First Player Hits 95! Development Continues Focus On Itemization!
So what lies ahead for Nevergrind Online? Many key roadmap goals have been finished within the last month, which allows me to stay focused on itemization. Of course, treasure hunting is a big part of Nevergrind Online. What fun is taking on the toughest challenges if there aren't big rewards to match? So keep an eye on the Nevergrind Online Roadmap to check on my progress!
Once that is completed, I can start thinking about other exciting features such as talent trees, crafting, and perhaps even an auction house!
