Glorious Alpha Two Testers!
We are in the Alpha Two Phase II testing which will take place 5+ days each week.
Alpha Two testing is scheduled to happen daily until January 13, 2025 at 10PM PT. We will have periods of downtime for hotfixes and daily restarts happening at 2 AM PT for NA realms, and 2 CET for EU realms.
Starting next week, Alpha Two realms are scheduled to be online for 5+ days a week from Thursdays at 10 AM PT to Mondays at 10 PM PT. Alpha Two realms are planned to be down on Tuesdays and Wednesdays, and for daily restarts. Alpha Two realms will also be brought down as updates and fixes are ready.
You can download the game launcher here and we encourage you to join us on our Official Discord Server for the most up to date testing news.

Addon or mods programming?
Will there be any way to make addons? I am mostly interested in crafting enhancements like bookkeeping, marking interesting items, resource locations etc. As a programmer i might create them myself.

In one hand: the more people you have working on a thing, the more diversity you're going to get. Thus, the more likely it is that players will have access to something which actually appeals to them. This is a good thing because it helps ensure community happiness.
However, on the other hand: in order to allow the creation of Add-ons, you open up at least some of the back-end Coding to the community which is sure to get abused. Not maybe, not what-if, it WILL get abused.
In the end, I'd rather learn to live with what's available than deal with the potential abuse: hacking, trolling, etc.
also allow us to increase text font size for quests/tooltips/chat
And my opinion - the addons take away the effort and a need "to work out for"/"discover on your own" something over time and in some ways make the game way easier then intended by the devs. So i am against any kind of such and similar things in the game.
