The Chill of Ravenloft is now available for Pre-Purchase!

[Greysidious]

Despite all the previously mentioned issues, I am happy with my purchase. This game has a history of things like this on release, so I expect it. However, it also has a history of these things being fixed. I like to enjoy the wonkiness before it's fixed. I get a few laughs from it.

Things like AP Tome and Completionist not working atm does not bother me. These things are minor to me as they do not have a huge impact. I know, I paid for it, it should work, blah blah blah. No different than buying something from a store, getting it home, and the item is damaged, defective, etc.

POSITIVE: I love the Dark Ressurectionist's cosmetic! Great job on the design!! Now to find one that I can wear to work for Halloween this year!!

Has issues with the Movement:
Female Eladrin (Chaosmancer LR'd), Female Purple Dragon Knight, Female Deep Gnome is impacted by this.

Female PDK and female Dark Bargainer are the two I've noticed it on.

And it's not just local to my view, others see me as glitching too.

 

[svenofnein]

Unsure if this was reported back on Lam, The Mistwalker Movement Style has an issue with a Female Eladrin (Iconic Chaosmancer LR'd) and jumping on the spot (not moving) as it causes an animation glitch as though the character is hoping constantly. Have tried on Male and Female Aasimar Scourge and Tabaxi Trailblazer without issues. (Limited time for testing at the moment).

Animated screenie in a mo.

Aasimar Female, Human Male are fine. Checking others, editing in a moment as I go through them...

Female Deep Gnome is impacted by this.

Male Eladrin (Chaosmancer LR'd), Male Bladeforged, no issues.

Female Purple Dragon Knight has issues. Tiefling Scoundrel no issues.

almost look like they are getting bent over and handled roughly - seems somehow appropriate.

One Ultimate Fan Bundle for me!

Okay, serious question now. Seems the chest ransack reset can reset every chest, does that mean there is an easy access to current chest ransack information and a /chestransack command be made available?

 

[Metalhedd]

Anyone know how to get your face back to normal once the cosmetic morphs you into a mongaloid?

 

[Felsyn]

preordered so that it is fair when I start complaining

First you limp to the side like your legs was broken, shaking and twitching kinda like you was smoking.

Sorry. This doesn't help me make my buying decision. Please confirm if the rare loot mechanic is applied to this expansion.

Admission by omission.

I think I´ll wait this one out and buy it with points sometime in the future.
Nothing from the collectors or ultimate edition is even remotely worth the added price over the standard one (for me)

 

[Frieling Slyhand]

I have bought all ultimate expansions since 2020 when I started playing.

This time I will wait and buy with points if at all.

The unwillingness to answer basic questions about loot drop and the inclusion of another abusive loot mechanic in this expansion has turned this loyal customer off.

Wait, are you serious here? I'm gonna refrain from saying what I think of SSG.

I did state what I think of SSG ... and my post was DELETED.
The original #61 in this thread wasn't by WaxingLyrical, it was from me ... proving SSG is as thin-skinned as a leper.

 

[l_remmie]

Of course.

CALLED IT Already said when they added "rare" loot, that SSG was going to sell Ransack Reset items soon, instead of making the
drops normal, so they could gouge everyone in new ways, and still somehow pretend they're slightly concerned about players anymore.

That is an easy call.

It's not like they just came up with the idea to do it though. There has always been a demand by whales for any pay to win methods.

The change is that these things now get greenlit. Game quality, integrity and consumer trust are just not part of the business model anymore.

The only question I've frequently heard being asked is how rare the loot will be this time. Could you add that to the faq?

One potential symptom of Hansen's Disease is skin thickening; thinning is not a symptom.

Hey Cordo -

It might be *extremely* helpful if you send out an in-game mail when you purchase an expansion pack with instructions on how to get everything you just bought...

 

[paddymaxson]

"Potion of Loot Ransack Reset x2 (Account Bound, 3 Total)"

Oof, the very fact that ransack reset potions are a thing that exists suggests real bad things re: loot rarity

Now you can pay for the privelege of spending astral shards rerolling that chest another 72 times!

Disgusting.

Well, some may laugh at this, but I cancelled my sub and uninstalled yesterday.

Between rare loot, the new augment system (which requires us to buy more toolkits than ever before), all the little things that are making this game an ever-increasing money grab, and everything that is released without working as intended, I just can't see myself playing anymore.

I've been so frustrated with SSG lately that they've given me no choice. It's time to move on.

For those happy with the game, or those as frustrated as I am but staying, I wish you the best.

Cheers.
