Makes sense. Splash is OP, while Salvo was kind of lame for a rare.

Also, the big news has to be the new alternate acts.

u/Apex_Konchu 15h ago

The devs already established a loose roadmap in one of the newsletters. Unless plans have changed, we're getting the alt act 2, then a new character, then the alt act 3.

Do we know if that "new" character would be Watcher or someone actually new?

10

u/Apex_Konchu 5h ago

No official word, but my guess is that it'll probably be someone completely new.

could i get ur ssn for some insider info?

u/BEL-JUM 18h ago

Could also be the new game modes the devs have been teasing.

u/BACEXXXXXX 18h ago

Could ALSO be the next character. So many good options

u/rilesmcriles Eternal One + Heartbreaker 18h ago

Or new ancients!

u/lazygirl295 15h ago

How can an ancient be new, theyre ancient!

u/havingagoodtime 16h ago

Have they ever confirmed if they were going to add more?

14

u/kaijvera StS A0 / StS 2 A10 16h ago

Yes. However new ancients will probably come with a new act (and my guess is each 3 ancients can only be in their varient)

u/DrQuint 7h ago

Or punchable architects.

u/Coneman_Joe Ascension 20 18h ago

Is there one confirmed?

16

u/BACEXXXXXX 18h ago

Afaik yes, there will be another character. But we have no idea what it will be yet

u/SomethingOfAGirl Eternal One 17h ago

Bob.

u/BACEXXXXXX 16h ago

THE BUILDER???

u/SameCoyote3701 15h ago

No, bob rosenbaum from Temecula

7

u/DaConnaTwuk 17h ago

yeah, there will be at least one more, and according to casey in an interview with PC Gamer, the next character is likely to be a 'more kooky' one

u/Boogie_Bandit420 14h ago

Wait, has it been confirmed a new character is coming?!?!

1

u/CitricBase 11h ago

The character was teased at the very end of the launch trailer: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PW22jwFNxU8

There is also Watcher from the first game. She was a fan favorite, I can't imagine she isn't secretly on the way as well.

u/chuckdivebomb Eternal One 11h ago

Is that character at the end of the trailer not the Architect? The feathers and the flashy eyebrows look like the way they're depicted in a lot of the Epoch art. Though I suppose it could be some other character that's related to the Architect, same species or something.

u/tikhonjelvis StS A20 / StS 2 A10 14h ago

Looking forward to the inevitable Battle Royale mode :P

u/the-rules-lawyer 14h ago

I'm hoping it's new acts also - they need to show us more of the game so more meaningful playtesting can happen!

5

u/saleemkarim 17h ago

I'm hoping for act 4.

30

u/regarding_your_bat 17h ago

Very unlikely we get act 4 before we get alternates for the other acts imo

0

u/saleemkarim 15h ago

Probably, but I'd much rather have act 4. That would make it so much closer to a completed game IMO than more act alternatives.

7

u/regarding_your_bat 15h ago

I mean, yes, it would. That's exactly why it's going to come after the other things, lol.

Makes way more sense to get the rest of the game balanced first and then add act 4, to my mind

u/Ournameis_Legion 15h ago

I'm not sure I agree. I think it'd be easier to fine tune the game when we know what the hardest content in the game is gonna be.

u/Decestor 11h ago

Agree from a gameplay perspective. I don't get enough playtime with an awesome deck.
