As the dust has settled on the news we wanted to share the upcoming plan for the farewell events inside of Orbus we will be running. I’ve listed them in order with a short description to make it easier to keep track of. We will have additional details on the specific events when we get closer to the date. I hope to see everyone in game throughout the coming months, and especially on the Final Farewell party on the 6th!
PS: We are going to be in game more in the coming months, just popping in to play and experience the game with everyone else while we can. If you see us in game be sure to say hi and hang out with us. We will try sending out a server side notification in game when we jump in.
