Are we sure the timer at the Special Tab of the Volkswagen is an indicator for the next phase?

    Do you mean “Wagen des Volkes” == WV or “Vault of the Wizard” == VW`?

    I think there is a rather wide consensus that this indicates the date of the first major update in the game’s new Expansion Cycle, though we can’t be sure of course.

      Yeah I know that consensus, but is that based on wishful thinking or do we actually have a source or anything?

      Edit: Yes.

    They aren’t doing Living World any more though, are they? I thought the plan was one smaller expansion a year, then quarterly updates?

      They name major game updates different now and changed their size. A mini-expansion like SotO is in fact about the size of 2 Living World episodes. I assume that SotO’s (quarterly) major updates will roughly have the size of a 1 Living World episode, but who knows …

      Their “mini expansions” are just repackaged Living World at basically full box price while keeping the cash shop. Like, literally.

      Future releases don’t make the current one last longer though.
