The Dragon's Neck Dev Update


Hey folks, we've got an update on development status along with how we'll be adjusting our Dev Updates moving forward:

  • Development Status: Since our last update we've been making some behind-the-scenes design updates & changes to further support the setting. The team and I have identified some tweaks to implementation of a few things and are making some adjustments which will result in some net-gains once completed. Between that, bug fixes, and real-world impacts to development time we don't have a much to announce this month.
  • Dev Updates: For the time being, we are going to put Dev updates on a temporary hiatus:
    1. The time required to plan, write, and pull together content for dev updates takes a few hours + some more if we have discussion with the community afterward would be better spent developing.
    2. We've had some staff changes over the past 30-45 days which have caused us to modify together prioritization plans, and in the short term, dev updates are going to go on the back-burner.
    3. Our plan is to kick off developer updates again 30-60 days prior to launch, which will give everyone ample time to make a determination on their character, build, and more. We recognize that making changes to classes is going to impact player's plans, so we would encourage everyone to wait until we have that 30-60 day window in place as we will not be making any major adjustments to classes after that point beyond balancing changes.
      • The Wiki will remain accessible, however this is everyone's reminder that content will continue to be subject to change (as is typical in development).

We'll be back in a few months with our regularly scheduled programming along with plenty of showcases for everyone. We hope everyone is healthy & safe wherever you reside across the world.
