[h2]Age of Reforging:The Freelands One-Month Sales Announcement[/h2]

To Reforgers,

Time flies, and it has been one full month since Age of Reforging:The Freelands officially launched. At this special moment, we want to share with all reforgers this journey full of challenges and growth, and report to you the latest progress of the game.

Due to the studio facing genuine financial difficulties, we were pressured to release Version 1.0 earlier than ideal. The game indeed had many issues in the early stages after launch, bringing you a poor gaming experience. We deeply understand that these problems have disappointed many reforgers, and we sincerely apologize for this and take full responsibility. Regarding the negative reviews the game has received, we completely understand and accept them - our efforts are still far from sufficient.



Over the past month, we have recorded more than 20 updates in our patch logs. Whenever we see Reforgers still actively playing the game at 3 a.m., this persistence both fills us with guilt about the inadequacies of the official release and motivates us to accelerate the fixing process. Currently, the vast majority of serious bugs affecting the gaming experience have been fixed, and we can now provide you with a smoother and more stable gaming environment. Looking back on this month's journey, from the initial bumps and struggles to the gradual stabilization now, every step has been inseparable from your companionship and support.

Recently, we collected over 300 reforger surveys, with 87% of respondents expressing satisfaction with the official version. This trust brings tears to our eyes. What moves us even more is that among the 200+ feedback submissions, over 60% of players offered sincere messages while pointing out bugs:
"The future is promising—keep going!"
"The game still has a long way to go, but the potential is definitely high."
"Hang in there—we want you to succeed."
We will keep these in our hearts as the warmest comfort during our exhausted moments.

Looking ahead, we have established a clear development roadmap:
At the current stage, BUG-related issues have been significantly reduced. To prevent recurring problems, we will gradually slow down the pace and frequency of updates, and conduct more thorough internal testing before each release. Known and confirmed bugs will be addressed through hotfixes to ensure version stability. Additionally, the studio will gradually shift its focus to balancing, performance optimization, and the creation of new content. Please trust that we will repay every reforger who believes in us with richer gameplay elements and more stable game versions.

Thank you for your support. This is just the beginning.

With gratitude,
PersonaeGame Studio
