Back in 2009, I was introduced to SWTOR's Deceived cinematic trailer by G4's coverage of E3 at the age of ten. After that moment, I followed the game pretty religiously. Every Friday, there would be a development update. It would be an article or a video and they were always awesome. My favorite updates, however, were the Timeline videos that would give lore on the current era in which you were playing in SWTOR as well as additional eras to catch the player up to speed (Great Hyperspace War, Exar Kun War, Jedi Civil War, etc.) It was a great boon because it allowed you to get fully immersed in the universe before the game came out.
Right now, Ashes seems very focused on systems, which makes perfect sense and obviously takes priority over lore in regard to game development. However, I just think adding more lore updates would be a nice addition to the process. I know there is concern over spoiling the surprises of the universe, but that wasn't a problem for SWTOR, so it shouldn't be a problem here. Big reveals need not be shown, just something for us to chew on while we wait.
What do you all think? Thanks for reading.
