Forthcoming Forgotten Gods expac - what we know so far Part I

Started off this week’s stream with a look at how those gargoyles Allminoxy was working on a little while back are coming along.

Nice eh.

Then we saw Grava’s test level where he’s scripted all the quests for the new expansion. Believe it or not, they’re all in there somewhere.

As for questions/answers:

EN4CER_X : What type of work does crate outsource?
we outsource a variety of things based on scheduling need and load
sounds we 100% outsource to our buddies at skewsound

Flavourius: @Zantai_GD tell me that this is going to be one of the eldritch nemeses
haven’t decided what the eldritch nemesis will be yet

DemonikCurse :does eldritch nemesis split into smaller versions of itself that heal?
he will split into smaller versions that cast nullification

it’s probably about as big as the rylok
the horns give it a few inches I guess, haha
I suppose I’ll have to talk to the artists about chopping these up for gear…

Flavourius Zantai_GD so if there will be an eldritch nemesis, have you figured who’s going to be named after this time from the crate team?
not yet

vekongnito :how much will the new game mode make Grim dawn replayable?
new shattering game mode is made to be pretty replayable

BourbonBandit :Any plans for extra shared stash space? Plsssss
we’ll add another tab
artist managed to squeeze those buttons down

mauric1us :Grava will you get involved in medierra’s project after FG ?
he’s already been involved in the other project
princexavier123 :what about u zantai are u involved?
I’ve made some random contributions but nothing huge
I’m almost exclusively on gd

lykre :Has there been any discussion of adding a Veteran equivalent for Elite and Ultimate?
incredibly complicated and messy

DemonikCurse :any chance you change crucible to show mutators before starting wave?
no, that would require some major changes to the crucible setup

Flavourius :@Zantai_GD any info about XBOne release? after FG I assume?
xbone release, depends on when the xbone code changes are ready, then we need to make some tuning adjustments probably
it’s not really fixed on when FG is out

DemonikCurse :can you add an option to connect directly via IP in multiplayer?
not likely

sunblaze31 :who actually comes up with those awesome constellation ideas?
I guess I’ve done the last bunch with medierra’s sign off
the base game was a mix of medierra and me

mauric1us :so is yugol a creation from a god?
mmm, no

ormith28 :@Zantai_GD does resistance to life reduction affect boss attacks that do % health on attack
yes

Smaraud :how do u decide how many affinity points goes into each constellation
how do we decide? with science!
Caerbae :does that science involve rolling a d20?
more precise science!

And Grava finished off the session by showing us two more of the new constellations: Yugol and Azrakaa.

You can see them here:

And a possible quest spoiler was a suggestion for a quest requiring players to cough up the exact amount that Crate raised in their Kickstarter: 537,515. Don’t be surprised it it makes it into the game, Grava seemed quite taken with the idea. So best start saving up that iron. :stuck_out_tongue:

And if anyone missed Allminoxy’s arts stream it’s on YouTube now.

Also Zantai showing us the new movement runes plus some new music from Skewsound.
