Ahoy there, pirates! This week, I'm joined by Caleb as we sit down to talk about the Doubloon reset that's coming with Season 19, the overall cadence of Rare's development for the game, changes to Hourglass, and some other topics. Caleb wanted me to include the notes from the show so you can get an idea of what we chatted about for reference. Check them out below!

Black Market: Past Seasonal items, Past limited-time items (don’t know if letters of recommendation or gold revert will remain) Don’t want to argue limited-time items for the umpteenth time. Seasonal items already come back for doubloons, now they will just be in the black market instead of their respective shops. Blackmarket used to sell new recolors for gold, and one day Rare threw them all into their respective shops instead; why are we going backwards here? Why convert the current past seasonal items to gold if you’re still going to charge doubloons for new past seasonal items? What’s changing? Past season in the black market instead of the respective shops Past limited-time items as well Doesn’t solve the issue of long-time players having nothing to spend doubloons on. Dev Cycles 2018-2019: Big updates every couple of months with small updates in between Small updates called Bilge Rat Adventures From release to anniversary update Hungerdeep > skeleton thrones, gunpowder skeletons, mermaid statues > cursed sails 2019-2020: Small updates every month From a few months after the anniversary update to the festival of giving (2020 - 2nd one) Fort of the Damned > Seabound Soul > Festival of Giving > Legends of the Sea > Crews of Rage 2020-2023: Big updates every couple of months with small updates in between Small updates are called events. Bile Rat Adventures was now just an umbrella section for commendations tied to the new updates. Season 1 > festival of fishing, vault raiders > Season 2 2022: Events dropped for Adventures Season 5 - Season 8 The start of Season 9 had the last adventure Events were now sparsely used for some time-limited things or to track stuff like community day 2023: Small updates every month Season 9-10 Features released across the season 9: Monkey Island 10: guilds & safer seas 2023-2025: Big updates every couple of months. Season 11-14 Notice I didn’t say small updates in between. There were, but they were mostly gameplay improvements and bug fixes. This was a period when we were really feeling that they were releasing things before they were fully ready. 2025-current (2026): Small updates every month Season 15-Current (18) These updates were all a part of one big theme. For example: Season 15 ancient megs, then hunting spears & ambient wildlife, wild boars & ambient wildlife. Season 17 was intentionally spread feature release across the season, now in the form of acts. Of course, there were always delays and stuff Recurring Events Seems like they’re setting up for the future. Get a suite of recurring events. Right now, we know of: Last Ship Standing for Hourglass Bilge Rat Weekender to earn doubloons Molten Sands Fortress player-activated event Smuggler Heist for smuggler loot at sea forts (key drop mechanic was cool by the way, would love to see this on a bigger scale) Maybe Reaper Fortresses’ mega stash Hourglass Commendation fixing Supply (baseline starts similar to arena’s equal starts) Circle (puts a soft timer on matches similar to Arena’s hard timer) Last Ship Standing (puts multiple sloops in a fight similar to Arena’s multi-ship fight) Friction Auto-Raising of emissary flags Lots of these things people been asking for since its release, glad they’re focusing on it now Commendation fixing Supply (baseline starts similar to arena’...
