@Morgion I really like the sound of your scientific method, my only addition would be to have an in-game wrap that automatically stored each mini game attempt and results in a journal/recipe book. Once the result is known (say, ingredients= 3x. 7y, 4z, method= stirred 3 times, heated 20deg, 4 minutes , results = 90% proof Dark Berry Poison, effects= etc. etc.) you are then given the option to confirm, or delete the current batch details, so that you don't have to remember or externally record such knowledge, but you subsequently still have to carry out the known sequence correctly each time, thereby combining knowledge and skill without too much admin. Or, you could even go one step further if desired and make the ability to write a learnable knowledge that had to be gained first, in order to use such a recipe book. The possibilities are endless.

@Xzoviac Just a thought, but I think it would be even better if you could eventually gain enough knowledge to summon across all alignments..... just make it a lot harder to attend any school in the wrong alignment for anything other than a very short period. That way if you were prepared to put in the hard yards, it could eventually allow a true master summoner to infiltrate other planets with a minion for resource gathering, something that might otherwise be just too hard to obtain. I don't think it should cause a major upset if a world was not considered 100% pure to its alignment, i.e. 99.9% would be good enough. That way even Arboreus could have the odd wolf in sheep's clothing and so long as it did not commit a major offence i.e. murder , perhaps the odd deceit could be an exception.

@Specter Many thanks and congrats to all other winners: as the saying goes, "you have to be in to win" so type away.

@Kerubael why not take it a stage further and develop knowledge that lets you utilise water into steam and associated gadgets or engines etc....hey could even create steampunk items ..now that would be cool.

@muker How about an option of a spectator pass for a friend.... real time viewing of all logged in accounts with a layer that enable any in game players to opt in or out of offering the remote viewing facility. So you could hide your stash from prying eyes whenever desired. Hey, you could even expand the concept …i.e add drop down layers like guild protected viewing to teach guild members...……..I appreciate streamers already offer viewing, but not as a global facility and not everyone is that tech savvy...or am I just getting old...…... bring back the loom and bobbin, I say. There is nothing wrong with an analogue phone that a good tap won't fix.

@Farlander Foundation shows I have missed just 1 in the quests, but can't find out which one...lol

Been away for a few weeks and was great to come back and see I won in the catch up of weekly engagement draws, nice surprise. Cheers

@Crowdac It would be interesting to try open PvP as a casual to see how the mechanics of Horizontal Progression impacted such play.

Ticked Small community, but read into that a defendable garrison fortress within travel of resources.

@EvolGrinZ Agreed, would be nice to have the option.

@Thwunk Ha, I see there will are skeletons planned for Alpha now, albeit NPC: the journey of a thousand miles begins with one step.

Good to see the unity/SpatialOS has all blown over.
Hopefully timescales wont slip again.

@Gothix come to NZ we're in a world of our own .

@Gothix While I can see the appeal of playing a race that is rarely seen, as both a badge of honour and the personal challenge it will be to achieve such an accolade, I would hope there is also a tangible reward, perhaps being empowered by vital energy or some reciprocal counter when they can crusade for good in direct opposition to counter balance the Tartaros influence on Syndesia during eclipse etc. or even having "all saints days " or similar events.
if they scarce, then such counter balanced power when used against evil on Syndesai would not create unbalance but would recognise and reward past effort.

@esher Can't really get my head around becoming an Angel, not sure what advantages it will give to compensate for the locked to good.

@thwunk Like I said, 3 years is a long time in the real world, and todays announcement about Unity and SpacialOS is all part of the mix to be evaluated. Good luck guys

@dragomok bring on the horde

@dealer Think it will be demon and trying to get wolf mount before foundation quests disappear.

@thwunk never mind, just had a look on steam and assume you mean it's end of Alpha and transition to beta.

@mazikar What do you mean when you say should be getting wrapped up soon, have not played that game but is it too late now?
