The universe suffers a great deal of whiplash as it advances from 3025 to 3050+. Basically, it's the result of the writers shifting from a 'in the grim darkness of the far future, there is only Mad Max style FrakenMechs left because everything has been bombed to shit, and your 'Mechs are barely functional patched together 200+ year old hulks fighting over the last scraps of fallen empires' to a noble bright 'look, thousands of new 'Mechs and dozens of new designs walking off the lines within five years, and everything is getting better if it wasn't for those Clanner scum coming to take over!'

Well, I wouldn't expect any new guides until the C# version is released, as the full overhaul of the UI and a lot of the mechanics will mean full new guides will be needed anyway.

The good news is that Steve is (slowly) playing his first test campaign on the new version.

I want to stop getting emails =/ I want to start playing again.

I’ll take a look when I get to work and see if I can help with that.

*edit* OK, it looks like if you haven't played for a while, your subscription is set to 'Locked'. If you go to 'Change subscription level' -> You can set it to 'Casual', which allows 4 characters active. At that point, your characters should become unlocked and you can retire them.

You can also go to Profile -> Edit Settings, and set your e-mail notifications off.

*2nd edit*

A while ago, fighting abandoned nobles was a good way to slowly pick up experience for troops in ways that wouldn't end up with half of them dead. I'm not sure if that's still the case - boredom is another good reason.

Not to mention, they were presenting a shitty pay to win dime a dozen mobile game* to a room full of hardcore PC fans who were expecting a new PC game.

*Maybe they'll come with something inventive, but come on, the iTunes store is already flooded with a million Diablo clones. A real Diablo game will just sink into that sea without a trace.

... The game is all about you. All the dialogue is your character’s actions. The kingdom is your creation. How, exactly, are you a ‘side character’ in all of this?

My complaint is that I wish you could use the mercenary companions without giving up all the companion interactions. The party becomes really lifeless if you take too many mercenaries.

We're a cat? And our ship is a transparent box with a big window at the front?

Ship name: SS Terrarium
Character: Captain Mittens

Pathfinder doesn't have multiclass XP penalties. You won't get your favored class bonus (locked to +1HP) unless you're leveling the class with the most levels in your build, but that's it.

The Arcane Trickster prestige class is fairly well locked down by Octavia. 1 Rogue / 9 Wizard / 10 Arcane Trickster is ideal, and only takes one feat (Accomplished Sneak Attacker) to avoid having to put any more rogue levels in.
