| 43s | Gathering and we're going to do a little |
| 44s | bit of that today and we also during our |
| 46s | uh last stream with uh freeholds talked |
| 49s | a little bit about processing and we're |

| 92s | how you doing buddy doing great how are |
| 94s | you doing very good you have been doing |
| 97s | a lot of work on the engineering side of |
| 98s | things getting all these glorious |
| 100s | designs up and running it's going to be |
| 101s | exciting to take a look at that today as |
| 103s | well yeah it's been a challenge to |
| 106s | fulfill all the wishes of my |
| 110s | designers that bad was it they're like |

| 132s | peanut butter to the Jelly that is noed |
| 134s | so I'm super excited to show how these |
| 135s | start interacting with each other yes it |
| 138s | is totally 100% and you guys have done a |
| 140s | great job so far uh I know you guys have |
| 143s | been really pushing it uh this last this |
| 146s | last Sprint and uh it has definitely |
| 149s | shown through to me so I'm excited to |
| 151s | show the audience um all right so why |
| 153s | don't we talk a little bit of bit a |
| 156s | little bit about what we're going to be |
| 158s | doing |
| 160s | today Cory yeah Mike yeah sounds good um |
| 164s | so um you had brought up that you had |
| 168s | done a little uh lumberjacking uh but |
| 170s | we're kind of interested in getting into |
| 172s | some Mining and |
| 174s | herbalism uh because you picked up a |
| 177s | recipe um I think it's like uh you're |
| 179s | saying it's a pretty nice sword or |
| 181s | something so okay let me take a look at |
| 182s | that is that that's going to be in my |
| 183s | inventory yeah it should be in your |
| 185s | inventory yeah um so I was thinking we |
| 187s | could go out and uh get some of the |
| 189s | stuff that we would need to um make that |
| 194s | sword U some of them are a little harder |
| 196s | to come by so I'm not sure whether or |
| 198s | not we'll be able to get our hands on |
| 199s | that if not I think we might have some |
| 201s | stuff for you but um yeah I guess uh we |
| 205s | just need to kind of get our get our |
| 206s | stuff together at um as as you mentioned |
| 208s | uh or as I mentioned you you already did |
| 211s | some Lumberjack in but we'll probably |
| 212s | need to get you um uh herbalism sickle |
| 217s | and uh maybe some extra bags so you have |
| 220s | some space um so yeah let's uh yeah |
| 223s | let's make our way over to the |
| 226s | agricultural Supply I think there |
| 228s | there's one of those built in uh |
| 229s | Winstead right now so we can head down |
| 231s | there and um so now talk to me a little |
| 234s | bit about obviously we have this recipe |
| 237s | um when players are looking to create |
| 240s | different items in the game they're |
| 242s | going to need to go out and either uh |
| 244s | purchase or get drops of recipes or |
| 246s | trade with other players and when they |
| 248s | acquire that recipe like I have here |
| 250s | this it says night blade I can use the |
| 253s | recipe and I will learn a weapon |
| 255s | smithing recipe for the night blade so I |
| 257s | have a recipe book that I get to keep |
| 260s | essentially I learn these recipes once |
| 262s | yep pretty much um there might be some |
| 264s | unique cases where some recipes might |
| 267s | have a charge count so when you craft it |
| 269s | five times it might disapp here but |
| 270s | generally most of the cases all the |
| 272s | recipes should be primarely learned okay |
| 274s | nice that's very cool um and right |
| 277s | clicking this is going to consume it I |
| 279s | assume but I'm I do get a preview of the |
| 281s | materials that we need and Cory this is |
| 283s | what you were talking a little bit about |
| 284s | going out and collecting some of these |
| 285s | there's a night opal Moon Bell I assume |
| 288s | that is some type of |
| 289s | flower yeah so um uh the night opal and |
| 294s | the moon bells are those are the ones |
| 296s | that I was kind of alluding to that are |
| 297s | a little difficult to get our hands on |
| 299s | um the night Opals you basically can't |
| 302s | see them at all during the day uh but um |
| 304s | as it gets closer to night if they're in |
| 306s | the world they'll sort of uh um uh push |
| 310s | away their shell and start shining a bit |
| 312s | and then the uh the the uh Moon Bells uh |
| 315s | only bloom at night so we'll have to |
| 318s | kind of you know maybe we'll work on |
| 320s | some of the other uh things that you |
| 322s | need for that recipe and hopefully night |
| 324s | time we'll come around and we can uh |
| 325s | find some of those things okay very cool |
| 327s | so I'm going to right click this recipe |
| 328s | to learn it |
| 330s | let's see here oh very cool okay it says |
| 333s | learned new recipe night |
| 335s | blade okay yeah now where are we going |
| 338s | to go to get this sickle you mentioned |
| 341s | oh yeah so right over here |
| 345s | um oh okay they got this area in kind of |
| 347s | the back alley of the of the Town yeah |
| 350s | so if you head through here this is the |
| 352s | agricultural |
| 353s | Supply um this is one of the you know |
| 356s | service buildings that you can build in |
| 357s | the node this one kind of focuses |
| 359s | specifically on artist ship and you'll |
| 360s | find stuff for herbalism farming and |
| 362s | animal husbandry here um so if you talk |
| 365s | to um Mr Willie over here um yeah so he |
| 371s | if you talk to him he should um give you |
| 374s | some stuff that you can use to construct |
| 377s | your uh first sickle so okay and then uh |
| 379s | on once you have those things there's a |
| 382s | little Anvil here over here to your left |
| 384s | um and you can craft the sickle there |
| 386s | and then I think once you have the |
| 388s | sickle you can talk to him and um it'll |
| 391s | it'll complete the quest and and you |
| 393s | give you your first tickle you'll be |
| 394s | ready to go this guy is incredibly rude |
| 397s | we need to have a conversation with the |
| 399s | narrative team about how these these |
| 402s | vendors speak to the citizens of this |
| 404s | Village this is |
| 406s | unbelievable he said he just can't he |
| 409s | can't teach just any Drifter am I just |
| 411s | any Drifter does he not see the crown on |
| 413s | this helmet I guess not yeah we'll have |
| 415s | to add the uh mayoral um narrative tags |
| 419s | just so they and uh and up their |
| 422s | respectful speech he's not even going to |
| 424s | pay me too for achieving these many |
| 426s | tasks he has for me he's paying you in |
| 429s | experience that is not enough oh man |
| 432s | I've had those jobs before |
| 436s | same oh that was so good that was so |
| 439s | good thank oh no okay I have achieved |
| 444s | this Quest it's called a feast of |
| 447s | flowers |
| 448s | awesome uh so you uh he wants me to show |
| 451s | him my crude |
| 453s | sickle nice you should do that we'll |
| 455s | turn |
| 457s | away whoa |
| 459s | whoa this is going to be one of those |
| 462s | streams okay all right so um what do I |
| 466s | need to do with this uh come over here |
| 468s | uh next to the Anvil all right behind |
| 471s | you yeah so there's an little Anvil |
| 473s | right here uh we can interact with that |
| 474s | and that should pull up the the crafting |
| 476s | menu so as a uh as a gatherer you'll be |
| 479s | able to craft your own tools um uh |
| 481s | they're going to take you know resources |
| 483s | that come from all sorts of different uh |
| 486s | professions you won't be able to you |
| 488s | know always Source all of those things |
| 490s | just just yourself but um uh luckily you |
| 494s | know Will's nice and he gave you some um |
| 496s | some components and you can kind of just |
| 498s | throw them together to make your first |
| 499s | uh your first sickle here so go through |
| 502s | with the go through the craft you should |
| 503s | get that thing and you know show it to |
| 505s | him and um he'll give you a little pat |
| 508s | on the back and a this is a great |
| 510s | example as we kind of um players as |
| 513s | you're entering into Alpha 2 and and |
| 515s | you're wanting to get started into um |
| 518s | artisanship these different professions |
| 520s | will have a number of quests available |
| 522s | to introduce players to their first tool |
| 524s | sets um and then from their tool set |
| 528s | sustainability will be will be incumbent |
| 531s | on the player to continue to gather the |
| 533s | resources necessary to repeatedly create |
| 536s | these tools because they have a |
| 537s | durability that gets expended when in |
| 539s | interacting with the resources in the |
| 540s | open |
| 542s | world |
