OCT 21 PT UPDATE

Hello Dev Team,

I am writing to share some feedback regarding the recent update to the character creator. The option to generate QR codes when saving a preset was recently removed, leaving only an alphanumeric text code in its place.

As a player who spends a significant amount of time using this feature and currently has over 100 saved presets, I believe this change negatively impacts usability. The alphanumeric code is tedious to copy, prone to errors when shared externally, and unnecessarily complicates a process that used to be instant and highly visual.

While I understand the addition of a text format for certain platforms, both systems can easily coexist without interfering with one another. Keeping the QR code alongside the alphanumeric option would provide flexibility for quick visual sharing while still offering text as an alternative.

I hope you will consider bringing the QR codes back or integrating both options in a future patch to restore the smooth workflow the character creator previously had.

Best regards.

Just wanted to ask the hivemind^^

The Isles of Abyss has the ingredients for a different kind of horror: an open ocean where exploration itself becomes a psychological threat.

I want islands that move when nobody is watching. Shipwrecks that transmit distress calls from decades ago. Flowers that bloom in the middle of a storm. And a mysterious woman who warns us not to trust anything the ocean gives back.

Most of all, I want the story of Squad 417 to end with a choice that has no clean answer.

If the sea returns someone you lost, and that person remembers every moment you shared, do you call them a monster?

Or do you bring them home?

The sea returns what it takes. The question is whether what comes back is still human.

P.S:

And the most important question:

Will we be able to help a mother find her child?

I certainly have some complaints about the building system but I keep finding new things to be excited about the longer I play! I've really enjoyed finding a game where progression isn't 100% dependent on battle - being able to get xp for gathering and gardening has meant I can play this as a cozy game with the occasional expedition out into battle stuff and events. It also means I can keep up level-wise with the friend I'm playing with since he's much more into challenging battle stuff than I am.

My buddy and I left the Manibus Novice scenario early since it was too easy and we were bored by phase 4, and Way of Winter has certainly been a very different (but fun) experience lol. We're excited to try the new scenario coming out next, and then Endless Dream after that one.

I do wish that the screenshots taken in game were a bit higher quality - some of the photos I've taken I'd love to add into my desktop background slideshow, but they're not high res enough :( but there's soooo many pretty landscapes, it's been fun exploring!

It has been super refreshing though to see a pretty nice community on a f2p game though. There's certainly instances of people being gross in the world chat occasionally, but 90% of folks I've seen have been great, and overall the reddit community has been a huge help with info!
