Wait for 2.3.0 or dive into 2.2.9?

Hi STEP staff,

 

I read somewhere that we can expect v2.3.0 in a couple months. I've been on a hiatus from Skyrim for a bit so I'm basically asking if I should just wait a bit longer for the 2.3, since it apparently brings a "new paradigm", or if it really won't be all that different and I should just get stuck into 2.2.9.

 

I've visited https://wiki.step-project.com/STEP:2.3.0 and it mostly so far looks like the extended mods have been removed from the core guide and a couple other mods have been removed/added. I of course realise that the 2.3 guide isn't complete at all but unless there are going to be big changes from what are already in that webpage I might just go with 2.2.9.

 

Thanks for all your hard work. I hope you realise how grateful everyone is!

 

Ps. I tried searching the forum for "2.3.0" and "2.2.9", even with quotes, but search seems to be broken/buggy and it only searched for 230 and 229, without the dots. Odd.

STEP 2.2.9 just released and we still have quite a bit to hash out before 2.3.0, so don't wait.

 

2.3.0 will be a shift toward packs being a bigger part of the STEP experience so we need a while to get all that done. You could easily get a playthrough done with 2.2.9 before we release 2.3.0.

Ok thanks a lot, it's both what I expected and wanted to hear!

Cheers
