	is um talking about like adding us like
3938s	a like a new dungeon to like in
3941s	corporate Staff Source reincorporated
3942s	and I think yeah I mean we'd love to but
3946s	yeah it'll have to be a right time and
3948s	right place kind of thing yeah um
3949s	obviously like
3951s	sorcery as it exists now
3954s	um we've we've put out what we can
3956s	revolving around sorcery for the
3958s	timeline that we had so
3960s	it will have to be something that works
3962s	its way into this basically into the
3964s	story somehow I think yeah
3966s	yeah
3967s	yes redoing uh if like challenges will
3970s	be
3971s	um not not based but kind of redone
3974s	changes the challenge system so like at
3975s	level 60 I shouldn't be able to like arm
3977s	Stone like kind of more
3980s	oh we we won't see that come in chapter
3983s	two but that's the thing that I've never
3985s	seen my question to you oh sorry yeah so
3987s	like
3988s	um the question was like will uh uh are
3991s	there plans in the future to like uh
3993s	have challenges kind of be more like
3995s	consummate to like the player level so
3996s	for example a Max Level player isn't
3998s	being asked to farm like basic
4001s	uh resources for example for a challenge
4004s	well I think that um
4006s	is that the question that I did I
4007s	misinterpret the question is that okay
4009s	okay I thought you were asking a
4010s	different question which is if I reach
4011s	level 60 why would I do challenges no
4014s	that's a question that's a question we
4015s	do want to address but it won't happen
4016s	in chapter two
4018s	um and as far as the specific challenges
4020s	that you get
4022s	um we are we we can actually update
4024s	these ones live we don't even need to
4026s	patch to update them oh cool but
4028s	basically we can change the criteria for
4030s	specific events or challenges excuse me
4033s	and there will be some updates to those
4035s	in chapter two
4037s	where first of all whenever you log into
4039s	a chapter for the first time you will
4041s	get a specific set of challenges that
4043s	we've said for your character of this
4045s	level range these are the challenges you
4046s	should be doing and then after that we
4048s	want to update the criteria for them
4050s	better to make it so you're not doing
4052s	things that don't make sense like a
4054s	level 10 character shouldn't log in and
4056s	get a challenge to mine black ice for
4059s	example right so for the most part we're
4061s	most fixated on in that direction where
4063s	we don't want to ask low-level
4064s	characters to do something they can't do
4066s	it's more okay for us as high level
4069s	characters to do something that feels
4070s	tedious but we still want to reduce that
4073s	as well
4075s	um lots of questions on being able to
4077s	dye your Saddles there's not a plan for
4080s	that at the moment yeah he said oh sorry
4083s	repeating questions I I saw yeah uh I
4086s	saw a whole bunch chat just blew up let
4088s	us die Saddles yeah um yellow Lotus
4091s	potion we have looked into and there
4094s	will be probably changes to the yellow
4096s	Lotus potion itself coming soon but it
4098s	won't be immediately with season uh
4100s	chapter two excuse me
4103s	um
4104s	I don't think that anyone
4106s	as far as I know
4109s	you shouldn't lose the sorcery Feats
4111s	from using the yellow Lotus potion in
4113s	this update but it's a thing I'll have
4115s	to follow up on and make sure that I
4117s	actually got him panned out
4119s	that has a whole history behind it
4122s	unfortunately
4123s	um
4124s	diable Shield uh sorry not diable
4126s	shields dyable uh reliable Saddles is a
4129s	thing that we have to pre-plan I think
4132s	when we're making Saddles so we make the
4134s	materials in such a way that we can pick
4135s	things that you can change so we might
4137s	be able to go backwards with some of
4140s	those and and make things dyable but
4142s	sometimes you'll see armor sets that
4144s	don't die quite the way you expect them
4145s	to and it's because they weren't planned
4147s	to accept the eyes in the first place
4149s	the materials not engineered to accept
4150s	them very well
4153s	um the acronian Leggett Primus armor
4158s	um
4160s	was that the armor set that like we said
4162s	was craftable and turned out not to be
4163s	craftable
4164s	it was intended to be shipped as part of
