/u/OwlcatStarrok Have a look at tabletop tweaks for some heavy inspiration on general improvements.

Our devs track the most popular mods and some of the features introduced in them sometimes end up in the main game, as it happened TBM did in its time.

Do note however, that the game designers see a bigger picture, and sometimes a feature that seems to be an obvious QoL improvement on the first glance, may actually break the 'oldschool magic' the game has, which is so praised by our playerbase. The player or modmaker may not realize this until they suddenly get that creepy "It's not the same anymore" feeling, which I'm certain most of you felt at least once, especially with MMOs, and it's the game designer's role to prevent that.

It's a very thin line, making the game accessible and at the same time not making it 'optimized' to the point it feels shallow and 'sterile'. I really respect the folk in our game design team because imo they are able to dance around this blade's edge perfectly.

Generally, this is an interesting topic I'd be happy to share more th...

So wait, are visuals updated for all mythics? Because Swarm deffinetly needs one.

Sadly it's not that huge. But Aeon, Azata and Trickster got some love.

Please, give a little hint about azata=)

Well, we've got to keep an element of surprise, eh?

Nice! Will we get a little tease for trickster?

They say Trickster loves some good beer...

Damn, I’m gonna have to do an Aeon run too. That’s gonna be a lot of runs with a lot of custom portraits. Curse you, Owlcats! :D

P.S. will any other mythic paths get graphical changes in general?

Trickster and Azata will receive some neat visual upgrades on something related to these mythic paths :)

Checked with the art team specially for you, it is in for all races in both male and female versions :)

Hey Starrok ! We keep waiting for it... but nothing has come (yet). Is it still planned for this week at least ? Thanks !

It's almost ready, but the team still works on some technical issues. Unless something goes haywire, I'd expect it within nearest few days, maybe a week.

Oh, a fellow Angel. Good luck!

Will we ever get rideable ponies for small paladins? (a proper lance with working mechanics as tabletop would also be great)

I wouldn't count on Lances. That's mechanically complicated and won't add much player experience for what it's worth in terms of budget. Didn't see any plans for ponies, but at least that sounds more realistic to implement.

what's this? mod? or did they finally give the aeon an appearance consistent with its portrait?

It's patch 1.2 content :)

I'm very conflicted right now. Should I wait for 1.2 or keep playing my second playthrough(Azata), if it's not too long I'll wait but if it month or so, I'll keep playing.

Demon getting a new toy which probably be my 3rd playthrough.

Like I said, it could literally already be here if not for some technical delays. The QA team doesn't give an exact date at the moment, but my personal assumption (don't take it for official confirmation) is that it's just a few more days, maybe a week.

Owlcat Games is a Russian studio :)

Feedback on the feedback form from limited experience in this area: Asking the community on archetype tier rankings isn't going to get you useful, relevant data - almost no one will have played enough of each one to give an informed opinion.

This is something better left up to QA specialists doing dedicated testing in different scenarios. Often it's good to get community feedback as a 'canary in the Cole mines' (Fans are the best way of identifying there is an issue, and the worst at identifying what it is and how to fix it), but I'd suspect this will not suffice for what you're trying to get.

My main suggestion would be offer tangible tools at character select to help guide players into avoiding trap options - Pathfinder uses Ivory Tower design which I enjoy, but most people don't and don't even have the context to understand what they're getting into. A bad character can be funny in ...

Surveys like this one yield valuable data for internal processing and reviews by game designers. Don't worry, it's not just "the players believe class X is underpowered, let's buff it asap". Experienced folks on the team ain't eating their bread for nothing :)

We deeply appreciate your concern, nevertheless.

Just news about what level 1.2 changes things beyond bug fixes would be welcome. I have hopes of improvements to Trickster, Demon and Aeon.

There are some major balance tweaks for Crusade and some Mythics, couple of new shiny toys for Lich and Demon, a number of long-anticipated fixes (Azata spell restoration, I'm looking at you there!) and a few QoL upgrades.

Some exciting visual upgrades, too. For instance, do you guys love beer? ;)

And I'll just leave this here for the Aeon lovers: https://www.reddit.com/r/Pathfinder_Kingmaker/comments/sd7ien/ill_simply_leave_this_here/

1.2 beta is literally around the edge. If not for some technical delays you'd probably already see it by now :) Just waiting for the team to do some final preparations. News on DLC coming soon, too.
