Hi there! Definitely expect for your progress and characters to be wiped multiple times during Alphas and Betas, and then again prior to launch - since we'll be testing a lot of stuff with your help! I'm not quite sure where you saw that Alpha Two would last for a month (perhaps you were referring to our Alpha One phase), but as of this moment Alpha Two is planned to be our persistent test server: https://ashesofcreation.wiki/Alpha-2

Hiya friends! We'll definitely be expanding and specifying the categories here on the forums as we get closer to having you test particular themes and topics, so you can begin providing your feedback and commentary in the specific sections we designate :smiley: there have already been some great suggestions shared here and in other threads about what categories you'd like to see moving forward! <3

Costumes cover everything. You do not get them as separate pieces.

The accessory items that are separate can be pieced together with other items though. <3

We're 100% okay with that. Don't spend money unless you think it's the right thing to do for you. <3

I will never understand their artists' compulsion to put insect wings on random mammals. I get it's fantasy but just use normal wings that actually look like they have a chance at lifting the animal up.

Don't get caught up in the real-life elements. Have a little imagination and come away with us into a fantastical land where there are all sorts of creatures. ;)

You're a very talented artist with a great imagination. Always eagerly anticipating the monthly fomo you deliver!

I just design them. Our lovely concept artist Dave does the art and makes them come to life!

But yes, our artists are amazingly talented!

We need to get up high to get a lay of the land. Then we can snowboard down 🏂

💫Whoosh...#SoLongSanctus 👋 We step through the Divine Gateways, landing in a deserted clearing. Let's take a look around...

🗻To the west, there are snow-covered mountains.
🌲To the east, there are trees as far as the eye can see.

Which way should we go?

Sure, thanks for the link. Nothing existed before Peon you have to understand. :)

🤔 This was published a long while ago. =P

Impressive. Will we have any kind of costumes/mounts like this available only in-game? I always like to look unique and different.

These are exclusive to the month.

You may see variants for and on NPCs, but no other players can attain them.

Although, there will be tons of rad things for people to get in-game through adventuring as well.

Nope. These are exclusive to the month.

You're helping us build the world though, so you may see variants of these creatures, outfits, and buildings in the world as NPCs and NPC structures, but no one else will be able to attain them.

That said, we'll have plenty of other awesome and cool things for folks to get through adventuring in the world of Verra! <3

Really appreciate them appealing to a wide range of styles with each month. Too many games stick to the classic tough medieval look and don't embrace unique fantasy enough.

<3 Yeah, not every month will be for everyone. I try to swap up the designs each month.

I'd love to see the mount in water.

I can imagine it being like a lilypad, though with the autumn leaves and the head peeking out. :)

Aw, that would be cool! Will definitely forward that suggestion along to the team. =P

Sure, but I think your community would appreciate a more technical video by one of your developers than Steven who "can't see shit".

I for one would love to see a pipeline video of animations and how you intend to have your characters really feel impactful (physically/literally speaking) in the world.

You mean like... https://youtu.be/IU86nZR4kBw

:) We'll have more Dev Diaries again in the future when we're no longer stuck working from home due to COVID-19.

Glad y'all like the set!

I like the house and the caravan (too many mage outfits imho), the mount looks cool but with little to no flying it looks a bit overkill for me :smile:



This is not a Mage outfit. It's leather armor. =P

Also, you can use the skin on gliding mounts too. Not just flying mounts. <3
