Transcript (by Youtube)

2s	good afternoon everybody and welcome
4s	back to the last epoch
6s	let me try that again last Epoch Dev
8s	stream I know the name of my own game
10s	let's go how's it going everybody as
13s	always I'm your host Mike
14s	and we're gonna get going right away
16s	here
20s	a bumpy start but that's okay we're
22s	doing one more day before you clean
23s	whirlwind
25s	sorry wordpath that's the name oh all
27s	over the place this morning feeling good
29s	though oh as always a shame for charity
32s	shout out to my channel is our training
34s	this month last stream of the month for
35s	that charity well the new one in
37s	December if it's your first time here
39s	and you have any questions for me please
41s	feel free to ask some input at last
42s	Epoch game in the question I'll get to
45s	as soon as I can
49s	and uh I totally remember what we were
51s	doing last time
53s	all right we got our resistance ones
55s	here
58s	and this is oh yeah we want the greater
61s	version of this that's what I was gonna
62s	do
63s	yeah because we're doing a lot of boy
64s	damage
67s	but our big goal today is to get an
70s	exalted chess piece
72s	and make a legendary out of our chest
75s	that's our that's our like big goal
77s	today
78s	um I might switch to doing a few
80s	uh
82s	dungeon runs help find a little easier
86s	oh we got our first question here to
88s	start things off looks like a long one
89s	and he plans to redesign the end game
92s	model with map layout system
95s	not before 1.0 no I was thinking
97s	something more specific like when you
99s	interact with it you press a button and
101s	can randomly roll Echoes then go into
103s	the game this way instead of having a
104s	map layout uh this is my opinion would
106s	look better and fit the game uh if this
109s	was implemented
110s	with the other systems too would be
112s	awesome what do you think like can you
113s	make the team members jump out of their
115s	chairs showing them some illegal League
117s	uh no I'm not I don't have any uh
122s	illegal leaks it's funny when you're
123s	actually describing is the old model of
125s	the system
126s	um so we've tried that system actually
128s	we we used to have it
130s	um
130s	and
132s	it was quite good but it didn't quite
135s	have the
137s	um
137s	I don't know like the decision making
139s	the the long-term planning in the end
141s	game system that we wanted out of it uh
144s	so that's why we sort of expanded the
146s	system to what it is now
150s	um I do have a couple leaks for you
152s	today I'm not gonna jump right into it
154s	that early we've got some fun things
155s	today we've got some leaks we've got
159s	um
161s	uh we've got some
165s	Keys we have key Steve away I have two
166s	keys to give away yeah so we're gonna do
168s	our first uh our first live giveaway on
170s	stream
171s	that we've done
174s	which I think is pretty cool
177s	so stick around you might want to keep
179s	if you already have the game you can
180s	still win you can give it to a friend
182s	and uh once multiplayers in you can play
185s	together
190s	which I look down at chat and
191s	immediately see when's Baltimore coming
193s	out so that's appropriate timing
196s	uh thank you very much to Ariel for 19
198s	months in a row that's amazing wow thank
201s	you very much very cool very cool we're
203s	getting close to that two year mark for
205s	some people eh
207s	it's nuts it's nuts to think about that
209s	I've been I've been actively streaming
210s	it for two years it's crazy
212s	gotta keep it going
214s	um as far as when multiplayer is coming
216s	out unfortunately the answer is still
218s	when it's ready
226s	I do have I know there's let's see
230s	do you plan to increase the amount of
232s	wolves you can summon with your true
234s	pack Mike
236s	um tell me so there's uh
240s	probably not
242s	um there's there's a fair bit of volume
244s	like a space that they take up already
246s	you can get quite a few if you push for
248s	it and
251s	um part of the distinction mechanically
253s	that we're trying to have between uh
255s	primalist and acolyte part of it is is
258s	minion quantity generally so it's a lot
261s	easier to get a lot of Minions on
264s	um Accolade than it is on Beastmaster
266s	and The Beastmaster minions are much
268s	more designed to stick around forever
269s	and the act like means they're much more
270s	designed to be a little on the
272s	Expendable side more of a resource than
274s	uh strictly a
276s	a creature in play for you a companion a
279s	minion
283s	I'd say it's unlikely we'll see two
284s	anymore it's possible we might see like
286s	an item at some point that light bumps
288s	that number up one maybe
290s	um but it's it's pretty unlikely that
292s	it's gonna go much higher than it is now
293s	you can get uh the squirrel squirrel you
297s	need to convert your wolves into double
298s	the number of wolves um as squirrels
300s	though so you can do that if you want to
302s	have just sheer volume I know they still
304s	don't look like wolves
305s	um
306s	but maybe there'll be some way to fix
308s	that in the future who knows
316s	how do we want to keep this game when I
319s	start the giveaway there will be a uh
322s	there'll be a queue I'll I'll give I'll
324s	give a little bit of a heads up for that
325s	and um when we do it there'll be a
327s	little bit of time where you can uh
330s	input a specific string into chat and
334s	everyone who does will be automatically
335s	entered and whoever is randomly selected
337s	by a bot will get it
340s	a little bit
341s	there's spoilers no I haven't hit any
343s	spoilers yet don't worry
346s	if it's a despair I'll take it
349s	we take those
356s	uh also I do apologize this was
357s	previously asked but any plans to add
359s	skin color changes to the character in
361s	creation menu
363s	um
364s	uh immediate plans no long-term nebulous
368s	someday plans yes
370s	um
371s	we'd like to we'd like to add a full
373s	character customizer system that's that
375s	it's something that we would like that
376s	would be sweet we'd love to do it
378s	um there's there's nothing started on it
381s	yet
381s	um usually this conversation comes up uh
384s	the the starting points either skin
385s	color or gender are the two common uh
387s	lead-ins to this uh this topic and it's
390s	it's the same answer regardless really
392s	it's um we'd love to it's not something
396s	we uh planned initially it's not
398s	something we are going to do for 1.0
401s	um it's a lot of work and it does like a
405s	lot of people it's a big deal for it
407s	um
410s	but it's just it's just not something
411s	that we have the bandwidth to it would
413s	push the launch of the game and we can't
415s	afford it any more pushes that are not
418s	necessary you know
423s	uh so it's it's it's one of those things
425s	where one day hopefully we can there's a
426s	really big threat actually on this on
429s	the um on the forums that has a lot of a
432s	lot of details on like like why and the
435s	history of it a little bit it's it's
436s	quite lengthy
438s	um and it's more focused around gender
440s	but really it's all one topic for us
445s	foreign
451s	Dev may I ask your name oh my name is
454s	Mike nice to meet you
456s	um humpus from Sweden love your game
459s	thank you very much
462s	we have
465s	a very storied international hockey
467s	history against each other
468s	big hockey fan so that's
473s	and uh our our local team
476s	local the the nearest major city to me
479s	it's not really local even our uh I
482s	haven't really followed hockey too
484s	closely with NHL uh a few years but last
486s	time that I was really big into it like
488s	late high school and early University
491s	um
492s	sadines
493s	oh
495s	oh they're amazing
503s	if anyone out there doesn't watch much
505s	hockey but wants to see two people able
506s	to pass to each other seemingly uh
509s	telepathically
511s	really really well cities just pretty
514s	pretty hockey
521s	all right is there a Dev update that's
522s	coming soon it's gone far too quiet
526s	um yeah okay so we have
531s	got very specific wording for this this
534s	time
535s	in a second
537s	all right
538s	um so we there was a uh a little hint of
543s	uh of of a possibility of communication
546s	uh official like document style
548s	communication I know this is official
550s	communication here but without like it's
552s	not written out it's not like uh hey go
554s	read this post type thing
556s	um it was there was a little hint that
557s	something might be coming out this week
558s	it's it's actually going to be coming
560s	out next week
562s	um
563s	it's not a full Dev blog but we will
565s	have on Tuesday we will be releasing a
568s	detailed timeline with specific dates
570s	for multiple events leading up to and
572s	including multiplayer release with 0.9
575s	um so next week early on next week we're
578s	gonna find out all the juicy details
582s	that people have been asking me for for
584s	a long time
587s	48
599s	so that's that's it will be like a
603s	um there'll be a lot of details in there
605s	but it will not be um strictly a
608s	development details update making sense
611s	I don't think
615s	any combat feels spoiler for today I've
618s	got some I got not uh not the same as
621s	the other combat fuel spoilers that I've
622s	done before but uh I've got something
624s	related
628s	foreign
642s	that line see one of the big things that
644s	we we focus are um
647s	uh like one of our main design pillars
649s	is class identity that's one of the main
651s	things that we're like okay anything we
653s	can do to make these classes feel unique
655s	distinct visually
656s	um mechanically thematically we try and
659s	take those opportunities when we can
662s	um and and really like gameplay comes
664s	first but if we can keep like if we can
667s	have things to make them feel distinct
669s	inside of that constraint of gameplay
670s	comes first
671s	um we will and so having thematic
675s	skeleton wolves is
678s	um it kind of it doesn't change anything
680s	gameplay wise
683s	um so I probably would try not to step
685s	on the toes of the problems that way of
687s	uh of having those skeletal wolves it's
690s	not possible and then there's also like
692s	the visual MCX stuff that that can
694s	happen as well so sometimes if there's
696s	something like that where it's in
697s	universe but it's not quite
701s	um standard in Universe I want to say
703s	that that's that style of things it's a
704s	good candidate for it for a cosmetic ntx
706s	request
708s	uh I would say
712s	I know that one's not in the pipeline
715s	yet just for the record
723s	all right is there a timeline for skin
725s	MTX like like are we talking like
731s	oh goodness skin MTX like skin color MTX
735s	um
737s	oh my goodness Mike
740s	let's equip your gear let's zoom out
742s	let's not be an idiot
745s	um no I I there's nothing that's in
748s	there for for that at the moment
752s	well character customization thing
754s	that's that's an entire
756s	um system that we'd have to develop and
758s	currently that's not one of the like
761s	categories for MTX that we're planning
763s	at the moment um
765s	like these these are different
766s	categories
768s	uh I think that's all the categories
770s	yeah so like
773s	like all the gear slots and then uh two
776s	pets in a back slot I think are the an
779s	end portal not sure what this slide is
781s	actually
782s	that may have got removed
794s	I just thought first time trap hit
795s	window there's no pay to win anything
796s	that's gonna happen
797s	um we're really strictly cosmetic only
799s	on the micro transactions um there are
801s	no micro transactions yet really well I
803s	guess they're supporter packs but
805s	similar
807s	um
808s	but yeah when the cosmetic store opens
810s	it is very strictly cosmetic only
814s	and that includes pay for convenience
815s	items such as
818s	um like stash tabs and things like that
819s	and this is partially because the game
821s	does have a sticker price it's
824s	um a relatively low sticker price
826s	compared to the games that I feel like
828s	are in a similar caliber and and polish
831s	level to what Lassie Puck has become
834s	which is amazing
835s	um
836s	but yeah it's it's because we do have a
838s	sticker price the um the MTX is very