| 544s | exactly all right okay so I'm going to |
| 547s | talk to him again and yes I made the |
| 550s | sickle um okay now he's criticizing my |
| 553s | crude |
| 555s | work okay okay all right but that's fine |
| 558s | he uh we all know what your first May |
| 561s | mayoral like decision is going to be |
| 564s | destroy agricultural this guy is the |
| 567s | agricultural sply yeah oh no all right |
| 572s | very cool so I oh you can preview it in |
| 576s | AR page |
| 578s | actually yeah once you once you there |
| 581s | you go you should have your rewards now |
| 583s | there we go equipped to Artisan tool |
| 585s | slot very cool so now it is in my |
| 587s | Artisan tool slot should I open that and |
| 588s | take a look here yeah perfect okay okay |
| 594s | cool so uh yeah so we have that panel |
| 596s | open this is kind of like the the hub |
| 598s | for all arti ship stuff I think we poked |
| 600s | around here a little bit um in some of |
| 602s | the previous streams but uh on the right |
| 604s | hand side there you can see all the |
| 606s | different slots for the the tool types |
| 609s | um for each of our five Gathering |
| 611s | professions so aesome um looks like you |
| 613s | have one of each of the tools that we're |
| 614s | looking to use today um it also kind of |
| 618s | I'm already very progressed in my uh in |
| 620s | my |
| 621s | lumberjacking oh yeah you said you're |
| 623s | like what level are you I'm like level |
| 625s | nine I'm about to be level 10 oh that's |
| 628s | awesome okay so like we're out and about |
| 630s | you'll if you hit Level 10 you should be |
| 632s | able to uh upgrade your certification to |
| 634s | apprentice and that's one of our uh |
| 636s | certification break points um and you |
| 639s | know once you each hit those break |
| 641s | points it kind of opens up a whole new |
| 643s | uh range of stuff that you can do new |
| 645s | tools yeah exactly right um a new |
| 648s | portion of your skill tree so we should |
| 650s | for sure um get you that level 10 and |
| 653s | see what happens what up Sten we need to |
| 655s | prepare for a journey oh where yeah we |
| 658s | need to get some potential bags oh okay |
| 661s | yeah yeah yeah so uh we talked about |
| 664s | this in the past with the with the |
| 665s | tetris inventory um kind of having uh |
| 668s | different spatial layouts um of our bags |
| 670s | and also our um our resources and so uh |
| 675s | we've been working on that a little bit |
| 676s | and um trying to set up bags that have |
| 679s | uh spaces that are optimal for you know |
| 682s | the the shapes that are going to be |
| 684s | associated with the resources and um |
| 686s | having stats on on the bags that will |
| 688s | change you know that stack size and how |
| 690s | much you can stack stuff up so um since |
| 693s | we're going out we're going to collect a |
| 694s | bunch of stuff you should grab one of |
| 696s | the um bountiful bags from from Willie |
| 699s | and then we'll go over to the Stoneworks |
| 701s | and see if we can grab a see that um |
| 704s | Willie has a number of different uh |
| 708s | farmer shirts and novice |
| 710s | herbalism or herbalist skibbies do I |
| 713s | want any gear from |
| 715s | this um yeah it's up to you I mean |
| 717s | there's so there's gear for all of the |
| 718s | different um crafting Gathering and |
| 721s | processing professions that'll help you |
| 723s | you know do do those uh different trades |
| 725s | so um it's up to you like if if you you |
| 728s | said you're higher level in |
| 729s | lumberjacking so you know you could grab |
| 731s | some of that stuff um to kind of |
| 733s | compound on the stats make you make you |
| 735s | faster chopping or oh should I go over |
| 737s | that guy buy that stuff okay cool cool |
| 739s | cool so from this guy let me purchase |
| 741s | his um bags yeah why you grab yeah grab |
| 746s | the Bountiful bag from him the Bountiful |
| 747s | ones are pretty great they um I think |
| 749s | they have the increased stack size on |
| 751s | them so you can uh stack up more herbs |
| 754s | um in that bag than you can in in |
| 757s | others I see that there is a novice |
| 760s | herbalism |
| 762s | bag and if you scroll down at the bottom |
| 764s | there's alien herbl and basket oh okay |
| 766s | so I'm going to grab the basket yeah all |
| 770s | right done I got one of those sweet |
| 774s | awesome I need anything else do I need |
| 776s | any other bags uh yeah let's run over |
| 779s | this way to the |
| 781s | Stoneworks there's another |
| 784s | uh gentleman over here that we can talk |
| 786s | to kind of |
| 788s | standing by this crane okay um and you |
| 792s | can do the same thing from him throw |
| 793s | throw a little gold at him and he'll |
| 795s | give you some give you some bags and |
| 796s | stuff I'll get um from this guy the |
| 799s | stone let's noice Bountiful mining bag |
| 802s | novice Bountiful okay got it awesome so |
| 806s | now those those bags should be in your |
| 808s | inventory um and if you right click them |
| 811s | they'll equip and then if you go over to |
| 812s | your materials tab um you should be able |
| 815s | to see those new bags that we got okay |
| 819s | so just real quick you were speaking |
| 820s | earlier about the unique stack sizes as |
| 823s | being part of the um kind of asymmetric |
| 827s | design for bag crafting um and these |
| 831s | bags have specifically curated benefits |
| 834s | for stack sizes of the type of resources |
| 838s | they relate to and that's the specific |
| 840s | profession of gathering and the |
| 841s | resources you would gain from those |
| 843s | those different unique professions so by |
| 846s | equipping this herbalism bag whoops |
| 849s | let's see |
| 850s | here um and then also let me just open |
| 854s | up the materials section and this |
| 858s | one I see now I've actually gotten a |
| 862s | unique |
| 864s | looking um structure for the alen |
| 867s | herbalism basket and those are the types |
| 869s | of structures you would expect them to |
| 871s | gather that are the gather bles for |
| 873s | herbalism correct correct correct yeah |
| 876s | so that's not necessarily to say that I |
| 878s | can't collect non herbalism resources I |
| 881s | could and I could put them in that bag |
| 884s | but it just wouldn't utilize the most |
| 886s | beneficial aspect of it which is the |
| 888s | higher stack count for those types of |
| 890s | herbalism resources yeah exactly we can |
| 893s | also um you know can also be constraints |
| 897s | on the on the shape right like um we |
| 899s | were talking about like you can kind of |
| 901s | see um I'm not sure what materials you |
| 904s | you have in your bags but like I I have |
| 906s | a couple pieces of wood that are you |
| 908s | know uh 1x3 and so you know in in the |
| 911s | herbalism bag I'm not sure that there's |
| 913s | any any slots for for pieces of wood |
| 916s | that are that size right so um some |
| 919s | there'll be some constraints and um |
| 922s | benefits in terms of shape and then also |
| 924s | you know the the stack size based on the |
| 926s | on the type so okay cool very cool so |
| 929s | now let's oh go ahead Mike a good |
| 931s | example would be if you equip the mining |
| 933s | bag as well on top of the oralism bag um |
| 936s | you'll be able to see the shapes are |
| 940s | different but um you can see the mining |
| 943s | bags are 2 by tws and overing bags are |
| 946s | um one by twos so you can technically |
| 948s | put herbs into your mining bags but you |
| 950s | won't get the benefit of the stock |
| 951s | bonuses of the mining stuff right yeah |
| 955s | that's very |
| 956s | cool sorry go ahead M say something else |
| 959s | um also um the the earlier versions |
| 962s | might be very restrictive in sizes so |
| 965s | like uh the novice mining bags and all |
| 967s | oralism bags are very shape restrictive |
| 969s | but as you level up and then make better |
| 971s | bags might be more generous of um shapes |
| 975s | so you could technically do some other |
| 976s | things as well and then have more bigger |
| 978s | sizes and have be able to uh hold more |
| 982s | variety of things as well okay very nice |
| 984s | that's I I think that's pretty cool |
| 985s | should should we go to The Lumberjack to |
| 988s | grab those were you talking about some |
| 990s | um equipment that he might have that |
| 991s | might help us with our lumber jacket oh |
| 993s | yeah definely LEL that up |
| 998s | sweet oh I see okay hold on let me see |
| 1000s | here I have I also have a quest that |
| 1002s | relates to We rise after |
| 1006s | felling oh yeah that's so that's the |
| 1008s | certification Quest so um as you |
| 1011s | mentioned before you know that we're um |
