Geweldige content! Glad to see fellow dutchies making awesome content. I subbed!
I enjoyed the information and your take on the state of the world. I enjoyed the video and will be looking forward to your next one.
Like most of what you said however, don’t blame exploitation on server population. Cheaters suck and will always suck. They would exploit regardless of how many people are there.
That is indeed true. Thanks for sharing your take on that!
The fact that testers now having to pay in order to test a game, instead of the other way around, is now an industry standard, is mindblowing.
You don’t have to. Let us people with money do what we want.
In what game did players (not QA) get paid for testing? Players getting paid has never been an industry standard.
great vid thanks
some albion style influence for econ/farming with traditional mmo combat/dungeons/raiding.
I really enjoy your videos! Keep it up! 😊
So when is it going live?
probably 2027
Would hazard to guess that they are doing an early population stress test on the servers with the merges. So, PvP will be non-consentual outside cities?
Great Video! 👍
I keep wanting to go in on AoC but I'm fool noob and only played on rails mmo before 😢 It looks fun, even the bad bits kinda.
officially can say i did a proper caravan run with Meliz. Won't disturb you again to :P
Sadly the 100$is way too much spend on alpha access 😂
not to mention its only for alpha, full version will require monthly subscription...
It's more or less an investment in development. If that doesn't interest you, then yeah, don't do it. The game is going to require funding to be completed.. like $250 mil at least.. help or don't. All mmo's are extremely expensive.
@nerd_n8t i will just wait that will come out tho
$120 for the privilege to test their game for them is insulting. I love the concepts of this game, but ya'll giving them a pass on this is going to burn us all downstream. Asking for $30 for access to an Alpha is the industry standard, and works time and time again. We have become too desperate for that WOW killer...
Beta access to WoWs last expansion ran 90$.
That $110 is to test ALPHA 2 phase 2 and 3, BETAS 1 & 2, 1 month free gametime on launch and $15 embers (in-game currency). And FYI, this will last for 1-2years worth of testing. WOW is currently $15/mo. to play, and that's $180/yr. So I think Ashes of Creation $110 Alpha Access is really worth it for me.
@@mikoyb.1291 This is exactly what I'm saying! The wait till beta is too long and i rather TEST this game to its full stages than pay multiple games ill never play again in a couple months tbh.
@@mikoyb.1291 The cope is hard here. You don't even get the game and a whole lot of nothing.
@@Lord_Juvens The game doesn't have a box cost.
Great vid, thanks for taking the time to make this. I'm not in the alpha but have been watching this game with great interest. I'm super interested in the guilds, nodes (towns?), mayorship, trade, and politics. Please keep 'em coming!
Thanks for the update!
thanks for the update
You have a very calming voice, great for video. Love hearing your perspective and personal experience with this game.
I second this!
UwU
Class video again. keep it up fool! :)
for the algo
Great job on this review! As a new content creator myself covering Ashes of Creation, I know this had to take you a quite a bit of time to put together. In regards to the PvP system, I did not make a video on it yet, but i did do some testing. There's essentially "green", "purple", "red" status; "non-combatant", "flagged", "corrupt". If you flag for PvP (alt + f), you can attack anyone you want. If you attack another flagged/purple person, or a non-flagged/green player but they choose to fight back, there are no consequences. If you attack a non-flagged player and kill them without them fighting back, you will become corrupt/red. There is no penalty for attacking and killing a corrupt/red player. Hope that helps and made sense. See ya around in game! 🙂
Great Job on the review. I think this gives someone who is unfamiliar with AoC a good overview. Also, it excites me to see a fresh take on this game. Well done, and I'll start following you for more future updates. See ya in Phase II!!
Great video, thank you!!
The Devs are well aware of the lack of quest xp and lack of content beside grinding mobs. Phase One was a testing phase for the Server Stability and other back end testing. They will most certainly provide a more diverse leveling experience, but later on in Phase 2. Even the start of phase two will not see much of an improvement in Quest Leveling. Side quests out in the world will be another avenue, as well as Story Arcs. Questing is said to be able to provide up to 75 or 80 % of your level upon game release. The rest of the 25 - 20 % will be grinding. Unlike the 90-95% that it is now.
This is a game that I want to pretty much go in blind at this point, its nice to check a little bit here and there though!
Nice review, playing in alpha now and while I like what I see and the game has great potential I don't see it having a major success at release because of the pvp systems, a niche community but not anything to rival big mmorpgs populations.
Finally another Dutchy hyped about Aoc and showing the world how it can be without being a doom bot
great video
Concise, well presented, great information and with an excellent speaking voice. Looking forward to more content from you. Liked and subbed to your channel.
yeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee
Can't wait for the big artisan updates on the 20th. Nice vid!
Didn't realize you had less than 100 subscribers, very well paced video and overall felt like a video from a TH-camr with tens of thousands subs.. amazing job I subbed and can't wait to see more of your videos!
How did you get the armored bear? :O
I love that you sound like Luna Lovegood!!
OSRS gamers checking out AoC <3
Your corruption explanation is a bit misinformed. Corruption doesn't penalize PvP - it penalizes grieffing. If both parties consent to the PvP or flag for it, there's no penalties. If someone kills another player who does not flag or return combat, then the player becomes corrupt
Nice chill review. Thorough and balanced.
Great video! Looking forward to your next one. Also enjoyed playing phase 1, and cant wait for phase 2. See you in Verra 🫡 may the algorithm be on your side.
Excellent review. Thanks a lot! Entering Phase 2 myself 20/12
You don't get corrupted simply by attacking players. You get corrupted for killing a player who has not opted into pvp referred to as a non combatant. That player name plate is white. When you flag for pvp by hitting Alt F you name plate turns purple and now you are a combatant. As a combatant you can attack other purple players and can attack corrupted players whose name plate is red. The corrupted player will lose 3 pieces of gear when dying to a player and will be attacked by guards. If you are a caravan attacker or defender you don't get corrupted. That is an opt in event that Intrepid wants you to do. It is the same with node wars which will be in phase 2.
Nice review, neither "doom" or blind to any flaw just honest opinions and info...looking forward to the phase 2 videos.
Great review! Ashes definitely needs a signature style to make it stand out. Keep it up !
This was one of the best reviews I've ever seen. Great first video! Excited to see what else you make.
Hey thanks! I loved your guide on the mage class. I plan on making a mage for phase 2 :)
@MelizTV Ohh nice! I hope ypu enjoy it!
8:26 ok, what did you drop
I heard that the other seasons were bugged and not functioning correctly, that's why we were stuck in winter.
I think people doing content-creation for Ashes of Creation have to recognise this is an "Agile" development, and so content/features will be added in batches well into next year, and most likely to the end of it. In that sense it isn't like a normal "Alpha2". The core game wont be moving into what might be an "Early Access" stage for a game using a more standard approach, until May next year at the earliest. To my mind it is incredible that the game is so playable, when (as you point out) things like quests and events are only in there to get them functional. The good news is that content will come on line faster and faster as time progresses. Now quests are working they can group quests into story arcs, and now crafting is working they can add an economy etc.. As we go through to May we will get a much better idea of what playing the game will really be like. The real challenge is not to get too manic-depressive through the testing, as each batch changes the experience. Good video.
Coïncedence or not, this was on my front page! Hi! 😄
What server are you on?
uhmmm...I would fog/delete that footage of the dwarven dungeon ASAP!!!!!
Hey you are not the first person to raise this concern with me <3. I don't have access to the PTR. This footage was filmed on the alpha 2 realms last weekend. It is already possible to get inside the new dungeon :)
Mooi filmpje! 😁👌
