Yes, pls devs, tell me, and only me mind seeing as everyone else except Borka is leaving, where the gold is that's left .... it is my only unachieved goal and I'd so like to mine gold before you close me down for good. :(

Well, never had a golden egg either but I'm assuming they will continue on, if not, then yes pls, one of those would be nice too. :D

original isn't always for the best, it's outdated and the new one is far superior.

the characters look horrible in the current haven but hafen looks promising, only complaint i have is that the game will still lack customization from the start (unless they will let new players change hairstyle, hair color and skin color) which i doubt a little.

im tried of being the orange haired girl or the brown short haired man, i want to choose a blonde girl with twin tails or a pony tail.

farming in haven is missing the watering part, you plant seeds and it magically waters itself, am i the only one that finds this awkward? perhaps it's because i played harvest moon or rune factory :lol:

there should be a wooden watering can and have it water 9 areas like how planting seeds will work in hafen :roll:

Could have been a good idear to lower the polygones of characters and use texturing for customisation, not as far as Minecraft, but in that direction.

You do not water large fields by hand.

Large fields are watered by blood?

That would be nice.

Something like this is also nice .. but for node maps a gray-scale 1 node-point/pixel would work better.
(or just the needed raw node-data would do to. One can ask and hope.)
(Note: tumb is outdated and shows different image. 5k*5k image behind tumb.)

Is there any chance there'll be a winter biome? With snow, wolves, northern deers, and merciless frost :)

Would be neat if the new map wasn't a large box and was more circular in shape. Be even neater if we could have the world be round and edges of the map connected. A walk off one side of the map and come out on the other sort of thing to give off an illusion of the map being round/connected.

I know we're not getting the old LP system back, but with the new system, is the game supposed to be centered around foraging? Or are all activities supposed to yield curiosities that give around the same amounts of LP/h? I remember that in Haven the curiosites you got by paving, mining, chopping wood etc were all absolutely terrible, and I never understood if this was intentional or just something jorb and loftar never bothered to balance.
