Here's a fun one: My Quest Mode has BECOME Story Mode as of this most recent patch.
Whereas previously my party could gain experience points and would go to random areas with a selection of any of the three difficulties, now it has "converted" my party to one that lacks any experience and makes progress through the normal adventure decks. Going to Story mode has my regular parties (two of them) that I had made previously, whereas pressing Quest Mode gives me my Quest party without permitting access to choose the Story Mode parties. It is as if both buttons are just different instances of Story Mode.
I used Seelah, Seoni, and Merisiel as my quest party originally, then removed Merisiel for Harsk and tried to forfeit a match to see if it would give me an option to pick a second party. No such luck.
(p.s. thanks for the game i love it)
