What's Coming in Release 53? We're Glad You Asked!

The Shroud of the Avatar site has been updated with a forward look at the game's Top 10 development goals, but also with a forward looking peek at what's coming in Release 53 that is slated to go live on April 26th. Release 53 is the first post-launch update and contains both new features, polish and iterations on existing features.

Here's what you can look forward to in Release 53:

• polish to Paths of Love, Truth and Courage and the addition of side quests, unique maps and backer NPC conversations 
• performance work to improve frame rate and reducing "hitching during gameplay"
• Looking for Group tool
• player crafted gear sold to merchants will appear as loot in the game
• UI polish
• combat balance pass
• player towns and housing updates