| 1014s | we're we're planning on having some some |
| 1017s | content related to you know onboarding |
| 1020s | players to the different professions and |
| 1022s | you know you're going to need a tool for |
| 1023s | the first time and um you're going to |
| 1026s | want to craft a thing for the first time |
| 1027s | and kind of learn how to do those things |
| 1029s | uh but we also want to extend that out |
| 1031s | to kind of more of a a individual story |
| 1035s | arc um like experience for players um so |
| 1038s | as you as you become a better Lumberjack |
| 1040s | you'll you'll you'll uh play out your |
| 1042s | story as as a lumberjack so um these |
| 1045s | different certification quests um are |
| 1048s | are to be kind of uh Keystone moments in |
| 1051s | that story progression so you know right |
| 1053s | now we have something kind of you know |
| 1055s | simple set up uh looks like you already |
| 1057s | had collected all of the the wood that |
| 1059s | you needed right but um you also need to |
| 1061s | reach the level needed to even be take |
| 1064s | on an apprentice ship so um so I think |
| 1069s | yeah see see what he's got um I'd check |
| 1072s | out some of the gear I think that will |
| 1074s | um since you're already pretty pretty |
| 1075s | good with the wood chopping you could |
| 1077s | probably get a little little faster with |
| 1078s | the GE that he has so he does have he |
| 1081s | has a shirt pants |
| 1083s | um and I think it's that and a tool belt |
| 1087s | and and each of them are |
| 1089s | giving different |
| 1091s | benefits looks like I'm getting |
| 1092s | lumberjacking speed from the pants and |
| 1095s | from the |
| 1096s | shirt and the tool belt is going to give |
| 1099s | me |
| 1100s | processing |
| 1102s | um oh I think you might be looking at |
| 1104s | Lum Milling oh that's |
| 1106s | lill yeah so at this at this service |
| 1108s | build |
| 1109s | um we're we're housing another three |
| 1112s | professions so there's there's carpentry |
| 1113s | stuff here there's the lumber Milling |
| 1115s | stuff here and there's also the |
| 1117s | lumberjacking stuff here so um Woody's |
| 1120s | going to have stuff from from all three |
| 1122s | um if you're looking to do any you know |
| 1125s | uh Woodwork in related activities uh |
| 1128s | he's your guy so and that's sort of what |
| 1130s | we mentioned when we were showing the |
| 1132s | noes uh in a live stream a few months |
| 1134s | ago was like your ability to build |
| 1136s | buildings to really cater to |
| 1139s | uh the important industries to your |
| 1142s | region or or to your node yeah yeah let |
| 1147s | me just take a look here I know this is |
| 1149s | obviously guys this is I want to State |
| 1152s | this again we always State this in every |
| 1153s | uh showcase but uh everything you see |
| 1156s | here is still a work in progress we are |
| 1157s | working towards our Alpha 2 um that |
| 1160s | includes things like visual effects like |
| 1163s | uh UI these are all very functional |
| 1166s | States but not necessarily at their |
| 1168s | polish States um so there still a lot of |
| 1170s | work that needs to be done there I |
| 1171s | noticed that um we have three slots for |
| 1175s | the uh the equipment that I just put on |
| 1177s | and they're not displaying visually uh |
| 1180s | but we do intend to provide that visual |
| 1183s | display as an option to the characters |
| 1185s | correct correct |
| 1187s | yeah it would be a toggleable thing that |
| 1190s | players could be do um in the future |
| 1193s | when we get some assets yes absolutely |
| 1196s | there's a lot of |
| 1197s | assets |
| 1199s | all right let us so what should we do |
| 1201s | here we want to go out and gather some |
| 1203s | stuff yeah yeah yeah so um you know |
| 1206s | we're we're kind of scouting out there |
| 1208s | uh beforehand and we know we know a |
| 1209s | pretty good spot um if you're if you're |
| 1213s | heading out kind of past the Smithy you |
| 1216s | should see a good old Tower Carin out |
| 1218s | there in the distance and if you |
| 1221s | head uh a little bit east of that um you |
| 1225s | can kind of see some like rock |
| 1226s | formations up there that's where we're |
| 1228s | heading there's an nice little um little |
| 1230s | Valley in there um has I think it has |
| 1233s | pretty much everything that we're |
| 1234s | looking for so okay I love the Autumn |
| 1238s | look out here I think the it fits |
| 1241s | perfectly for this time of year I mean |
| 1243s | definitely we did just have Thanksgiving |
| 1246s | feels kind of a little bit like |
| 1247s | Thanksgiving out |
| 1248s | here does does feel like Thanksgiving |
| 1250s | it's beautiful I really like the colors |
| 1252s | turning out really good abely it's my |
| 1255s | favorite season uh so far by have thanks |
| 1259s | G too or no hey no trying to get lore |
| 1263s | out of me this is an artisanship Focus |
| 1266s | give us one thing we won't leak during a |
| 1268s | live stream I |
| 1270s | know the one thing I really love the |
| 1274s | leas falling down effect just walking by |
| 1277s | nice speaking of of leaks however I know |
| 1280s | that I am uh playing a ranger class you |
| 1283s | might see a couple of early uh look at |
| 1285s | the ranger skills here in case we run |
| 1288s | into any potential resistances um but |
| 1291s | next month we are doing a ranger update |
| 1294s | and it's going to be pretty fun too so |
| 1296s | there's a little leak little leak nice I |
| 1299s | see how it is it's okay for skill |
| 1300s | abilities but not for the |
| 1302s | lore that is true that is true the L is |
| 1305s | safely |
| 1306s | unbelievable so we do have have some BS |
| 1309s | someone's chopping out there is that |
| 1310s | youan chopping yeah get a I see it |
| 1314s | falling in the distance where that's |
| 1316s | great over to the left |
| 1320s | I think he's up on that Hill are you |
| 1322s | trying to beat me to the |
| 1324s | uh here we go chop down some trees too |
| 1327s | oh we do we this is Ash we need Oak |
| 1329s | though right or do I need Oak |
| 1331s | yeah |
| 1333s | yeah yeah that be helpful Nathan just |
| 1337s | trying to become grandmas before you |
| 1338s | Sten exactly I will leave this land A |
| 1341s | baren |
| 1342s | Wasteland be no trees for you to chop he |
| 1344s | sicked some uh wolves on me yeah all |
| 1347s | part of my master |
| 1353s | plan |
| 1355s | nice yeah get the get a few of these |
| 1358s | Oaks at least enough to level up and |
| 1360s | then we need to find some Basalt Basalt |
| 1362s | is going to have the zinc and copper uh |
| 1365s | that you need oh here's some over on the |
| 1368s | ridge oh up the cliff yeah can you see |
| 1371s | me oo that area looks kind of Twisted |
| 1374s | and |
| 1375s | gross yeah oh wolf |
| 1384s | where oh |
| 1388s | wow really quickly what so now this area |
| 1393s | appears to have a little bit of a |
| 1394s | corruption that started seeping in looks |
| 1396s | like the citizens of this town aren't |
| 1398s | doing their |
| 1400s | job fight back the corruption old |
| 1403s | neighborhood's going to hell there here |
| 1406s | too yeah yeah I think you can grab those |
| 1408s | you're yeah it's naice yeah these are |
| 1411s | the new rubies that we just introduced |
| 1414s | with uh C physics enabled oh |
| 1416s | nice yeah um thanks to Noah and some |
| 1421s | magic from engineering uh when you see |
| 1423s | it gather it's you see that shutters oh |
| 1426s | that's awesome love that that's super |
| 1428s | cool additionally if you open your back |
| 1431s | space now um you'll see that your mining |
| 1433s | bag has now rubies and it prioritized |
| 1436s | based on your stack size oh let me see |
| 1438s | here hold on first let me gather a |
| 1441s | little bit |
| 1442s | of um look for some ass Sal I think |
| 1446s | there's some over here over here to the |
| 1449s | right there's one right there yeah |
| 1455s | go right here no this is opal |
| 1459s | nope opal I can't even interact with the |
| 1461s | opal no it's right here yeah |
| 1464s | but oh don't we |
| 1467s | need I think so I think we need night |
| 1470s | opal which is the one that only really |
| 1473s | appears at night um |
| 1477s | okay |
| 1482s | interesting oh I've gotten some Zink and |
| 1484s | basal nice okay so you got lucky you got |
| 1487s | the you got the drop chance so this gave |
| 1489s | me two things it gave me it gave me zinc |
| 1490s | as well yes yeah yeah so when you're |
| 1494s | when you're mining stone like we're |
| 1495s | trying to we're trying to do stuff that |
| 1496s | Mak sense right with the drops so you |
| 1498s | know in stone you'll find metal and gems |
| 1500s | and you know depending on the you the |
