I'm still in the 'not sure' phase on the revamp. I'll likely still play around with SWL, but if I'm still able to play around TSW with my old characters while transferring some version of them over to SWL, I might just end up playing around with both casually.

Not sure if I'm doing something wrong since this is kinda new to me, but trying to log into the beta after the last wipe and it's not letting me back in and saying my login credentials are incorrect. Did things get wiped to where I have to make a new beta account or am I screwing up somewhere?

Richard M Nixon posted:Sounds like he's saying that if steam manages the install, it's nuking the old version and installing some other client. If you're on steam, can you grab the client from the tsw account page? Checking my Steam, it does show a recent TSW update going through, but double checking the game by logging in, it's still the old TSW so who knows what the update was.

Richard M Nixon posted:I'm not a steam expert, but the appID entry for TSW was updated to SWL, so I'm thinking that maybe Steam will see it as a single game. I'm not sure what happens to existing content, but if you check the history here it looks like the game was just renamed and given new tags, but Steam will still see it as the original entry. There might be something to that since when I go to the Steam page it tells me I already have SWL in my library and when I look at my library, it's still TSW.

Len posted:I hope SWL launches with a golem event. Considering I hadn't a clue what the golem event was in TSW and only ran over when people were calling for more to help out, I ended up having quite a bit of fun with it. But then nothing in my world events in a game experience had me shooting away next to a naked guy wearing a horse mask and someone running around in a bikini with rabbit ears packing an AK.

I don't know if anything's been said yet or it'll be in the dev stream, but does anyone know how they're handling any transferring over of characters? In TSW, I have one of each faction, but if we're only allowed 1 character in SWL, I'm debating just making a fresh character just for SWL and keeping my others all on TSW. Would this even be possible under a single account or not?

Richard M Nixon posted:I'm playing for the story too - I'm here because I'm going to want more story and SWL is the only place to get it. There isn't new content yet, but it's being planned/written so we may as well get comfortable in the new game. That's pretty much how I feel about it too. I'll still keep playing my TSW characters, but I'll be considering my SWL character the 'trailblazer' so I have a better idea of how to do things in TSW.

Sjonkel posted:Since you can only have a single character to start with: How does the initial class you choose matter? As far as I've understood, you get to choose any weapons you want later on? And ditto with faction, is it just for story elements now? I'm not sure if it's a glitch I'm having or not since I haven't bought anything in SWL, but when I logged in a bit ago, my character select screen said I had two more slots to use.

Pryce posted:They apparently gave 2 slots to all existing/former players: The only reason I've got the three characters in TSW was for the separate faction stuff. Since from what I've seen, stuff like the faction quests are gone so why bother with multiple characters especially if you've found a weapon set that you like and works well for you.

Does anyone know offhand if they tweaked some of the quests? When I did the Rolling Downhill quest in TSW, I caught up with the wendigo quick, blasted it dead, got the package. Doing the same quest in SWL, it had me chasing that drat thing around most of the coast before finally being able to kill it. More annoying as gently caress than anything.

I'm currently trying to knock out the Jack's Back quest and I've gone to the first pumpkin field with the shed and killed off all the ghostlights and the quest doesn't advance. I'm assuming that's the bug out point for the quest usually being bugged, right?

I'm definitely looking forward to the increased AP/SP, Marks and Faction missions, the rest...I don't know. For me in TSW, the only reasons I had a character in each faction was for the Faction missions and different handler commentary. I also really liked that you could keep filling up the abilities wheel and eventually unlock all the deck costumes. For those reasons I am still puttering around TSW. For the most part I don't mind the leveling thing with SWL, but I keep going back to I miss not being able to skill out everything for the costumes. I am enjoying the hell out of my gunslinger. She's definitely one of my most sturdy characters with only dying when I had to for the white ravens thing and once to the boogeyman when I got stuck on some door geometry at the wrong time. If they had it so you could still earn the other deck costumes somehow, that would be the dealmaker for me and I'd stop with TSW. I know it's lame, but I freely admit to being an addict in playing pretty princess dress up with my characters.

Morglon posted:You can't outlevel the last thee but I suspect you can solo them too when all your gear is mythic. So far increase in power has been insane from green to purple. Considering I solo'd Polaris and ended up getting a case and a half of distillates for my trouble, mythic gear's going to be years in the coming.

I'm also one of those who gets put off completely when the hard sperg numbercrunching comes out. I will admit that the skill wheel along with knowing there's no traditional leveling is overwhelming at first. But there were deck build guidelines right there and while some of those might not be great, they were still at least something to work off of to get an idea of how the wheel worked. If my usually clueless rear end could figure it out pretty quick, anyone can figure it out.

Meskhenet posted:That being said, i'm actually enjoying the story so dont mind. Event he dungeons are ok, though the limit of 10 keys per day sucks balls. I'm mostly waiting for the Wednesday patch since while I certainly will use the approximate case worth of distillates I got, I really was hoping to get a talisman for one of my empty slots even with being overleveled for the dungeon. I'm also rocking the pistols/shotty combination and it's been so potent a combo I feel as if my gunslinger should have a backup band following her playing some badass hero music for how well she cuts through mobs barring the named ones that need a group. Even if SWL was doing the awarding AP/SP like TSW to eventually fill all the abilities, I'd still be using pistols/shotty maxed out when spending points elsewhere to just unlock costumes.

I genuinely love the setting which isn't a surprise for how much I love horror films. It's too bad it didn't really take off in TSW. I do wish I had been able to go lifetime sub when they had the last offer of it, but I didn't quite have the funds at the time. If they ever offer it again, hopefully I'll be able to go for it this time.

Fruits of the sea posted:I've bumped into the space limit now, where I don't have enough anima to upgrade items, hence I don't have the space in my bags to collect rewards, so I can't get more anima from quests. Got to trek back to Agartha every time it gets filled up. Going from what dabbling I've done with the Museum, it feels more like an endgame thing with TSW requiring the X amount of AP which fits after you've filled out the wheel and have it to spend, and with SWL where you're sitting on a small fortune in shards.

Kokoro Wish posted:Some days you want to wallow in beautiful, ordered chaos. Others you want to hear Kirsten Geary say something sociopathic. Pretty much this. My only reason for having one of each faction in TSW was for the different quest texts, faction missions and recruitment mails you get occasionally from the other factions. The mail from Sonnac to my Illuminati about visiting London to soak in tradition made me smile.
