@ehlychnobius We'll be having a special event starting August 25th where players will be able to test the game in its current state and the game won't be under NDA for the event so be sure to check that out.
@Phinetic_ We definitely take feedback seriously and while the delay is disappointing, we felt it was the correct decision with the help of the feedback we had gotten.
