The nobility titles only really work for human characters. While I'm sure the other four races are getting used to being treated as an after thought, perhaps a system the can apply to all five would be a nice idea?

Thanks, I didn't know there was one, and I have done so.

Right now, one of the hardest things for new players is understanding which skills cause soft-CC and which cause hard-CC. Why not make that easier by having the shape of the skill button on taskbar tell you that?
Instead of having all the numbered skills be squares, why not have normal skills be circles, soft-CC skills be square shaped, and hard-CC skills be eight pointed stars?

> I read that one in the changelog, is 16 Logical processors as in 8 Cores + 8 Threads or 16 Real Cores? On my 1700X it runs fine on all 16, however performance is better if I limit it to the first 8 threads (taskset -c 0-7).

> I'm planning to update the Wine version when 4.0 is released however there's 1 small problem, from what I read, the PBA patches are having issues as of 3.21.
In Intel processors, logical cores is 2x physical cores because of hyper-threading.
As I understand the bug, it only occurs on architectures that supports MORE than 16 logical CPUs, so it's only an issue for really new ones like Skylake-X or Threadripper

It turns out this issue was due to a bug in WINE that only occurred for CPUs with more than 16 logical processors (the CPU mask format changes and some of the functions couldn't handle the new format):

The good news is that I was able to work with one of the WINE devs to fix the bug and it was included in the WINE 4.0-rc1 release

Yes. In a clean prefix, I can't even run the installer.

WINE 3.12 had the same problem as with WINE 3.11, and reverting back to WINE 3.10 allows it to run, so it definitely seems to be a WINE thing, but it also seems to not be affecting everyone.
Which distro are you using? Maybe it's an Ubuntu 17.10 problem?

@""ArmoredVehicle.2849" :
If it helps, this is the error log I am getting:
>*--> Crash <--*

My first hypothesis is that it has something to do with the changes in 3.11 made to the way the number of cores are calculated?

Has anyone been having issues since the WINE 3.10 -> WINE 3.11 upgrade? I never had problems before and now the launcher is suddenly crashing as soon as it starts.

I have lately been having a bug where every so often, the game will completely stop responding to keyboard inputs for about 20 seconds. During this time it responds to the mouse normally (e.g. I can click a button on the commander bar to activate a skill, but pressing the corresponding number does nothing) and key combinations that the operating system responds to (e.g. alt-tab, ctrl-esc) work normally.
Has anyone else had a similar issue? Does anyone know how I can stop this from happening?
Bug in The Ox's Yoke

There appears to be some sort of bug in The Ox's Yoke. About 10 seconds into it, I got hit by some glowing blue orb and the adventure ended immediately and said I had gold medal credit.
