Hello!

First off, I would like to apologize in advance as this message has been written with the help of a translation tool, which might cause some comprehension difficulties.



Moving on to the main point, this announcement is to inform you about a change in the appearance of the player character.
Initially, when developing the game, I aimed to design the player character in a simple and clear manner.
This was done to reflect the game's light-hearted atmosphere and to ensure easy identification of the character, especially since it is a top-down action game.




However, as you can see from the previous image, I realized that making it too simple might give off the impression of a lack of sincerity towards the game.

Therefore, I have decided to redesign the original 20-year-old male character into a 20-year-old female character, as shown in the image below.










I truly appreciate your interest in the game I have developed.

Thank you!

We're deeply grateful for the support you've shown us since the release of our game. It brings us immense joy to see so many of you diving into the world of Zoria and embarking on this adventure we put so much work in. Your feedback has been invaluable to us. Each comment, suggestion, and critique is a stepping stone that helps us improve and grow. We truly appreciate your active participation in making Zoria the best it can be.

As a small development team, these reviews are more than just ratings for us. They provide us with insights into what works, what doesn't, and what could be improved. They help us understand your perspective better and enable us to make necessary adjustments to enhance your overall experience.

With that said, let's get to the Patch Notes and things we fixed!

⚔️We are aware that some players encounter a soft-lock combat bug at the end of the combat. We have tested intensively the fix in patch 1.0.1 and believe that the issue is resolved. We will keep testing for any potential issues, please let us know if you encounter this issue again.
⚔️ Using Wizard Ice Wall ability during combat no longer causes a soft-lock in case of a character dying near it;
⚔️ Ability buffs are properly removed from the UI after the end of a combat;
⚔️ Enemies in “Chamber of the Forgotten” now match player’s level;
⚔️ You no longer have to be left forgotten in “Chamber of the Forgotten”. You will be able to exit location after completing the quest;
⚔️ Lancer class resting bonus (gear repair) no longer requires items to be broken;
⚔️ Fixed problems with various quest not completing or disappearing from the quest log as expected;
⚔️ You can now complete the “Lost recipe” quest;
⚔️ Fixed some localization issues;
⚔️ Slightly increased distance between followers in formation;
⚔️ Fixed issue with binding of E/Q keyboard keys. We work on improving support for more key customization feature for future patches.

We're already working on a bigger patch which will address the quality of life improvements based on the community feedback and reviews.

If you happen to come across any bugs, please let us know about it by using this form [[url=https://forms.gle/nB5t2MnB7yHFp1S4A]link[/url]]. By filling out the form, we will learn firsthand about any potential issues and it will be much easier for us to track and solve them. Thank you!

各位大侠好，
在上一周的爆料中，胖某表达了江湖2获得版号后激动、忐忑的心情，并聊了下未来江湖2客户端、移动端的版本计划！（点击查看）

而今天，在全面准备正式上线之际，胖某想来跟各位大侠推心置腹的聊聊《下一站江湖Ⅱ》的一些缺陷、制作过程中的遗憾、以及对未来的期许：

1、动作打击感：这的确是我们目前的弱项！虽然已集中精力调整了快一年，但是比起其他动作游戏（虽然我们定位不是魂游），我们这块依然有较大差距！

目前已采用优化方案：采购了动捕设备请大神录制，当前动捕动作仍在调试中（不过，实话实说，根据我们分析，主要差距还是来自于底层动作的技术积累不够）



不过，还请大家放心！我们会坚持调优，这代做不到就下一代，总有能实现的那一天，毕竟我们上一作还是回合制！

2、剧情优化：从一代开始我们的剧情就饱受诟病，这一代我们痛定思痛：成立了文案中台、大幅度加强剧情的内容优化。

成果：

1）已完成核心将门豪族的百万字主线框架，以及高达70万字的支线奇遇；我们自己评估算中规中矩！

2）如何进一步提升？

a)在文案中台的基础上：后续所有身份线比如“逃婚千金—逃婚的我竟然拯救了天下”这一身份线我们诚心聘请优秀网文作家（起点均订过万的作者）执笔

b)量大管饱：所有身份线都是百万字主线+数十万字奇遇，开放多结局

c)缺点：过程就稍微慢了点，我们做完一个就放一个资料片出来给大家

3、美术设计：是白玉京团队永远的痛！长期被各位大侠嘲讽20年前的审美！但是无论如何，我们尽力用好各种引擎、光学物理、3D后期，尽量用理工直男的力量来拯救！（真心希望有设计大神能参与我们后续设计）

4、难度：我们的作品目前开放了三种难度，新手入门的确会比较难！因为我们想还原一个更真实、自由、开放的世界；那就意味着从出生开始，你就会面对超级多的内容和选择，我们目前在尽力优化这点，还望各位大侠海涵！

还有太多的缺点与遗憾无法在这小小的篇幅给大家一一展现，我们后期会在我们自建的攻略资料站同步BUG/建议/进度的实时表，坚持优化！
当然，除了缺点，从上作至今我们也有很大的进步，最核心的便是：这一次，我们往真实的武侠世界大大迈进了一步！

（场景：从沙盘地图到无缝开放大世界）





（轻功：从简单跳跃滑翔到针对不同物体的多样反应）





（战斗：战棋回合的简单动效到即时战斗的动捕、物理特性等）





（剧情：从上作的总计百万字剧情到本作的每一条身份线都超过百万字的多结局）





我们想告诉大家，无论有再多的缺点，我们是真心想把江湖系列一代接一代做下去！这三年，我们没有躺平，没有打酱油！



最后：
四月，我们不见不散！让我们见证《下一站江湖II》的成长，一起在这个江湖中，创造属于我们的故事。


《下一站江湖Ⅱ》是白玉京工作室“下一站江湖”系列中的第二款单机沙盒武侠游戏：
★★★ 坚持纯单机、无需联网的游戏体验
★★★ 坚持买断制+DLC收费
★★★ 坚持创新迭代：无缝开放地图+市井江湖
★★★ 走自己的江湖路，圆大家的武侠梦

说武，说义，说英雄！谁是英雄，下一站江湖！

Hello dear players!

As you might remember (or not) from an earlier announcement, the demo was not supposed to land on Steam until more content was finished. But as the game was featured in Steam events, it only made sense to let people play it. The events overall were a success. A small one, but it helped Voice of Flowers get noticed by many more players.

Now with both Baltic Showcase and Metroidvania Fusion events finished, the demo will again be pulled out from Steam until final demo is ready, or until another Steam event. In the meantime you will still be able to play the game on itch.io.

The next demo version is dubbed Haunted Tundra Demo. It will take place in a remote snowy region and feature much more locations to explore, 2 bosses and new magic spells. Here's a little sneak peak of a new area (WIP):


Note that the demo has no precise ETA as of now. If it happens that the game will get featured in another Steam event before the new demo is finished, the desert demo will be pulled once again.

The "final demo" is the next planned demo version after Haunted Tundra and it will be the last one content-wise. It's still far off, but the plan is to have it available permanently before and after the game release (with occasional feature updates).

The final demo will feature 4 "biomes" and the beginning of the story the way it's intended to play. The content is mostly finished, but it needs lots of polishing. It's the famous last 5% that takes 95% of the time ;)



Further plans will be announced once the "final demo" is finished. For now the itch.io version is going to be updated with the new Steam content (including achievements!), so people that missed it can still play it. And the current small demo has surprisingly many secrets.

If you want to keep closer in touch with the development, chat with the developers or other players, or just can't wait for more content and want to wait faster, join the official Discord server.

Once you exit the game, your save file will be synchronized with the Steam Cloud.
You can then play the game on any different device and quickly resume where you left off!

CHANGES

• Bestiary unlocked. The basic stat information of the enemies you have previously killed can now be viewed here. (Enemies that have been previously killed but do not currently have save data may appear locked)
  
• The Flying Seal ability no longer fires from a fixed position.
  
• The Banish system has been changed.
  
  • The right to choose items is not lost when Banish is used.
    
  • When banished, the banished slot and the item in that slot are deleted.
    
  • If 3 slots are banished and there is no reroll or skip, the right to choose items is lost.
    
  • If reroll is used, 3 new slots are recreated.
• Some changes have been made to the cave map.
  
  • Small stone spikes that caused a lot of blocks and were very difficult to see in the midst of chaos have been deleted or moved to more ideal locations.
    
  • Large stone spikes were moved away from each other in some positions if they were too close.
    
