Podcast Interview w/Creative Director Steven Sharif 

I was worried when you were talking about gear that can break (thinking along the lines of Crowfall perma-break), but then you said it could be repaired by crafters :D Sounds like a great system!

What I would give for an Alpha key

Aggelos was amazing at hosting this Q&A. Questions were meaningful and well thought out. I was so happy he asked about the node type determiner. I was dying to find that out ever since they talked about different types of metropolises.

I might not have been the FIRST comment but I had the honor of being FIRST podcast interview! Woot!

The hype is insanly real

Hope there will be a guild rep system in place so people cant guild hop and still get the guild perks. Guild perks should be rewards for staying loyal to a guild, not something that encourages players to leave lower level guilds for higher level guilds simply to get the perks

Please add a lifetime subscription option onto main website and allow paypal to be used. Please. I cant do kickstarter cause it doesn't allow paypal.

Devs PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE add good functioning horses, its the one thing MMO's never got right. I will throw my wallet at the screen if you guys have RDR style horses.

I wish there were some type of dynamic weather. Would weather affect caravans? Such as mud or snow causing the travel to be a little slower. Would the darkness of night be a bit darker for the final product? Any plans to make seasons last longer than 1 week? Would rain put out campfires? Lightning striking trees. Or strong wind causing damage to trees or structures. Strong wind during a snowstorm causing a blizzard with some white out. Snow building up during the winter. Just a couple touches like these to make the world seem more alive.

im also curious about sword forging and being able to have your horse carry your product

Hola! que gran juego están diseñando, muy buen trabajo! Pero...están planeando lanzar el juego completo en español? Me refiero a subtitulos...no audio.

that's so weird...Aggelos is completely in sync audiowise, but Steven's audio way ahead of his video.

important aspects of mmorpg: combat/pvp, housing/economy, raids/dungeons, graphics/design animation, and unique feature that represent the game. get all these and youd get millions of subs. and oh, UI.

I want to know more about crafting in the game. From what I know about crafting in other MMO type games crafting is treated as more of an afterthought with more focus on combat that than anything. Will it be possible for players to effectively play the part of vendors?

Guilds should have a reputation system that when each member does something to harm another player the guild should go down in a reputation scale too.

im curious as to what religion's there will be and how it will affect the divine settlements

I'm so fucking loving these interviews!!! Can't wait to get my hands on a copy! xD

Does anyone know if you are able to actually play as a guard/police guy. Thinking of being the Guard Captain of some medium sized node :D

I cannot get enough of this info. Amazing stuff.

also gw2 marionette was a good example of a world Boss with mechanics.

so from what I have gathered, the combat system will be similair to gw2?

Players are getting ahead of themselves. Ask the real question. Will quests be voice acted!?

needs more sandal

Is Intrepid really working with Discord to integrate it into AoC?

This is just getting better and better! Shame it will only gain more and more of the hypefiends; that is the nature of things these days tho. Its funny this game was only a whisper not long ago.. Now everyone's going to start jumping on it. This team has some legends on it. The kind that do know whats missing, because they were there in the good days of mmos. Now with all the tech leaps we have had they can truly give us what they always wanted.

This mmo may actually be the one that give the reason to rise from ore farmer to a citizen of a city (well, I will probably still farm ores, but perhaps for a different reason :) ).

I love Steven in a bro way

I dont look the hole video, for me the most important thing in MMO is the Combat system. I am an PVP Player. Can someone say something about the Combat system in AoC?

I like the way the game looks, but I have a question, will I translate it into Spanish?

If you guys deliver 80% of promised, I'm gonna delete all my other games from my computer and stay with you for looong time.

it takes way too long to be notified of an upload :(

I am so excited for this game. It looks great on its own right, but it will also pressure other studios to move away from the p2w business model.

Hello developers of great games Ashes of Creation!!! I am an active player in the MMO game with many years of experience from Russia !!! The gaming community in our country is very interested do you have plans to support Russian language in your game !!With respect Evgeniy Pashkov!!!

Paused and checked skype at 17:18. Damn, they always get me! XD

The only thing that sucks about this game, is the fact that it's not going to come out for at least 1.5 year :(

i shall kickstart at month end...when i got MONEY!

Sorry, my English isn't well, crafter, gatherer, processor classes will be separated from battle classes (warrior, mage, ranger, etc.)?

Now we only need to wait 2-3 years

I wonder if there going to server protection like they do in EVE if there is going to be a big battle going on so people don't lag out or there servers don't crash with all those people running around doing all the things?? Anyone wanna take a gander to yes or no?

