What does this mean? What is the Wilderness actually? Is it darkness?

I assume it means things like graphics, sounds, small crafts/builds to help in the different biomes, augments to help with work loads, creatures etc

I'm kinda wondering this too. I assume he means either updating the terrain graphics, or that we are soon going to see some of those lumberwoods monsters we've been waiting for.

I assume darkness creatures will be looked at soon enough. With the raid mechanic generally setup for now (still some issues but steady on the whole) the devs will have time to look into more of the little details of the game which is sort of nice

Oh so it's all the different biomes and that, thought it was Darkness :)

With all the new graphics for houses, plants and so on, I really think the terrain textures deserve a makeover. It's sad but watching a few youtube reviews of Salem most of the random people (in the comments) are turned off by the graphics. I assume a terrain texture redo will help greatly. And make water look like actual water :D

+10 Tree Chopping takes 2:50, so looks like diminishing returns.