840s	strictly
842s	cosmetic only
844s	or die
853s	any ideas of multiple beta will be up
855s	and will there be any way for like
857s	builds to coexist
859s	like a supporter build to play with
862s	friends oh okay so you're saying so um
864s	so we we know when multiple beta will be
867s	up
868s	um Tuesday so stay tuned for that
870s	information uh and then as far as
873s	support builds to play and multiplayer
875s	with people yeah that sort of thing will
876s	be possible you can already see builds
878s	like that that you can make even even
879s	right now with the with the abilities
880s	that are available
882s	like make a palette and slap these four
885s	abilities on it boom you got a support
887s	class like like
888s	um drop Shield bash and stun things and
891s	you know multi a Smite has a heel
893s	associated with it that's that sort of
894s	like goes unnoticed I think a lot but
896s	you can focus in on that heel and like
899s	get a surprising amount of healing there
901s	it's like you're Smite like there's a
902s	melee um person in your party and you're
904s	casting Smite down around them and it's
905s	healing them constantly like uh it'll
908s	there's cleansing in here to get a
909s	cleanse chance so you can like get rid
911s	of negative effects on them and like
913s	there's that's probably a bad one to do
916s	but
918s	you know like there's definitely already
920s	uh support style like this is very
922s	traditional support style
924s	um stuff in there but there's there's a
926s	lot of abilities that can be focused in
928s	on the support aspects of it and that
930s	can go as far as like there's there's
932s	every class has things like that like um
935s	I've I've played I tried to make sivir
938s	from League of Legends
940s	um the old silver actually because this
942s	is because I'm a dinosaur but I played
944s	originally where it's like
946s	um I was playing so chakram
949s	uh throwing Rogue with um
954s	uh the I was using decoy and something
958s	else to cast basically haste on allies
961s	all the time so I'm just like constantly
963s	Hasting everyone around me we're just
965s	just ripping through everything
968s	um and that's a very supporty style uh
970s	playthrough like I was making sure to
972s	shred as many resistances as possible
974s	and so like it's it's this not support
977s	archetype but you can make it supporty
981s	um for fun and I I think it's I think
983s	it's cool to do so yes the answer is yes
984s	you will be able to do things like that
986s	um the follow-up question usually comes
987s	from this this answer is
989s	um
990s	are they gonna have the Holy Trinity
992s	like there's gonna be content where
993s	you're like gonna have to say like okay
994s	well here's the like tank looking for
996s	group for this boss fight no it's we we
999s	want you to be able to make your own
1000s	party a synergistic party is going to be
1003s	the most important thing so pure GPS
1005s	parties with but that have synergies
1007s	with each other is going to be
1010s	um
1011s	very effective
1013s	um and like builds that are parties that
1015s	do have like that that Holy Trinity like
1017s	tank support and
1019s	um heals uh DPS sorry is uh is going to
1023s	still be very successful as well if like
1025s	you're pointing things out and being
1026s	synergistic
1028s	that's the really important part
1030s	1291 Happy Thanksgiving Happy
1032s	Thanksgiving everyone yet again Time Has
1035s	Come For some questions multiplayer one
1037s	multiplayer will be revealed on Tuesday
1041s	though the timeline for it
1052s	will SC Buck uh before 1.0 get an
1056s	overall character animation recycle no I
1059s	I don't think so I'm
1062s	like we've been slowly updating the
1063s	animations on all sorts of things all
1066s	sorts of characters over the last few
1068s	years and I really like where they are
1069s	right now
1070s	um
1072s	there's definitely there's a couple
1073s	little ones here and there that are the
1075s	standout as being not as awesome every
1077s	once in a while that gets noticed and
1078s	then they get fixed but it's for the
1080s	most part
1082s	pretty great I think
1085s	uh with a way for builds to coexist like
1087s	support against that
1090s	uh I get massive lag spikes on
1092s	usabilities like acid flasks the spikes
1095s	tend to make me die how can I reduce
1096s	this leg issue turn on streamer mode
1097s	that'll help a lot
1100s	um likely what's happening is you
1102s	actually like so I'm guessing I could be
1104s	wrong here but I'm guessing you have a
1105s	very powerful uh CPU
1109s	um
1111s	and it's actually hitting
1115s	I could be wrong with this but I I think
1117s	the situation is probably a pretty
1118s	powerful CPU
1119s	and it's actually causing problems uh
1122s	which sounds ridiculous but it's what's
1124s	happening probably
1126s	um and turning on screen remote in the
1127s	settings will help with that it's in the
1128s	video settings I think
1131s	Graphics stream Remote turn that on
1134s	um
1135s	also question I made some changes to the
1138s	stream settings
1140s	um
1141s	but between last stream in the Stream
1143s	and if anyone was here last time or it
1145s	comes to these regularly uh if you
1148s	notice a difference positive or negative
1150s	please let me know I'd appreciate that
1154s	I'm trying to hone those sentence in
1156s	make it a little bit nicer
1158s	um
1160s	yeah
1164s	we also have done quite a lot of
1166s	performance improvements over the last
1168s	couple years especially over the last
1170s	year and um
1172s	so there will be a lot of performance
1174s	improvements that come in 0.9 as well
1180s	any plan for build closet lockers that's
1184s	like D3 is a switch between your sets no
1187s	we don't intend for that um okay maybe
1189s	for the gear the the big thing about the
1192s	D3 implementation that I'd like to
1193s	distinguish between and and make clear
1195s	that it's like not doing it because of
1197s	this one reason is the skills so when
1199s	you when you do that in D3 it it
1200s	switches all your skills as well
1203s	um your passives your active skills the
1205s	runes you're using all that gets
1206s	switched
1207s	we might do it for gear that's possible
1210s	um it's not something we have planned
1211s	it's not something that's probably gonna
1212s	be implemented it definitely won't be a
1214s	0.9 probably won't be a point or 1.0
1215s	it's possible later on for gear but not
1218s	the skills version of it
1219s	because there's there's a respect cost
1221s	and we'd have to remove the respect
1222s	costs first and we don't intend to do
1224s	that at the moment
1226s	all right what about the skeleton
1228s	warriors on horses for the acolyte
1236s	that's uh I
1239s	we're getting into
1241s	um
1243s	cosmetic stuff at this point
1246s	some like stall horses style thing yeah
1250s	Play Breath of the wild is
1252s	a stall horse pictured Quest
1255s	s there
1259s	all right another question wouldn't it
1261s	be better to play the 0.9 by now
1265s	um even if it's the single player
1266s	performance increase alone sounds like
1267s	they would be worth it
1269s	um if it's feature complete to the point
1270s	that it does not hurt yeah there's the
1272s	problem is that there's like elements of
1275s	that that releasing it early would be
1279s	there's there's problems in there
1281s	unfortunately we just can't do that the
1283s	short answer really like
1284s	I know it sucks
1286s	um
1290s	um I I know it sucks but it's it's just
1292s	not something that we can release as
1295s	like just this without releasing
1297s	um multiple stuff at the same time and
1299s	not cause other problems like we could
1301s	we could turn multiplayer off and just
1303s	make it impossible to connect servers
1304s	and make a build and all that sort of
1306s	stuff
1307s	um
1308s	it delays everything we do that
1316s	uh what will be in the dev Vlog next
1318s	week so just be clear it's not a Dev
1319s	vlog
1322s	I tried I tried not to use the word
1323s	devlog I don't think I did but I may
1324s	have if I did I'm sorry
1326s	um
1328s	and all I can really tell you about that
1329s	is there's gonna be details about
1332s	um
1335s	releasing a detailed timeline with
1337s	specific dates for multiple events
1338s	leading up to it including multiplayer
1339s	release with 0.9
1341s	that's all I got for you on it
1345s	I mean the big piece of it for the most
1347s	people care about I think is it will
1349s	have
1350s	the 0.9 dates
1363s	all right
1366s	oh passion fortnite definitely not
1367s	passionates no
1377s	all right hi small fan of Lassie [ __ ]
1381s	here
1382s	hi Tyrion could you please explain
1384s	Sexton vlogging
1389s	you know we we we decided to remove sex
1391s	to blocking from the game it was just
1392s	we've been getting so many questions
1394s	about it that it was causing problems
1396s	um it was just so we're getting tickets
1398s	all the time
1400s	um and it was just it was too complex of
1402s	a system that we figured we'd simplify
1405s	it and um we've removed the system but
1408s	we're adding in a new item
1410s	um that's that's going to it's going to
1412s	take its place so don't worry about that
1415s	disability the same effects of sex and
1416s	blocking
1418s	um it's it's revolutionary it's called a
1419s	shield
1420s	it's wonderful
1427s	running out of stuff to say to those
1429s	questions
1433s	all right
1435s	uh I would love to see something where I
1437s	can plan a build or use one from online
1439s	so I can see the planned progression
1440s	track for quicker allocation not alt tab
1443s	I think don't choose something like this
1444s	yeah we've talked about something like
1445s	this where you can where about you could
1447s	like import uh like a build in here and
1450s	it would like flag certain nodes and be
1453s	like you're gonna do this you're gonna
1456s	do this
1457s	there's there's sort of a there's a
1459s	danger there
1461s	um and it's it doesn't make it out of
1463s	the question or anything like that it's
1464s	not something that we've got planned
1465s	right now I'll say that
1467s	um and it's it's that
1469s	new players will quite frequently
1474s	um and this kind of happens anyway so
1476s	it's is it worth not bothering that I
1479s	don't know the point is what happens is
1481s	oh quiet for me is resubbed 10 months in
1483s	a row thank you very much quiet welcome
1484s	welcome welcome glad to see you here
1491s	I feel I feel like I haven't talked to
1493s	you in a while
1494s	that's been wants to talk to you
1498s	hey cutie hope all went well for you
1500s	yeah it's been great
1502s	life's been good
1504s	hope you're doing well too was I was
1506s	talking about something I was in the
1507s	middle of something what was I talking
1508s	about
1508s	um oh yeah yeah yeah yeah like uh I
1511s	think built in so you can just be like
1512s	follow a bill like you download a file
1515s	off of some website and it's like maybe
1517s	just a text file and the the game like
1520s	reads this text file or maybe it's like
1522s	built into the game you can share things
1523s	in the game things like that
1525s	um I don't know exactly how it would
1527s	work but having something in here
1529s	or just this where you could plan it out
1532s	yourself even where you'd be like I'm
1533s	gonna plan this this and this and then
1535s	you can as you go you can just fill in
1537s	the ones you've planned and you don't
1538s	have to like rethink about it each time
1540s	or have something else you all have to
1541s	check and
1543s	um there is there's a lot of great
1545s	things about that especially in the
1546s	usability and the accessibility for how
1549s	for for doing this especially if you're
1550s	not playing every day and you forget
1552s	what you plan and things like that so
1553s	you don't make mistakes there's a lot of
1555s	great stuff there the the big downside
1558s	um and the I guess the fear around it is
1560s	that
1561s	um
1562s	you don't you see you end up not reading
1564s	what the nodes are and you end up with
1566s	playing a build where you're like I have
1568s	no idea what this does
1570s	um and it's funny because like right now
1572s	I'm playing this build and I didn't make
1573s	this build someone else made it for me
1574s	for the stream
