Who knows. The dev pops in from time to time saying he's working on this HUGE update but thats been since 2019. Most I've seen is short lists of bug fixes here and there. People will have forgotten about this game by the time this huge update gets released, if it ever does. I've given up hope honestly.

What, you want updates less than every three weeks? It's only a $5 game that was previously abandoned lol. I actually just bought this after years on my list and it plays great on Win 11. Nearly 70 hours and still finding things. Fires up fast, auto saves upon exit, lots of loot. On top settings it's actually quite presentable. Not sure what all the complaining is about a $5 game that a new dev decided to take on as a project.

Ummm... I'm not complaining. I was just curious. I really like this game and I check the forums from time to time to get news.

Thanks for helping keep things in perspective here.

I first bought this game in 2015 when it was built on Unity 4. It's changed ownership a number of times, and the fact that the original developer picked it back up and is *still* supporting new operating systems and working on an overhaul - 7 years later - says a great deal about their attachment and commitment to this game.

In my opinion, at least, SL is an absolute steal at its current price point. I still get lost on the big island and gaining a foothold in a new game is always a challenge. When Last Bastion starts pushing out updated content, that will just be icing on the cake.

EDIT: And Opus, it's nice to see you back here. It's been a while!

I should have been more specific in that the first part about update frequency was for you but the general 'complaining' bit was for others who seem unaware of what this really is. It's such a good deal for what you get. Even it's current state it's worth many times the price.

given the fact that the original Dev team broke it prior to handing over to them, and they have fixed some many issues the original developers couldn't and wouldn't fix I am good with it. I just appreciate the fact they have a passion for it and want to continue to make it happen.

Y'all got this for $5? While I had fun with it at the time, it was around $25 when it first released. I went back to it in 2019 and couldn't get into it but it always brings up a warm spot when I see it updating, if not a slightly bittersweet feeling too. Those Ents scared me and starving on a rock was a right of passage lol. It was fun meeting new players and exploring. I'm tempted to reinstall it right now and take a trip down memory lane but idk. One day. The only game to trigger the same feelings was Valheim. Oddly also in a bit of dev hell. Amazing game worth every penny as it was on release but they are updating very slowly. Anyways that's that this is this. Interesting history Savage Lands has.

In the old build (Unity 4) we used to stand on top of houses and pelt those things with arrows. They were *scary* lol - so were the bears. When the new islands were released, I recall standing on a boulder on the shore and pelting one of them with rocks as I was out of arrows... I think it took just about exactly 1000 rocks - and yes, I did count it! Rocks are 100% reusable as you can just pick them up and throw them again, so this was actually a valid strategy if you wanted to kill them before you were geared enough.

I have yet to figure out how to kill the big stompy things on the second island. I get ready for an attack, it would stomp or walk and then I would get frozen/stunned, Then I would be dead...LOL. I love this game :steamthumbsup:
