Shroud Of The Avatar Introduces Outskirts, Reveals Summer Telethon Details
This week’s Shroud of the Avatar newsletter talks about Outskirts which are areas near starting zones that players can use as staging and resupply areas early in the game. The addition of Outskirts will lessen the need to go back to the starting areas thereby avoiding all those annoying loading screens.
“Our first Outskirts scene is Solace Bridge Outskirts. It is downriver from Solace Bridge where the Solace River meets the ocean. The small army that was defeated at Solace Bridge has retreated here and sent on the villager refugees to Soltown. They have made camp in a ruined tower overlooking the swampy shoreline. However they are not getting to rest in their retreat for a nearby bandit camp is preying on them, stealing supplies. Plus across the river lie the ruins of an ancient village infested with the very undead they just retreated from! We hope to have this scene live in Release 41 or 42.”
The newsletter also includes the detailed schedule for the Summer Telethon which will be held on May 31st, including a list of the stretch reward goals planned for the telethon as well as a list of prizes to be given away to viewers.
