We’re trying a new approach to balance changes this time around! We’ll be posting some Temtem and the changes that apply or heavily influence them all together, so you can more easily see and gauge the impact of these changes. To make sure nothing gets lost in the fray, though, these changes will still appear under their respective categories lower down below. Let us know what you think of this change, and any feedback you might have on it!

HIGHLIGHTED CHANGES

  • #001 – Mimit
    • DNA Extraction
      • SPD Stage modification has been reduced 2 ⇒ 1.
      • Damage has been reduced 25 ⇒ 20.
    • Striking Transmog
      • Damage reduction has been reduced 50% ⇒ 30%.
    • Mimit is one of the most predominant Temt...

Out of curiosity (because I have essentially zero idea how much dev time it would take), would it be feasible to add variety to the Event quests by repurposing some of the quests from the main storyline? For example, could the quest where Zamzaditta asks you to bring her a Gyalis egg and a Hidody egg be reused with two different species? Or perhaps having other notable NPCs in the game available for a re-battle, such as Captain Malika?

This idea was suggested both internally and externally, but if I remember correctly there was no easy/manageable way to simply export or repurpose a quest. I'm not a tech person either, though, so I trusted their judgement on it. Still, I'll re-forward them this and remind them.

Could be any of them, but a blurry image and a hangman's game don't really give any idea what to expect. Knowing one tem that's featured could be a nice thing to look forwards to.

The community on Discord loves the hangman, but I'll make sure to keep it out of Reddit next time.
And noted! Will do so next time, albeit a bit later.

If you are talking about the archtamers quest and the need to do one weekly koish, that was changed in 1.4: https://crema.gg/temtem/patch-1-4/

👥Following your feedback we’ve adjusted the Nalla quest (Coda: The Jubilee) so that successful Koish fishing isn’t a required activity anymore. This quest, which lets players access Tamer’s Paradise, will now only request any Koish from the Nuru Lodge.

It wouldn't hurt to just show a tem in the photo that'll be featured in the event, so people get a general idea of what they're looking at

Do you mean the one on the radar challenge or the ones that are depicted/represented during the event? For example, for this one event, would you have preferred seeing Minttle or Thaiko/Momo?

Ya got to rework events at some point. They are so boring to do the free cosmetics are often not even worth it.

Events are getting a little bit easier on 1.5, we've reduced the amount of tems needed for capture (not 100 anymore) and we've also reduced a bit the amount of currency needed for the last reward, you can now skip a 150 mission (or a 50 + 100).
Other than that, no big changes are planned on them. Events only exist because it was a feature easy to implement since it is basically a mini-battlepass and implement as such.
Would be cool to see deeper events with world changes, new quests, etc? absolutely, but it is also out of our (current) scope.

I spent some time thinking about a posible new game plus but didn’t find a compelling and feasible way to implement it tbh.

If you keep your tems then you are going to ruin it maxed (lvl 100), so either all the trainers on the game are also level ~100 or you’re just going to breeze through it.

Also what kind of rewards would it grant? Without rewards very few people will do it and since replaying it wouldn’t be too hard due to the possibility of being maxed out it shouldn’t grant too many things neither, reducing again the appeal for most of the user base…

Definitely open to ideas on this!

What exactly is meant to be guessed from 3 pixels?

Sorry! I was doing the same thing in the Discord and there was a fun little guessing game going on, and I try not to leave Reddit out of those sort of teasers.
What other kind of teasers would you like to see in the future? We can try new things.

I haven't tested it personally but it should work as long as it is recognized as something similar to a keyboard or a gamepad. You can remap pretty much anything ingame (or in Steam like you said).

There is a title for all EA players. You maintain it even after resetting the account.

That is tied to the quality level you chose for the video settings. IIRC there is also a setting to enable or disable it independently.

On the rare chance you see this, Yaw, I am a Temtem player who really loves the game and play it weekly.

What the game desperately needs is better gameplay loops, and a revision of the entire reward system. I won't spend too much time on this, but Freetem is absurdly boring. Dojo Rematches can get stale, but are fine as it is. It is absurd that Fishing the 5/5 doesn't guarantee an ETC. Tamer Activities are fun, but the reward ratio is waaaaaay off.

All in all, I feel that the gameplay loops and reward ratios make the game be way to grindy for players who want to invest in other stuff that isn't Showdown. And you all knew this, so I don't know why it is such a surprise that by making the game progression so grindy you dont make it NEARLY rewarding enough for casuals to stick to it. As it stands, it will only be welcoming to hardcore players (such as me). And I am sorry but this is really easy to grasp, and it's at the root at the issue why the playerbase is the numbe...

Thanks for your comment!

And yeah, I agree, PvE is not in the best form right now. There are some things coming in 1.5, a rework for Freetem (although it will always be "boring" due to the nature of it) and some improvements for Lairs too. I also want to take a look at the rewards but is always complicated to find a good spot, at least for us.

Yes! There is a big content patch planned for September that includes a new mythical Tem so if you start now you will be able to reach the endgame point needed for the new quest and the new mythical in time!

This design is very, very disappointing to me from the looks of it. I was hoping they were going to keep the theme of the other mythicals and do some kind of reptile/dinosaur/dragon. It also looks very small and simple from the silhouette, which is making me wonder why on earth it's taken so long to make.

You are now hating over your own capabilities lol

We haven’t shown anything about the design. The thing you’re referring to is just a twitter meme.

In-game tournaments

Cross-progression

Nuzlocke

The trade house

I’m obviously talking about our original plans vs what will the game have/will have. If you discovered the game on early access then some of those things were already developed or planned yes, same as if you discover the game on 1.0 or now. Doesn’t change the fact that we’ve been constantly upgrading and increasing our vision for the game and the scope of the features it has.
