+[Veloren][veloren] is an open world, open-source voxel RPG inspired by Dwarf
+Fortress and Cube World.
+
+In September the official Veloren server saw a new all time high of more than
+400 players logged in at the same time, with an average load of 200 players.
+This caused slow in-game responses and the development team quickly
+optimized to reduce the server load and introduced a new graphical
+server browser for balancing.
+
+Due to the more diverse user base, a lot of languages received translation
+updates. The most common crash dialog was improved to suggest the workaround
+of trying a different graphics backend, while the large number of players
+still using DX11 block an upgrade to a more recent WGPU version.