4167s	learning sorcery so whenever you like
4171s	get the book from karak and everything
4172s	you can make that armor immediately
4175s	that armor will become available
4178s	I can't remember exactly what I decided
4180s	to do with it I um there may be another
4183s	system coming down the road that has
4184s	been included as a reward for so I don't
4187s	want to get too ahead of myself but that
4188s	is on my radar is the most important
4190s	thing I guess I would say
4192s	uh I want a beard like Andy unlikely
4195s	good luck damn
4201s	this thing is a blessing and a curse let
4203s	me tell you
4208s	oh yeah okay dying Saddles would be a
4211s	lot of rework not impossible but would
4213s	be a lot of work because yeah those
4214s	items were not actually originally
4216s	created together exactly since you said
4218s	yeah
4219s	snake pets so the hard part about snake
4222s	pets is
4223s	it's easy to make a snake pet that
4225s	follows you and doesn't fight in combat
4227s	that's fine we can make that happen
4229s	having them be a snake that does engage
4231s	in combat is
4233s	more difficult because hitting a snake
4235s	is very hard
4237s	you have to look down to hit a snake and
4239s	uh it might it might result in some
4242s	unfavorable gameplay but it's a thing we
4244s	can try out for sure especially with a
4247s	lot of you know setites and everything
4250s	it makes sense for people to have snake
4251s	beds
4254s	I think we have time for just like a
4256s	couple more and then propellada to get
4258s	going for the day
4259s	yeah we're just going over some chat
4261s	stuff real quick what about big snakes
4264s	yeah yeah like a set size I thought it
4266s	would have to be it would have to be a
4267s	big snake like the snake called Caravan
4269s	snake oh yeah uh that pulls the wagon
4271s	hell yeah
4275s	give me the large danger noodle
4278s	I'll name him George character
4280s	generation improvements is an
4281s	interesting one
4282s	um it's another thing that would require
4284s	a lot of work for us to go back and fix
4286s	but it's definitely a thing that I think
4288s	has a lot of value to us um like being
4291s	able to add new haircuts and makeup and
4293s	you know head shapes or whatever to
4295s	character creation
4297s	um one of the biggest reasons we don't
4298s	do that right now is because it will
4300s	break a lot of mods
4304s	that needs to go in on the technical
4306s	side to
4307s	allow anyone to be able to add stuff to
4310s	it
4313s	gotcha and then so yeah I saw a couple
4316s	questions for I I missed the name but uh
4319s	Anna sorry I'm I'm terribly sorry I
4321s	missed your name but Anna was asking if
4323s	there's uh there's gonna be a back
4325s	button on the sorcery stuff you can
4327s	already cancel your current cast with
4329s	the heavy attack I think yeah it's a
4331s	full cancel though um they can't go back
4334s	a step right there's no there's no
4336s	option to go back and actually in this
4337s	update you guys will I think
4340s	yes thank you thank you in this update
4342s	you guys will hear the new Words of
4344s	Power sorry you're you're like I saw the
4346s	question and then the name scrolled up
4348s	off the screen off of this side here so
4349s	I only caught like I saw the verified
4351s	Mark and then I saw Anna B but I didn't
4353s	want to like say the whole thing sorry
4355s	Anna Briella yes thank you for the
4357s	question uh so one thing that's in this
4360s	I think it's in this update is the new
4362s	um
4363s	the new voices for the words of power uh
4367s	one of the things that we didn't get
4369s	whenever
4370s	uh we ship sorcery was the final vo for
4373s	the the words themselves so knowing why
4376s	there's not a back button plays into the
4378s	actual
4379s	uh the thematics of sorcery which is
4382s	that you are speaking a word and
4384s	Performing magic the the power comes
4387s	from the words that you're speaking so
4389s	if we let you kind of go back it would
4390s	be like saying
4392s	I can want to find but then I you know
4395s	you would be kind of like not saying
4397s	something coherent oh yeah I guess it's
4399s	like yeah gosh yeah so you're you're the
4401s	full phrase is where the power comes
4403s	from not like you can't just like yeah
4405s	what is that what does that sound like
4407s	Evil Dead style like wait wait wait
