Have they? I see nothing that says they have. I see a website update that seemingly took months to do And that's it.

Was fun to watch you get so excited and to hype it up, just to see a website.

I'm surprised some of you are able to type shit like this after saturating your keyboard in salty tears.

Watching Convo squirm is far more entertaining than this earth shattering update they've been pumping for months.

I have history on my side. You have blind faith. I'd rather be "Salty"(in your terms) then have my head up brad's ass.

this is the shit I miss in mmos.

The Perception System
One of the most profound things about Pantheon is how we are designing the game from the ground up so that the Environment truly matters ? we want players to care about the world they are in, and why things are the way they are. When you think of MMOs, when is the last time you discovered the meaning, or the history, or the secrets of a person, place or event without being told by a text box? What if we?ve conceived of a way to bring players back to exploring because they are compelled by what they see in front of them - not because a blinking light tells them to go there? In Pantheon, Wizards will be able to perceive things that a Warrior cannot. Through prayer, a Cleric may gain insight into an area, or a creature, that a Rogue could never know. Through our perception system, Pantheon will redefine how the game world becomes known, and how players will work together to progress.

i loved melees back in the day, and i remember back in 2000, when people were still solving quests and whatnot, the biggest thing i was jealous of casters for was the spell Identify. this sounds like Identify on steroids, and actually does really intrigue me. thanks for digging up this bit.

Damn, I wasn't even paying attention. The website is the "big update"? I figured it was gonna be a new kickstarter campaign or something. Well It does look much better and professional.

Supposed to be more coming soon, will see. I am glad to see some signs of life, but still want to see if anything new has been done to the game. Game without website stands a chance, website without a game, not so much.

Not sure a KS is in the plans going forward but I guess they wouldn't rule out anything.

Dirk, not ignoring you. This is basically the beginning of a very needed fresh start. I agree this is what the original KS should have been but that's in the past. This update isn't done yet from what I understand but I doubt there is a whole lot more coming. I'm ok with the level of content. It just needs to roll out consistently now.

Website actually looks like it's for a real game now!World map is better too.

Couple of new screenshots, showing inventory now. They're 4k, so just gonna be lazy and link them. And yes, fucking Aradune, the War Wizard, with Fiery Avenger. He's never going to let that go, it would seem.

I don't know if this bit was mentioned yet here because it was kind of buried in the FAQ.
What stage in development in Pantheon currently? How far along are you guys?

We recently completed an important internal milestone. We currently have four zones up on cloud servers and are able to play, test, and balance the core playable classes between levels 1-10, including combat, travel, and the abilities/spells/stances/actions for each base class. The foundation and core gameplay elements are present. Once testing, tweaking, and balancing of this milestone is complete, we will continue forward, testing higher levels, adding more zones, and implementing any remaining features and mechanics.

This is exactly what many here said they needed to do in order to develop a game. As Convo and a few others have pointed out. I think the update is going to be much more than a website. If the above is true, we should start seeing actual detailed class info being rolled out along with gameplay videos. Their community manager, Kilsin, did say that a lot of class info would be forthcoming with the big reveal, as well.

So dont get your panties in a bunch just yet ranting about a year to develop a website!

On a side note, as I was looking at the race pictures, I couldn't help but think how awesome it would have been if the human model was displayed with Brad's face. I would have given him so much credit for being that brash.

Interesting, they apparently have received some money from an investor.

In addition to money coming in via crowdfunding, Visionary Realms received a significant first round of funding from an angel investor earlier this year. This enabled us to put the team on payroll as well as bring on additional developers. We are currently seeking a second round of funding to enable us to continue to build the team, specifically more artists and world builders. If you are interested in investing in Visionary Realms and Pantheon, click here.

I wonder how much of the first round of funding was paid directly to Brad as a cash advance.
