Hi Guys.

Hopefully you all checked out the Developer Q&A which we just hosted where Mod West and I showed off the Hallowed Sepulchre (greybox) which is coming out with the Sins of the Father quest in the city of Darkmeyer. If not, hopefully the VOD will be up soon on youtube!

For those of you who wanted to leave feedback, feel free to leave it below. If you're not sure what type of feedback to give I have a few suggestions below. I'll make sure to read all of these and reply to any questions you have when I come back into the office tomorrow.

  • What are your thoughts on interactive Agility content in general? Do you feel like it has a place in the game?

  • Did you like the mechanics of the three different traps we showed off? (Moving Flame Patterns, Dodging Projectiles and the Rolling Boulder)

  • What do you think of the idea of combination traps to make the later floors more difficult?

  • What are your thoughts on the penalty system where you will lose time from your clock instead of taking large amounts of damage?

  • What do you think about the balance between going for high XP/hr and choosing to sacrifice that XP for loot?

  • What do you think of the Risk vs Reward aspect where you have to choose at the end of the floor if you continue with your remaining time (risking losing your rewards if you can't complete the next floor) or leaving now with the rewards you have earned?

  • What do you think of the concept where you invest your Hallowed marks earned from the mini-game to buy rewards which help you in the mini-game itself?

  • What do you think of the visuals of the concept art and the direction we are heading in.? Do you like the thematics of a "Holy crypt built into/from stone."?

Thanks to all who give feedback on this, it really does help make sure that we deliver the type of content which you want to see from Darkmeyer.

Edit: Here is the link to the Dev Q&A on youtube. The Hallowed Sepulchre showcase starts after the initial announcements: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HgoRsiR4bi4

Edit 2: Just wanted to say thanks to everyone who commented on this, even if I didn't get a chance to respond to your feedback directly I have read everything in here. Here's hoping I can deliver on the expectations for this content set by the livestream!
