Alpha 2 FIRST IMPRESSIONS VERBAL NDA DROP // Ashes of Creation

I CAN FINALLY TALK ABOUT IT! ASK ME EVERYTHING GUYS

Ashes of Creation is a unique take on the MMORPG experience. Our world structure is dynamic, and built to react to your actions. Cities will rise and fall as you shape the world of Verra. Quests and secrets will unlock as populations gather and their needs grow. As the world’s NPC structure is established in real-time, you will have the ability to destroy what’s been created, paving the way for new developments, populations, and change. Political strife and intrigue will play a very real role in the structure of your experience. Gone are the days of static worlds; change is here to stay!

Reminds me of the days of DaoC. Soloing was not viable and a significant amount of time was spent fonding hunting parties if you arent already playing with friends.
Finding hubting parties was a great way to make friends though.

i did a solo bard during the testing and had a blast but i was using a sword and shield with the bard but i didnt get to any more than level 9 or 10 i can't remember. Yes it is a hard grind.

Great video, however Mages absolutely crank. They have some of the highest single target dmg and the highest AoE dmg. Being able to AC>DBL Shatter is massive, plus balancing your debuffs. Far ahead of the other classes when minmaxed

I was working out to make T2 plate armor will require the input of 10 apprentice level skills so crafting is no joke when it comes to input from others.
Had first hand experience with your mage, you know when your group of 8 attacked me at the farm. JK your healers kept me alive.
So glad the verbal NDA has dropped.
Have actually been playing solo on purpose so the POI will be new to me when I get a few guild mates come this weekend, if the servers hold up that is.

[Bon-Gi]

Grouping up and mob grinding? That actually sounds amazing.

I’ve been playing, it’s not a solo game, but I dont mind that. I’m also playing T&L I can count on one hand how many times I’ve died after weeks it’s not challenging at all.

This game is challenging and it is not forgiving and I love it! Lineage 2 is my favourite game…

[makkura]

I have a key, I do not plan on using it in Phase 1, I’ll be honest, the current state of this Alpha seems too small on scale and too time consuming to be worth my time investment. Once Phase 2 comes out, or even Phase 3, I’ll consider joining in, till then, I’ll watch from afar through content creators and see what the main feedback seems to be.

You said you wanted all our questions, heres my quick list haha:

Which nodes were the most popular in your playthrough?

How good was the character customization? Is there anyway to save your character appearance templates?

How many character slots did you have?

Did you see a lot of GM's ingame interacting with players?

Do you know the names of the realms?

Did you ever have queue times, if so how long and do you expect them to be an issue in the 25th?

Do we know when downloading will be available for the alpha?

Do you know what time the alpha is live for those of us considering taking off work?

Is seasons available yet?

Is trading and caravans available yet?

Do you know if housing is available yet?

How was the lawless zones?

[Azrial]

well made video, good stuff ill fire that our discord for the others to watch.

[bspus]

If the melee class is action combat and the casters are tab, casters are sure to dominate. For a pvp-heavy game this is not good. I hope they don't mess up on that department

[xanderman]

Just noticed that Steven crouches at 1:41 in the video. Did anyone else notice this? As far as I was aware crouching wasn't available.

[TheTeelyTV]

Bro talking to us all casually like he's not a serial murderer :D

[maryjoness]

I have an older system atm. I did test what I could, which for me was windowed mode when I started it was fairly wonky. It s a lot less wonky now.The graphics are fabulous.

[rihards]

You touched on some of the classes and their ability to play solo, such as cleric being OP and bard being almost group exclusive, how about the others?
I'm obviously asking since I'm planning to play Tank and want to know if I can actually do something or will I be a crappy fighter?

[MJK]

Making it hard to solo basic levels is an issue for me, a lot of the time I get when I have time, so loosing that aspect of being able to just grind out some levels on my own is disappointing

[myerhq]

imagine you and your friends actually have/want to spend the money on this.. I'm looking forward to full release in 2035

[baneblackguard]

personally i'd rather see mages be weak at low level. that's the way they should be, weak and frail at the beginning, very powerful later on. mages should need assistance to grow, but the groups investment in the mage pays off later. and mages utility shouldn't just be lobbing nukes, that should be the least interesting and important part of having a mage in your group.

[PinkKitten]

The 25th cant come soon enough, ill be working though so hopefully ill at least be able to make a character before servers probably crash hard
Im 100% playing a dunir bard

[h.jonasrhynedahll]

NIce. Was busy listening to guild chat :)

[PublicStaticVD]

For a game that was announced about 8 years ago, I can't say I'm too impressed. Looks like it will still be another 2 years before it'll look somewhat polished.