| 1503s | tier and the type of type of stone um |
| 1505s | there'll be different kind of selection |
| 1506s | of gems and stuff you can get in it uh |
| 1508s | or or Metals so um you may if you're |
| 1512s | trying to Target a certain you know |
| 1514s | metal you might want to consider um some |
| 1516s | particular Stone as well and um as you |
| 1519s | get better at at uh binding and doing |
| 1522s | Stone related stuff you'll kind of learn |
| 1524s | learn the ropes there so you can make |
| 1526s | better decisions okay cool additionally |
| 1529s | as you gather you can actually notice |
| 1531s | that your um durability goes down for |
| 1534s | your tools oh |
| 1536s | really |
| 1538s | see I'm using this pickaxe it's at |
| 1542s | 95 nice all right you got plenty of |
| 1545s | plenty of durability left it's good to |
| 1547s | good to repair when you get into town |
| 1548s | though so it kind of sucks when you find |
| 1550s | something real nice and your durability |
| 1552s | is low or tools broken and won't be able |
| 1554s | to it ah nice and I really love the the |
| 1559s | physics it's like I remember in the |
| 1560s | Gathering stream you know we're showing |
| 1562s | off um uh the trees and kind of like set |
| 1566s | a precedent with how that looks and now |
| 1569s | we have to make all the other stuff just |
| 1570s | as cool so the the rocks and gems of |
| 1573s | metal were like kind of a big big uh |
| 1575s | hurdle for us and having it in a place |
| 1578s | where it's starting to look really good |
| 1580s | that was super exciting that was a cool |
| 1582s | that was actually really cool that |
| 1584s | should definitely knock you over or kill |
| 1587s | you |
| 1588s | oh let's go hey there we go oh I've |
| 1591s | reached level 10 oh my God that just |
| 1595s | killed |
| 1597s | Mike I'm alive please can't kill me grab |
| 1602s | some some D maybe so you you leveled up |
| 1605s | you said yes it said I leveled up ah |
| 1607s | okay well you got to okay so when when |
| 1609s | you level up you're going to get some |
| 1610s | skill points and you should be able to |
| 1612s | put those in your in your skill tree um |
| 1616s | you should uh pop that open there we go |
| 1618s | okay yes I have a bunch already |
| 1620s | allocated but now I have two n points oh |
| 1623s | nice yeah you should spend those and |
| 1625s | book around in the tree a little bit but |
| 1627s | yeah um that is something that we're wed |
| 1629s | to do with artisanship both you know or |
| 1632s | in all three of the branches you'll |
| 1633s | you'll have skill trees for your |
| 1635s | profession so those skill trees you'll |
| 1637s | be able to find you know passives |
| 1638s | that'll give you uh stat bonuses and you |
| 1641s | know predicates for extra functionality |
| 1643s | within whatever the profession is access |
| 1645s | the stations um expand ending out some |
| 1648s | of the various systems like I don't know |
| 1650s | you can see some of the surveying ones |
| 1652s | right like you can uh add extra pylons |
| 1655s | or um extra uh scanning range and lower |
| 1659s | the cool down on how often you can |
| 1661s | survey so uh we're trying to make those |
| 1664s | trees uh interesting and give people you |
| 1666s | know different paths so they can |
| 1668s | progress through W that's cool yeah very |
| 1673s | cool um so obviously I'm looking at this |
| 1677s | uh the skill right now and I see one |
| 1679s | side is dealing primarily with yield the |
| 1681s | other side is dealing with um excuse me |
| 1685s | with Rarity with quality um the other |
| 1688s | side dealing with yield and then the |
| 1690s | Survey System yeah talk to me a little |
| 1694s | bit about um the Survey |
| 1697s | System yeah so surveying um is uh |
| 1702s | something that we're trying to use for |
| 1705s | gatherers to really kind of interact |
| 1707s | with uh the things that we want to do |
| 1709s | with our Dynamic world uh one of that is |
| 1712s | one of those things is we want to be |
| 1713s | able to spawn stuff randomly and we want |
| 1716s | to put it in uh places in the world that |
| 1719s | will make people you know travel and uh |
| 1721s | bolster up our um our local |
| 1724s | player-to-player economies have people |
| 1727s | you know kind of actually be out in the |
| 1728s | world looking for stuff and not um |
| 1731s | standing in the same place waiting for a |
| 1733s | tree or a flower to respawn over and |
| 1735s | over again so we're kind of we're kind |
| 1738s | of having the best of the Both Worlds |
| 1740s | where we have our lower tier stuff that |
| 1742s | will fill out you know the the base look |
| 1744s | of our world so that it's always kind of |
| 1746s | looking good um and then the higher tier |
| 1749s | stuff from Apprentice onward will will |
| 1751s | always kind of Spawn randomly in in |
| 1753s | places that we've deemed look uh you |
| 1755s | know look good and make sense for what |
| 1757s | that thing is um so surveying is a way |
| 1761s | that you can uh track that stuff down um |
| 1765s | it will help you uh find places will |
| 1768s | help you find particular resources will |
| 1770s | help you find resources at a certain |
| 1772s | Rarity um and yeah so it should be you |
| 1775s | know something you could do as a gather |
| 1777s | on your own or group up with other |
| 1778s | people to uh bolster up the um the power |
| 1782s | of your survey or the the the range or |
| 1785s | reach of it so um yeah it says I need a |
| 1790s | higher certification for this |
| 1792s | tree corrupted Oak gotcha well we just |
| 1795s | leveled up so I bet you if we went back |
| 1798s | to town oh my God there's something |
| 1800s | crazy or excuse there's |
| 1802s | something |
| 1803s | crazy oh no bleep that out bleep that |
| 1807s | out there's some dude up there that's |
| 1809s | awesome I I would say the same thing if |
| 1811s | I saw that ancient horror away from a |
| 1814s | gentleman yeah let's uh back up a little |
| 1817s | bit yep how are you doing on back spice |
| 1820s | by the way how am I doing on what say |
| 1821s | again back space yes let me open that up |
| 1824s | I have um three copper 22 Basalt 7 |
| 1828s | zinc uh five Ruby a number of dandelion |
| 1832s | and daffodils daffodils with some plant |
| 1836s | fibers okay that's cool and a bunch of |
| 1838s | uh wood and as you notice that all those |
| 1841s | materials actually sorted nicely in the |
| 1843s | appropriate bags based on your uh stack |
| 1845s | sizes oh yeah that is pretty nice so it |
| 1848s | didn't misplace them in a in a different |
| 1851s | bag than what is |
| 1853s | best yeah it prioritizes basically the |
| 1855s | best stack size first and then then it's |
| 1858s | finds the other empty spots |
| 1860s | after yeah that's a pretty nice quality |
| 1862s | of life feature definitely we we uh you |
| 1866s | know there is a lot of discussions about |
| 1869s | you know the the spatial inventory and |
| 1871s | the different stack sizes and you know |
| 1874s | whether that could cause like confusion |
| 1876s | for players or you know extra stress on |
| 1879s | um sorting of inventory and it was like |
| 1881s | all right well no M no matter what we do |
| 1883s | we got to try and make this U as easy |
| 1886s | and usable for players as possible and |
| 1888s | luckily really smart people like Alex |
| 1891s | and Alec and our UI team Kobe Kobe and |
| 1893s | the Gang uh that are helping us make um |
| 1898s | you know that the system that we want |
| 1900s | function really really nicely so uh |
| 1902s | that's one that was one of those |
| 1903s | features um that that came on that's |
| 1906s | like all right well I don't have to |
| 1907s | every single time I get something you |
| 1908s | know look and see what bag's the best |
| 1910s | for it to be in um the uh the code can |
| 1915s | do it for us so yep very cool nice we |
| 1921s | ready to head back now yeah let's uh |
| 1923s | let's head back to town and get your |
| 1924s | your uh your uh apprenti ship now |
| 1929s | obviously you know let's talk a little |
| 1931s | bit about how Gathering is a bit |
| 1935s | different in ashes um and one of the the |
| 1939s | most unique things about I think the |
| 1942s | world is obviously the number of |
| 1945s | different systems we have that change |
| 1947s | World State we just saw a corrupt Zone |
| 1951s | hold on let's K this |
| 1956s | dude oh okay he died um we just saw a |
| 1959s | corrupt Zone and um that zone becomes |
| 1963s | corrupt after a period of time in which |
| 1966s | players are not addressing some issues |
| 1968s | that arise uh through certain events or |
| 1971s | through through certain story arcs and |
| 1974s | that corruption can spread and |
