Sorry to be „that guy”, but the answers seem computer generated PR fluff. I mean, look at the reply given to Lizard and to the question about auto-cast, just to name a couple.

I mean, I get it, they cant go into too much detail, but come on! Also, sometimes a simple yes or no would suffice. Using the same patterns („looking forward”, „the team is committed to”) is disingenuous, especially to the veterans.

I know your heart is in the right place, but make it more personal. Dont treat us as your customers, but as players from a community. Maybe even friends.

Hi Daniel, I'm sorry you feel that way! May I ask what question you'd like a more direct answer to? Some things of course I can't reveal entirely but maybe there's something you are curious about that I can.

LOL the AMA got removed because he did not have "adequate proof" even though he was flaired for a scheduled AMA? That sub is... strange.

Haha yea, the mods had sent me a message to add proof but I was so caught up in answering people that I didn't see the message until it was taken down and I went searching. Was a pretty effective way to send me the message I suppose!

How are you and the team doing today?

Super good and super busy. Last days before patch are usually quite intense to get last minute polish in.

Any plans on making the Druid synergize better with skill points in Werebear form? Currently feels like 90% of the time my other skills are useless.

Yes! Druid is going to be receiving some significant love after the 0.8.2 patch. We have the new bear form model and the new unannounced form being rigged/animated at the moment and they're awesome. We'll be revisiting a number of skills and passives with that update.

Do you have any plans on releasing additional classes before/with 1.0 aside from the sub-classes that are still to be added in the game? Regardless if that is or isn't on the table yet, do you have any idea of what a future class might look like and are you willing to experiment with innovative and unique concepts that go beyond the relatively standard Rogue/Warrior/Mage/Druid(Primalist) archetypes that are seen in majority of games?

No additional classes/masteries outside of those announced before 1.0 but we already have plans for additional masteries that we haven't talked about yet. You guys may be able to guess some if you know the game well and have a sense of what is missing from the toolkits and pairings.

First off, thanks for all the hard work, I am absolutely loving the game so far, and it only seems to get better and better every patch.

What are your long term plans with post release content, such as seasons/leagues. What kind of things can we look forward to being different between them?

Thanks for the kind words!

We'll have leagues/seasons - our term for them is "Cycles". There will be a large variety of updates we'll make in those releases including end game systems, features, new masteries (maybe even classes a bit down the road, items, mechanics and anything else we feel would make the game better. Oh, and they'll of course come with a ladder and economy reset.

Hi, I bought the game years ago, I migrated to Linux this week, and performance is an issue right now. Is there more improvements planned for a better Linux performance/support?

I am using Nvidia official drivers and the game on OpenGL is giving me 30 fps and on Vulkan with -force-vulkan only prrsents a blank screen.

We have some performance updates coming in 4 days! Hopefully they'll help but if they don't please let us know on the forums. We'll have our main dev that focuses on performance back on performance related things heavily for 0.8.3 as he was helping with server-side multiplayer optimization quite a lot this last dev cycle.

Thank you so much Judd!

We definitely don't want to make the game too "zoomy" but there of course will be builds that are a bit faster than others if that's what you're looking for.

Multiplayer and trade systems are in the works but will be "ready when they're ready". Good progress but still more to go.
