1.3 mega patch.

Update 1.3 is live! - News - Warhammer 40,000: Rogue Trader

roguetrader.owlcat.games roguetrader.owlcat.games

some highlights I noticed.
  • Multiple new cutscenes and a major rework of some old cutscenes;
  • Major increase in availability of conviction points;
  • A lot of new voiceover, including companion banter, voiced cutscenes, etc. Fixed problems with many voiced lines and pronunciations;
  • Many narrative updates on colony events and a rich selection of new rewards for them;
  • Multiple encounters have been redesigned and made significantly more challenging based on community feedback;
  • 12 new Force swords were added to the game;
  • Updated character models for Heinrix, Abelard, Kibellah and Argenta to better match their portraits;

This is on sale right now on steam. Seems like they improved it a lot since launch. Worth picking up now or will it be even better in another year?

Wondering the same. If I should drop the $55, everything included -- all dlc. Or if maybe I should wait another half year - year, and then hope it all settles down to below the $20 I usually like to spend on a game.

Also, I should note, I'm not a big WH player. I tried earlier in life, just couldn't get into it. Thinking about trying again, with this game.

Basically just repeating what I've said before.

Great game, in a pretty solid spot now. get the DLC for sure. it adds greatly to the base campaign.

however, has limited replay imho. so, it might be worth it, to wait for all the DLC is out, for that single playthrough... (which creates the problem of, if everyone does that, no dlc will get made, cause owlcat can't afford it. )
also, game balance could still use a few passes. its too easy to get overpowered. which is the good kind of bad balance I suppose. but, man there is a solid tactical game buried under the OP everything. I do think it would be a much better game if it were more challenging.

Ive been replaying Xcom 2 with a shit load of mods this xmas, but I wish the cover system that xcom 2 has had more weight in this game. I mean its there, but not enough of an impact like it has in xcom 2.

All that being said, its one of my favorites of this year having played it twice now. ITs a must purchase for anyone that likes tactical ARPG.

so the DLC becomes part of the base game and not something to do after you beat the game? Guess I’ll keep waiting for the second DLC to come out in that case.

Yeah but who knows what the next one will be? Maybe its like their other games, like an endless dungeon end game. Or a stand alone "island" like in WOTR? Who knows?

How much more DLC is there supposed to be? I almost pulled the trigger on it during the summer sale but I kind of felt like waiting for a better deal it was a better option, but if they're pumping out DLC the same way they did for wrath of the righteous, maybe I'll just hold off for the definitive edition.

Just the one more announced. dunno how profitable RT has been. its clearly not the big hit Wrath was. so, no season2 announced yet.

this is actually slightly faster then Wrath of the Righteous.

jan 2025 1m announce for RT. dec 2023 release date. 1 year,1m

jan 2023 1m announce for WotR. sept 2021 release date. 1year, 3m

so, about the same. 1 year. ever so slightly faster for RT.
