[p][/p][p]Save data from the previous playtest will be wiped. The V0.2 update introduces the Fate System, designed as an auxiliary mechanic to address two key goals:[/p][p]🎯 Make roguelike decisions more engaging and reduce repetition fatigue
🎯 Expand strategic freedom for players to showcase skillful plays[/p][p][/p][p]The system is seamlessly integrated into the shop phase—the core decision-making loop of the game—adding a layer of tactical depth where it matters most.[/p][p][/p][p]During the shop phase, players will encounter Fate Cards of varying tiers available for activation. These cards provide additional buffs, but activating them requires rolling dice to obtain matching point values.[/p][p][/p][p]We’ll leave the detailed mechanics for you to discover tomorrow! Ultimately, through this new system, we hope to offer players not only conventional build strategy but also diversified fun combining roguelike elements, meaningful choices, luck-based bonuses, and hands-on manipulation.[/p][p][/p][p]We’re excited to bring you a fresh experience and look forward to your valuable feedback![/p][p][/p][p]Wishlist Fighting Rogue:[/p][p][dynamiclink][/dynamiclink][/p]

[p]Greetings, heroes of the jianghu![/p][p][/p][p]Our game is returning for another encounter—the Second Playtest launches today! [/p][p][/p][p]This time, the playtest will be extended, but the experience will be different. To make testing more refined and balancing more precise, we’ve planned to split the playtest into two phases. [/p][p][/p][h3]📜 Phase One[/h3][p]Phase One begins on September 2nd. For veterans who joined our first test, it will feel familiar, as it builds upon the Feiyan Manor and Hanmei Pavilion sects from last time. The main improvements include:[/p]

• [p]Reworked several Tier-3 Relics.[/p]

• [p]Stat balance adjustments for all Relics and sect character skills.[/p]

• [p]Refined UI and text polish.[/p]

• [p]Anti-cheat upgrades and bug fixes.[/p]

• [p]Improved English localization.[/p][p][/p]

[p]For returning players, some fundamental issues have been addressed; for newcomers, the initial experience will be much easier to get into.[/p][p][/p][p][/p][h3]🎲 Phase Two[/h3][p]The second phase is scheduled to commence on a chosen date between late September and end of October. So what’s new this time?[/p][p]Do you remember the wild gameplay ideas we teased during the last test? One of them has been developed and will debut in Phase Two—[/p][p]Introducing: Destiny Dice 🎲[/p][p]●  We see this as a supporting system designed to solve two key goals:[/p][p]○ 🎯 Make roguelike decision-making more fun and less repetitive across runs.[/p][p]○ 🎯 Add more strategic space for skillful play and creative choices.[/p][p][/p][p]This system isn’t standalone—it’s woven into the Blacksmith flow, one of the game’s core decision points. When forging higher-tier Artifacts, you may be offered a Destiny Card to activate.
