Video from today's walkthrough and dev chat is now available on youtube. GM Cerberus and I discuss the new UI, show how to use the medal designer and take questions from players. Enjoy!

Questions raised from this video:
Can we please get more frequent Herald updates?  (Bi-weekly would be amazing--rather than bi-monthly)
Why is the Heart beating on your UI preview?  (I just looked and it isn't in our UI)

Other Comments:
Times 14:44 = "and a skull for pirate alliances--which is awesome!"   37:20 = "piratey things"

Hopefully someone else out there starts up a good pirate alliance.
Aarrr! Thar be no better friend than making friends with a pirate!

More frequent herald updates would be ideal. We hope to be able to provide them more often, yes.

The heart is always beating on the test server. Sorry for the confusion. ;)

Wish I could expand the picture or link to the Youtube page and allow me to do it there.

Thanks for the post, the video was very helpful.

The cost of prestige for these medals is a bit bothersome for me, but I can understand how you want them to be special.

I love in the first 10 seconds, "... welcome to illyriad dev chat?"
reminds me of...
"... I'm Ron Burgundy?"

lol

EDIT:  Great chat I would have loved to ask GM Cerb some questions.  Perhaps let us know more than a single day in advance when something as momentous as this will be happening?

I would love to have asked him if he had any considerations of creating multiple possibilities for avatars.  Such an elf female clothing option for the more demure player that could be clothed in a fully covering dress (dont forget the ankles.)  Or an elf female that had red hair or different cheek bone heights.  I think the 8 current avatars are 8 masterpieces, but customization like this, I believe can help immerse players into their role as a unique character in the game.

@Invictusa - Stay classy San Diego!

I love the new interface. Hopefully people enjoy the change more than from the first version too the second :)

So the nickel and diming for items begins with the medals. The nicest things about this game was that nothing had a cost sure looks like this has or is changing fast.
While these chats are nice they do not replace the chats we used to have with the devs Thunder Cat and Storm Crow.
The uniqueness of Illy is disappearing

I don't see how your coming to that conclusion. Prestige has been around for years, all they've added is just another option to spend it on, and medals don't give any more advantages over a f2p account. It is another way for the devs to make money but I'm sure the servers arnt free and they're not forcing you to pay.

As usual I'm glad to see the devs are still actively working on illy and can't wait to see what coming in the future.

Well, if I'd ever catch a bonus prestige sell again, it might tempt me to invest a major part of the bonus into medals for players in other alliances.  Otherwise I better stick to the strategy to use prestige only for buildings.Tongue

Weird idea, the new Herald could sell recruitment ads, one day on page one for 100P, or similar...