| 1976s | Corruption Chang changes the spawners |
| 1980s | for resources and for Monsters and that |
| 1984s | has a fundamental effect on the resource |
| 1987s | economy of the |
| 1990s | game yeah definitely it plays into you |
| 1992s | know scarcity it gets players out in the |
| 1994s | world uh searching for um uh different |
| 1998s | things that are predicated on on the |
| 2000s | dynamic parts of our world right we can |
| 2002s | do stuff with day and night time we can |
| 2003s | do stuff with Seasons um we can have |
| 2006s | things that are specifically related to |
| 2008s | some event or story arc or you know |
| 2010s | corruption um even uh particular |
| 2013s | locations right regionality of a biome |
| 2016s | um some you know frozen tundra place |
| 2019s | that's uh completely covered in ice |
| 2021s | versus you know the the riverlands and |
| 2023s | um uh the lushness there so um don't |
| 2028s | want to just have that stuff in and not |
| 2031s | be doing anything with it so we're we're |
| 2033s | trying to play on that for for Gathering |
| 2036s | um and open up um the diversity of stuff |
| 2039s | that you can process and Craft um by |
| 2041s | finding those things so yeah I love that |
| 2044s | um we mentioned actually a time of day |
| 2048s | and seasonality as being part of that |
| 2050s | world State change um and as I |
| 2053s | understand whoops as I understand it we |
| 2056s | have a number of different oh let me see |
| 2058s | here go over |
| 2060s | to |
| 2063s | um |
| 2065s | recipes can I look at |
| 2068s | um we have to don't we have to gather |
| 2070s | some recipes or some materials that are |
| 2072s | predicated on time of day yeah I think |
| 2075s | they were those are the ones that we're |
| 2076s | talking about that were part of your |
| 2077s | night blade right uh the moon bells and |
| 2079s | the night Opals uh night Opals like do |
| 2083s | not reveal themselves um during the |
| 2086s | daytime um surprise surprise um and then |
| 2090s | the the moon bells are are similar yeah |
| 2092s | they they only bloom at night so um you |
| 2096s | if you're looking for those in |
| 2097s | particular particular you want to take |
| 2098s | uh keep an eye on the day night cycle |
| 2101s | and um you know know where they're found |
| 2104s | um in the world and yeah I do have some |
| 2108s | Powers if we want to perhaps change it |
| 2111s | to nighttime that I could use shall we |
| 2115s | cuz it it'll it it'll take a little |
| 2116s | while probably for us to get to |
| 2117s | nighttime at least another hour or so |
| 2121s | yeah okay let's do it all right hold on |
| 2124s | stand |
| 2126s | by |
| 2129s | oh my |
| 2131s | goodness there we go now oh okay think |
| 2135s | little freaky decky out here you guys |
| 2137s | will probably notice uh that the |
| 2140s | nighttime is |
| 2141s | significantly darker than when you guys |
| 2144s | last saw our nighttime update um we saw |
| 2147s | feedback from the community that |
| 2150s | bringing in the field of vision through |
| 2152s | the uh through the lighting in the |
| 2154s | environment was something you guys |
| 2155s | wanted to see and that's what we have |
| 2158s | adjusted a bit um now I'm excited |
| 2161s | because I have a certification that I |
| 2164s | can I think update now right yes you |
| 2168s | should be able to upgrade your uh |
| 2170s | lumberjacking to Apprentice which um |
| 2172s | give you access to new tool so we can |
| 2174s | craft one of those if you want um we |
| 2177s | should make your a you know chopping |
| 2178s | faster help you find some rare stuff um |
| 2182s | yeah all right let's see here I'm going |
| 2184s | to |
| 2186s | accept |
| 2188s | there we go |
| 2190s | t yeah so you I think if you open your |
| 2193s | artisanship window if you look at your |
| 2195s | lumberjacking it should say that you're |
| 2196s | an apprentice now yes there we go and |
| 2198s | you got you got a nice little chunk of |
| 2200s | XP from that too nice yeah that was |
| 2201s | pretty good um cool so um now that |
| 2204s | you've done that uh go I think this |
| 2209s | Anvil yeah this is the same Anvil as the |
| 2212s | herbalism see see if you can craft a a |
| 2215s | tool there what a what materials do you |
| 2218s | need it says that I need um zinc |
| 2220s | fragments and Oak Timber for a novice |
| 2223s | lumberjacking The Apprentice requires |
| 2226s | zinc fragments with copper fragments and |
| 2228s | Oak Timber awesome okay well um that's |
| 2232s | all novice stuff so um so the way that |
| 2236s | the certification stuff breaks down is |
| 2238s | that um every everyone gets to be a |
| 2239s | novice everything so all 22 professions |
| 2242s | the players get to uh be novice of um |
| 2245s | and then it starts kind of like |
| 2246s | narrowing from there so after that |
| 2248s | you'll only be able to be Apprentice of |
| 2250s | five things um you can be a journeyman |
| 2252s | in four things you can be a master in |
| 2254s | three things and you can be a grandmas |
| 2256s | in two things so you'll you'll need to |
| 2258s | narrow but you can also sort of |
| 2260s | diversify to support you know the |
| 2262s | professions that you want to First push |
| 2263s | further in so now obviously those are um |
| 2268s | those restrictions are in place in order |
| 2269s | to create a dependency cross player |
| 2273s | faction right for how players specialize |
| 2276s | their progression in the artisanship uh |
| 2279s | trees yeah I mean like uh being social |
| 2283s | is is uh important to us right like we |
| 2285s | we want players to interact with each |
| 2287s | other we want the professions to make |
| 2289s | stuff for the other professions that uh |
| 2291s | that are useful you know um I um |
| 2295s | influenced quite a bit by the Star Wars |
| 2297s | Galaxies style crafting and you know |
| 2299s | just having people in your network that |
| 2301s | could you know Supply the the uh metal |
| 2303s | that you need to make your armor and the |
| 2306s | you know the the flowers that you need |
| 2308s | to to make your potions and you know |
| 2310s | maybe the potions that you need to make |
| 2311s | your enchantments uh that that to me was |
| 2315s | really interesting and part of the the |
| 2317s | gameplay of the economic gameplay of you |
| 2319s | know being being a good crafter being a |
| 2321s | good gather is having that um that |
| 2323s | system so and it and it really plays |
| 2325s | into the um the uh uh economic uh field |
| 2332s | of a particular server right um You you |
| 2334s | can come in and be like I want to be the |
| 2337s | the potion Mogul here right and like |
| 2339s | having good sources and you know having |
| 2341s | having a guild that supports you uh is |
| 2344s | just really really interesting and |
| 2346s | without um without sort of narrowing |
| 2349s | down what you have access to yourself um |
| 2352s | uh it's sort it takes away from from the |
| 2356s | ability to achieve that right so yeah so |
| 2358s | now okay we're going to be creating this |
| 2360s | you said Apprentice tools what do I need |
| 2363s | to do that it said fragments in |
| 2365s | fragments and um I think copper |
| 2367s | fragments awesome so the zinc fragments |
| 2370s | and copper fragments are going to be |
| 2372s | from the metal working profession and |
| 2374s | then the Oak Timber will be from the |
| 2377s | lumber Milling profession so since we're |
| 2379s | here we can do the lumber milling and |
| 2380s | this is the station that you need right |
| 2382s | next to us so this is the debarker this |
| 2384s | is one of the the few stations that |
| 2386s | Lumber Milling has has the the debarker |
| 2390s | the heads saww um and I think the drying |
| 2392s | Kil along with the refinery so this is |
| 2395s | the the novice station |
| 2398s | um and I think this is an apprentice |
| 2399s | version here um since we're at a service |
| 2401s | building that's built um the service |
| 2403s | buildings usually come stocked with some |
| 2405s | some uh some better base stations and |
| 2407s | then you can kind of um progress them |
| 2410s | from there depending on how you you |
| 2411s | expand the buildings but um so why don't |
| 2414s | you interact with this and uh yeah I |
| 2417s | think this is the first time that we've |
| 2418s | ever done any processing processing yes |
| 2421s | absolutely now we we alluded to it a |
| 2422s | little bit when we were showcasing the |
| 2424s | uh the freeh holds uh but |
| 2427s | this is everyone's first look at kind of |
| 2430s | how processing works and um as you said |
| 2433s | we're looking to make some Oak Timber |
| 2435s | here um and as I've clicked on the Oak |
| 2438s | Timber to add fuel it says to the Oak |
