DEVS DONT ABANDON THIS GAME!
I KNOW UR WORKING ON NEW GAME CALLED ENSHROUDED AND IT LOOKS RLLY COOL BUT THIS HAD SO MUCH POTENTIAL!! IM SO SAD IT BARELY HAS ANY PLAYERS BUT I FEEL LIKE WITH FEW CHANGES THIS GAME COULD COME BACK TO BUSINESS!



1. INCREASE MAX PLAYER COUNT FROM 4 TO HIGHER. IMAGINE 20 OR 10 PLAYERS INDIVIDUALLY OR IN TEAMS MAKING THEIR BASES AND GOING FROM PORTAL TO PORTAL IN AREAS

2. ADD HUNGER AND SURVIVAL (I KNOW THIS WAS LEFT OUT TO NOT MAKE GAME FEEL TOO OVERWHELMING BUT IT COULD BE DONE IN NON ANNOYING WAY. FOOD AND MAKING FARMS JUST FEELS POINTLESS IN THIS GAME) MAYBE IT COULD WORK IN WAY WHERE STARVATION DOESNT KILL YOU BUT GIVES DEBUFFS SIMILAR TO VALHEIM AND ISNT SOMETHING TO BE MAINTAINED ALL TIME

3. ADD PVP OPTION AND MAYBE NEW DLC COULD BE AROUND PVP ARENA OR PLAYER INTERACTIONS MORE

4. ADD MODDING TOOLS

5. MORE EMOTES! I WOULDNT MIND EVEN FOR MINI DLC LIKE THAT JUST TO SUPPORT U GUYS!

6. OVERHAUL UI TO LOOK LESS LIKE MOBILE GAME UI AND ADD OPTION TO SCALE UI SMALLER

7. ADD OPTION TO WALK (GOOD FOR ROLEPLAYING)

8. MORE RACES MAYBE? SUCH AS: ORCS OR DWARVES, DWARVES CAN BE JUST STRETCHED SMALLER HUMANS WITH LOT BADASS BEARD OPTIONS

10. MAKE WEAPONS FEEL BIT COOLER, EXAMPLE IF UR HOLDING GREATAXE OR LONGSWORD U WOULD HOLD IT WITH BOTH HANDS AND SWING IT TWO HANDED. MY BF IS NEW TO THIS GAME AND HE INSTANTLY FELT DISAPPOINTED THAT EVERY SWORD HAS SIMILAR FEEL AND ANIMATION


THIS GAME HAS LOT OF CONTENT, BUILDING BLOCKS AND FURNISHING BUT BECAUSE OF LACK OF ONLINE ACTIVITY AND 4 PLAYERS MAX, WHO IS THERE RLLY TO APPRECIATE YOUR HOUSE AND ROOMS? THIS IS PROBABLY WHY PEOPLE PUT THEIR CREATIONS IN WORKSHOP CUZ NOONE WOULD JOIN THEIR PUBLIC LOBBIES TO ADMIRE. THIS IS WHY GOOD MULTIPLAYER IN GAMES LIKE THIS IS IMPORTANT, WHICH IS WHY I RECOMMEND INCREASING PLAYER NUMBER MORE.

I second this!

Ya, I think the devs really shot themselves in the foot abandoning this game when they did, the game started trending and with a little more polishing I bet a lot more people would have bought it.

Instead we're left with game breaking bugs... Though I suspect they tried to fix those bugs but were at the point of burnout and wanted to work on something new.

This would be awesome!
More races, classes, new worlds and most important more different blocks! :) I really love this game and would be so happy to see more DLCs.

As far as I know the story, 505 and Tencent wanted to create more content and DLCs for this game, but the developer, Keen games said the game engine couldn't handle it. So instead 505 Games and Tencent got the rights to create an MMO Sequel that looked pretty much exactly like this. The trailer looked really cool. It was supposed to come out a year or so ago, but Tencent recently deleted any info of it off of their website, so I suspect that one was cancelled. Considering the number of people they just fired I suspect the money to develop it ran out.

i hope they can recycle assets from tht mmo for this game!! surely they can make engine run with more content its not impossible

Ya, it seems an odd response to say this engine is overloaded. I've not seen the exact quote this rumor is coming from but I suspect it was mostly just burnout among the developers.

From what I know they were commissioned to work on their new game, which is a great position for a developer because you are getting paid before the game is at the point you can start selling it.

The MMO had a lot of new monsters and such and looked like some new block types from the trailer:

Hopefully it sees the light of day someday.

I have spent more time playing Portal Knights than any other game in my library. Mostly because I played with my kids. They are nearly grown, but I'd still love to see some, well, love for this game. It really was the best fusion of 3d, RPG, arcade, and voxel building game that has ever come out.
sorry but they abondoned it.
its not like terraria where the devs say they are stopping but just cant stop updating.

Also number 1 would completely lag the game

I mean I don't own the game even though I'm interested in trying it I assume if the devs said that if the engine can't handle it that must be the case and it maybe more work for them to upgrade the said engine and it maybe less profitable which I assume is why they're moving on to enshrouded which looks cool

damn this is giving me Fight The Dragon vibes with creating your own dungeons. Another abandoned game...!

Rest sounds good except the PvP but definitely looking forward to Enshrouded.

It would be cool if they just allow modders to add to the game to keep it going for those of us who just want something new in the furniture and blocks for building and maybe for other features. Minecraft is still supported and played and I hate that game cause of how ugly is...this one had such potential!

man. seeing this and learning that it got cancelled breaks my heart. this looks AMAZING. make your own dungeon?! Ah, what a shame... I would have probably have loved this.
I wish I could create my own publishing company and buy this game and this MMO and update PK, balance out classes (bring everything up to the fighter without nerfing the fighter) and just, ah well. there's a long list of games I really like that fall just a bit short of perfect sadly.