1576s	um I have no idea what this build does
1577s	and I know I'm not playing it optimally
1580s	because of that
1581s	um and just like going through and like
1582s	having that process of reading all the
1584s	nodes and learning everything you're
1585s	doing is is an important step in
1589s	having a better character being more
1590s	powerful at the game like being better
1592s	at the game having more powerful
1593s	character that a lot of that comes down
1594s	to execution and a lot of that comes
1596s	down to knowledge and understanding of
1597s	what your character is and can do
1599s	um
1600s	so there's there's a little bit of uh
1602s	hesitancy there I want to say
1605s	um
1605s	but at the same time like there's a lot
1607s	of websites to it as well so who knows
1610s	um it is a good suggestion I do really
1612s	like the idea of it
1620s	okay
1621s	is Cosmetics paid to get that would be a
1624s	huge turn off man not sure how it will
1627s	be but maybe unlock customers through
1629s	endgame activities
1631s	um we we do want to have the primary
1634s	means of gathering Cosmetics to be
1636s	through our to the shop the ntx shop
1639s	um
1640s	there will be we do have plans for ways
1644s	to
1645s	um to to obtain specific MTX through
1648s	certain other methods
1652s	um
1652s	so whether that's like
1655s	um
1657s	like some of those those could be
1658s	in-game things those could be out of
1660s	game things even too
1662s	um
1663s	they can be things like oh you came in
1665s	the top 100 of this latter season
1669s	um therefore you get this special uh
1673s	cosmetic footprints that follow behind
1674s	you as you walk you know so something
1676s	like that
1677s	um
1678s	so like for basically achievement
1680s	recognition
1681s	Cosmetics is is something that we do
1684s	want to do and add in
1685s	um
1687s	but the primary way will be like most
1689s	Cosmetics will just be
1691s	you know
1693s	you gotta go to the MTX shop I've not
1696s	been paying attention to which
1698s	uh modifiers I've been taking here and
1700s	I've just noticed a huge Spike
1707s	enemies getting frenzy and he's been hit
1709s	oh when did I do that one
1719s	it's getting scary
1724s	as we get further up from the center it
1725s	also gets more dangerous so I might have
1728s	to I might just skush my way back to the
1729s	center of touch here
1731s	um yes uh Xander the Fleming on Reddit
1733s	it was mentioned that she was hoping to
1735s	get a communication update out this week
1737s	is it still planners to delete to next

2195s	here well you had an extra speed mode in
2198s	the menu settings like Titan Quest
2199s	proceed for the anniversary edition
2201s	extra speed mode
2204s	ah
2206s	probably not I did not know titanco's
2208s	had speed modes I haven't played it much
2209s	though I played the switch like
2211s	re-release of it which was pretty sweet
2212s	actually
2214s	go libraries
2216s	if you have a local library that uh
2218s	rents games surprisingly awesome way to
2221s	try out games highly recommend
2231s	it's hard sometimes they only have like
2233s	one copy and there's like huge wait list
2235s	I know I've gotten on like I'm like
2236s	number 150th on the wait list
2243s	all right I don't mean to release it
2245s	just play it on stream oh play it on
2248s	stream yeah yeah yeah I I really want to
2250s	do that and um we're actually we're
2252s	actually pretty close to being able to
2252s	do that I think
2254s	um so I I think uh
2256s	I think we'll be seeing
2257s	I think we'll be seeing 0.9 streams soon
2261s	I think
2263s	I hope it's my goal it's a dream
2270s	I'm assuming this meant to say ever ever
2272s	regretted picking up picking Unity over
2273s	unreal for an arpg no
2276s	there's a lot of things to go to this
2277s	question I've answered it so many times
2279s	but no just short answer is no I think
2281s	Unity was the right choice
2286s	uh hey do you feel the Africa damage
2288s	taken on Mana before life is balanced I
2290s	was thinking about their crafting a
2292s	flame Reef build and since man is so
2294s	limited I'm afraid it's not something
2295s	viable anyone tried something on like
2297s	yeah there's there's lots of great stuff
2299s	there's builds that use that for sure
2301s	um
2302s	it can work you can't take the like all
2305s	the Mana cost increasers at the same
2307s	time which a lot of they're really
2310s	tempting to take is quite often they're
2311s	just like damage up manamore and you're
2312s	like or no cooldown Mana more and you're
2314s	like oh you can take it
2316s	um you can't really take those with that
2318s	um but it works
2325s	opening
2328s	uh do you ever think about moving game
2330s	files over not real engine five no I'm
2332s	not doing that uh any muscle updates you
2334s	guys taking quite a long time it is
2335s	taking a while
2336s	um no details uh that I can share really
2338s	we're still doing CT testing it's
2340s	working great
2342s	um
2343s	you know things are things are Trucking
2344s	moving along
2352s	all right hi it experienced accountant
2356s	and long-term Bernie Madoff admire a
2358s	year
2359s	um how is the financial side of the
2361s	thing looking are you bootstrapped or
2363s	debt financed or even VC backed I mean
2366s	are you net positive in cash flows or
2368s	will you add loot boxes later to get
2370s	sick returns
2372s	um
2375s	that's a nice helmet um
2378s	we're we're doing fine that's all I can
2381s	really say on the matter I'm not
2384s	um super in deep on all the financials I
2386s	don't really have a lot of that
2387s	information to show I know it's a bit of
2388s	a joke mix it with a question there
2390s	um but we're I know we're doing fine and
2393s	um
2394s	the question that came up I think last
2396s	week was is there any chance of like
2398s	Financial issues causing a release not
2400s	to happen or anything like that no we've
2401s	got runway for for well through launch
2403s	no problem so we're fine
2411s	all right spring and Spring Festival oh
2414s	yeah
2415s	I I always wanted to like non-world
2420s	um festivals and and holidays so like
2423s	having in-game versions of uh holidays
2428s	that are like they don't have to be
2429s	related to anything in the real world at
2431s	all but just yeah I really like things
2433s	like that so
2434s	I like it
2436s	will there be any other class locked
2438s	weapons like Bo I mean uh so Bo may or
2441s	may not stay class locked long term
2443s	um and it is possible that we could add
2446s	more weapons that were designed
2448s	primarily to be used by one class and
2450s	might even be non-functional in other
2452s	classes it may even be locked still um
2454s	so all those things are possible
2457s	not about chest
2475s	well it's the nightbot stuff
2491s	oh I just saw Emmy said that they they
2493s	have the game already so we can roll it
2494s	again well you know what I mean in that
2496s	case I'm just uh
2500s	oh if you want one I'll give you one
2502s	but um I'm gonna give the one that I did
2505s	have marked for you for
2507s	the person that I actually rolled
2509s	initially
2531s	I'm gonna figure this out one second I'm
2532s	sorry here we go
2534s	yeah
2535s	why can't I whisper come on
2540s	dream labs
2542s	how you mock me so
2554s	there we go
2567s	sorry I'm just recording this
2577s	foreign
2601s	version of it that we have coming out
2604s	4.9
2607s	this is the temple Guardian
2609s	uh that like statue that comes alive and
2612s	takes you or tries to
2619s	are you happy with the planned release
2621s	date of the multiplayer patch I mean I I
2624s	think everyone involved um myself ever
2627s	on the team everyone who's playing the
2628s	game would have wanted it to be sooner
2632s	um like would have wanted to already be
2633s	out by now you know so things are like
2635s	there's there's a small amount of
2637s	disappointment there but I am really
2639s	happy with
2640s	um how this is all gonna work out and
2643s	like
2646s	having gone through this and if you told
2649s	me two years ago this is what would
2651s	happen I'd be a little upset
2653s	um now I'm not upset about it at all I'm
2655s	quite happy
2657s	um
2658s	I I think there's
2660s	I think it's all gonna be worth it and I
2661s	think that there's gonna be a really
2663s	nice
2664s	uh it's gonna be a great game and that's
2666s	the most important things is we're not
2667s	building this game just for launch day
2669s	we're building this game for years from
2671s	now to still be something that we're
2673s	playing having fun and enjoying and
2676s	you know one day I can show my kid that
2679s	sort of thing you know
2682s	uh when his Skin's gonna release and
2684s	what it's patch
2686s	um I think this is like
2688s	like when's ntx coming and when is the
2690s	pack next match going to be so the same
2692s	time and I don't have a release date for
2694s	you just yet

2727s	for combat and art will those be in
2729s	point nine will somehow come later on no
2730s	no everything I've been showing is 0.9
2733s	all the stuff that's on there's there's
2735s	a sweet thread on our forums that has
2737s	like just all the spoilers compiled into

2744s	all that all by themselves
2746s	um
2747s	and uh all those things are 0.9
2753s	uh will multiply just be multiplayer or
2755s	will it be extra content for older
2756s	players to play I'll be a bit stale so
2759s	asking if something could look forward
2759s	to yeah there's there's a ton of stuff
2761s	coming in the 0.9 patch it's not just
2764s	multiplayer So like
2766s	um the a lot of the developers that are
2769s	like the coders I want to say have been
2771s	working really hard making uh like
2773s	building the back-end system for
2774s	multiplayer and have been uh like
2777s	building up the front end systems for it
2778s	and like um lots of design work that's
2780s	gone into that and changing certain
2782s	things to work in multiplayer nicely and
2783s	all sort of stuff but the
2785s	um all all of the like game design and
2789s	um our the entire art team has has not
2793s	stopped
2794s	um at the same time so there's still a
2795s	lot of other things
2798s	um that are going to be coming and
2799s	there's there's a lot of there's a lot
2800s	of little things
2802s	um like a lot of little things that that
2804s	initially like you say to them you're
2805s	like okay yeah great but it's a
2807s	surprisingly large impact on on getting
2809s	that overall quality and overall just
2811s	fun feeling up uh so I guess what I'm
2814s	talking about mostly here is little
2815s	things even just like there's an entire
2817s	past been done to every single skill and
2820s	every single skill node and passive node
2822s	in the entire game
2823s	um to make sure it's working and to make
2825s	sure that the like the the wording is
2827s	clear and consistent and so just a lot
2829s	of those like hey does this work with
2831s	that and like I don't know if this
2833s	node's actually doing anything questions
2834s	will hopefully just go away which is
2836s	great
2837s	um there's a lot of nodes that we found
2839s	in that I don't mentioned this last week
2841s	too but there's a lot of nodes that just
2842s	like weren't scaling with the number of
2844s	points invested
2846s	um so just like a single points the same
2848s	as the full Five Points
2850s	um
2851s	and uh so it's like those those four
2854s	points we're just doing nothing
2857s	um so some some builds those get Buffs
2859s	from that in general which is which is
2861s	funny
2862s	um
2863s	but yes there is also uh you know
2865s	there's there's a little bit more
2867s	uniques coming there'll be um like
2869s	updates and changes to skills
2871s	um they'll be some should be some new
2873s	skills at that point too
2875s	um you know there's there's a lot of
2877s	stuff that's fair nice the second one is
2880s	done
2880s	two back-to-back actually nice and yeah
2884s	so there will be stuff for training
2885s	players as well
2888s	also just like multiplayer does change
2891s	the Dynamics a surprisingly large amount
2902s	all right maybe put the info that news
2904s	is coming next week into the title or
2905s	commands people can just dive and get
2907s	that info yeah it's true I probably
2909s	should do that
2911s	this is why I'm a developer that streams
2913s	and not a streamer that develops
2921s	can I
2923s	can I just do this
2927s	text
2941s	which is the November 29th
2962s	can I just do this can I just
2965s	oh goodness me
2967s	oh I can't believe you've done this
2970s	oh no
2979s	give me just give me ffff
2984s	there we go
2988s	why is it why is it so tiny
2993s	is that even there
2997s	I'm trying to put text on the screen
2999s	it's just like
3002s	not having it
3017s	uh
3020s	I'll do I'll try and do it in the next
3022s	thing
3053s	all right
3067s	all right let's leave another key coming
3069s	which is great
3070s	uh what's gonna be first class build
3072s	when you play point nine and Y ah great
3075s	question
3076s	um this is interesting because I have
3077s	been playing multiplayer a bunch already
3080s	um I like I've just been having so much
3083s	fun with the Rogue and multiplayer so I
3084s	like I want to just say that because
3086s	that's what I'm playing the most I'm
3087s	just having so much fun with it
3089s	um but I kind of want to try something
3091s	that's like
3092s	just weird and probably shouldn't work
3095s	uh to kind of mess with my friends when
3097s	I'm actually playing with them today
3099s	um
3100s	at the same time I'll probably be
3102s	something supporty honestly it'll
3104s	probably like a support acolyte be like
3106s	yeah
3112s	Steve is coming in clutch with an
3114s	additional key we've got we got this
3115s	guys we can we can survive with Mike's
3119s	incompetence here no problem
3122s	people to bail him out
3125s	lovely lovely
3136s	all right Amy where are you you're
3138s	getting the key whether you like it or
3139s	not you can do what you want with it
3148s	foreign
3154s	I hope you're there still
3162s	got one more for later don't worry
3179s	all right all right let's get some more
3182s	questions I'm I'm slacking on the
3183s	question so I apologize
3187s	wait we'll multiply delete my old
3189s	characters no however you won't be able
3191s	to play your old characters in
3192s	multiplayer which I know it's a fine
3194s	distinction so you'll see a little
3195s	player offline characters offline but
3197s	you won't be able to play your offline
3198s	characters online and currently all the
3200s	characters you've made are offline
3201s	characters
3202s	so if you want to play online 1.9
3205s	releases you will need to start new
3207s	characters
3214s	which I know is a
3217s	fine distinction at best don't forget to
3220s	put last Epoch game in the question if
3222s	you're gonna ask it so I know to answer
3224s	please
3225s	um and will it ever release on Xbox
3227s	that's possible it's another one of
3229s	those like oh man we'd love to release
3230s	on Xbox one day
3232s	um a console release in general is
3234s	something we are working towards it is
3236s	not an immediate plan it's not gonna be
3239s	a 1.0 release feature
3242s	um oh
3243s	oh it's actually pretty decent oh did we
3246s	do it I think we did it
3252s	Goss
3254s	um it's actually yeah
3257s	oh my goodness
3259s	check
3262s	check the hole in my foot ah
3269s	it's not gross at all
3272s	right is it useful to let everyone know
3275s	where you are in the development uh of
3278s	dragonflight
3281s	uh with different builds hit
3284s	we're transitioning away from spending
3286s	the majority of our time on the design
3288s	iteration of new talent trees
3290s	and now we're primarily focused on
3292s	fixing bugs tuning the game
3297s	huh
3302s	oops wrong chat okay
3306s	I'm like doesn't seem to be about our
3310s	game I don't think
3312s	we'll see okay we're going straight to
3318s	um
3320s	there we go
3322s	full steam ahead
3324s	activate
3327s	you Mr giveaway you missed one of them
3329s	there's gonna be another one don't worry
3331s	don't worry ooh can you talk about new
3333s	skills coming um I don't have any
3335s	details on possible new skills coming
3337s	yet sorry
3349s	what uh what level is 41 oh we could do
3351s	an easy one
3355s	I'm weak and scared
3362s	can I like heal myself for a little bit
3364s	here just
3371s	there we go
3373s	no problem
3377s	okay okay what have I missed sorry I'm
3380s	like oh well if you're not gonna show up
3382s	on time what's the point Aaron huh huh
3387s	you missed a giveaway you missed you
3390s	missed a leak
3392s	you basically missed the whole stream
3393s	nah
3394s	I don't know if I'm behind him it's
3396s	probably uh you probably didn't miss any
3399s	of that
3401s	uh use 32 plus font on the notepad what
3404s	do I typically throw in window capture
3406s	new window capture yeah okay that's a
3408s	good that's a good idea actually
3410s	I just like there's a text thing in
3412s	streamlabs and it's just
3414s	like not showing up
3424s	ah I've realized my mistake
3428s	I've I've detected the problem
3433s	I can fix this
3436s	I can fix this I I'm just a noob
3442s	oh look at that so easy
3445s	it was that easy
3461s	there we go how's that
3476s	all right
3478s	I may have typed the font of the text
3480s	that I wanted to say in the
3483s	in the like text box in the that's the
3485s	name of the source that I was adding
3487s	instead of actually typing it in the
3488s	text box field so I'm like make it huge
3491s	and it's like what text there's no text
3492s	here
3494s	but we figured it out
3496s	all right are you aware of the bug that
3498s	happens with loot filter probably with
3500s	the emphasize feature yeah
3502s	I am aware of that uh I think it's fixed
3506s	you're pretty big one not to get fixed
3507s	I'm pretty sure it's fixed
3511s	if it's not it's on the list
3518s	what's up fellas what up
3521s	hello any plans for reworking Shaman
3524s	um like
3527s	the
3529s	horror class mechanics and fantasy is I
3532s	think really strong and I don't want to
3535s	take anything away from that but I do
3537s	think that there is room for
3539s	are a necessity for having some pretty
3542s	big reworks on uh specific skills in
3545s	that are that are Shaman forward some
3547s	focused and um
3552s	maybe not a rework but just like a buff
3554s	on a couple of them it's less of a
3556s	Reaper more of a buff on a on a couple
3558s	skills and then a rework on one so it's
3560s	not I wouldn't say a shaman rework
3563s	um but it's a big enough change that it
3565s	will end up feeling pretty fresh so
3567s	yes but actually no I don't know
3576s	um
3586s	let's get into the next one what is this
3590s	full of weapons yeah I mean it's no we
3592s	won't we'll take it
3594s	uh was the price increase on Steam
3597s	Community okay I was the price increase
3599s	on Steam communicated been waiting for
3601s	sale Elliott went up in price and steam
3603s	Autumn sale
3604s	um so we did not increase the price
3606s	first off
3609s	um the region specific price so steam
3612s	has a an option where you could put
3614s	region specific pricing on and uh We've
3618s	turned that on and there is
3620s	um usually the the US pricing is the
3623s	most expensive pricing there's usually a
3626s	couple that are a little bit more
3627s	um
3628s	and so there's a couple regions where it
3631s	is more expensive in it's very rare
3634s	um
3636s	and what happened recently was uh steam
3640s	changed a lot of the
3644s	um Regional pricing scaling
3648s	for for for all of its games across all
3650s	of steam
3652s	um
3654s	and
3656s	honestly we did like it just it just
3659s	sort of happened and we just got all of
3661s	our steam pricing all of our regional
3662s	scene pricing set to default which is
3664s	just whatever steam says is the right
3665s	thing we just say okay thanks Dean
3667s	that's cool
3668s	um so basically what this does is it
3669s	makes it cheaper for people that are in
3671s	countries where it's a little bit um
3673s	where if it's more expensive generally
3675s	to buy games like this it kind of scales
3677s	the price to match the local economy a
3678s	little bit better
3681s	um and I'm I'm really not sure of all
3684s	the details on why this change happened
3686s	or like what what happened with it or
3688s	anything like that but there were there
3690s	was some reason why
3692s	um a lot of regions had their you know a
3694s	lot of regions at least some regions had
3696s	their prices adjusted
3698s	um relative to the the the normal price
3701s	and now so we didn't actually change the
3704s	price of the game but in a lot of
3705s	regions the price did go up because of
3708s	the seems going now we do have the
3709s	opportunity to override that pricing uh
3712s	in in regions if we if we want
3715s	um I don't know if that's been discussed
3717s	or planned or anything like that but um
3720s	I I think what it is is we're just like
3723s	thing
3724s	um
3725s	like we're because we're still selling
3727s	it for like on our website it's full
3728s	price no matter where you are
3730s	um
3731s	which is a little trickier to do the the
3734s	region stuff on on a website like that
3735s	because steam just handles it all so
3737s	we've kind of just said hey steam
3738s	whatever you think's best
3740s	um
3741s	and we I mean it's it's a really
3742s	unfortunate situation
3744s	um I kind of hope it just gets
3745s	self-corrected but
3747s	um I don't think it will and I'm not
3749s	sure if there's anything we should do
3751s	about it I it's kind of this one's sort
3753s	of above my pay grade you know foreign
3757s	but that's the situation on what happens
3766s	what was the question
3769s	yeah and we're we're trying to avoid too
3773s	many sales before we we go to 0.9
3780s	if we don't get like four exalted
3782s	weapons I'm gonna be just
3785s	totally miffed
3788s	thank you
3789s	uh hey I was wondering how does ravaging
3791s	Aura from void Cleaves scale also is it
3794s	safe to assume that sub skill scales the
3795s	same as the main skill if not explicitly
3797s	stated otherwise
3799s	um no it's not safe to say that
3801s	um
3802s	if it's like attribute scaling yes
3804s	because and this is the part where I'm
3807s	gonna say something everyone's gonna go
3809s	what that doesn't make any sense no way
3812s	it says it right there
3814s	um sub skills do not use attributes to
3817s	scale ever
3820s	um
3821s	so let's go and avoid please and find
3823s	rap Genora
3827s	down here because I have it
3829s	um so if you hold alt on a skill node
3832s	that has a reference to another skill it
3836s	doesn't have to be a sub skill but
3836s	reference to another skill
3838s	um it should bring up a tooltip that
3840s	will uh that will tell you this
3841s	information and
3843s	um so scaling tags it has void spell
3845s	damage over time instant cast now it
3847s	won't actually bring up the attribute
3849s	scaling here which is interesting we
3851s	probably did that intentionally
3853s	um
3856s	so this is the skeleton so it scales
3858s	with boy damage spell damage damage over
3860s	time
3861s	um and if there's something instead like
3862s	instant cast spells do more damage it
3864s	would scale with that too but there
3865s	isn't that
3866s	um
3867s	and as far as attribute scaling goes all
3870s	sub skills inherent inherit their
3873s	attribute scaling from the parent skill
3876s	um and this is different than triggered
3878s	abilities
3879s	and I know it seems like it's really
3881s	similar but it is
3882s	a little bit different but the
3885s	um
3886s	so the attribute scaling that it gets it
3888s	gets from
3889s	boy group so void cleave has
3893s	um increased damage from strength and
3894s	vitality so ravaging Aura so when when
3897s	you use void cleave uh the game goes
3901s	okay what's your strength What's Your
3902s	vitality we're gonna give
3905s	um for me right now I'm gonna get 272
3907s	increase damage 272 increase damage on
3911s	void cleave and so the ability of void
3913s	cleave gets the stat 272 increase damage
3915s	the exact same is if you had an item
3917s	that just said 272 increase damage
3920s	um and then any sub skills that void
3922s	clean procs carries the stats that
3924s	voiclib already has
3926s	um and so one of those stats is 272
3928s	increased damage so in a way it inherits
3931s	in a way it scales off strength and
3932s	vitality the ravaging aura does
3934s	um but really it's just inheriting the
3936s	increased damage that void clip already
3937s	has
3944s	see that purple chess piece oh we'll
3946s	show it we'll show it as soon as I'm
3947s	going to use it
3952s	impossible nothing's impossible
3970s	okay I should get a question here
