[h3]Greetings, Prisoners![/h3]
I hope you've been enjoying your saunterings in the strange world of
Dread Delusion. We're excited to put out a rather large content update, with a focus of deepening the Faction systems and giving players more to explore and see. So let's get started!
[hr][/hr]
First up, we've added a
sprawling mine complex to the underbelly of Hallowshire, designed by the fantastic
Aaron Taecker-Wyss. This not only adds a more intricate dungeon-space that was lacking from Hallowshire, but it provides a new way to gain crafting upgrades for your weapons!
Speaking of which,
crafting has been overhauled. You will now need more ores to upgrade weapons, and we've added a shiny new weapon tier;
Emberian.
(
Please note that, because the Emberian weapons are meant as late-game upgrades, they're pretty hard to obtain at the moment. Hard, but not impossible.)

Speaking of resources, across the Oneiric Isles you'll encounter
a new resource, encased in an
emerald conch of sorts. These
'Godlets', as they're called by the locals, can be used as a currency to
further your standing with factions.
(Cute little buggers, aren't they?)

Next up we've added a new flying island to the skies of Hallowshire. This is ruled by the mystic
Wikkan Coven of the Worm and features a bunch of nooks and crannies. Expect more peculiar denizens to pop up here in the future, including a moth-related deity...
[hr][/hr]
We've also added a load more
lore books to the world, and each one features a bespoke illustration by the amazing comics artist
Artyom Trakhanov, whose style is simply sublime. I've been following Artyom's work for a while now, and the chance to include his work in the game is really humbling.
[hr][/hr]
And that about wraps it up for this post! There's still
a lot in store for the future of
Dread Delusion. We've been listening closely to the great feedback our playerbase has been giving the team. Mechanics like music placements, stat-weights, and player interaction are just a few of the things we've been looking into, so stay tuned!
And as always, please post any issues you come across or feedback you may have in the
Discussion Forums.
