A lot of game play info that clients need will be made available on a website, a few
weeks prior to release, which will give them a chance to read all about it.
There will be custom progression maps layed out on the website that players will
want to reference from time to time.
It's a very different and unique type of solo progression server that just may prompt
players to "expect the unexpected".
I apologize, but my desire for discretion has nothing to do with "dev secrets", it's all
about wanting to throw in some in-game suspense for the players.
I have already long anticipated that this kind of server won't be for everyone. Once
all the details are released, I am 99 percent confident of "mixed reviews".
But to be perfectly honest, it's something that will either walk, run, fly or crash. We
won't know anything, until it happens.
In latter part of July, website, forums and discord will be made available.
No worries dude, not offended. I'll keep an eye on the project and wish you well.

Thank you.
When it comes to "player feedback", suggestions, etc., the beta release will welcome
"some" input, but it won't be looking for the common "auto-toon", quality of life input.
Because of the way the server is setup for it's game mechanics, some sterotypical
functions are customized, such as how the players aquire spells, skillups and even how
they get around, as well as how they level and progress in the game.
Some servers, they do an initial "alpha release", which many times can/will involve
an eventual character wipe. I don't want to put the server in that postion. I am treating
the beta release as the time to gather input, interest and feedback for the server
and, whatever changes/edits need to be made will be done with as little interruption
as possible.