CHOO-CHOO!!!!!!!!!

the skype sound fucked me so hard man holy shit

Will this game be VR friendly?

Seems a lot like BDO with modifications. With a sub style instead of an in game cash shop. Could be fun but idk if i can fit another subscription game on my budget lol depending how it looks at launch may make room.

Me! Time is on my side, yes it is. Time is on my side, yes it is. You're searching for good times but just wait and see,

I wonder does death effect the player and does the player age?

Tab targeting all the way bby

Glad to hear my name reservation is valued less than the higher up pledge packages.... Might as well lower my pledge now... Seeing that they misslead us

Exellent

I think this will be my last MMORPG :D

Gankers beware! I love it! Track them down, kill them, and give them vitae! (a la Asheron's Call)

When will this game be finished ?!

Tab-hybrid system that has to do with dodging and skill... Kinda like Darksouls?

The only thing I'm skeptical about is the referral system.

deez is my lullaby

Coloquem legenda em PORTUGUÊS POR FAVOR!

300th like this game will not fall ;)

I would like to know whether you can create a weapon/ clothing/ material object that hasn't been created before. making a unique weapon possible? Or is this game going to be sub par to what Guild Wars 2 has " a book that shows you what you can make" . If there was an in depth creating system that allowed you to get a mould a certain length or a magical crystal from a boss drop melted and welded into the weapon to give off a certain extension to your ability and has a particle effect when in battle would be awesome.

Damn :o

Do make gear repairable. Do not make Aragorn throw away his legendary sword in Lord of the Rings because his sword explodeded and vanished from attacking a lvl 12 cow. Make it so crafters can repaird. I repeat. Do not make gear brake down and become unusable after you worked 3 weeks getting a sword.

Will I be able to kill players in pvp and take their gold or gear or both?

Hi !

please add a special combat system , at least one better than Black desert online !

I hope you can have pets that can help you with your missions.

So they will start as a subscription model game huh? On one hand that's good, you pay, you play so no money snatching politics but will they keep this policy going or they will switch to buy&play like ESO?

Action combat = hoping u hit the right keyboard... that's like saying that driving is just hoping you hit the right pedal. I have no idea what your gaming skills are, but there you sounded noobish... Me personally, I love both, each for different reasons. And both systems have well and badly done examples.

1st view, screen shows 1 view. mwahaha

Steven is the Jeff Kaplan of MMO RPGS

"Kung fu massa - massa, I love that name!" MFW it's a bald white dude :|

that the firth thing before evrything is races

pls let me play this

can u be a lonewolf in this game ?

Make MMORBGs great again!

heartbreaking to read the comments of hyped people

i got the $85 on kickstarter, i cant wait, 12 years of WoW has made me crave a new good MMO i am sick of the shit that game has become

early but not first :S

GUYS GUYS: IS BDO P2W PLS TELL ME I DONT KNOW

LOL can i be an atheist in Ashes of Creation :D

hope not justh humans

STOP.THE.FUCKING.PVP.ZERG.FESTS that's all.

fuck I hope they make it like they are saying... a return to the mmorpg genre. Dare I let myself look forward to this? How many times have I allowed myself to look forward only to enter yet another mmo that is so dumbed down and mindless :( fast travel.. group finders.. micro transactions.. no effort or time needed to accomplish goals... everything just handed over to the player on a silver platter. PLEASE DONT MAKE THAT GAME AGAIN!

wath will be races character

No add on never noooo

5th

good video, but this guy doesnt seem to have a grasp of what a full action game is, its not just slamming your head against the keyboard hoping to do it correctly... normally full action mmos are much more punishing than tab target mmos, take tera for example, knowing when to block, or evade will be the difference between being oneshot or surviving... and understanding what kinds of attacks can be blocked or evaded, or which should be eaten in order to keep your blocks/evades off cooldown... its alot of prioritizing and quick thinking, as well as understanding mechanics to the point that you can do them in your sleep rather then the typical "ooo fire bad" that you have in alot of tab target games..

40 man raids will fail. Do not go down the path that Wildstar did! We fought the roster boss because of it. stick with 20 and under. If you're only talking about World bosses, then that doesn't matter.

Second

This game is too pvp based. I hope to god this is not the case. Because if there is one thing they need to learn is to not fail like new world. That has 0 end game. Almost 0 pve things to do and mostly pvp.

1 type race is this joke

2 type race is this joke

looks like another boring game.

I heard that the director of this game has a very scummy past.

First

literally all of this info on the game will be subjected to change........hmm =/
