[h2]Past Fate Patch 0.4.4 is now live[/h2]

[h3]The latest patch is focusing highly on optimization and fixing of major bugs that prevented some of the players from playing the game.

We have also remade the game's world chest system and their spawns. Players should now be able to find dramatically more chests from the world. Chests have now between 45-minutes to an hour respawn time and they will give players random loot from the loot pool and huge amount of experience. Keep in mind some items are more rare than others, making it rewarding to open up chests.

This patch also adds more immersion to the world as some NPC:s are having conversations between them and some enemies have custom sounds of their own when engaged in combat.
