Rise Eternal
Well, is "Rise Eternal" entirely dusted into the grave?
(pun intended here)
If so, I'm disappointed, because the promise of an expanded story was what was keeping me from playing this game.
Not so interested in multiplayer.

If the full fledged additional campaign is not possible, maybe there is a possibility of making lore based events in maps for entirely single player people, like myself, like some other 4x games have done?
p.s. I'm trying to be entirely positive here.

There are two challenge maps with short stories in DLC, hopefully will be more of that eventually.

I'm just interested if "Rise Eternal" is entirely "dusted into the grave" or not.
Would be a bit sad to "not see" it.

Why is a full fledged campaign not possible ?

I don't know, have you seen mentions of it in "roadmap 2.0"? I haven't. I'm just wondering about the possibilities here.
(and it sure was promised before)

There will be more news regarding our Roadmap (as those things are in constant flux and change) in Q1, and although I can't promise news regarding Rise Eternal specifically I can promise news in general!

They may be having budget issues, which is probably why the DLCs are high priced (for the content) despite the user feedback they got.

They said campaigns are too costly to make, but I think people would be just happy with scenarios that progressively follow a storyline.
They don't have to make the cinematics and all that extra jazz.

This sure feels a bit ... suspicious.
Sorry for doubting you, I just seen too many developers running away and burying promising things in the dust.

When I asked about it I was told that Rise eternal is partially done, they just refocused resources for new factions as it's the most demanded content from played base (and bigger demand promises more cash influx of course)

No wonder when "tale campaigns dlcs" brought so much negativity. Same people who complained about campaign dlcs that"nobody wants" now complain about new faction dlc as well btw.

Rise eternal of course is announced on steam, people have it in the wish list, I don't think developers can take that back, they have to make do eventually, but the game is so small they can go under radar postponing it "indefinitely" probably.

I would personally like to see Rise eternal to be done and released between now and Roots faction, if sales do well maybe they can mix and rotate old and new road map. I don't have my hopes high tho.

At least there could be lore based events on in-game maps that can tell about the new world parts and new factions that feel immersive. Without "extra cinematics" and other shiny things, as One Man Army said above.
p.s. And sorry for writing too many messages.
p.p.s. I think lore based events on maps are sure less costly in terms of production value, but I may be wrong.

They gave us 2 half assed options. DLC with no new factions but a campaign or a new faction and no campaign. There is no right answer there. Just 2 half baked cash grabs for a game that used to have massive potential.

If they don't want to put the work in then we are not obligated to blindly support them.

There are 3 maps that focus on new faction and give lore about it.

They gave you option with small campaign DLC and bigger expansion. You whined about that because no factions.
So they dropped campaigns and gave you faction. And you are whining about this too.

As I speak for myself, I was very excited to see "Rise Eternal" announcement back in the day. And I was really hoping to see it.
So you can forgive me for being a little bit disappointed.
