@Xzait ah I understand now!
Yes I've read the anticipation about it but I know that another blog post should come out before the alpha, explaining exactly that, so I guess we just have to wait a couple of days for it.

@Bernu what do you mean with regions that affect city sieges?
Do you mean different biomes impacting on how sieges are conducted?

@d3Sync putting too much meat on the fire, none gets cooked.
There's a road map, there are high priority features, so while it can make sense to discuss stuff like drinks it makes less sense if they are planned but just not right now.
Until you know what the development direction is on a certain matter you can only speculate, when maybe the team already has an idea on that topic, but it might be too early to discuss it while a lot of core mechanics are still lacking.
That said I'm not against talking about it, but I understand why people might want to keep discussions focused on what is going on and not what is planned for a distant future.

@Zori well if that happens we know who to blame now...

@OgPulsar welcome to the forum!
As @Jimbolini says you'll have to wait a bit longer than tomorrow, but here we come anyway!

@LOOM welcome to the forum!

@Grimmharlequin welcome to the forum!
I think your position is the same as the rest of us here, hype at maximum!

@Mirgannel12 each skill has 6 activities, and completing 2 of them you can learn the first level of that skill.
Since you can do any 2 activities for a skill, you can skip the killing one.
If you want to level up your skills to max level you need to complete all 6 activities though, so some killing will be included.

@Zaxaman as @mansair said you will be able to play alphas when they occur, next one is on 31st March and it should last about a full month.

Steam version is currently not available, since the game is in early stage and Steam community is usually really harsh towards unfinished games, realeasing on Steam could easily backfire in a second.

@Mirgannel12 I'm not sure it's explicitly reported anywhere, but I would suppose that each character unlock its skills independently, otherwise the concept of restart from scratch would be messed up.
You could basically respec by creating a new character and having stuff already unlocked.

For what matters skills unlocked by not killing, since each skill has 6 ways to be unlocked it's unlikely that for a given skill half of the points require kill a creature, so I'd say all skills will be unlockable without killing something.

I think I've read somewhere something about hiring npc guards to protect cities, but I don't remember how deep the mechanic was discussed.

@flledge welcome to the forum!

@Ezenkrul welcome to the forum!

A month usually, sometimes longer, it depends on how it goes I suppose.

@Nakawe welcome to the forum!
Each supporter is a brick in the wall of success!

@Xulu it's normal to lose interest between testing phases, life goes on, it happened to me with some games I've backed and ended up never playing actually...
That said, for what I know:

1. You can have crafting stations at your house
2. You can farm materials even if you don't belong to a city
3. No update on other planets yet

@anasfract I think every news can be seen on the main site blog or via Youtube videos, wiki editors grab their information from there, so if there is no new content there is no new info I suppose.

@Colt once I was all "I prefer to buy on Steam" myself, then I started understanding that Steam takes a good cut of money from that, thus leaving less for developers, so when the game is also sold directly I now prefer to buy it directly.

@KingLlama welcome to the forum!

@Ostaff I might join you on that mighty quest!
