The new Solasta campaign was released yesterday morning, though I'm a bit busy with FFXIV's new patch at the moment, along with the fact that I intend to do a blind multiplayer run with the tabletop group I'm in, after a few other members of our tabletop group are going to take a hiatus for FFXIV's new raids starting next week.
Taking a glance at the Solasta discord, it looks like the devs increased the prices of some magical gear sold in shops by double or more, since many of them were pretty overpowered (and by late game you were usually swimming in gold anyway).
Interestingly enough, people giving them shit in jest prompted one of the devs to say the following things...
okay that was funny lol. I love the 'yea, we know guys, our faces are ugly' haha. As shallow as it seems, the look of the characters was one big reason I didn't pick up the game. If I'm going to be looking at close ups of my characters in cut-scenes and they're super ugly, I'm going to grimace every time.
