Backer Beta release postponed to June
Ho there adventurers,
As you all know, the Backer Beta was set to come out in a few days. But as many of you are personally experiencing now, the international crisis is having damaging effects everywhere, and our studio has been no exception. We are projecting a delay of two to three months on the Beta, to somewhere between the 17th and 30th of June. But don’t worry! The game is coming along as quickly as we can make it, and the full release is on track.
This comes with one advantage though: while content for the beta is all in place, the delay will give us more time for refinement. We intend for the beta to be bug-free, and we have been going through a series of artistic upgrades to make our maps more beautiful. While we hadn’t planned on this delay, it does present an opportunity to iron out the wrinkles and release a better experience for our backers.
As an example of what we have been doing with visual upgrades, we wanted to show a house that our artists placed on one of the outdoor maps in the beta. We believe that small details are important to make the world of Yerengal come alive, right down to the roof tiles and windows of our buildings. Not to mention... there might be something worth investigating down in that cellar..?
A feature in the final game: Purify
We have another thing we would like to outline here: a game mechanic that we haven’t discussed before.
Deep in the wilds of Isilmerald, in hidden places, are items of great power. But not all of those items are safe to use. As Otto so unfortunately found out in our gameplay video, curses can affect otherwise useful items and cause great harm to those attempting to use them. But some NPCs may be able to Purify these objects, making them safe and beneficial to you and your party. In some special cases, there may even be quests to remove particularly vile magic from an item. Below is an image of a cursed lantern (used with the Brewing and Drying skill) before and after Purification.
Until next time, adventurers, stay safe. The Beta is on the way!
Can't even be mad at someone who comes up with a class called Crushmaster anyway.At least Corona gave indie devs a ready excuse for delays lololol.
Pillars is already enjoying a reevaluation due to the perceived heresy of BG3, so I don't think that corpse was buried long enough for it to be forgotten.Probably this game will be released during the next RPG renaissance era and, then, its UI will be an omage to the long forgotten gem of the genre, Pillars of Eternity.

Could very well be the name of the BDSM mistress that manages your balls at night.Can't even be mad at someone who comes up with a class called Crushmaster anyway.
With extra metaphysical greed. I'm curious how that system will work in practice.so is this game just a pillars of eternity clone?

But that would be a crush mistress and that just sounds ineffectual.Could very well be the name of the BDSM mistress that manages your balls at night.Can't even be mad at someone who comes up with a class called Crushmaster anyway.

Hmm I thought you guys said corona won't impact demo release time
ImprobablePauseToday at 5:50 PM
@purpleblob I said it wouldn't affect things from my end... which it hasn't, the story, quests and dialogues are all in place.
purpleblobToday at 5:59 PM
Black Geyser will not be delayed by COVID-19! Or at least the writing and community management won't.

That's not what you said
ImprobablePauseToday at 5:59 PM
Right. The writing and community management aren't. Those are my department.

I was under the impression we'd be on time with everything else, but other parts of the beta were delayed. Significantly, yes.
purpleblobToday at 6:00 PM
I'm just saying it aloud because the whole project is delayed by a year or so