| 2442s | Timber side talk to me Mike a little bit |
| 2444s | about what fuel does for |
| 2448s | processing so fuel is the basic |
| 2451s | requirements on top of the resources |
| 2453s | that you need to craft a thing so every |
| 2456s | processing station will require some |
| 2457s | kind of a fuel to automate the process |
| 2462s | to make these processed uh resources |
| 2465s | though most of the resources or any type |
| 2467s | of resource or items could technically |
| 2470s | have a fuel value attached to them and |
| 2472s | then each recipe will require some kind |
| 2474s | of a fuel value to uh to be met to be |
| 2478s | able to process these things so think of |
| 2480s | it as like if you're melting um ore you |
| 2483s | need to put uh fuel the fire to melt the |
| 2485s | ore right so that kind concept exists on |
| 2488s | all our processing stations so when you |
| 2490s | click on it uh you should be able to put |
| 2493s | the oak wood or anything that you have |
| 2496s | gathered oak wood yeah so I've added one |
| 2500s | of the oak wood and then I see I also |
| 2503s | have a number of different of um |
| 2504s | herbalism resources here as well do |
| 2507s | those act as fuel potentially yeah um |
| 2509s | most of our resources will have some |
| 2511s | kind of a Fel value to it and like I |
| 2513s | mentioned like some items too but for |
| 2514s | for this recipe you'll only need one |
| 2516s | some other recipes might need 100 or 50 |
| 2519s | etc etc but the the thing is um some |
| 2522s | some items may be just um catered |
| 2526s | towards being a fuel right so something |
| 2527s | like charcoal or something like coal |
| 2529s | something like um anything that is just |
| 2531s | designated as a fuel will just have a |
| 2534s | very um efficient fuel value so you kind |
| 2537s | of want to save that for higher recipes |
| 2539s | or something simple like this one you |
| 2541s | can pretty much use anything that's |
| 2542s | common or or or lower or degrade or |
| 2546s | sorry |
| 2547s | the the tier one items uh to be in the |
| 2550s | fuel okay so i' so I've added in the |
| 2554s | wood for the fuel and now it's it has my |
| 2557s | fuel has been selected and I can start |
| 2559s | the job it says that the duration is 1 |
| 2561s | minute now I'm noticing at the top of |
| 2564s | the processing station that we have uh |
| 2567s | three available slots is that a queue |
| 2570s | that players can use um and is it shared |
| 2575s | is it for just themselves me about that |
| 2578s | for node it's personal so we didn't want |
| 2581s | to congest like only three spots for |
| 2584s | every single person in the not that |
| 2586s | would have been pretty bad um so it's |
| 2588s | the the Q system is only for yourself |
| 2591s | but um something personal like freeh |
| 2593s | holds um would be um station based so if |
| 2596s | five people wanted to use one one |
| 2598s | station at the Freehold you have to wait |
| 2599s | in line and then that kind of comes into |
| 2602s | the family system we talked about on the |
| 2603s | free hole live stream where you want to |
| 2606s | have uh limited access to whoever is |
| 2608s | viable for the fuel or for the stations |
| 2612s | um but for any service buildings in the |
| 2614s | node um is all personal so you can queue |
| 2616s | up as much as you want and then someone |
| 2618s | else can just come by and use the same |
| 2620s | station and then que up for their |
| 2621s | station that's awesome additionally it |
| 2625s | will also be influenced by nodes so like |
| 2627s | right now you see three but it could be |
| 2628s | five it could be two simultaneous jobs |
| 2630s | Etc based how your node grows got it so |
| 2633s | there are specializations that the |
| 2635s | processor can take uh if the node should |
| 2638s | elect to do so citizens participate in |
| 2641s | that upgrade that would increase that |
| 2643s | size or perhaps even the efficiency of |
| 2646s | the processing jobs as well both speed |
| 2649s | uh quantity of receipt any Rarity procs |
| 2651s | anything all of those play a role and |
| 2654s | upgrade potential uh that the node might |
| 2656s | choose to specialize in right but um |
| 2659s | just like we we discussing uh free live |
| 2661s | stream as well the node um processing |
| 2663s | only goes up to journeyman so if you |
| 2665s | want to do the highest tier of uh |
| 2668s | processing you you probably want to seek |
| 2670s | out the freeold uh owners |
| 2675s | basically |
| 2677s | uhoh did I I I might be full hold on I |
| 2682s | can't claim it yet I need to I need to |
| 2686s | who needs this this cheap glint here |
| 2690s | actually move that down I I didn't mean |
| 2693s | to delete that whoops um okay you just |
| 2696s | throwing money away that's how rich sure |
| 2698s | pretty much um additional thing I would |
| 2700s | like to add for processing U as you can |
| 2703s | you could you could cancel the job um |
| 2706s | also so like let's say you accidentally |
| 2707s | scheduled wrong one and the only thing |
| 2709s | that gets consumed is the fuel so fuel |
| 2711s | is basically a SN for these job got it |
| 2716s | okay so fuel's always sunk regardless of |
| 2718s | if you cancel the job or not yeah |
| 2720s | another uh another thing as well is that |
| 2723s | um uh when you're when you're choosing |
| 2725s | the job you'll see kind of on the on the |
| 2728s | right hand side that we have something |
| 2729s | called job size oops and right now uh |
| 2732s | right now there's only the ability to |
| 2734s | make a one job size but um this in the |
| 2737s | same vein of um you know this having |
| 2740s | like more jobs that you can cue and like |
| 2742s | you know better stats that make the them |
| 2744s | go faster or proc extra resources uh job |
| 2747s | size is another thing that we could do |
| 2749s | right um so you you probably don't want |
| 2752s | to use three entire slots just to make |
| 2755s | you know three pieces of Oak would but |
| 2757s | if you had a job size that you know was |
| 2758s | 20 um you'd be able to uh make all 20 of |
| 2762s | those with the with the one job size so |
| 2764s | um so that's a little different than |
| 2766s | what people are used to with you know I |
| 2768s | I'm making exactly you know 17 pieces of |
| 2771s | of Oak Timber you might need to you know |
| 2773s | do a job SI of five plus one if you need |
| 2777s | specifically six so um that's awesome |
| 2780s | those are also influenced by |
| 2782s | customization options that the node can |
| 2783s | participate in uh as well and perhaps |
| 2786s | policies and or relics like all those |
| 2788s | things are an intricate web uh Boons |
| 2791s | benefits and downsides that apply to |
| 2793s | these different game functions exactly |
| 2796s | yeah very cool love it all right so we |
| 2799s | made some Timber gotcha yeah let's head |
| 2802s | let's head down to uh the Smithy over |
| 2805s | here there should be a crushing station |
| 2807s | you can crush up the the copper and zinc |
| 2809s | that you got into fragments and then we |
| 2811s | should have what we need to make you a |
| 2813s | new pickaxe or um axe |
| 2817s | um yeah this is the crushing crushing |
| 2819s | station right here |
| 2822s | nice all |
| 2825s | right all right it's really nice of you |
| 2827s | to have built all of these uh Artisans |
| 2829s | ship service buildings look at look at |
| 2831s | all these jobs that you're creating this |
| 2832s | guy stays here he gets to hang out all |
| 2835s | night rushing |
| 2836s | rocks doing stuff that is awesome yeah |
| 2840s | great for the economy really really |
| 2842s | great mayorship uh decision thank you |
| 2844s | thank you very much that's why I'm I'm a |
| 2846s | term after term mayor just no term |
| 2848s | limits at all it's the way we like it |
| 2850s | here right my my personal Investments |
| 2854s | have somehow miraculously just had the |
| 2856s | greatest returns of any citizen of the |
| 2858s | mayor agreed I think there's only other |
| 2860s | been one other mayor that was Alec and I |
| 2862s | haven't seen him for a really long time |
| 2864s | so right that is right po Al his family |
| 2868s | members actually came by looking for him |
| 2870s | too oh |
| 2872s | no okay so I need to make copper |
| 2874s | fragments and zinc fragments yeah so I'm |
| 2876s | going to kick off I'm going to add some |
| 2877s | fuel here um oh okay cool that's cool |
| 2882s | put this and I'll kick that job off and |
| 2885s | then I'll use the sink oh my God you see |
| 2889s | the NPC working real hard yeah he is |
| 2892s | that he's a go-getter I didn't even |
| 2893s | start the other job yet he just |
| 2895s | immediately went to work he needs a |
