Hello everyone,
Today we've got two pieces of news we'd like to talk about: the results from our Opbot origin story vote, and a brief update on the upcoming April playtests! We're also debuting Opbot's portrait, picture above, and we hope you like it!
Opbot - The Story So Far results
When you chose Opbot DV8 to be the hero from Dungeon of the Endless to join the cast of Heroes in Endless Space 2, you didn't know which mysterious circumstances had allowed it to traverse time and space and somehow, millennia later, to get on the map again. Two weeks ago, we asked you to decide what had happened to him in-between Endless Legend and Endless Space 2.
Here are the results!
*Drumroll*
And the winner is... Rogue Uplifter!
Rogue Uplifter
Class: Corporate
Faction Type: Primitives
Operating an early recon mission, Academy scouts were exceedingly surprised to discover that a promising species of pre-sentients had, within the span of a few generations, gone from huddling in mud hovels to trying their hand at space exploration. Investigating this extraordinary technological leap, the scouts eventually met a battered robot who introduced itself as Opbot DV8. It explained that after drifting through space for quite a bit and subsequently crashing on this planet, it was rescued by the natives. As they were friendly but of limited intellectual reach, Opbot decided to help them "get there faster," and declined to share more details on the process.
Playtesters selection process
We are finalizing the selection for our playtest session on April 3-7! The lucky few will be contacted before the end of the week. Thanks to those of you who volunteered, we had way more applicants than expected! The selection process proved tough, but once again if you're not lucky this time, fear not: the playtest session will be conducted on Update 3, which will be available by that time already!
More on that topic... soon?