  • An additional connection path has been added to the corridor northwest of the map's spawn point.
    
  • Added a passage to the dead end northeast of the map's spawn point.
• Altar quests are now also affected by the difficulty multiplier.
  
  • Obelisk Altar health increases with difficulty multiplier.
    
  • Blacksmith Altar health and health regeneration increases with difficulty multiplier.
    
  • NPC Protection Altar health increases with difficulty multiplier.
• Added Tier 2 Rune of Knowledge. (Experience Gain)
  
• Added Tier 2 Rune of Fortune. (Luck)
  
• Rune of Fortune increased from 3 levels to 4 levels. Price reduced from 7000 to 5250.
  
• Book of Fortune reduced from 5 levels to 4 levels.
  
• Luck stat now increases directly by multiplying by the item weight instead of adding to it. (For owned items only)

I'm happy to announce that we are upgrading DF2's servers tomorrow. These much more powerful machines should make the game a lot more responsive and improve stability when higher numbers of players are online. However in order to complete this upgrade it will be necessary to take the game offline for up to 4 hours.

The servers will be turned off on Wednesday 13th at 7pm UST (3pm EST) and we expect this downtime to last anywhere from 2 to 4 hours. If for some reason it takes any longer than this we'll keep you all updated via our Discord.

Fish amid stunning waterways and mighty canyons when the South Africa Reserve releases March 26 on PC and consoles.


Bond with friends whilst exploring South Africa's diverse biomes, immerse yourself in the challenge of catching 16 native species (13 of which are brand new), or complete missions at the newly introduced Fishing Hubs.
Wishlist now!
https://store.steampowered.com/app/2500370/Call_of_the_Wild_The_Angler__South_Africa_Reserve/

South Africa's beautiful waterways are home to 16 unique species, including 13 all-new discoveries like the African Sharptooth Catfish, African Mottled Eel, and Spotted Bass. Go catch these new species, adjust your technique based on their habits and characteristics, and feel the thrill of the fight as your skills are put to the test.


Complete missions and hone your skills at the newly introduced Fishing Hubs. Exclusive to South Africa, Fishing Hubs present a new way to improve your fishing techniques. Visit each Hub, tackle their individual missions, and earn exclusive rewards inspired by the reserve itself.

Fishing is more fun with friends. When you purchase South Africa, not only can you invite a friend who owns the base game to join you for free, but this offer also extends to our other reserves too!


Experience the breathtaking natural beauty of South Africa as you discover stunning landmarks, explore the prehistoric Dino Park, or navigate through mighty canyons and vast savannahs. All while discovering picturesque fishing spots, peaceful vistas, and learning more about South Africa.


Also coming on March 26, the free 1.6.0 update introduces Vehicle Storage, a Customization UI Overhaul, Fast Travel to Vehicle, and more. Read more below!

Here’s a snapshot of what will be arriving with the free update:

Vehicles will act as your portable storage. Avoid unnecessary trips back to the shop and swap out your gear on the go from either your boat or 4x4.

Dev Note: Having to go back to the Shop to access your storage or even swap reserves so you don't lose your fishing spot (yes, we know!) interrupted the fishing experience, so we've made the storage accessible from your vehicles at any time.

As we've expanded our range of cosmetics for your avatar, the old list-based customization menu has become bloated and unwieldy. To remedy this, we're adopting a tile-based menu so you can clearly see everything you own and instantly switch to what you want without having to scroll through a long list.

Dev Note: Out with the old text based lists! In comes a new customization suite that has icons for players to easily see their item collection.

You'll be able to fast travel to any of your spawned vehicles within a reserve whenever you choose. Getting around has never been easier!

Dev Note: We love exploring the beautiful reserves, but sometimes you want to get around quicker and spend more time fishing. Fast traveling to a vehicle is possible by selecting any vehicle currently spawned from the map screen.

Stay tuned for more details soon!

We’ve teamed up with our friends at Dare Drop once again to create an exciting campaign filled with activities. More information about when this Dare Drop event kicks off will be revealed soon!

Join Jaxy on Wednesdays at 6 PM CET / 12 PM EST for The Tackle Box live streams. We might even take you on a short trip to South Africa ;) Catch us on Twitch and YouTube – you won’t want to miss it!
