Happen to remember any text from the ticket so I can search for it in the database?

Hello, have you reported this in-game with ALT+B key combination?

You can't. Mythic path has too much of an impact to the story and you simply can't convert it back and forth.

While you are it at, please fix disappearing mythic path cosmetic effects bug too. I have to reload every single time, once those effects disappear. Extremely Inconvenient.

Known, in the works.

Hey Starrok, we already have the "scroll to the bottom" button. It released with the Treasure of the Midnight Isles release patch. So did you guys accidentally give us EE content too soon? :D

Hah well. Christmas comes early, I guess?

Hey, Starrok, just wanted to ask: will the EE of WotR include the first season of DLC for console users? Or will it be available as a seperate purchase at some point? I've tried to find the information myself but keep coming up empty.

Console will include free DLCs at launch, and we're working on making SP1 DLCs available for purchase too, but it isn't guaranteed to happen simultaneously at launch for all console platforms.

Adding a simple mythic feat to bypass poison is really that much budget? I'm sorry if i'm being ignorant but im curious about it because this looks as simple adding a json line. I get there is a whole testing thing for it, but i wouldn't mind a beta released for us players to test then. There is a mod that does it already even

It is.

First, a game designer comes up with an idea and describes how it will work. They've got to keep many factors in mind such as potentially broken combinations with other spells, abilities and encounter balance, how it will affect DLCs etc.

Then they need to advocate why this idea should be implemented before others, discussing it with the head(s) of the project and getting a stamp of approval.

Then they need to check it with the narrative team so that the ability fits story, lore, character class, etc. That discussion takes some time.

A narrative designer then proceeds to write the flavour text.

Then a programmer implements it. Some features may take just a couple of lines of code, while others may take days.

If the ability contains a new icon, an artist draws the icon.

If the ability requires new visuals or animations in-game, a tech art specialist proceeds to create it (this is one of the most expensive parts because i...

Finally, the game is playable! Any chance armor dyeing will make its way back to Kingmaker?

Games aren't really backwards-compatible. I gave an example in another comment - you're technically asking if a Windows 10 update could be installed on Windows XP.

Do you have keyboard and mouse support planned for consoles?

Not on launch, but we'll explore such possibility in future.

Any chance of an official buff manager, Starrok? That would make life much easier on console, where you can’t just download the mod.

Not on launch. Maybe we'll figure out something later on, on consoles it's indeed a problem.

Armor dyeing is something I did not expect, but welcome with open arms.

On a separate note, will EE address the issue of Poison Immunity being so prevalent in WotR, yet not having any ways, neither through itemization nor Mythic Paths, to suppress the Immunity?

Not being able to suppress/bypass Poison Immunity makes some Spells and Class Features completely useless, which is weird considering there are ways to suppress other Immunities like those of Elemental Damage.

We have a handful of ideas for new mythic feats, but they aren't due for EE. Maybe one day with one of DLCs or updates. Unfortunately in game development, what you WANT to do never fully aligns with what you can AFFORD to do, so you got to make choices.

Awesome.

Now the big question - can I manage to clear KM before this comes out?

Want to do a full playthrough of both games with the same character.

This comes out in 9 days. If you start just now, unlikely, unless you do an extreme speedrun.

Why not add it as a dynamic option for larger screens/resolutions.

Multiple options were proposed, including the one you mentioned. But it doesn't help people with small screens and at the same time it's much more complicated in development. Thus, way more expensive than the current option, while less effective. So the current implementation got the green light.

Any teaser you can share about 2nd season pass as well?

Not yet, but it shouldn't be long before that.

Amazing work, but please tell me you have a solution for buffing so that we don't have to rely on outside mods to avoid spending 5 minutes after each rest on buffs !

Hello, no, sorry, that is not planned.

Comment

Don't think there are any plans right now, but it's a topic to ponder on. We still have the proper Steam mod integration somewhere down the road first.

This seems like a lot of work for a worse solution.

We thought about it, but it would break the UI layout for smaller screens.
