    I wanna give a HUGE congrats to the dev team. I've been playing R16 all morning and what can I say. . WOW. . I feel like the play-ability of this game has been increased Tenfold. The game in general just feels more fluid and natural. I've been fighting stuff, harvesting stuff, crafting stuff. .everything is looking beautiful. You guys knocked it out of the park, R16 is a huge win in my book. Thanks!

    Aye, I've been wary of pushing people to buy the game so far. I've been impressed with the last few patches and this one especially, also at how fast you guys are at attending to the major bug fixes and the care you are taking to putting in major core features. This patch and Darkstarr's response to a question I had about scenes is pushing me toward starting to get friends, family, guildies from other games into buying SoTA now. I don't have a full review for anyone still, but I can tell them now that I feel very positive about the project and I have complete confidence in your team. I don't know how you all manage to do it, but it's very impressive and unprecedented (for me anyways) to see a game company crank out a patch with no delay every single patch.

    Very good job, and we thank you for all your hard work.

    Things are making great progress. I am quite impressed with R16 so far. It is getting more and more difficult to remember this is not a low functioning game with lots of broken stuff and keep in mind it is pre-alpha in fantastic condition! What a difference a month has made. Love the new lighting overall, though of course some tweaking is required. And even more than polish, the guts seem to be improving rapidly as well. Great work.

    I am sooo happy! I am virtually lag-free now, even in town. And the overworld map is so pretty now! I mean, I liked it before but I like it so much more now. I could just stay there all day and forget about going into the actual scenes - although the scenes themselves are much prettier now too. I'd like to just explore the map itself now. And the lighting is so much better now. I don't have to pop on a light spell when I visit Braemar in the day. I can actually see more than pitch black shadows without it. People look a lot better too. I have smooth skin, green eyes and non-glowing eyelashes :) (though the glowing eyelashes were kind of neat). It's really amazing how much you've all done.

    A big Thank You too all of you for the great job you keep doing!

    This was a great patch! The game is way more playable on my laptop. Having lots of fun exploring towns that I used to avoid because of the drastic frame rate drop.

    Just want to echo what has already been said. This patch has kicked the game into MEGA AWESOME territory. Visually stunning, very smooth, even with video settings on "fantastic". Just getting the lag spikes in Ardoris that Baron Drocis referred to - and I note that Chris is all over that! This is one more example of a dedicated and determined team who really are delivering the goods!

    And I am drooling over the Necropolis - what a place!!:D

    Only one niggle - that stinking death bunny in Spectral Mines. I have unfinished business with him...:( Gonna have to come back with a large posse;)

    I didn't make a ton of progress on the lag spike today mainly because I couldn't reproduce it. :O We'll start trying to find a pattern in who is seeing it to see if that gives us a hint but afraid some of you will have to be spikey through the weekend.

    While this is only my second release to play after joining the alpha, I must join in on the kudos!

    Highly enjoyable!