| 2898s | rise there we go cool okay yeah and uh |
| 2902s | just a just a comment too on the on that |
| 2905s | right like um we're trying to sort of |
| 2907s | marry the the visuals with what's |
| 2909s | actually going on with the station right |
| 2911s | so if you have a job queued um and |
| 2913s | you're trying to you know do errands |
| 2914s | throughout the node or in your Freehold |
| 2916s | or whatever right like should be able to |
| 2918s | look at the station and know what's |
| 2919s | going on with it so you know he's there |
| 2921s | working and you know once he's done he's |
| 2923s | going to stop and you can be like okay |
| 2924s | you know there's there's stuff ready to |
| 2926s | to pick up and have some visuals |
| 2928s | associated with that so U as much as we |
| 2931s | can have stuff you know rooted in World |
| 2933s | instead of you know throwing a bunch of |
| 2935s | UI in the play players face uh that's |
| 2937s | that's something that we're trying to do |
| 2938s | and is important to us that's very cool |
| 2941s | yeah and to add to that it's uh personal |
| 2943s | right so it's only like other people |
| 2945s | won't see you doing your U processing |
| 2948s | got it yeah in in nodes right the free |
| 2950s | the free hold ones would be uh since |
| 2953s | they are relevant to any of the people |
| 2954s | that have access to it You' you'd be |
| 2956s | able to see that uh that a job is going |
| 2959s | [Music] |
| 2961s | right this guy is a is a is a dedicated |
| 2964s | worker yeah yeah definitely so now just |
| 2969s | to remind folks obviously when we talk |
| 2971s | about um processing as one branch of The |
| 2975s | Artisans ship tree even though you have |
| 2978s | access to all branches throughout the |
| 2980s | world up to some level of |
| 2983s | degree processing best processing is |
| 2986s | done on freeh holds and the best |
| 2989s | crafting is done in nodes right when we |
| 2992s | talk about workstation availability but |
| 2994s | there is some overlap there as those of |
| 2996s | you who remember from our Freehold uh uh |
| 3000s | uh live stream um you do have up to a |
| 3004s | certain point to progress available to |
| 3006s | you for both Gathering processing and |
| 3009s | crafting uh without needing necessarily |
| 3011s | a |
| 3012s | free yeah exactly so up to U journeyman |
| 3017s | you'll be um journeyman's uh type of |
| 3020s | gathering crafting and processing should |
| 3022s | be available pretty much everywhere um |
| 3024s | and then there the spe specializations |
| 3026s | really kicks in at the master and |
| 3029s | above |
| 3032s | awesome all right I have I believe |
| 3036s | acquired now some |
| 3039s | fragments on well let's uh let's head |
| 3042s | back up to the crafting station um next |
| 3045s | to good old W Woody gungan and uh make |
| 3048s | yourself an apprentice Axe and I think |
| 3051s | we should be able to chop that corrupted |
| 3053s | tree down yeah that's right |
| 3056s | and then also now that it's night while |
| 3058s | we're out there you guys could grab |
| 3059s | perhaps some of the um what were the |
| 3061s | other ones that I needed uh the night |
| 3064s | opal yeah I think Mike has high enough |
| 3065s | mining to get the M opal night opal um |
| 3068s | and then I think I think New Moon bells |
| 3070s | are novice so you should have access to |
| 3072s | those yep yep all right so I'll grab the |
| 3075s | moon |
| 3076s | Bells Perfect all right I'm crafting my |
| 3079s | new Apprentice lumberjacking axe T it is |
| 3084s | equipped nice |
| 3086s | me see cool a very cool it's there how |
| 3091s | fast is it it's 30 lumberjacking speed |
| 3094s | nice I think the other one was like only |
| 3095s | five so you should be fast when we get |
| 3097s | out there we should race see if you can |
| 3098s | drop the tree down faster than me all |
| 3100s | right let's do it I'm ready let's |
| 3106s | go |
| 3108s | um I actually really like the nighttime |
| 3111s | I I think it was call from the community |
| 3114s | to to tune this a bit more on the darker |
| 3116s | side oh a shooting star do you see that |
| 3119s | 's see a shooting star make a wish oh |
| 3123s | yeah look at that Moon yeah I did I did |
| 3125s | look at the Moon Moon's looking pretty |
| 3128s | nice I think it might need a little |
| 3132s | atmosphere I like the uh the harbinger |
| 3134s | Moon we is the moon getting |
| 3138s | closer no don't say that that's not what |
| 3141s | we want to hear kill the moon so Cory |
| 3146s | tell me a little bit like when we right |
| 3149s | now we're in this night phase oh I love |
| 3151s | the fireflies too Noah did a great job |
| 3153s | on these yeah Noah Noah is next level we |
| 3156s | love Noah Noah we love |
| 3159s | you um obviously moving to night now is |
| 3163s | going to give us access to these Moon |
| 3165s | bells and these night |
| 3166s | Opals um but when things like the world |
| 3170s | State change whether it be corruption |
| 3171s | related or time of day it's not just an |
| 3174s | introduction of rare material it also is |
| 3177s | a removal of some other materials as |
| 3178s | well potentially so it's a it is a um |
| 3182s | and some World State changes like we |
| 3184s | talked about with corruption if not |
| 3186s | addressed can significantly alter the |
| 3189s | flow of resources across the world in |
| 3191s | such a way that creates a bit of |
| 3193s | turbulence in the world market and |
| 3194s | economy and that's what we're trying to |
| 3196s | achieve with these World State |
| 3198s | changes yeah you see |
| 3201s | um uh out in the open the NS lit up |
| 3205s | those little blue lights all over the |
| 3207s | place that wasn't there before yeah yeah |
| 3210s | you can see Moon as well by the |
| 3214s | trees oh yeah |
| 3217s | there up that's awesome those were just |
| 3220s | kind of just basic little rocks yeah so |
| 3224s | that's like a you know we we we thought |
| 3226s | those were all Opals and they were Opals |
| 3228s | during the day but uh at night um you |
| 3230s | know some of them are actually night |
| 3231s | Opals so um pretty cool oh look leveled |
| 3235s | up again oh I leveled up my |
| 3238s | herbalism herbalism God herbal literal |
| 3242s | herbalism |
| 3244s | God yeah these Moon Bells didn't exist |
| 3246s | before too we're at the same spot yeah |
| 3249s | oh my god oh no the |
| 3252s | wolf give me you want |
| 3256s | to protect |
| 3262s | him Mike no I'm like max level so just |
| 3265s | slaughtering these |
| 3268s | W can you pet the dog Stephen no but I |
| 3271s | can shoot it with an arrow in the face |
| 3273s | faster than me wait let's chop the trees |
| 3275s | down together that's right here St right |
| 3277s | where you at where you at right |
| 3280s | here all right I'll |
| 3282s | start all right wait no no wait no wait |
| 3285s | okay 3 2 1 |
| 3287s | go wait no we messed up we messed up we |
| 3290s | messed up we can do this we can do this |
| 3291s | how many people does it take to chop |
| 3292s | down a tree okay I'm pretty sure it |
| 3294s | doesn't matter you wa faster |
| 3296s | 2 |
| 3300s | 3 oh you just got wrecked excuse me got |
| 3306s | wrecked this is where PVP |
| 3309s | starts excuse me |
| 3311s | sir he's already purple let's go cut |
| 3315s | down that uh corrupted tree oh yeah |

| 3371s | like you want to take on this ancient |
| 3373s | minion over |
| 3375s | here I think we need to Ste time that |
| 3378s | was like less than two seconds yeah that |
| 3381s | was really I was like in there and out |
| 3383s | of there what maybe uh a little |
| 3386s | balancing pass necessary take that note |
| 3388s | down |
| 3390s | Mike incoming yep way to go stepen |
| 3394s | already nerfing Lumberjack I |
| 3396s | know yep all right let's so now we do we |
| 3400s | have all the materials we need did you |
| 3401s | guys get the night |
| 3402s | oples yeah I got some all right sweet |
| 3405s | can trade you back in town let's do it |
| 3409s | let's get rid of this |
| 3413s | guy very good goodness oh that was |
| 3418s | unfortunate animal abuse pet |
| 3421s | up so now talk to me a little bit about |
| 3424s | the sword that we're going to be |
| 3425s | crafting um |
| 3429s | obviously itemization in ashes of |
| 3431s | creation is not |
| 3434s | restricted um based on class right so |
| 3436s | anybody can wear kind of anything |
| 3438s | whatever is most beneficial towards |
| 3440s | their particular strategy and class kit |
| 3442s | and and build um but how do we influence |
| 3446s | that from a crafting |
| 3448s | perspective so the recipe that you |
| 3451s | learned is somewhat of a unique sword uh |
| 3454s | we want to introduce as uh mid- level |
