Some newbish questions

[THEMIKEBERG]

Hello!

I backed not too long ago, and briefly played the tech demo. Today I came back and gave it more of a try, there are still many things I need to do however I’m really interested in the future.

Currently trying to find people that give out quests seems… Difficult? I cannot figure out how to describe this, forgive me on that.

Currently it seems like I need to speak with every NPC to find out who gives quests and who does not. Albiet I found that most NPC’s have something new to say everytime, in the real world though I don’t ask every person I see if they know of someone that needs help and is willing to pay me for it. Usually I would go to a notice board.

Seeing as this is a tech demo and alpha right now as it is, is of course very acceptable. I’m just wondering what finding quests will be like in the future/full release. I really hope I don’t have markers plastered all over the place however I’m hoping us as players will be given some sort of obvious “sign” of a quest. Surely not all quests will be available from a notice board, but certainly somethings like “blacksmith needs supply run” would be on a notice board, which could lead to the blacksmith giving you the name of a man who needs help training troops or whatever.

Sorry if this has been answered already I’m having a bit of trouble finding the answer for this.

Oh and I think this is my first post, so hi!

Summary of Quests in Alpha (0.4) WIP

This topic serves to list all quests in the game (ahlpa 0.4) I have assembled all quest I could remember and written short vague description so it does not spoils the game much but still helps you if you are stuck. Introduction: Because this is alpha version keep in mind that quests may get broken. You can find summary and map marker of the active quests in quest log. NPCs with bigger quest can be found on map as little goldstars. There are also indicators of active quest on the compass. A…

The main quests are marked on the ingame map (with stars).

Maybe, this is interessing for you (discussion about quest markers):

Please, give us option to play WITHOUT quest markers

Hello guys, I don't know if this was addressed before, but anyway it is important, at least for me. Personally, I don't like quest markers in-game. They are too arcade IMHO and make the game too easy. Playing without quest markers is a lot more demanding, but also a lot more rewarding - you have to listen carefully to dialogs, read your quest log and think your way. Better than just follow some arrow on the compass, is that right? To have a game work without quest markers, the devs should devel…

Hello Themikeberg, welcome to our community and thank you for your support.

Yes, it is not easy to find every quest, you have to look around and you have be curious to find about them.
However, the game also should be fun, so we need to find the right way about it, and we think we will.

Usually I would go to a notice board

But most of the people would not be able to write…

Warning: The Quest guide I made is only for 0.4 and somethings are different in 0.5.
But it might give you some idea where to look for quests.
