I’ve hit a point I’m struggling with, but the concept is fun, and I want to keep going to see what the story unveils.

This is very sad. Loved the two Hand of Fate games and the sequel was such an improvement. Best of luck to the devs.

What strikes me is that Hand of Fate 2 was released in 2017, so has Defiant really been clinging on for dear life ever since? This seems to indicate that the sequel has only amassed 15% of the 'owners,' which is a very rough marker of sales given humble bundles, free giveaways, extreme price cuts, etc of the original, but it's still significantly lower given the time that's passed and post-support they've given to it. A real shame they didn't get a second chance in releasing their new game.