| 3456s | maybe a little bit high but generally |
| 3459s | for itemization purposes we want to have |
| 3462s | a viable option for every build that |
| 3465s | players want to try I know that's a |
| 3467s | whole statement knows where his uh city |
| 3469s | is |
| 3472s | yeah where are we going we have a mini |
| 3474s | map |
| 3475s | guys come on this way I always get lost |
| 3478s | out here when I take my nightly |
| 3480s | strolls just over to |
| 3483s | the okay all right sorry Mike to left to |
| 3487s | the left got it to the left okay |
| 3490s | um what was I saying anyways um I was |
| 3493s | saying that uh we want to support every |
| 3496s | kind of build that player wants to try |
| 3498s | out and I know that's a full statement |
| 3499s | but that is something that we're going |
| 3500s | to attempt uh which means a lot of |
| 3503s | crafting recipes will need to support |
| 3504s | variable stats variable play Styles and |
| 3507s | for for this weapon for particular was |
| 3510s | um somewhat of a uh unique sword because |
| 3513s | it's a sword that has mag magic |
| 3515s | penetration so something that Mages |
| 3517s | maybe to might be able to use or um |
| 3520s | clerics um and then if we go to the |
| 3524s | crafter crafting station right here all |
| 3528s | right you should give them the my right |
| 3534s | uh trade |
| 3537s | you |
| 3540s | done okay we got some night Opals |
| 3544s | sweet acting |
| 3547s | trade all right boom got some night opal |
| 3554s | do so now I see I have my learned recipe |
| 3557s | the night blade is under weapons |
| 3559s | category okay that's cool yeah um last |
| 3563s | sure we touched on this on different |
| 3565s | live streams but uh our crafting menus |
| 3567s | will have some required materials so |
| 3569s | those are the things that you must have |
| 3571s | at that certain Rarity so the N up opal |
| 3574s | and the moon Bell that's required and |
| 3575s | then we have the selectable section |
| 3577s | where you can put different uh Rarity |
| 3580s | amounts um you want to do the uh the |
| 3583s | zinc one first Stephen so out of there |
| 3587s | and then zc one and then now you can see |
| 3589s | that the item itself was uncommon and |
| 3593s | then if you add the fragments in oh I |
| 3595s | see what you're saying I see what you're |
| 3596s | saying the so the uncommon night blade |
| 3599s | is |
| 3601s | here by adding in these legendary zinc |
| 3604s | fragments yep if you Summit it now it |
| 3606s | turns rare oh okay cool and now you can |
| 3610s | see there's additional properties onto |
| 3612s | the item uh so things change and then if |
| 3614s | you put the Oak Timber also at legendary |
| 3617s | also legendary Oak okay got it and then |
| 3620s | now it becomes the heroic version of it |
| 3622s | and then that's increase um so these are |
| 3624s | the things we kind of want to explore on |
| 3626s | Crafting side where we introduce maybe |
| 3629s | new stat line or a different proportion |
| 3632s | or ratios of stats at certain uh tiers |
| 3635s | and when you craft these items with |
| 3638s | using better materials the Rarity of the |
| 3640s | item increases um for demonstration |
| 3643s | purposes we're using legendary but um |
| 3646s | basically when you use a higher tier |
| 3648s | then the ree is intended for so we could |
| 3650s | technically build this item with common |
| 3653s | and zinc fragments then that would |
| 3655s | produce an uncommon item but since we're |
| 3658s | showcasing this at legendary tier um you |
| 3660s | can move up the tiers and uh have the |
| 3663s | step increase that's awesome and so |
| 3665s | obviously there's going to be a number |
| 3666s | of different types of selecta that you |
| 3668s | can incorporate as part of the crafting |
| 3670s | process each of them having unique |
| 3672s | results as part of the stat block for |
| 3674s | the weapon but also increasing the |
| 3676s | quality predicated on the quality of the |
| 3679s | selectable that you're contributing |
| 3681s | right that would be our sub recipe |
| 3682s | system that we'll kind of Highly touch |
| 3685s | on U so um a common copper sword might |
| 3688s | have sub recipes that changes the stat |
| 3690s | block completely which would be um let's |
| 3693s | say a brutal copper sword which um |
| 3696s | specializes in crit damage but that |
| 3698s | would be changing the selectable items |
| 3700s | it's from Oak Timber to Ash timber for |
| 3702s | example right and then when it's on a |
| 3705s | selectable level we can choose the the |
| 3707s | Rarity of those resources to increase |
| 3709s | the Rarity of the item produced awesome |
| 3712s | and each time you're kind of unlocking a |
| 3714s | different result with with regards to |
| 3716s | that particular recipe you're learning |
| 3719s | that interaction between the selectable |
| 3721s | materials and the output that comes from |
| 3723s | it so learning one recipe actually |
| 3725s | learns you a multitude of different |
| 3727s | potential um uh uh uh rewards from that |
| 3731s | one particular recipe yeah um we have |
| 3736s | something yeah uh something unique in |
| 3738s | our crafting system where we want to |
| 3740s | have recipe XP of some sort and then |
| 3743s | those sub recipes could earned by um |
| 3746s | leveling up your recipe which means that |
| 3748s | you have to craft the night blade |
| 3749s | multiple times to level it up to have a |
| 3751s | better result uh the sub recipe could be |
| 3753s | from a vendor recipe or World drops like |
| 3756s | we said earlier um but the idea is one |
| 3759s | type of item can have potential to be |
| 3762s | multiple different outcomes cool awesome |
| 3765s | okay let me go ahead and craft this |
| 3769s | weapon we've done it we've received a |
| 3772s | night Blade the loop is is complete oh |
| 3776s | my God we made it through the entire |
| 3780s | Loop let |
| 3781s | me I know let's see let's take a look at |
| 3785s | what we have in our inventory here so I |
| 3790s | see we have a heroic night blade that's |
| 3792s | doing some physical damage and magical |
| 3794s | penetration with some magical damage as |
| 3796s | well and if I compare that current lead |
| 3799s | my Longbow obviously we have some |
| 3800s | comparable version there but let me go |
| 3802s | ahead and equip this |
| 3805s | oh that looks |
| 3808s | good that looks awesome you're styling |
| 3810s | you are styling you put in the work and |
| 3812s | now you're styling oh I love it that |
| 3814s | looks super cool sweet very |
| 3819s | nice let me see here raise it up for the |
| 3821s | fam yeah I got I got to I got to get the |
| 3823s | right perspective here hold on stand by |
| 3827s | ladies and gentlemen we have crafted |
| 3830s | world |
| 3831s | first on the night blade |
| 3835s | we have done it |
| 3841s | yeah very cool so guys we just walked |
| 3844s | through from start to finish crafting |
| 3847s | one particular recipe of course of many |
| 3850s | as itemization is a very key component |
| 3853s | of of player progression within the |
| 3855s | within the world of Vera um and as you |
| 3857s | can see from Gathering to processing to |
| 3861s | crafting um this is the type of |
| 3863s | experience and the unique aspects uh of |
| 3866s | that process that is uh within ashes of |
| 3869s | creation we do these demonstrations so |
| 3871s | that you guys get an early look during |
| 3873s | development on the direction of this |
| 3876s | particular core Loop this core system to |
| 3878s | ashes um and we want your feedback on it |
| 3881s | what did you think about the Gathering |
| 3882s | the processing the stations those the |
| 3885s | times that it takes the CU system for it |
| 3888s | um the unique interactions with the |
| 3889s | recipes the progression of the recipes |
| 3892s | um uh the tool dependencies and the the |
| 3895s | skill tree that you saw um the unique |
| 3897s | World state that influences the economy |
| 3899s | and the ability of of players to |
| 3901s | accumulate these resources and move them |
| 3903s | across the world we're fresh off of a |
| 3905s | caravan stream as well where you kind of |
| 3908s | see uh how those materials those |
| 3911s | resources that wealth gets acred and |
| 3913s | trans transited across the world um so |
| 3918s | all of these things are things we want |
| 3919s | you to aine on in our YouTube uh on the |
| 3922s | forums on different social medias talk |
| 3924s | to us about what you saw today uh and |
| 3927s | how you feel about it where do you think |
| 3928s | that it could be improved um and how it |
| 3930s | relates to your previous experiences and |
| 3932s | other MMOs that you've played and what |
| 3933s | you've enjoyed about them um but |
