0s do the Cyclops have names and is there
2s any meaning behind the names
5s they do have names but I can't pronounce
7s them
9s [Music]
10s [Applause]
15s uh welcome to forge and eternum the show
17s where we talk about all things new world
19s uh today I'm joined with uh Chad redwitz
22s our joined by actually Chad redwitz our
25s AI lead and Daniel Jacobs one of our
27s senior level designers uh lately we've
30s been having more World bosses and I've
32s really enjoyed them that we just
33s finished the winter convergence and
34s fighting that was awesome uh and I think
36s we're gonna be doing more of that DJ
38s you've got a a new uh World boss event
40s to tell us a little bit about so take it
42s away yeah yeah so I'm working on Legacy
45s of Crassus and the idea is that some of
50s crass is loyalists
52s um
53s are engaging in a plan to
57s invade the southern lands and so this is
60s a plan that was set forth long ago and
63s now they're finally engaging in this
66s plan and so uh players have to fight
69s back the invading Force that's pretty
71s cool so Crassus I'm assuming then we're
74s talking Brimstone enemies which
76s previously only been Brimstone now
78s they're coming into different parts of
80s the world is that what's happening yeah
82s yeah they're invading five zones in in
84s this in the southern areas
86s um and so yes it's exciting to see the
89s legion uh come and come into the
92s southern zones invading
94s um and you know players are going to be
98s um challenged in in multiple ways and
100s then
101s they're going to be excited for a new
105s loot Chad why don't you tell me what
106s sort of enemies are we going to be
107s fighting what's the composition is this
109s going to be hard easy yeah no uh hard to
112s begin with so definitely bring some
114s friends uh we're shooting for kind of
116s another large format event here so uh
120s shooting for you know 15 20 people to
122s come along and help out in the fight
125s um we're leaning heavily into our our
127s legionnaires
129s um so that includes uh in our
131s legionnaires sagittari
133s signifers uh the Cyclops
137s um they're all kind of making an
138s appearance either it's invading horde of
140s enemies uh coming in and and literally
143s staking or planting their flag in the uh
146s in the southern colonies and uh and
148s setting up shop invading so good time
151s and are there any figureheads to this
153s Invasion DJ like uh two special
156s centurions or anything
159s um yeah there's yeah there's a couple of
161s Cyclops and
163s um leading the charge the signifer and
165s and they're coming in to
168s to invade and to
171s and to make Crassus proud that's awesome
173s you mentioned a flag Chad does the flag
176s have any gameplay impacts like what's
178s this flag thing yeah yeah so uh uh we'll
181s leave a little bit there for players to
183s experience when they get in there but uh
185s you know the flags might be an element
187s of the fight
189s um but uh but yeah the players are
191s fighting back against uh them coming in
193s and literally planting these flags and
195s uh and uh yeah fighting him beating them
198s down and uh and taking back their land
201s uh DJ you mentioned rewards like these
204s events are only as interesting as the
206s rewards and I think uh we're doing
208s something a little different with the
209s rewards this time right can you tell us
211s a little bit about yeah yeah that's
212s right
213s um yeah for this event
215s um we're starting the concept of daily
216s rewards and so the the reward the zip
220s player will be getting from the event
221s players will only be able to get the
223s main rewards at least players will only
225s be able to get them once a day
227s um and so for players it'll be
229s interesting for them
231s to balance everything else they're doing
234s with coming back every day to uh to get
238s the rewards and I think it'll be I think
240s it'll be fun
242s um to see
243s how players engage with this one yeah I
245s think I think it's super interesting
246s because I noticed you know sort of at
248s the tail end of the winter convergence
250s it was harder to get fights for the
252s winter uh Yeti uh because people had
255s already gotten all the rewards with this
256s being daily uh there's a reason to go
258s back each day and fight it and on top of
260s the daily there's also a reoccurring
262s reward right it's not like the daily
263s rewards the big one but there's also a
265s reoccurring so like you might help your
267s buddies out once or twice but there'll
268s be a reason to come back uh every week
271s or every day sorry do the Cyclops have
273s names and is there any meaning behind
275s the names
277s perfect
288s we changed them
290s to
292s tie better into the Romans yeah and so
296s and so before we had we had names but
298s now now the names are uh centurions
301s Decimus and lucanus I'm now I understand
304s why you said I was afraid to pronounce
306s it I don't even I don't think I
307s pronounced them right but um
309s and signature nerva that soon cool yeah
314s um he says the great names for cyclops
317s and and that's and that's all he said
319s perfect name for Cyclops how about you
322s Chad any parts that you want to
323s highlight from this event uh I think the
326s uh the the part that I I find really fun
327s about this is that we're we're kind of
329s changing up uh the composition of
331s enemies in kind of the older zones and
333s making them feel a little more alive and
336s a little more interesting and this is uh
338s you know just the the start of these
339s kind of events I'm sure we'll do lots
340s more of them in the future
342s um and it just kind of changes up that
344s old world and it makes it feel a little
345s fresh well that is the perfect segue uh
349s first I want to thank you all for
350s joining us today we do have our
352s community question what Chad just said
353s is we're going to be doing more of these
354s and I think that's definitely the case
356s so the question is what would you like
358s to see us do for a world event uh these
361s are sort of limited time events that we
362s do to shake up the gameplay we're going
364s to start doing more of these uh so
366s please let us know uh thank you for
368s watching and please uh like And
