After a long and hard first year of Shadowbane's existence, the entire team welcomed the Christmas break, and a chance to pause and reflect on the past year of the game.

When we came back, rested and ready, we found that simultaneously, many of us had made the same conclusions about what should be next for Shadowbane 2004. Shadowbane is the PvP and City Siege game, and we want to be the best Siege game that we can be. And we have a long ways to go to complete that goal.

But that's not going to stop us from trying.
