Statistically, we look at things like Achievement Unlocks. Even now, when you wander the expanse of Braided Shore, remember that all roads lead to Kasa, and that there are rumours of many ways to find passage to the city. All of this work is made with the intention to pave the way to Kasa. The Prologue is a ground-up polish of Book of Travels as you know it, with new stories and mysteries as well as an expansion of the existing lore. We are not prioritizing the Prologue over the City, they are part of the same journey - some of which is already in the game as mentioned above. The Prologue is the path to the great city of Kasa. This requires tweaks around item descriptions, changes to Gossip etc to nudge players along without drawing a big arrow saying “it’s over here”. We have hired additional writers to deliver the content in a more fluent way whilst still trying to avoid hand holding. How do we encourage you to find things that we know you have not yet found? There are over 150,000 words of Lore and Story. The new Roadmap is aimed at solving some of these negative issues whilst unlocking new content for those players we already have as well as showing that there is a story in the content already live. There is Zero content - it says as much in the title. Conversely we have players who have spent hundreds if not thousands of hours in the world exploring. As it is early access people consider it a “demo” with nothing to do except look at pretty graphics. We have dozens of negative reviews where people played for a few hours, found nothing to do, and then reacted negatively. The downside of this is that sales suffered because people say there is no content. We always said we would not hand hold in this game. It is important to understand what we are trying to address. The following is the team's response, worded by our COO Joe: We anticipated you having questions about it, and for the last couple of days we've listened to what you were asking most frequently. Earlier this week, we posted an updated roadmap to the Steam store page.