4410s	trying to like go back on your uh
4413s	on the incantation to summon things and
4416s	then we should add that but then like if
4419s	you go back it just like has a chance to
4421s	like totally screw up the spell there
4423s	you go
4424s	just you just immediately transported
4426s	into the Evil Dead Universe Sam Raimi
4428s	please don't sue us
4437s	hopefully you can hear these okay
4442s	time
4444s	baptized yeah so there's new there's new
4448s	male and female voices um and and really
4450s	whenever you're speaking the words of
4452s	power the runes are like a syllable or a
4454s	vowel or you know a fragment of a word
4456s	and when you choose it you say the word
4458s	out loud and then it forms the full word
4460s	at the end
4461s	this is bad country
4467s	so there's new male and female horses
4469s	for that
4470s	there you go see
4475s	oh uh
4477s	actually I'm not sure if it's there but
4478s	we're actually making casting happen a
4480s	bit faster as well oh good I think
4481s	that's in these patch notes
4484s	um essentially you don't have to wait
4485s	for the Rune to fill out before you can
4487s	pick it anymore so it's going to really
4489s	reduce the amount of time it takes to
4490s	cast a
4491s	a higher tier spell I think it changes
4494s	from like 12 seconds to eight seconds or
4497s	something like that again it's still a
4498s	significant amount of time but it's not
4500s	as long as it was before so you know
4502s	it's just up there like stun mopped
4503s	waiting for like to form so here you can
4505s	see I'm able to click it before the Rune
4507s	even appears
4510s	boy get your get your APM up
4516s	lightning storm in the new West
4523s	and yeah like you said uh it does uh
4525s	Google TK it does reward like
4527s	memorization and knowledge of like which
4529s	path to go yeah I just tested it sweet
4533s	sweet someone asked will my Chrome coins
4535s	automatically become Obelisk I have or
4538s	do I have to spend them in time before
4539s	the new update
4540s	these are two separate things entirely
4542s	uh Chrome coins do not become Ancient
4545s	obelisks Ancient obelisks are just a
4547s	currency that you get for completing an
4550s	activity in the game there's no
4551s	connection it's not a paid currency or
4553s	anything
4555s	uh here's some ancient obelisk in games
4558s	uh and um eradication if you can figure
4561s	out who's depicted on this coin you know
4564s	that could be the basis for an entire
4565s	video for you potentially so good luck
4572s	hopefully hopefully you heard that I
4574s	have I haven't call muted right now
4575s	sorry yep
4579s	and yeah with uh just just to emphasize
4581s	oh
4583s	uh people asked about Regional pricing
4586s	as well um that's a thing we're working
4588s	on
4589s	um
4590s	I don't have a really specific update
4591s	for it I don't even know if I'm really
4593s	supposed to say that we're working on it
4594s	but we are
4596s	it's yeah it's a complaint that we're
4598s	like pretty aware of but we don't really
4599s	have any like other comment to like
4601s	offer but it's something we're very
4603s	aware of and are like looking to our
4605s	options but money stuff is always a
4608s	little tricky so yeah we hear you
4612s	uh we are aware of the bug that you can
4614s	place armor and weapons on zombies I
4616s	believe that is fixed in chapter two
4618s	um I think that it was meant to go in
4620s	chapter three and I asked for it to be
4622s	cherry-picked into chapter two so even
4624s	if it's not in the first update of
4625s	chapter two it'll come really soon after
4651s	all right friends well it is at 12 30
4654s	here we've had a little bit a little
4656s	under an hour and a half because of some
4658s	of the uh technical issues that we had
4661s	earlier today I know I saw one person
4662s	they tried to feel really bad because
4663s	they were in the last stream
4665s	and then because we because we went live
4667s	again and that created another
4668s	stream instance and so they were in the
4670s	last one that we were in oh I guess or
4673s	something like that and they were like
4673s	they're saying that they were waiting in
4674s	a different stream and missed most of
4676s	the Stream
4678s	or something like that I don't know
4680s	yeah sorry about that but the Bob will
4682s	be available we can watch it sorry
