So I know that this is not the kind of question you want to hear, but honestly, I must know this more than anything else really: When will Secrets of Grindea be finished? I'd like to get a rough estimate.
We've given up on giving estimates, as we are terrible at guessing how long it takes to make stuff! As we're only 3 people, small issues like someone getting sick can delay our progress a lot, too. So, rather than giving an estimate we can't keep, we'd rather not give one at all! Sorry
- Will the game feature more languages in the end? I'm german and when I play the game with my brother it would be nice if he could understand everything.
Instead of making translations ourselves, we have a translation tool (which is currently being reworked & improved as we speak), which allows fans of the game to make their own translations. Once we've finished the rework of this tool, you'll be able to browse and use translations directly through the game client!
- If you play with a friend, do you have to play the entire game with your friend or can you also play alone?
Nope, you can play any of your characters both in Multiplayer and Single Player!
However, if you're the one joining a friend, only your level and gear will remain, while you'll have to redo the quests. We're currently working on a feature which allows you to skip quests you've already completed in a Multiplayer game. Also, this doesn't apply to the person hosting - his quest progress will be saved.
- Did you get inspired by the legend of zelda series?
Yes, very much so! One particular source of inspiration is A Link to the Past for SNES
- I don't know how the static touch magic skill works. When you have the cubes, what determines wether the cubes attack or not?
The cubes trigger when you hit something with normal attacks! There is a slight cooldown before the next cube can activate, however, so if you spam the attack button it'll sometimes cause you to attack so quickly that the cubes won't trigger on every hit. Also, the cubes won't activate if an enemy dies before the added damage has been applied.
- Will it theoretically be possible to maximize ALL skills and talents? How high would your level have to be?
Theoretically, I suppose so
As for the level... That would require some math skills, and I'm afraid I have none
- Can you catch some kind of rare fishes too?
Every area has their own set of fishes, some of them more rare than others. Once you've found all fishes available in any specific area, you'll unlock an achievement telling you that you've found all available fishes there
- How much is there in the beta, compared to whats planned for the game?
We currently have 2 dungeons and there will be two more, with surrounding areas + a special final dungeon. In terms of side quests and other side activities we have no set limit or goal, so we'll just keep adding them until we feel like there's enough
