Hi there friend! The design process for these fortresses hasn't kicked off quite yet, so no worries about missing out! We'll be keeping all relevant backers posted via email on all the details they need to know on when and how to redeem that perk, including any relevant design considerations or limitations.

I'm going to go ahead and close this thread out now, but please don't hesitate to reach back out if we can be of any further assistance!

Hi there friend! As noted above, the cosmetics available in our Pre-Order Packs change on a monthly basis, and we always let you know the start and end dates for when they'll be available both in the articles on our website and on our official Discord!

I'm going to go ahead and move this thread on over to our Support & FAQ section and close it out, but please don't hesitate to reach back out if there's anything else we can assist with!

Hiya! While I couldn't find any specific references for where we've noted that jewelry would be visible before (as compared to stuff on your back/belt), we have indeed shared cosmetics for jewelry items (specifically rings) in previous months! As I'm not sure we've clarified whether those would be replacing the appearance of your existing visible jewelry or just making them appear generally, I might recommend sharing a version of this question...

Hiya friend - seems like folks above already got you lots of helpful answers! As noted, the cosmetic items in the current Pre-Order Packs rotate on a monthly basis, and they are never available again once they're gone. Purchasing a Pre-Order Pack will enable you to see the relevant add-ons in future months, if you'd like to grab them on an individual basis!

In addition, the work that goes into creating these items is definitely not "thrown away" - the pets and mounts you see will have variants in-game as NPCs for you to fight/befriend, the costumes/accessories can be repurposed as NPC armor, the freeholds can take on a different appearance to fill out towns, and more - think of these cosmetics as variants for things we would need to make to bring the world of Verra to life either way!

In terms of "similar aesthetics" being available in the future, I would definitely recommend keeping an eye out for both future cosmetic sets that might suit your tastes better, or see ... Read more

Hiya! Looks like some helpful folks above already shared a few great references for where we've discussed our philosophy around the subscription model before - from previous interviews with Steven to ... Read more

Hi there! It seems you may have missed a few things that the Founder Pack includes - for example, since it includes all the rewards from the packs underneath it as well, you also get things like a name reservation, several additional cosmetics (mounts/freehold/costume/pet), additional character customization options, and more. In addition, all Kickstarter backers will receive the backer-only rewards that were included and un... Read more

Hi there! As noted above, the footage you've been seeing recently from our Alpha One Preview testing is an early iteration of our hybrid combat, while Apocalypse contained only action combat mechanics. Based on that, the "final product" will be more similar and a more refined version of our more recent videos!

Hi there friend! A character will only be able to be a member of a single guild, as noted here on the helpful community-run wiki.

In terms of selling items, markets and economies in Ashes of Creation are generally meant to be more local/regional in nature, to help encourage player interaction and exploration.

I'm going to go ... Read more
