New Build Is Live - Patch v1.200
31 Mar | 1:00 pm

Hey everyone,

We return to you with another round of updates, this time the focus being on performance improvements and save game files. Controllers received some love as well, fixing inconsistencies, updating UI, and squashing bugs that pertained to them specifically. We also reworked the Extras Menu due to requirements on certain other platforms, though admittedly, its functions are much better now, allowing you to listen to tracks of the OST there and check out other extra content you own.

The New and Improved Extras Menu
30 Jan | 10:00 am

This week we’re excited to show off some recent revamps of our UI that we’ve been working on, namely a rework of the Extras menu point in the game’s main menu. The most important improvements here entail the ability to rewatch all Vagrus cinematics, including the main campaign’s intro, as well as the story trailers of Old Acquaintances and At the Heart of Ruin, our upcoming DLC.

A Review of 2024 and Happy 2025
30 Dec | 10:00 am

Fellow vagri,

2024 is coming to its inevitable end and so we are closing the books on this year’s adventures as well. For this occasion, we thought we’d look back on the past year and list some of the things that happened around Vagrus before signing off.

How It Started

We kicked off 2024 with a post about our plans for the year. In retrospect, wanting to release smaller bits of content at intervals while developing two very content-heavy DLCs with our tiny writing team was wishful thinking. Why it did not exactly pan out like that also involved a lot of other factors, like the many, many other aspects of the game we’ve worked hard to improve. Also, it seems that there’s no such thing as “smaller bits of content” when it comes to Vagrus. With millions of words worth of written content behind us, everything is interconnected and adding things can be very tricky. Also, players now expect meaty additions, so just any odd small story just won’t cut it. Still, this effort gave us Clandestine, so it was not in vain.

Location Artwork – New Taverns
29 Feb | 10:00 am

Following on from last week’s post about music, this week we’d like to take a look at a place that is often no stranger to both ambiance and music: a tavern. We commissioned the new tavern art last year to diversify the many inns and watering holes of the game world. A combination of complementary hues, subtle lights, and peculiar ornaments make up this painting by Péter Kovács, which is used in a variety of locations in Vagrus’s major expansion, Sunfire and Moonshadow.

The Soundtrack of Vagrus
22 Feb | 10:00 am

Today we’re going to focus on something essential to most people’s lives, and indeed, to the entire gaming industry: music. When we set about creating Vagrus many years ago, we knew that we wanted to place immersion first, and one surefire way to create and maintain immersion is with ambiance and music, of course. And so it was that we came to know the Humming Composer: the very talented individual responsible for Vagrus’s original soundtrack or at least for the core game. It is an hour long and includes eighteen tracks ranging from eerie to determined to ominous to downright sinister.

The Most Dangerous Ruins of Terra Supra – Part 2
05 Jan | 11:00 am

Following on from our earlier post in October, we now present the second installment of our ongoing series, ‘The Most Dangerous Ruins of Terra Supra’. This week we’re taking a look at three more of Xeryn’s most feared and dreaded ruins, several of which once stood as proud loci of a formerly glorious civilization, before the Calamity’s fallout wrought unforeseen destruction and corruption upon the Riven Realms. Without further ado, let’s delve right in!

Project Update - Zeli Introduction
25 Aug | 10:00 am

Our post last week featured James, one of our recently hired writers. We hope you expect the unexpected because today’s post is about Zeli, a recently hired writer! Both of them have joined Lost Pilgrims at the same time, so their tasks have been essentially the same: working on the Glossary, reviewing existing material, delving into the rich lore of the Riven Realms, and of course spinning tales for the upcoming Seekers of Knowledge DLC – among other things.

Project Update - Viktor Intro
05 May | 10:00 am

Hey everyone,

as we’ve mentioned before, we’ve been in the process of expanding our team - the unintended side-effect of which was our work slowing down a bit. Looking for new people, reviewing their test tasks, and interviewing them do take up an awful lot of time and energy. The effort, however, yielded several new hires who are on their probation period right now.