3975s	uh getting things quite old start up
3977s	might be an issue with my end but if not
3979s	is a part of the optimization thing to
3981s	come
3981s	um if you've got there's not a lot of
3983s	startup optimizations happening oh come
3985s	on get out of there
3988s	um there's not a lot of startup
3989s	optimizations happening there are some
3990s	things that we're trying to do to to
3992s	stream like that a little bit better uh
3994s	we've been moving to
3996s	um
3997s	uh different asset
3999s	storage systems internally that that
4002s	make the loading a little bit faster
4005s	oh I did it slightly too early
4011s	that's where you guys can just show Noob
4013s	at your screen
4014s	would not be wrong
4018s	um
4027s	looks close
4032s	use anomalies get the Buffs oh yeah why
4035s	was I not doing that
4037s	well there's nothing use anomaly on but
4039s	there there is
4041s	it doesn't matter
4046s	um if you've got your system on an SSD
4049s	the startup time should be relatively
4052s	decent if you're still having bad times
4054s	starting up with an SSD
4057s	um
4060s	there might be there might be something
4062s	else going on there
4063s	um hopefully start time improvements
4064s	will help but there's not a lot coming
4066s	in that category
4067s	sorry trying to answer questions while
4069s	doing this and uh
4081s	I failed you I'm sorry it's okay I
4084s	forgive you
4085s	I've detected the problem pepcat yep
4089s	it's except you've got the K and the C
4091s	backwards in the pepcac there llama
4094s	oh yeah I have an actual question uh
4097s	more often than not when you travel
4098s	through time you get the Stargate
4100s	animation yeah Stargate
4103s	um then a loading screen I'm sorry it
4105s	doesn't coincide with the whole loading
4107s	screen great question it actually used
4108s	to
4109s	um however they're doing full
4112s	asynchronous loading this is one of the
4113s	things that's really hard doing Unity
4115s	doing full asynchronous loading
4117s	um is really hard and you get this
4119s	stuttering that happens
4121s	um and we so we had that Visual and the
4123s	stuttering was happening and people were
4125s	like overwhelmingly we were just getting
4127s	reports all the time like my game's
4129s	crashing the stutter happens and if it
4131s	was like all to F4 immediately or it was
4132s	a little less stable they stuttered
4133s	they'd all Tab and then it actually
4135s	would crash and it's just like all these
4137s	problems that were happening and we just
4138s	as soon as we took that out and made it
4140s	be two loading screens which feels not
4142s	great
4143s	um like saw like crashes went down
4145s	reports went down maybe it's like better
4147s	now we can go back to it but
4151s	that's what happens
4154s	okay
4155s	is there anything here we act that's
4157s	actually nice
4159s	um
4163s	anything we want
4167s	the water tension is kind of useless but
4170s	uh the healing effect is kind of meh
4171s	sounds pretty good there
4174s	melee cold damage on the staff not bad
4184s	great
4185s	not great that's okay though we already
4187s	have what we want coming into this
4191s	okay
4194s	oh our nose is gonna go away from it
4196s	it's gonna flip myself over here
4199s	um
4202s	we're gonna craft this because we're
4203s	gonna make a legendary titanars
4208s	uh are you friends with the devs at GGG
4211s	I'd like to say so I I don't think I
4214s	know them well enough to be considered
4215s	friends
4217s	um but I I friendly with you know we've
4220s	a couple calls with a few of them and
4222s	it's been like
4225s	just like sitting sitting around talking
4228s	about games with old friends that's
4230s	that's what it felt like when we when we
4231s	did talk to them
4233s	um
4235s	so I like not specifically but yes
4242s	okay let's I think we chaos this
4245s	and just try and get something else we
4246s	don't care about Shield rush at all but
4248s	we don't have enough it's too high of a
4250s	tear to reliably
4252s	um pull it down
4254s	and we don't want to just nuke a random
4256s	one off of here
4257s	because I really do like the boy damage
4260s	taking this physical and just like get
4261s	rid of your Void res
4267s	okay
4269s	yeah okay
4271s	uh okay let's try to
4275s	seal Health regeneration
4277s	love it
4279s	uh let's try and discover something new
4282s	love it armor and armor okay Armor's
4286s	great
4289s	armor is very strong
4295s	so we just get two crits in a row
4303s	ah that was great
4306s	that was great
4313s	should we should we should we split it
4314s	just just so we have a backup
4317s	just in case
4320s	I thought it's not that amazing but
4323s	I'm reckless
4325s	all right here we go
4331s	make our Titan heart
4336s	really just anything other than reflect
4338s	is fine
4341s	anything other than the reflect
4345s	will NTA be lifted around the time of
4347s	0.9 release so we can play playing party
4350s	builds with friends
4351s	um I don't know when the NDA will be
4353s	lifted I suspect it'll be before 0.9
4357s	that'd be my guess
4362s	all right I missed one here sorry uh I
4365s	missed a couple questions oh no no I
4367s	asked this very long time ago uh but is
4369s	it possible to make Diablo one style
4371s	grandfather's swords where it's a
4373s	two-hander that acts like a one-hander
4375s	um
4377s	there's there's a lot of things in our
4379s	system that make it very difficult to
4383s	um
4386s	the way that the handedness of your
4389s	swords is set up it doesn't actually
4390s	know what the sword is or what abilities
4393s	it has so it's really tricky to do it's
4395s	not impossible it'd be a lot a fair few
4397s	changes that would have to happen and
4399s	it's something that could happen I
4401s	suspect if we were to do something like
4403s	that it would coincide as a mechanic
4405s	with a new Mastery class that made a lot
4408s	of sense to have it
4410s	that would be my guess
4412s	uh are there any plans to increase
4414s	options for UI customization or moving
4416s	frames to different areas I only have
4418s	one eye I prefer to keep things further
4419s	left of my screen to help ease eye
4421s	strain wow cool
4423s	um
4425s	we don't have any plans for that right
4426s	now unfortunately
4428s	um all right we are kind of lacking in
4430s	the accessibility options category at
4432s	the moment we do have plans to beef
4433s	those up
4434s	um however we don't have
4437s	uh any plans for UI customization like
4440s	that just yet
4442s	um I do think it's an interesting thing
4444s	to do there's a there's so many subtle
4446s	things that go into the UI customization
4448s	that's
4449s	um that's really important like uh yes
4455s	of course I got so lucky with this one
4457s	it had to be bad right
4460s	okay little little things here
4464s	I need to put myself back over here
4466s	um little things so we have this uh view
4469s	materials and this opens here like this
4471s	and see it lines up here so you can see
4472s	your whole inventory and all of these
4474s	because you open it from your inventory
4477s	um now if you have this open
4481s	um and you view your materials see what
4482s	lines up on this edge here so you can
4484s	see your whole crafting panel in this so
4486s	it's it's a really subtle difference but
4488s	because I don't have a ultrawide monitor
4490s	it has to pick sort of one side or the
4492s	other to scooch over too
4495s	um
4496s	and it's if you have your crafting
4498s	window open it actually just forces it
4499s	to the crafting window because it
4500s	figures that's what you're doing
4501s	primarily
4502s	um and and there's a lot of little
4504s	subtle things like that
4507s	um that are really tricky to do when you
4509s	have when you start letting people move
4511s	stuff around in their UI and there's
4513s	lots of room for
4515s	um problems and so the the like
4517s	anecdotal thing that I I like to mention
4519s	when this comes up is
4521s	um I was playing this is
4523s	six months a year ago now I was playing
4525s	a um
4528s	a version of wow not the normal wow but
4530s	it was like the the raid finder tool was
4533s	was in it and I had put uh UI mod on the
4537s	on the map that uh that cover like the
4539s	circle for this UI for this other mod
4541s	that like lets you activate the settings
4543s	for that mod was perfectly covering the
4546s	raid finder button and I could not find
4548s	the rangefinder button uh which is also
4551s	the like button that lets you
4553s	portal to people in the the part in the
4558s	dungeon I was just trying it was like
4559s	level 20 and trying to do a dungeon for
4560s	the first time in like 10 years and I'm
4563s	like bye I can't remember how to do this
4565s	and and I just like couldn't find it so
4567s	I asked people probably like guys I
4568s	can't figure out how to portal to you
4569s	and they just like laughed me out of the
4571s	group I'm like yep that that's warranted
4573s	fair enough I get it like whatever it
4575s	used to be
4577s	top eight in the world ranked warlock
4579s	but you know whatever
4582s	it's like an hour anyways
4585s	um
4586s	point is
4589s	there's pitfalls with allowing you like
4591s	a sensation and we're just we're
4592s	fighting it's probably not robust enough
4593s	to add those in just yet
4597s	um
4602s	goes on the grounds bye bye
4606s	so I threw it on the ground because I'm
4608s	an adult
4612s	all right moving on oh would you be able
4618s	to play your offline characters really
4620s	offline like without internet connection
4621s	because right now it requires login we
4623s	do have plans for offline offline
4625s	offline offline offline
4627s	um that is actually set up and
4629s	functioning in our internal builds right
4630s	now where you can not have an internet
4632s	connection it will still let you in to
4633s	play offline characters offline
4636s	all right are you adding new totem
4639s	skills to improve totem play style
4641s	overall I don't see much Synergy between
4643s	those
4645s	um that are in the game to be wrong
4646s	there are some builds that could be
4648s	better in your opinion yeah
4651s	um
4652s	there there's
4654s	there's a bit of lacking when it comes
4656s	to
4659s	um
4660s	sorry
4664s	this is this uh tiny little key
4668s	that it does that
4677s	oh no that's
4681s	not okay
4694s	turn zombie
4696s	I don't fly around here
4699s	too much
4701s	um all right do you think there'll be
4704s	any oh it's interesting uh I told him
4706s	it's time totem Synergy that's what I'm
4707s	doing so I got distracted uh totem
4709s	Synergy yes that's that's kind of what I
4711s	was trying to hey didn't touch on a
4714s	little bit here I was mentioning about
4716s	um even about reworks but like
4718s	adjustments and things like that yeah
4720s	there's I think there's there's also
4722s	there's a there's ability missing still
4724s	in Shaman I think I'm pretty sure Shaman
4727s	still wants an ability pretty high up
4728s	one correctly that's nice
4733s	um
4734s	so like whether that's whether that's
4736s	and I think I think you're right I think
4737s	totems aren't underrepresented uh
4741s	Synergy style and also just ability
4743s	style in general there's there's
4744s	probably could do with another totem in
4746s	the game or an ability that that
4748s	specifically synergizes with totems
4751s	um something like that so like there's
4752s	still there's that that missing ability
4754s	and like a tempest strike rework that
4757s	that that final Shaman ability and maybe
4760s	like a little a couple Buffs the storm
4762s	totem maybe and like you you've
4765s	basically I wouldn't call that a shaman
4766s	rework because like the the core
4768s	functionality stays the same and the
4770s	core like theming saves the same but
4772s	like
4773s	it would be of substantial like
4778s	um usability and power increase I think
4781s	that'll maybe call a rework I don't know
4784s	these terms are so fluid and so like
4786s	where's the line on them that it's it's
4788s	hard to Define them sometimes but yeah
4790s	you know hopefully hopefully that
4793s	answers it
4794s	uh do you think there'll be any Nerfs
4795s	from all the skill passes the team's
4797s	been doing anything major they're
4798s	definitely be nervous it's always nerves
4800s	um
4802s	uh anything like really dramatic I don't
