Very happy about the latest update, the gist of what I read between the lines was Magic Vs. Steampunk, which would be very cool! These factions have already been created on the forums and to see them in-game is going to really bring life to this game. I am choosing Magic all the way, but I can see how Steampunk will be pretty cool.
Maybe it even depends on your character - what is tech & steampunk for one character background, is magic for another one? Could be interesting if the way the world looks like and works depending on your beliefs and your background.
