Yeah I'm done with this game ever since they banned me from the Steam Forums for voicing my opinion on how I didn't care for the game.

Thanks for the tip on Shroud. I'll wait until they release the next major revision, then give it another look. It looks like I'd really like it, but I do want it to at least have a first pass on the polish side of things.
Side note: Speaking of the first trilogy, I've actually been looking at Caves of Qud (just due to its similar dungeon-crawling appearances). It looks like it could be fun in that early CRPG sort of way.
Did they ever end up getting a single player story in place? I might grab this but only for offline play and depending on how good the story is.

Direct stream link - https://www.twitch.tv/shroudoftheavatar
Same premise as last time - its a good idea to spend at least $5 from - 12pm to 12am, not just during the stream itself - and you get all the unlocked good stuff Last month we made it to 90K (I was really looking forward to that 110K reward that sadly we didn't unlock...I hope they'll put it in the game later at some point). This month's theme is Tropical! Here are the rewards...
- $10K: /rainbow
- $20K: /wardance & /hula
- $30K: Leaf Backpack
- $40K: Palapa

- $65K: Polynesian Axe & Spear
- $80K: Large Tiki Heads with Flames
- $90K: Polynesian Bow plus two other Weapons
- $100K: Polynesian Daemon Themed Armor with Full Helm
At time of writing (5:30 CT its around $30K thus far)
Stuff on the add-on/cosmetic store is at least at 20% discount on sale, so that's nice as well. Also, the stream has a nice amount of giveaways for those interested . Anyone who has any questions feel free to ask them here, or check out the stream to see a bit more of the game
WTF did I just read?
"Lol. Taking the wtf cake with that fundraiser? $100k in real money for armor? Hell. Star citizen is only asking $27k for all of their ships
How is the single player story mode coming along? I hope to eventually grab this.
Er...vanquishing? In what way? You can absolutely vanquish your enemies! There are multiple types of weapons in the game including blunt weapons for one hand or two. One great thing about the talent/XP system is that you can level up pretty much any skill in the tree through use; there are no class-based restrictions. I'm sure at high enough level and/or with good equipment and stats you can one-hit certain enemies
Oh, hehe. I should have clarified my post a bit. In OG UO, vanquishing weapons were the top tier damage types. People tended to not train up two handed wepons due to them being slow. I always rocked 2 handers, due to the fact, that when you landed you usually 1 hit peeps. Perma red people hated my ass.
Vanquishing halberd coated with deadly poison was the way to go for PVP Open up with a Corp Por and then one hit was usually all it took, lol.
Xaeos, do you have copies to give away still? I played UO religiously back in the day (stopped not too long after T2A came out) and I've been curious to try SotA.
Ohhh that's right back in the UO days hehe. You know I'm not sure if there's anything specifically like that right now, but considering that Richard Garriott is behind SotA as well, I would not be surprised! There are frequent updates to various game systems after all!
I've not really checked into the PVP side of the game but there is a system where players can drop certain inventory items/equipment that is not "bound" to you. I even recall reading that attempting to steal from a player character, if successful will either grant you some of the money they have on them or an item from their non-equipped/bound inventory! Of course if someone notices you stealing or you go PKing around a lot you'e going to get on thee criminal list with aggressive town guards and whatnot ; there are real consequences. This reminds me to look into it...
Colonel Sanders - Let me check to see if i have any more - there's one of mine I intended to gift that seems to be "stuck" to my account for the moment so let me see if I can work that out . However, I can certainly put your name on the list and if anyone else is interested don't hesitate to ask!
Have you looked over the SotA pages and /or forums? There's a lot of neat info there on the various release announcements, news posts etc... on the main site. There's also some good info on Twitch/Youtube channels of past dev chats and livestreams.

Yeah, I don't think I have patience anymore for PvP. Back in the UO days, myself and 6 buddies all lived together in a house with the fat dual ISDN line. We all set up in the living room and played UO for a whole summer. This was pre VOIP days, so all of us playing in the same room was brutal on the competition in PvP. We seriously wrecked shit. Fun times.
When I get some free time I am for sure checking this out. Looks fun.