4805s	I don't think there's anything that I've
4806s	seen so far that was really dramatic
4808s	um
4810s	I I don't think you'll see any builds
4813s	that were like able to do empowered
4815s	models relatively easily
4818s	um Vanishing
4820s	hopefully that swages any fears
4823s	on the topic
4835s	all the cooldowns were Mike all the cool
4838s	dance for Mike
4841s	it's actually interesting we do cooldown
4842s	recovery as well um something that most
4844s	people might not realize or maybe you do
4846s	I don't know but
4848s	um
4848s	cooldown recovery is not really a stat
4852s	in the game
4853s	and like we worked a little bit
4855s	differently because it actually
4857s	functions a little bit differently than
4858s	typical cooldown recovery
4861s	and that's why sometimes I'll like break
4863s	out the acronym I cards increase
4866s	cooldown recovery speed because it's
4869s	it's a little different
4870s	I want to be in here helmets
4874s	yeah fair enough
4876s	all right
4878s	uh do you think there'll be any uh
4883s	well last Epoch be remastered in 2025 no
4886s	we'll keep releasing new content well
4888s	through 2025 though uh how tempting is
4890s	it to buff the builds you play the most
4892s	uh
4895s	honestly it's
4897s	I think I think there's
4899s	a temptation to buff builds that you
4902s	want to see function and that don't
4904s	quite function nicely so uh example I'll
4907s	give of this is something that I've been
4909s	I've been playing like you mentioned
4910s	I've been playing Rogue a lot
4911s	multiplayer
4912s	um and I've been trying to make ballista
4914s	work in like leveling and getting into
4916s	end game is just like an ability that
4917s	you're like I'm gonna be a Ballista
4919s	Rogue as like my main thing and like
4922s	I'll do other stuff at the same time but
4923s	like that's my main primary thing I'm
4925s	gonna like do ballista and like dark
4927s	quiver because there's some synergies
4928s	there and then like I'll get like a bow
4930s	attack to kind of go with it that I'll
4932s	use to like apply ailments heavily or
4934s	something like that to like make my
4935s	ballista trigger better and and like you
4937s	do things like that you find synergies
4939s	of like you're shredding armor or
4940s	shredding Fire Res so that your ballista
4942s	does more and there's like little things
4944s	like that you're trying to do and it
4945s	just doesn't really work
4948s	um
4949s	and so there's there's a temptation to
4952s	and I think actually a good argument for
4954s	a reason to buff that build
4956s	um or above that situation and I think
4958s	it's important to try and
4961s	um
4962s	you know not go overboard in a situation
4964s	like that
4965s	um
4967s	but if there's something cool that
4968s	you're trying to do that doesn't work
4970s	other people are I think likely trying
4972s	to do that cool thing too
4987s	all right continuing the sub skill
4989s	scaling question if you take the
4991s	fortnite Passover announcement does the
4993s	fissure from Smite now give flatten or
4995s	scaling from vitality
4996s	um whatever Smite skills with the sub
4998s	skill skill with so
5001s	let's go find this
5009s	announcement Vitality plus five
5011s	um and smite scaling is Attunement and
5013s	smite void spell damage per Vitality one
5016s	so yeah so splite scaling gets it too so
5018s	I actually have this already don't know
5020s	uh where am I so yeah so we can see
5024s	Vitality scale and get skins 30 spell
5026s	void damage per Point
5028s	um or one per point Sorry 30 total
5030s	because I have 30 Vitality
5032s	34 point will be unbelievably
5035s	overpowered oh my goodness anyways yes
5037s	so any sub skills then cast by
5041s	um
5042s	smite have plus 30 spellboy damage I'm
5047s	pretty sure
5049s	because it's flat spell damage
5053s	there might be a problem there
5061s	oh Fisher doesn't have the at least do
5063s	though that's a mistake
5066s	uh okay here we go so Fisher's uh uh
5069s	damage over time ability
5072s	this is this is actually showing the
5073s	Attunement scaling okay so it doesn't
5075s	have
5077s	Attunement scaling the reason it's okay
5079s	here's here's what's happening so
5081s	because
5083s	uh these tool tips don't actually update
5088s	with how you've taken how you've how you
5090s	expect other things so the the you may
5092s	notice that there's the damage per
5093s	second 78 here uh Mana cost 28 like
5095s	nothing on this tooltip changes based on
5098s	the stats you have
5099s	actually except for that very bottom
5101s	line achievement scaling thing which
5102s	unfortunately is like the one thing that
5104s	isn't actually affected so it tries to
5107s	mimic because fissure is cast by Smite
5110s	um the default scaling the Smite has is
5113s	increased damage per Attunement likely I
5116s	think it should be
5118s	um and so what we do is we try and put
5120s	the same scaling on the sub skill as the
5122s	parent skill such that you see it and
5124s	you go hey it's got the same scaling so
5127s	I guess it scales this way and it does
5129s	effectively because it inherits that
5130s	scaling but then as soon as you uh
5133s	convert it like this it doesn't have
5135s	that same scaling so this 28 increase
5137s	damage does not actually apply to
5139s	fissure here
5140s	um and because the flat spell damage
5144s	with Smite uh is flat spell damage it
5146s	does not apply to the damage over time
5148s	effect either so suddenly fissure
5149s	becomes way worse
5153s	that's what's going on there
5162s	so so yes it does have it but it doesn't
5164s	do anything so it doesn't matter that it
5166s	has it
5170s	all right
5172s	I guess November 29th will be a stream
5174s	no no there's gonna be a document
5176s	released in the 29th no stream
5180s	uh why can't you seamlessly enter in
5182s	area why should there be any loading
5184s	screen is it because uh Unity limits
5187s	your creativity or is the game design
5188s	challenge
5189s	um
5192s	it's
5195s	uh none of those things really
5198s	um
5203s	we have to
5205s	there's a lot of technical reasons why
5207s	we have to do this I don't know all of
5209s	them off the top of my head by default
5210s	the uh primary one is likely just uh
5214s	having too many things loaded at once
5217s	that's really the thing just it would
5220s	be computers wouldn't be able to handle
5222s	it try and load that much stuff all at
5223s	the same time
5224s	we try and make zones as big as possible
5226s	so there's a few loading screens as
5227s	possible
5229s	um but it is oh that's unfortunate
5234s	it is very unfortunate
5241s	let me let me go through here come on
5244s	come on we're taking another crack at
5245s	the at the at the
5248s	oh if I get reflects twice in a row
5254s	it will be frustrated
5261s	uh also that's the case I hope the
5262s	starting animation gets removed frankly
5264s	yeah
5265s	um that's not an uncommon feedback that
5267s	we see
5268s	um
5269s	I think I'd like to see a setting to be
5271s	able to turn it off personally I think
5273s	it actually adds a fair bit
5275s	uh to the the feeling the theme the the
5277s	storytelling elements of like something
5279s	Majors happening right now
5282s	um I think the ideal way would be to
5284s	have it be seamless and show the the
5288s	the The Time Tunnel
5291s	um and then uh
5294s	uh as soon as it's finished
5299s	um my goodness where are these they're
5301s	so far away
5303s	there's one
5304s	I haven't showed The Time Tunnel and
5305s	then immediately just be like that's the
5306s	loading screen no that would be the
5308s	ideal thing and then would be nice to
5310s	try and get in still
5324s	um all the questions I just saw like
5325s	five questions about multiplayer uh look
5328s	up there a fair bit
5332s	uh lucky crits it reminds me we will
5335s	ever have the option to stop crafting
5337s	crits from happening somehow oh I'm in
5339s	the boss fight aren't I
5341s	um
5342s	wow I'm really far behind oh my goodness
5344s	I'm gonna do I'm gonna do a speed speed
5346s	run here on some questions
5348s	um
5351s	I may have been a huge mistake we'll see
5354s	nice nice
5359s	um
5360s	turning off crafting crits
5364s	it's pretty pretty rare if you're in a
5366s	situation where you don't want one it is
5369s	possible though I don't know
5372s	I can see there being like a let's say
5375s	like a a glyph you could do to be like
5377s	no crits but something else happens or
5379s	something
5380s	um but I I don't think that's probably
5382s	what people want really I don't know
5385s	the fact that there are unwanted crits
5387s	seems more like a problem with the
5389s	mechanics of the system as a whole then
5392s	um something we want to fix with a
5393s	setting like that
5395s	it's like that's my initial reaction
5403s	that's the key devs oh I almost just
5407s	died there
5409s	you're welcome
5410s	I will give the key to my son for
5413s	Christmas will mean a lot to him thanks
5414s	again you're welcome I'm
5416s	glad
5418s	case will be played with and enjoyed
5422s	the whole point of the game right
5426s	oh where are you
5428s	oh let's go let's just go
5434s	gotta get those right
5439s	it's fitting the jewel it can't be
5440s	anomalied right
5445s	yeah yeah I got that calling off
5453s	um
5461s	please
5463s	hmm
5468s	I don't like the one I know what it is
5474s	oh will we be able to use MTX for the
5477s	100 offline mode uh still so if you're
5480s	100 offline no because you won't have
5482s	any way to validate anything
5484s	um none of the MTX will work in 100
5485s	offline mode
5489s	you can you can be in
5491s	offline you logged in offline mode
5495s	I'm pretty sure it's supposed to work
5497s	there I this is all the stuff with like
5499s	the details on when MTX is gonna work uh
5501s	is still subject to change but right now
5503s	the plan is if you're in if you're not
5505s	signed in you won't be able to use your
5507s	MTX
5509s	um if you are signed in whether you're
5511s	playing offline or online character you
5513s	should be able to use your ntx
5516s	all right
5519s	round two
5521s	don't fail
5524s	it reflects it's so bad and you guys
5526s	don't want to make it actually good I
5527s	just replaced it with a fun that
5528s	actually move it all together I
5531s	it I think it needs a buff and I think
5533s	it is fun
5534s	so I'd prefer to
5537s	prefer to you know
5543s	leave it in there
5545s	uh this has probably been asked and
5547s	answered but first time since the
5548s	catching the stream are there plans to
5550s	add new characters over time or just new
5551s	subclasses there's plans to add both
5553s	over time uh did you buff silver fronds
5556s	for the work with CDR or lower the
5558s	dashes on it for multiplayer otherwise
5560s	spriggan will lag behind in parties
5562s	where all other classes combos can get
5565s	their movement skills below five seconds
5566s	there's
5567s	um
5569s	there's some pretty wide sweeping
5571s	changes that will
5573s	uh
5578s	uh that'll affect everyone's movement
5580s	abilities and the cooldowns they're in
5583s	um not really super dramatically but the
5585s	goal is to kind of just nudge the slower
5587s	ones a little bit up and uh nudge the
5591s	faster ones down a little bit just just
5593s	just nudging them in those directions
5595s	and then increasing the impact of gear
5598s	on
5601s	uh on in the whole equation such that
5604s	there's you have a little more agency
5606s	over
5607s	um where they are and so in the I think
5610s	what will happen and we're still working
5611s	the numbers a little bit I think what
5612s	will happen is if you've made a similar
5616s	investment to cooldown recovery that you
5618s	have already made on movement skills
5620s	you'll have extremely similar uh
5624s	movement speed cooldown reduction or
5626s	movement speed overall with your
5627s	movement abilities for most movement
5628s	skills and then
5630s	um especially the faster ones the faster
5632s	ones will change almost nothing if you
5633s	make a similar investment uh gear wise
5635s	and then
5637s	um
5639s	the
5640s	the slower ones will probably be a
5643s	little bit better
5646s	um with a similar with with a with a
5648s	similar investment
5650s	um
5651s	and so the ones that are probably a
5653s	little bit slower now will probably
5654s	benefit better from the uh cooldown
5659s	investment
