    Looks like they are hoping another week will make the character creator presentable.

    1) Intrepid employees taking Steven back to the pvp dunk tank with a new combat demo.

    2) Character Creator that shows some more sinister looking model options.

    3) UE5 demo of something we saw previously being updated into UE5 graphics with a before and after showcase.

    4) Seafaring/Naval demo.

    5) Elaboration/depth into class archetypes.

    Which is kinda frightening if you think about it.

    What can be done on a major component like the character creator in a week that's going to make THAT big of an impact to it? Any component to the character creator that makes it not presentable might need weeks or months to fix.

    Let's hope it's just Steven's perfectionism

    Personally, I was resigned to seeing the character creator in April or May once they missed presenting it back in February. For this specific situation though, I think they can be given the benefit of the doubt. They typically do their dev updates on the last friday of every month. For March/April of 2022, the way the dates work out, that means they would be giving 3 weeks of prep to March and 5 weeks to April. The date change means that's shifted to 4 weeks to each.

    Perhaps that should've been planned for. Maybe they didn't even delay it for the character creator. I don't think it's worth thinking too hard about. It's just a reminder that Intrepid Studios historically over-promises when it comes to delivery dates.

    3- Duels showing new talents on the spell bar
    4- Someone becoming corrupted and the bounty system being activated
    5- Alpha 2 timeframe... even something vague like this summer... or end of year around the holidays...
