So, what do you get with Dark Matter?
A heap of new quests exploring some of the more surreptitious elements active in the Endless Galaxy. Face the threat to your wealth posed by the Autonomous Bastards Collective. Get involved in the machinations of the Academy and its heroes. Race to uncover the secrets of an ancient Endless superweapon, before somebody else gets a hold of it and tries to point it at you. This, and more, awaits you in about a dozen new quests, including one new multi-chapter quest, with stunning new art.
For the release of this new DLC, pretty much all other Endless content is 75% off, so if you are missing anything in your collection, now’s a great time to grab it!
Even if you don’t pick up the new (or any of the old) DLCs, we still got some new content for you to enjoy: The pug hero!
Sbejru Mashmir follows a long line of pugs in Endless games, and an even longer line of Aurigan pugs, tracing all the way back to the famous Ayairi Whairydd of Dungeon of the Endless fame. Your star systems will be in good paws under her oversight, but be careful not to cross her: She knows how to use that hammer for more than just construction.
The free update also includes the Tech Tree Lore Rewrite (currently only in English; other localizations will be patched in later), and from here we will move to try addressing several issues with the game and specifically with Awakening:
- Battle Result Notifications stopping the turn from ending without reminding the player they are a notification that needs to be manually dismissed[/*]
- The Academy Fleets (both offensive and defensive) do not scale with game speed and progress as intended[/*]
- Effect stacking issues like Mining Probes and Backdoors[/*]
- Academy fleets sieging player systems while at neutral relations[/*]
- Diplomatic messages (e.g. Forced Truce) can be ignored by minimizing and ending the turn[/*]
We may not be able to address all of these for the next (non-localization) patch, but we will endeavor to fix as many issues raised by the community as we can.
In the meantime, have fun with the new content!
