...well, at least until SK developers finally decide to release an ACTUAL update itsead of costume promo boxes that contribute only to losing players and killing SK for once and for all.
No giveaways, sorry. It isn't a quitting thread, but informing that I am no longer playing.

I like the community, but would be better if something new would appear. Just look at Testing Feedback forum. We post in stickies about them, always on topic, but it is ALWAYS reverted to the state when Vohtarak posted in opinion about Gunner Update thread.

TL;DR: Returning to SK whem devs finally stop feeding us with useless promos.

Go ahead and do other things. Promo updates don't prevent actual content from coming out, but rather act as bridges between content patches and events.

Several people can't see past that, but if they're leaving over a lack of new content (still loads of old content) then it usually means they've burnt out their playtime on Spiral Knights already.
We'll see you around.

Something needs to keep the

Something needs to keep the game alive, and that's promotions. If anything, it's a good thing. I don't believe for one second these promos hog any significant development resources. Just gotta be patient. The next update is the Arcade Redux after all, it's no small project!

those guys are right but...

Some of the recent promos are pretty bad ,yes resking are fine and good but at least add some original content to the promos to actually keep the players busy with getting a fair variety of promo items

the thing called 'bridge' between events should keep the players 'busy'or visually occupied by seeing something new' or a good reskin .
autumn is the reskin theme ? add dead leaves in some sections of the armor; small details makes so much difference at times.( this doesn't even take much time to do )

Bonjourhippo@ yup the arcade redux is very slowly being worked on.

A little out of topic but are they still working on the mobile game ?

Got dropped sadly

Rise of Knights was scrapped sadly. Think it's downloadable until the end of the month? Not 100% sure, but it isn't going anywhere forwards. Hopefully any assets made for that game can be re-purposed over here (probably as promos).

theres a reason why my comment sat there for a long time...

when all things to test are done and the test server is closed theres nothing to discuss
if the testing is down so is the forum topic for it

yeah, we should be getting the arcade redux some time maybe this year, probably not but its something to hope for

promos are mostly old costume code with new colors, so if the developers are actually working on the game, the art people need to stay occupied, I think promos themselves are ok, but spamming them isnt
