For various reasons, I have decided to make two significant changes to how Isekai works going forward.
Firstly, the dates it was happening on turned out to be somewhat unfortunate on a RL level, since I was usually not home during both of those periods, so we're changing it to be based around the Spring and Autumn Equinox instead. Which means that the seasons will cycle around March 19th-21st and September 22nd-23rd.
Secondly, launching Isekai with an update presented various challenges. For one, there was a "deadline" for each update, and if the update wasn't ready by then it would either have to wait six months, or the next season would have to be postponed. More importantly, it means that we wouldn't get to test conversion scripts that would later be used on Persistent, and the scope of testing would be limited to whatever level and equipment people would be able to obtain starting from zero until the update was deployed to Persistent. To resolve these issues, updates will no longer be deployed with new Isekai seasons - instead, updates will be deployed just like on Persistent, whenever it is ready.
In other words, the current season of Isekai will end on September 23rd.
