How much of a change will I notice?
« on: May 10, 2024, 03:39:23 AM »
Hi all, I've been an occasional player of Aurora over the years - sometimes invest a lot of time, then don't play for years. I last played in 2021 and was on version 1.13 (just prior to v2 I believe). Basically I invested a lot of time in a game on that version and rather than start again I was thinking about going back to it - my question is, how much am I missing out by not upgrading to the latest version?

Cheers

Legemaine

The change list for each version is sticked in the mechanics section. Just read through them in ascending order, starting with v2.0.

v2.0 and v2.2 are the major updates.

Hey, about a month ago I was just like you!
From the time C# dropped until right around the time 1.13 came out, I put in thousands of hours of playtime.
And I just recently got back into it, with 2.5.1.

You are missing out on quite a bit if you don't upgrade.

I actually went through the changelogs first and wrote brief notes about the major changes, to help me process it all.
There's a whole lot to like. Not just new content, but also plenty of QoL tweaks that make a big difference.

I highly recommend making the jump.

Rakhas and Raiders are new enemies that certainly change the game.
