This is a super neat thread. Love the proposal of theory crafting while we wait for more Tulnar news to drop. I love the suggestions and interpretations people are bringing for the Tulnar. I hope to see more contributions to this thread, with lots of thoughts and ideas! Especially with the prompts that @Solvryn provided :)

I imagine a lot more rags and dirt, from living underground. And rat-based features.
There are a few different interpretations of what the Tulnar could be, so even this one is interesting!

I'm personally not the biggest fan of thinking of WoW as the MMORPG above all, that needs usurping. Sure, people only have so much time and they'll dedicate that time to the games they enjoy, and sometimes that becomes the most accessible, easy-to-play, or most popular game, and that's ok!

Everyone at Intrepid is setting out to make the best possible MMORPG that we can, and the one we all want to play. However, it's not going to be for everyone, which is ok! As long as we have a community that enjoys the game, and we're able to keep it going, we win! Of course, it would be wonderful if Ashes of Creation becomes the next most popular MMORPG! Though, we don't necessarily need to dethrone or kill another game to be successful :)

This is just my own personal 2 cents on the matter. I'd be curious to hear how you all feel about this! <3

Both small and large guilds will have parts to play in PvP such as node sieges :)

Be sure to check out the wiki, where you can learn much about the many systems of Ashes of Creation!

How do those affect the gameplay? Stats/skills/Augments or what do they provide?

Backgrounds are similar to "racials" in other games.

Instead of the race you choose giving certain benefits, players will select a "background." We want players to have the freedom to choose the race they want to play because they're excited about it, and avoid situations where players feel forced to play a specific race because of gameplay benefits.

We spoke about this during the February 2023 Development Update. Timestamp to where that conversation begins.

What's the point of showcasing a primarily PvP-oriented system without heavily focusing on and explaining the PvP part in detail? No one really cares about this fluff in a forced PvP game, the fluff is just there to provide a venue for PKing (and people who care about it definitely aren't your target audience since they don't want forced PvP).

What people need to see is what they will experience in the actual game (so either being able to run caravans 24/7 because they're in the freefarm guild and no one dares to attack them, or not being able to run them because they're not in the freefarm guild so they're being ganked 24/7). If you have a third option that somehow solves this issue that existed in every single sandbox PvP game so far, why didn't you just explain it?

This just looks like gameplay on an opt-in PvP server, which you already said you won't have, so who are you trying to attract with this misrepresentation of the system and why?

One of our goals of these Development Updates is getting feedback on specific systems. This month we want feedback on Caravans, and connected systems like Glint and Commodities.

We felt that bringing PvP into today's stream would have dominated the conversation, and taken away from what we're looking to discuss with players. There will definitely be a time to talk PvP in the future, but that wasn't what our focus was for this update. ⚔

You can gather materials and carry them back to a Node, where you can do things like sell them or put them in other storage you have.

Caravans are a different way to transport materials. You can learn more about Caravans in the October 2023 Development Update livestream, and in the wiki here.