5660s	I'm being pretty vague about this
5661s	because uh the details aren't locked in
5663s	place yet but the goal is to kind of
5666s	make it so that people are not
5670s	um
5671s	so we don't run into a situation where
5673s	it's like okay well if you want to keep
5674s	up you better play a rogue or if you
5676s	want to keep up you better play a
5677s	sentinel
5678s	um you know that sort of thing we want
5680s	to avoid those situations where people
5681s	can play any class they want and still
5683s	be and still have the option to go as
5685s	fast as classes that currently are a
5688s	little bit faster
5690s	and we also want to bring a little bit
5692s	of that
5693s	um that uh a little bit more of the
5697s	improvements to the speed that you're
5698s	traveling at into uh your gear as well
5702s	just just trying to make give those
5704s	nudges to make you're a little bit a
5705s	little bit more um important in general
5709s	I know that's not the category people
5710s	usually talk about when they talk about
5711s	that topic but I think it's relevant
5713s	these are not massive changes we're
5715s	talking in the fractions of seconds
5718s	range right now overall
5723s	like all said and done there's like
5724s	several changes that like when you
5726s	combine them all together it's fractions
5728s	of seconds for most abilities
5730s	some of them it's like
5732s	basically nothing
5735s	all right up to now which has been the
5738s	hardest part of the game to develop the
5740s	hardest part
5747s	I mean
5749s	um
5751s	develop multiplayer oh yeah develop
5753s	multiplayer no no question about this I
5755s	don't know why I asked multiplayer or
5756s	why I hummed it on it's like so uh far
5759s	beyond everything else
5762s	I've combed over the forums a few times
5764s	to answer this question but I haven't
5765s	ever found it are there higher chances
5767s	to find uniques with legendary Potential
5768s	from the dungeon not just temporal boss
5771s	drops no the legendary potential the
5773s	only there's
5775s	um apart from the temporal sanctum
5778s	guaranteed boss drop to have legendary
5780s	potential on it apart from that which is
5783s	the only time that happens
5784s	um the only thing that affects the
5786s	legendary potential of a unique item
5787s	when it drops is the level of the zone
5791s	that you are in when it drops
5794s	uh and I should qualify that by saying
5797s	the level of the zone
5800s	um for certain zones is scaled based on
5803s	your own level so if you're using a root
5805s	of a sentence at the end of time
5807s	I'm like 99 sure uses your character
5810s	level as the Zone level I could be wrong
5815s	99 sure that's right I'm pretty sure
5818s	random says I think I think root of a
5820s	sentence might just use your character
5820s	level no matter where you are I'm pretty
5822s	sure that's what it is
5827s	but yeah if you're ascending items you
5830s	should do it on a high level character
5834s	unless unless because sorry caveat there
5836s	unless you're looking for a specific
5838s	unique that is uh lower if there's other
5843s	I at a lower level when you're ascending
5846s	items you get the
5848s	um
5849s	you can cut off certain uniques from
5851s	being rolled because if you're too low
5853s	level you can't roll the high level
5854s	uniques with a Renaissance
5856s	so if you want a specific level unique
5857s	she's a low level character
5860s	oh this is it's a little complicated uh
5863s	one thing I love about Titan Quest is
5864s	the way you enter seamlessly into areas
5866s	Etc yeah it's pretty great
5894s	so they want him to cheer me up there's
5896s	only one thing that can cheer me up
5899s	not to give away and that's a giveaway
5902s	all right
5916s	okay I think this just works okay
5923s	easy listening yes I am using a
5925s	stainless I can do things like this
5929s	oh heavy thank you five two one Celsius
5932s	to the channel congrats them when I got
5933s	one of those oh Andrew got one nice
5936s	um thank you very much appreciate it and
5937s	to commemorate this we're gonna start uh
5940s	with a giveaway so
5942s	um I think this should work because I
5944s	don't think I need to press the button
5945s	last time yet please type reflect
5948s	into
5950s	chat if you would like to enter the
5952s	giveaway and oh my gosh I hope it works
5958s	thank you
5966s	it's working yes oh I understand how the
5969s	giveaway system works oh so good
5971s	okay we're gonna let that run for a
5973s	minute while I try and catch up on a
5974s	couple questions here
5977s	uh hello is a Playstation release in the
5980s	plans I General console release plans
5982s	from earlier yes I'd love to do one
5985s	um as soon as we can controller support
5986s	needs to happen first full release needs
5988s	to happen first after that we'll look at
5989s	it
5990s	um I think we could do great console
5991s	release I think it'd be awesome uh this
5994s	is not a question but I just wanted to
5995s	say thank you uh say that you did an
5997s	awesome job with this game thank you
5998s	appreciate that
6000s	um I haven't had an arpg have my
6002s	attention like this since I first scored
6003s	Poe during Legacy League or D2 when I
6006s	was a teen ah yes I can't wait to see
6009s	where it goes over time I also play D2
6011s	as a teen
6013s	to my parents dismay
6018s	um I actually recently
6020s	uh told my mom that I would like get up
6024s	in the middle of the night to play
6025s	Diablo 2 on the family computer in the
6028s	living room when uh this was this is
6030s	this is I'm old enough that like you had
6033s	a family computer not everyone had their
6034s	own computers or everything and uh she
6037s	the person at the computer store I told
6039s	her that the computer was not designed
6041s	for playing games and and she took that
6044s	to me and if you play games on it you're
6045s	gonna wreck it uh she didn't want to
6047s	wreck her computer so she's like you
6048s	can't play games on my computer
6050s	um and I'm like I know better yada yada
6053s	I'm gonna do it anyway so like get up in
6055s	the middle of the night and play it and
6056s	I'd like hide the game in the computer
6057s	and
6059s	um yeah
6065s	that's why I slept through first period
6067s	of all of grade 12.
6076s	I had cool physics teacher though he
6077s	said as long as I was getting an a I
6078s	could sleep through class so I worked
6080s	hard got an A and slept through first
6081s	period every every Wednesday Friday
6083s	morning
6087s	you mentioned one can meet the grind to
6088s	100 a little longer will that be
6090s	happening at 0.9 I don't know if that
6092s	changes actually happened or not
6094s	um and just to be clear whenever this
6095s	question comes up I want to qualify this
6096s	by saying that it's the
6099s	um it's the it's the tail end of that so
6102s	it's that 95 to 100.
6104s	um and it's not a huge stretch but it's
6106s	just like just drawing it up just a
6107s	little bit more because there's so
6108s	little power that comes from that and we
6110s	want to be more of an achievement to hit
6111s	100 instead of right now where it's a
6113s	little it's a little on the easy side
6114s	okay
6116s	we've got a lot of people that are
6118s	eligible here
6120s	I'm Gonna Roll It are you ready

6287s	it's message me directly whisper whisper
6290s	that's the term whisper me whisper I
6293s	can't do it
6296s	what a phenomenal game talk about
6298s	remakes done right for a second just
6300s	just what I just want to touch base here
6301s	uh king's quest
6303s	is a game that most people have never
6306s	heard of these days oh my goodness it's
6309s	this old point-and-click Adventure game
6311s	that is just so full of charm and wit
6314s	and it's just glorious and it's it's I'm
6318s	sure some of you are like yeah I
6319s	remember playing that when I was like
6320s	five it's the greatest thing ever but
6322s	like yeah I never finished it was so
6324s	hard and they recently re-released as I
6326s	don't know five years ago now they they
6328s	remade the game they remade the whole
6330s	series they did five episodes of it and
6332s	oh they did such a good job with it
6335s	oh my goodness they did such a good job
6338s	with it and it's it's
6339s	I
6341s	oh
6344s	it's got vasini from Princess Bride
6348s	and I'm just determined to prove how old
6349s	I am today aren't I
6351s	um
6353s	he does such a good job
6355s	the writing's phenomenal gameplay is Fun
6357s	the puzzles are neat
6359s	it's it the Kingsway series always had
6361s	this like
6363s	sort of
6364s	uh esoteric nature to the puzzles where
6368s	you're just like
6369s	that's ridiculous I like no one would
6373s	ever think of that that is unbelievably
6375s	insane I can't think of a good example
6377s	that right now I probably should be able
6378s	to but I just can't and and there's
6380s	there's cheeky nods to that in the
6381s	remake but um it's it's much more
6385s	accessible
6386s	it's it's definitely a modern game
6389s	um and oh it's just it's great
6391s	highly recommend
6395s	play more Luke starts with Sierra does
6396s	too yeah it looks look sense it's oh so
6398s	many classic Luke songs games are just
6400s	wonderful there's lots of
6402s	um
6404s	there's a if you enjoy that type of game
6406s	at all random side mentioned I guess
6410s	um there's a mostly walking is a web
6413s	show
6414s	where they play Old School
6416s	point-and-click adventure games they do
6418s	a great job it's day nine
6419s	and a couple of his couple of his
6421s	friends from college
6425s	they do a wonderful job
6442s	uh which dungeon are you giving away
6445s	keys for
6447s	all right nice nice
6451s	all of them simultaneously because I'm
6453s	giving you the the ability to to find
6456s	them yourself
6461s	some something fish something day
6463s	something fish for a year I don't know
6468s	all right will we be able to hover over
6470s	an affix in the loop filter to show
6472s	details similar to when we see in the
6473s	crafting inventory when we hover over A
6475s	Shard this can be applied to yeah I
6477s	think that's so that's a really good
6479s	suggestion
6480s	um we've we've had that sort of type of
6483s	thing on our radar for a little bit
6485s	um that's potential uh future upgrade
6487s	for the for the um filters because I
6489s	think that's a a very good thing to put
6492s	there because it does have a reference
6493s	to what The Shard is at that point
6497s	um so it should be able to get that
6498s	tooltip information
6500s	uh and displayed it's just a matter of
6501s	inputting it
6503s	like like setting it up to work really
6510s	uh
6512s	this happens every time doesn't it
6517s	uh some people watch with audio off due
6521s	to lurk while working might be easier to
6523s	tag him in chat to tell him oh good idea
6526s	quiet
6528s	this is what this is why this is why we
6530s	have smart people around here
6551s	it's gonna give him a couple things I
6553s	might roll another one in a minute
6555s	uh warlock won't be void or Minion or
6558s	transform thinking like uh we can play
6561s	bringer uh just give a wink and a nod
6566s	I tried did I do it I think I did it
6576s	as a cyclops in Disguise winking so
6579s	difficult for me
6593s	leaks leaks leaks More release leaks
6595s	leaks leaks more leaks okay
6601s	uh here's just a little clip just just a
6604s	little clip showing off some new uh
6606s	uh buff VFX on the Sentinel boy
6610s	just just a few abilities and how they
6612s	look
6614s	drink lots of water
6616s	this is your daily sponsorship by water
6619s	not a sponsor
6622s	some high quality H2O
6625s	just a little there's various effects
6626s	Happening Here different abilities
6629s	um
6631s	it's possible that's all
6638s	this little one that's it
6643s	minion Health don't need it pass
6650s	okay
6656s	you know what
6659s	I have not got a reply from who Jay yet
6662s	sadly
6665s	or well past the time so I'm gonna
6667s	reroll it I apologize CJ
6669s	uh I hope this wasn't a big deal for you
6672s	we're picking a new one
6676s	water sucks Gatorade is better
6682s	love it
6683s	all right here we go round two
6686s	spell worm congratulations I hope you
6690s	enjoy it
6693s	please message me spellworm
6695s	and I will yes spellworm is there
6697s	spellworm is active I see spell worm
