I didn't know exactly where to ask this but if it's not the place please tell me! I few questions for developers and would love to hear from some other players' opinions. I am so excited about the game to release but I am concerned about longevity. Will this game have enough story and common ground between servers to make it relatable. For example, World of Warcraft has built so much lore with characters like Sylvanas, the lich king, and many more. Does Ashes intend to create this depth in characters and lore? I think the story is a huge part of what attaches people to video games would love to see more lore developed before release.
Hiya! As some other helpful folks in this thread have already mentioned, there is indeed expansive lore behind the world of Verra - some of which has already been shared, but much of which will be up to you to discover in-game while you're playing!
In terms of "common ground" as OP mentions, while there is some lore fundamental to Verra itself, the node system means that what happens on one server may be totally different than another server (such as quests unlocking, events completing, etc.), so each server will have its own rich story and history to tell over time!
