Howdy!

So, in Last Epoch at release, we’ll have online-only, server-side characters and offline-only, locally stored characters. For the sake of simplicity, it’s fairly likely we’ll use separate clients to access these - i.e. installing the game would include both le_online.exe and le_offline.exe.

The use of third-party software to modify how the online client works will not be supported - or allowed. Doing so may result in action being taken against your account.

For offline characters, we will be happy for people to install and use mods as they wish. Our current focus is on finishing the game and having the best release possible. After the game has been officially launched we’ll explore ways of supporting mods. A lot of us have really enjoyed using mods when playing other games, but it’s difficult to prioritize spending time on supporting mods over other work - such as improving and expanding the core game.

Having multiple executable files would increase the testing required, but it wouldn’t double it.