6716s	can I just figure it out myself
6718s	that's why I just couldn't figure out
6719s	how to message someone that hadn't
6721s	hadn't seen in chat recently
6723s	I found you I just sent you a message
6725s	you don't need to do it I got you
6732s	just recording this to make sure it's
6734s	clear what I did and who I gave the keys
6736s	to
6737s	dunskis
6740s	all right
6743s	that's uh that's all the giveaways we
6745s	have for you for today I do have uh
6750s	yeah I got I got one more thing I got
6751s	one more leak to show I'm gonna do
6753s	another
6754s	monolith here and then I'll show that
6756s	leak in a little bit but I do have one
6758s	more for you
6763s	oh you're telling the house hello
6767s	all right are there any plans to make
6770s	the dot continuous instead of ticks or
6772s	is it too difficult to implement for the
6774s	most part it doesn't matter but recently
6776s	I made an aura of Decay Lichfield where
6778s	theoretically I should have sustained
6780s	the self-inflicted poison but individual
6782s	ticks killed me
6784s	um
6788s	basically no unfortunately the chances
6791s	of US changing this are very low
6795s	um
6796s	if there's like a consistent maybe not
6798s	consistent but even like Sami frequent
6800s	time where this type of problem comes up
6802s	I could see us reducing the time between
6804s	the ticks a little bit in certain
6805s	circumstances it does have a performance
6808s	implication
6809s	um so the longer we can have this apart
6812s	the better
6814s	um but yes there is having the gameplay
6815s	be smooth is the most important thing so
6818s	um
6819s	if that includes uh how am I doing push
6824s	the wrong buttons is what I'm doing oh
6826s	yeah
6826s	um but if that includes
6828s	the gameplay problems from having the
6831s	ticks too far apart or the performance
6834s	implications of having them too close
6835s	together so we gotta find that sweet
6837s	spot and um
6839s	so if you can if this is something that
6841s	happens to you more than just like once
6842s	every month and you're playing regularly
6845s	something you know
6846s	um having if you have like even a real
6849s	remotely consistent setup for the
6850s	situation happening
6852s	um something like that on the feedback
6853s	forums would be a good thread um
6855s	something that we can see in reference
6857s	to and possibly act on
6866s	well Mike Mike where the questions here
6869s	I want a pure zombie pet class
6872s	I mean you can you can do zombies as
6875s	your only pets and uh and just run
6877s	zombies and acolyte so yeah
6881s	have fun
6886s	uh where do you uh where do you guys do
6888s	the character race options later when
6891s	you do the characterized options later
6892s	on please give me a frog race frog is
6895s	awesome trigger it's funny so um
6897s	whenever we reset the ladders the center
6899s	old old ladder system like quite a while
6901s	ago
6902s	um before Rogue was even released I
6905s	would um whenever I reset the ladders I
6907s	would always slap a test character up
6909s	there from the editor just to make sure
6911s	so I'd reset the ladders and then all
6913s	the letters would always start with a
6914s	level one Rogue on them
6917s	um that was always called frog
6922s	that that's a Chrono Trigger preference
6924s	in case that wasn't obvious from Context
6925s	but yes
6929s	uh all right what is a warlock exactly
6932s	is it a war of locks on doors or is it
6935s	something you can't explain your
6936s	subclass on acolyte leaves too much to
6939s	imagination care to specify the theme of
6941s	the Warlock please yeah um
6944s	I think I can give a general like
6947s	feeling theme there
6949s	um and I think there's
6952s	um
6957s	Jafar
6959s	I think that's that's a good way to put
6961s	a Jafar just like it's it's it's this
6966s	and I know this doesn't really give you
6967s	anything mechanically at all but
6969s	thematically I think that's a really
6971s	good touch Zone
6972s	for it
6974s	what was this molecular Army's armor
6976s	shred Mike what are you thinking
6979s	endurance yeah I mean we got a calling
6981s	endurance is fine
6986s	aha I introduced the next batch I mean
6988s	oh there's there's been a fair bit of
6989s	news here and there uh we don't have any
6990s	details about it but um if you are
6993s	looking to find out when the next batch
6996s	is going to be that information will be
6997s	revealed
6998s	in four days time
7004s	in four days time look to the forums
7007s	look to the Discord
7011s	it doesn't really work I was trying to
7012s	like a Gandalf thing
7018s	um
7018s	I don't know if this was ever asked
7021s	probably but it's okay to ask again uh
7024s	is there a chance for a button to put
7025s	all of your items on the ground or some
7027s	of you I changed to better show items
7029s	with some filter tags in inventory
7034s	put all of your items on like like like
7036s	drop all gear from your inventory
7040s	um I I don't think we'd ever put an item
7042s	like that in the game just from like the
7045s	um I'm calling what am I doing get in
7046s	there
7047s	uh just from the standpoint of like
7049s	accidentally pressing that at a bad time
7051s	is like Bob just dropped all my gear
7053s	what do I do
7055s	um
7056s	so I I doubt we didn't Implement a drop
7058s	all gear uh button
7061s	um
7064s	I think there's some room for some
7065s	quality of life improvements there
7066s	though like with with
7068s	um there's games that do things where
7069s	they you can like tag things as junk and
7071s	then like sell all junk uh things like
7074s	that I think are really nice to do
7076s	um I don't know if we'll do that
7078s	specifically but maybe something like
7080s	that and then as far as filters showing
7082s	in your inventory that's a really tricky
7084s	thing to do
7085s	um
7087s	we've considered it
7090s	um
7091s	we don't have a good way to implement it
7092s	at the moment so it's not on the list
7096s	unfortunately
7104s	apparently Judd's getting chewed out for
7106s	not being in bed
7109s	perfect perfect
7111s	uh a spiral Vortex layout would kind of
7115s	Loop dope for the model
7121s	uh oh look
7124s	ah
7126s	see I'm Sherlock up in here
7129s	immediately searching Jafar character
7131s	breakdown but I'm a thieves thieves like
7136s	like like fields and
7139s	um you know
7147s	go ahead Google Google away have you
7150s	ever thought about a total warlike
7152s	layout for the monolith no we haven't I
7155s	don't think I don't think that's I don't
7156s	think that's sort of things come up
7159s	a little while since I played a total
7161s	war game though
7163s	the last one I played was
7165s	like
7167s	I feel like total war would be
7170s	very odd for a monolith layout
7175s	actually like the map view like where
7176s	you're like
7177s	like the 4X style View
7190s	your Avalanche does not scare me
7200s	I I missed the I asked this earlier and
7203s	I totally missed the reply
7206s	I guess I could scroll back all the way
7208s	to the very beginning of chat but I'm
7209s	gonna ask it again
7211s	um if anyone is here regularly uh have
7214s	you noticed a significant or minor have
7216s	you noticed any difference in the Stream
7218s	quality visually like um like like
7221s	dropped frames lag uh just and anything
7224s	at all
7226s	um
7227s	and how it looks from last time
7229s	so we made some changes I would like to
7231s	know how impactful they've been
7235s	hopefully extremely impactful
7237s	maybe not because I mean it was terrible
7239s	before
7245s	the campaign map layout yes your
7246s	character moved from one location to
7247s	another yeah
7256s	I really love this like like changes
7258s	like that we'd have to we have to redo
7260s	so much like we have to redo the visuals
7262s	on every single
7264s	our asset in the monolith and the like
7267s	physical world and the model of two like
7269s	this that's just two too big of a change
7272s	for us to make at this stage
7274s	um even even even if it was something
7275s	that we're like yeah we really want this
7277s	it's just that's just too much
7282s	this shouldn't uh fly in town
7286s	I wish I wish
7290s	yeah I could strike chance it's fine we
7292s	got critstrike avoidance
7295s	don't worry let's reduce damage from
7296s	crit strike so it doesn't matter guild
7298s	war is still at a Mesmer class yeah
7301s	I loved the Mesmer so much it was
7305s	I ABS it was my favorite thing Guild
7307s	Wars one had it too
7308s	um
7309s	that was one of the big things I played
7311s	in Guild Wars one was a it was a Mesmer
7318s	just the I'm a terrible blue Mage in in
7321s	Magic too so like
7324s	um I love counter spells and Mesmer had
7326s	this counterspellability where like it
7328s	just had so many interrupts where you
7329s	could just stop people from casting and
7331s	Guild Wars was so PVP based that like
7335s	um it was just it was just this game of
7337s	like
7337s	interrupt interrupt interrupt interrupt
7340s	interrupt so I I I'm just I'm a terrible
7343s	person I know I'm sorry
7354s	um having the issue with game crashing
7356s	oh no contact support the Beavers plan
7358s	it'll be able to help you way better
7359s	than I can I'll do the best of your
7360s	question though uh I could play maybe 30
7362s	minutes and then it locks up my entire
7363s	PC and I have to go to a hard reset I
7365s	have a 2070 and a 99 uh what would you
7368s	make what would be making this happen I
7370s	would recommend turning on streamer mode
7371s	it will improve stability quite a bit
7373s	other than that I'm making sure your
7375s	games on an SSD
7378s	um making sure
7380s	uh there's I don't know not something in
7382s	the background that's just like
7384s	consuming all Ram like The Great
7386s	Devourer of of Worlds
7388s	um you think things like that uh but if
7391s	you need more help please contact
7392s	support they'll be able to do a lot more
7394s	for you than I will
7399s	uh stream is blurry for me but I most
7401s	likely do need to reload the stream but
7403s	I know I'm the spoilers fight too just
7406s	leave it
7412s	oh my gosh for over time aren't we we're
7415s	over time oh goodness me I didn't even
7418s	notice I've been having such a great
7420s	time
7420s	this happens every once in a while I'll
7422s	stream and I just like lose track of
7423s	time we're gonna finish this Echo though
7430s	of course it's not this way Mike you
7431s	know what level this is
7433s	a little beard oil for boosting game
7435s	speed
7436s	out of world things like that we
7439s	generally like to avoid so stuff that
7441s	like doesn't make sense to be in the in
7443s	the game world
7447s	oh do they have beard oil
7451s	long long ago I like desert maybe though
7456s	uh yes less rendering lag nice Graphics
7460s	look a bit more budget but overall it's
7462s	good really okay
7468s	any plans for cross progression between
7470s	characters in a cycle
7473s	um
7474s	there's sort of a inherent cross
7476s	regression that happens with
7478s	uh gear but I understand that you
7479s	actually mean like monolith and dungeon
7482s	unlocks and things like that
7484s	um and we're not planning on it right
7486s	now it's still like it's a still a topic
7488s	that gets brought up every once in a
7489s	while but
7491s	um that that progression through
7495s	um through the monolith and it is is
7497s	kind of important to the character
7499s	progression and learning that character
7501s	and it's it's much less of an issue for
7503s	people who they're on their 20th
7504s	character than someone who's on their
7506s	third character
7509s	um
7510s	I was I almost went back for another one
7512s	I almost did it okay we're gonna bring
7514s	this up and I'm gonna answer some
7515s	questions while it's up here oh concept
7518s	art for uh for a little batty boy
7521s	when I first brought this up into the uh
7524s	into stream labs to put up on stream
7526s	there's like a preview for it
7528s	and I was replacing another image that I
7530s	guess I'd scaled up really high and this
7532s	is a pretty high res image so when I put
7533s	it on there the only thing I could see
7536s	was that was that chicken and does it
7538s	show it like uh I guess my cursor is not
7541s	shown on screen I don't know but the
7543s	chicken that's like
7544s	below the word news it was like all I
7547s	could see on my whole screen preview and
