24-Dec-2022Vanilla mode (1x) is here!

Due to very high demand, we've decided to "early-launch" 1x Vanilla mode without the planned features and further bug testing (F2P Quests and Legend's Questline).
These features and some other planned features will be added to the live version instead. That means 4.5x and 1x will get these updates at the same time!
