Looking forward to replaying this soon.

Need to finish my ME2 playthrough and then I will probably play one other game, and finally I will start with this again

I'm planning to do another assassin playthrough focusing solely on combat.
Then a thief playthrough.

Finally I want to play as a preator and loremaster too

Same, will have to schedule this for another run-through soonish.

IIRC Iron Tower was planning on supporting the game with significant updates based on player feedback until Jan / Feb.... so perhaps this is going to be the final major update? Unless the game has been selling better than expected and they decided to keep supporting it longer (which I hope).

It was already a great game when I played it shortly after release... Have yet to play it to the end because I restarted with every background.

 

[Pladio]

I don't see us fully abandoning support in a long time. With this update, the great majority of bugs are fixed, and we have quite a lot new content since the release (especially for thieves). The May update will have new content, but we haven't really spoken about it since we are focused on the content for the combat crawler. Also, it's quite possible we'll be porting back to AoD improvements from the CC after it is released, which should be closer to the end of the year.

From one of the devs on ITS forums...

What's the CC?

What's the CC?

I'm assuming they mean the Dungeon Crawler game but not 100% sure.

I wish I had found this game as much fun as I wanted it to be. Instead it felt like a Choose Your Own Adventure. If THIS, then THAT, without die rolls or chances to get extra creative or risky.

Yes, he meant the dungeon crawler. It will use the same combat system, so whatever improvements we'll add will be ported back to AoD.
