Dev Discussion - Time Dedication How much time do you think someone should invest in order to become an expert at an MMORPG? What are the differences between an expert player versus a casual player - time commitment, skill, and game knowledge?

What exactly are you trying to figure out here? Development-wise. What's the point of this question? Or, which system(s) are you unsure of how to implement that you need this answered? I am not trying to be facetious here, I genuinely don't understand the purpose of this Dev Discussion, so please clarify if you can @Vaknar :smile:

The point is for us to have a conversation about time dedication ;) What defines being an expert in something in an MMORPG? Do you feel you're an expert in some MMORPGs or systems within them, but not in others? If so, please explain :...

"Expert" is hard to define in my opinion. I think that you need to at least dedicate 2-3 hours a day to get gud in any game though. ^^

"Expert" can indeed be a subjective term. I think your example of what makes an expert to you is a good example of how we all can interpret this word differently!

Love the helpful answers here. Y'all rock! As @SnowElf mentioned, keep an eye on your email if you have A1 or A2 access, so you don't miss out on any spot testing invites!

This is a good piece of feedback coming out of the livestream. I'm going to merge this thread into the main feedback thread ;)Don't be afraid to keep the conversation going in that thread!

As others have pointed out, the goal is to make the game's UI fully customizable. The UI is certainly still a work in progress, and likely will be for some time <3 Creating UI for a game like Ashes of Creation is quite a lofty task. We know that UI is important, so we want to make sure we do it right :)

Marriage will exist in game! @SkylarckTheBotanist provided that wiki link for you @castuskrait in case you're wanting to learn more! As for dating, this might be something best left to player creativity, rather than an in-game system to support it ;)

I moved this thread to the Community Creations section of the forums :) It's cool to see you talk about your inspiration for becoming a content creator :) Make sure you apply to the Content Creator program: https://forums.ashesofcreation.com/discussion/49164/content-creator-program#latest

Looks like opinions are varied on this subject! Feedback like this is always helpful for the team, so if you're stopping by this thread, we'd love to see you give your thoughts on what you prefer for health + mana regeneration!

OP used a few quotes from the wiki, so I'll go ahead and drop those here! Rogues: https://ashesofcreation.wiki/Rogue Stealth: https://ashesofcreation.wiki/Stealth ----- I'd like to add a question for OP and the folks of this thread; It seems like some peoples' fantasy or perception of what a Rogue should be is primarily, if not entirely focused on stealth. Is that what you prefer in your Rogue classes and archetypes in MMORPGs? Do you think the archetype itself should be centered around stealth, stealth should be just a feature, or maybe you'd like to ... Read more

Quick bug-report since I am re-watching the video: The name of the recipe for the Stormcaller's Axe has a typo in it "Recipe: Stromcaller's Axe".

Hehe, nice catch! We caught that and fixed it shortly before the livestream, but the show had to go on!

Hi @Spenta :) I'm not sure if there is an issue with the images, with the forums, or some unknown issue happening, but we were hoping to grab these images, especially the second one, for our Fan Friday showcase before it disappeared from this thread! Is there a possibility you can reupload these?

I'm glad to see you're excited about the upcoming livestream topic! While it may not be as exciting of a topic as Caravan PvP to some, Commissions are a system many players will interact with often, so it is important! The team looks forward to showing their progress and getting feedback ;)

Here is the Dev Discussion asset w/o the text, as some have requested :)

Now this is what I’m talking about @Nightmarelol @Option Let’s go for that 3v3 team death match style E - Sports title

3 man arena deathmatches sound fun! As a reminder, you can read more about our plans for Arenas here, on the wiki: https://ashesofcreation.wiki/Arenas With that said, are there any tools you’d like that would make competitive events easier for players to run? Perhaps you have thoughts or opinions on Esports in other MMORPGs that you'd like to share?

Pyrolol;c-440821

https://forums.ashesofcreation.com/discussion/58885/the-arena-thread Here’s a thread I started few days ago With a compromise to smaller scale competitive Arena gameplay and still keeping the aspects of the game in mind Would absolutely love E-Sports involvement

Awesome thought starts you made in your other thread! Looking at this segment specifically: Pyrolol;d-58885

The Arena should focus on player vs player, working as a team using skill, game knowledge, cooldown management and coordination to defeat the enemy team with zero respawns. There shouldn't be arena gear - it should be what your character has earnt from raids, dungeons, crafting etc and that is what you use to compete with, therefore skill can only be used so much before it is time to go back out into Vera and get some upgrades (preventing people...

What mechanics do you think would make for fun small and large scale PvP and what makes boring PvP?

Great prompt for discussion, OP! There are already some great perspectives and answers being shared in this thread!
