Upcoming

A lot more Quests and Achievements work has been done, there are several completed progression questlines (augmenting tomes and crafting passive effect replacing the enchant), with some new ways to get rewards from quests also implemented (unlocking crafting recipes, unlocking talents). Quests, Achievements, Talents, and Affixes will probably come together in the next major update once we've parsed all the feedback we've received on affixes and hooked up the rest of the game to the new systems and tested them. Expect playtesting to recommence soon^tm!
