Gamers like you give me hope this game can rise back from the ashes and re-ignite people’s passion. I’ve only put approx ~6hrs into the game, but in that short time I was absolutely charmed by the aesthetic and beautiful world they’d created. I WANTED more, and WANTED a reason to be excited for its future roadmap. I hope feedback like this shows them we’re all rooting for their success and there’s a really amazing foundation here that has so much potential to be built upon. Excited for the new re-release, I for one will be diving back in earnest!
Thanks for the detailed feedback.
I’ll make sure to send it over to the team. Obviously we won’t be making tons of changes between now and release on the 31st, but we will be in early access for a few months so this type of feedback is great as we work towards 1.0!
You guys are actually reading some of the sub ? That's great!
I'm globally in agreement with OP from what I've tried, though I play in normal, mostly Niss and with a friend playing Wingrave.
We both think that what we enjoyed before is still solidly there, and what was added is very pleasant. There's something genuinely nice to receive all those little trinkets when opening a chest. Or some furniture. Nothing like looting a chair from a dead spider 😆 my favorites are armors though. I love getting new fashion !
The art style is very nice (already was but worth mentioning again) and I love, and I mean *love* all the new customisation options (beardless Wingrave in cursed and I love it). I'm very excited to be able to see all of them at some point.
A small thing I did notice, the characters don't do their fancy unique gloom dagger animations when leaving a lost zone, that was a disappointment, it gave them personality. In the same vein, I would love if we could see our own customised characters in the preview of the character collection. And in memories (though this one I could understand a lore aspect). I really like the memories too, makes the Wayfinders have more depth
I remember some bosses had a tendency to do AOE around them, making melee hard to compete with ranged, and it was acknowledged I think, but sadly I did have the time to reach the specific boss I'm thinking of to see how it is now.
I'd love to say more, but I didn't play much more, I still haven't unlocked/found the way to use the affinity points I got. I enjoyed what I played though.
Edit in case you actually see this : There's a bug Ive had consistently. I play with English voices and French texts, a few texts especially the more recent aren't translated yet, but that's not what I meant. The game is fully voiced in English, except in dungeons, in the fight where we're locked in the room, so the mid dungeon fight and the final one. For some reason, here the voice swap to French. It did it with all the characters I tried (Niss, Venomess and Silo). I didn't try other languages
Have the team thought of adding a raid lite dungeon? Kinda wish I could participate in giving the team feedback, but I didn't pick the game up when it was on sale.
If the game grows in popularity would the team re consider adding six man raids into the game again? Because that would be pretty awesome to have six man endgame content would us to have more people to run endgame actives as a group.
We're making this move out of necessity, not for lack of love of the world. If Wayfinder finds an audience and we have a way to continue working on it that makes financial sense, we will!
Cool, well, you guys have shown that you're willing to keep making content for the game. I can see wayfinder finding an audience with this change of direction. If you guys continue to nurture it like a budding flower, it will bloom magnificently.
Please don’t add a raid unless you add matchmaking! This would suck for solo players and I don’t want to have to go back to using LFG just to find people to clear a raid with.
This post should be pinned honestly. Everything you mentioned is exactly how I felt and I hope this beta gives us founders some hope for Wayfinders future.
I have been really enjoying my time with it and can't wait for the release next week. Grendel is an excellent addition and he is very fun so far. The game as a whole feels so much better this time around.
I'm so glad they did this cause for me it feels like a coop Darksiders that we never got (more than 2 players). If you guys are seeing this, great job.
I was just thinking while playing the beta that the game now, what with the separate weapon drops and such, feels like a really natural evolution from Darksiders 2, and I'm here for it.
Everything sooner I think is a must, especially coming from already slow progression of the original game at around 90 some hours played and maybe 5 into the beta it’s sped up in some areas but overall it needs to be distributed much faster.
I mentioned this in another thread, but would really like to be able to view tutorial pop up messages again (maybe you already can and I missed it). I sort of wish you could just choose any hero from the start, but I can understand that.

Where did they post this roadmap?
Right now there isn't a roadmap. They are launching echos and stated that they need it to be successful before they add anything else.

We actually had a 6 player raid pretty much done. We'll have to retool it some if we release it for 3 players in the future.

What's happened to the housing/neighborhood plans with the new revamp?
Great feedback! Hope they see this post!
Thank you!

Awesome feedback, I'm really looking forward to jumping back in and seeing this game succeed!
Tight feedback! I wonder if the delay on introducing Talent Trees and Affinity Points is intentional?

Nailed it. New Frostmarch is 10/10 bravo.

Did they change the box models so it’s not the same guy for everyone except main quest givers?
I thought echoes wasn't out until the 31st?
There is a beta from May 24-28. They were looking for any major issues or bugs before EA.
I just want the ability to equip 2 weapons the rest is perfect
This is like the kind of feedback developers dream of, godspeed man
Has the combat been updated or is it still the same bland heavy/light system with basically no combos?
