Gaiscioch Community Notes Issue 1, 2023

Gaiscioch

Cead Mile Failte!

Congratulations folks! With such high hopes, we entered 2020 only to have our lives crushed by pandemics, murder hornets, wildfires and some of the craziest weather. In 2021 we thought, phew this had to be done but then we learned twenty twenty won. Another year past and looking back we thought we would see a rise. But instead, we got twenty twenty too. But fear not my champions we've seen the worst and the best is yet to come. For this year is twenty twenty free and the worst is behind us! 

If nothing else this year is looking really good for us in the gaming world. Throne and Liberty has its eyes set on 2023, as do dozens of other games we've been watching. Could this year be the birth of our next chapter? Time will tell, but what I can tell you is, I look forward to spending it with the likes of you.

Get Ready for 2023 - Full Release & Event Schedule!

This year is looking like a good one for both game releases and game announcements. To kick things off I felt it would be a good time to lay out the year for us so that we know what to expect and when to expect it.

Get Involved in the Gaiscioch Starkeepers Pioneer team

This January will begin a series of NDA-bound tests to try out various systems they are playing with. They will be looking for feedback from us and these will be scheduled tests limited to just a handful of our community. This is a very early-stage development test where we will be trying out experimental features and systems that may or may not end up in the final product. These are purely conceptual. If you are looking to play a finished product do not waste your time or our time. This is going to be a rough draft at best and will not be reflective of the final product.

Inside the Family

Gaiscioch Family Patreons:

Want to give a special shout-out to those members who are helping enable our community to do great things. Their financial support has allowed us to expand the tools at our disposal and maintain the community without burning a hole in my personal savings. While a still do pay a bit out of pocket their contributions have prevented me from having to work side gigs to keep us afloat and for that, I am eternally grateful. It's at a manageable level I am comfortable with. Without these Patreons, you'd be seeing a lot less of me. Thank you for keeping me in-game and focused on growing our community.

Conqueror's Blade

The Halfway Point of Season 14

Here we are halfway through season 14 with quite a bit more land than we originally anticipated. After a few of our frienemies left the area they turned their land over to us and we capitalized on the opportunity. This said we now find ourselves surrounding the capital city and we've been having fights most nights. We already had a visit from NoEvil who is currently located next door to us.

Gloria Victis Ramps up For Rollout! Join the Community!

The countdown has begun to Version 1.0 and we've got one last stop before we roll out the official launch of the game. With this past month's patch, the game became a LOT more Gaiscioch friendly extending the no loot zone to 75% of the world. You can now explore and farm to your heart's content without the worry of losing anything from your inventory. The only Lootable areas are the center of the map and the other two realms' home bases. Over the past year, they had major revisions to the combat system, crafting, the graphics engine, added a wealth of new PvE content, and improved the guild system. They still have some more major improvements coming in early January through February with the 1.0 version expected sometime in late February or Early March.

Crash Land on ICARUS with Gaiscioch

A group of Gaiscioch members is currently exploring this new sci-fi survival game freshly released on Steam. ICARUS is a PvE survival game for up to eight players. Explore a savage wilderness in the aftermath of terraforming gone wrong. Survive the Open World, complete timed Missions or build your Outpost. Explore, build, craft and hunt while seeking your fortune and prospecting for exotic matter.

Throne & Liberty Heats Up

The Hype Train is leaving the station over at NCSoft and the amount of information being dumped on is us increasing by the minute. This week a new Producers Video dropped filled with new information about the upcoming chapter contender and if they can pull off what they claim to be aiming at this could be the biggest chapter for Gaiscioch since RIFT.
