There are some people here at Intrepid Studios who are also very into and interested in 3D printing! Maybe the marketing team should go talk to them about it ;)

These ended up amazing, both male and female look the part.

Curious if this is a "dwarf females can have beards" kind of world or not so much?



The female Dünir can have beards :)

Phoochie

The Niküa race seems to resemble the Dünir race based on height and body shape however they do have a more tribal look to them which leaves me wondering what their background would be based on game Lore.
Not sure if there is some relation to the two races and later on took separate paths and evolved with slight differences.



Good observation :) This is essentially exactly the case. Both races are Dwarves. Specifically, they're Dünzenkell Dwarves. You can read more about them here, on the wiki :)

Steven and the team's vision is all about risk and reward and the symbiosis of the two. With the nature of open world PvP and a majority of non-instanced dungeon and raid fights, PvP in direct correlation to boss fights, quest objectives and other desirable objectives is unavoidable!

However, that doesn't mean you need to directly fight a war for a chance to kill a monster to complete a quest. For example, perhaps you're a crafter for your guild and instead of fighting in a guild war, you choose to spend your time and energy supplying your guild for a battle.

If they win the battle, you win! And you'd get your chance at that quest objective without fighting the front lines of a PvP war, if that is what pleases you. The opportunities are endless and the possibilities are many! :)

I'll just drop this statement here - which ofc applies to AI and all things regarding the dev process in and out of the game:
Our team is always looking into the latest technology to see what would make sense for us to implement in-game!

I'm sure the team is looking at how best to program creature AI, what makes sense, what is possible, etc :)

"If there is anything that this horrible tragedy can teach us, it's that a male model's life is a precious, precious commodity. Just because we have chiseled abs and stunning features, it doesn't mean that we too can't not die in a freak gasoline fight potion launcher accident."

Please Intrepid, make a Dragon themed Medieval Knight or Hooded Rogue Set haha, mainly black with green highlights hahaha. Would buy it in heartbeat haha. I'm hoping the Vek's relationship with dragon styled buildings gets a really badass set haha.



Who knows what the art team will cook up in the future \o/

I totally feel you on the dragon aesthetic! Personally I love the rich diversity in the art, lore and cosmetics the team has been coming up on <3

Really good and constructive discussing happening here. I value the wide range of opinions and thoughts.

Seriously though, the move to UE5 is so awesome and exciting. I'm just as hyped as you are! It should make the development process much smoother, allowing them to more easily accomplish what Steven and everyone at Intrepid have set out to!

If I understand what you're discussing here - Guilds can always ally with one another! There is nothing stopping smaller guilds to ally with larger ones for a competitive advantage :J

I'm curious to see what the Tulnar lore is, and if this would be supported by lore or not! Tulnar are a very unique race with rich and deep lore, I wonder if something like this could make sense and work :O unique idea, for sure!

We can think bigger. Maybe the Moon or Mars? I'll run it by the boss and see what he thinks.

Thank you for teaching me over the last 6 months. I wouldn't have made it this far without your help and awesome teamwork! You're amazing and you will be missed. I'm very excited for what the future has in store for you, I wish you the best and I look forward to our adventures in Verra :)

Glorious Ashes community - it's time for another Dev Discussion! Dev Discussion topics are kind of like a "reverse Q&A" - rather than you asking us questions about Ashes of Creation, we want to ask YOU what your thoughts are.

Our design team has compiled a list of burning questions we'd love to get your feedback on regarding gameplay, your past MMO experiences, and more. Join in on the Dev Discussion and share what makes gaming special to you!

Dev Discussion - Griefing
What do you consider acceptable behavior in an MMO or PvP-based situation, and where do you draw the line at “griefing”?

Keep an eye out for our next Dev Discussion topic regarding RNG!

Leyline Orrery - What Freehold building does this fit onto? Is it for a Scholar building? It looks large. Will this take up most of a Freehold? When will the staff decide on which buildings go on which item? We've been waiting for years for an answer. Can you at least tell us if this will Not be able to be used as a house cosmetic? I think many might be buying cosmetics that they will not be able to use when the actual purpose is finally revealed. Love the designs, love the talented staff but: If we are a Glorious Ashes Community, then don't we deserve some clarity? @MargaretKrohn @Vaknar



We're continuing to work with our design team to provide details on what type of freehold building each cosmetic would cover, for both past and future items!

Can you please change which skin you have on offer? Have no desire to look like Santa in an online game and that may very well be the only thing holding me back from buying.

Cheers!

Taylors Expansion

NFTs, and Tokens, are just two examples of using blockchain. They could have an internal blockchain, for instance, to manage all transactions. In the future, that could be leveraged for those other two.

Taylors



I believe when Margaret said this about NFTs, she meant all aspects of blockchain :)

It’s unwise, in a land that seems determined to keep its secrets, to rely solely upon the naked eye to seek your truths. To that end, the returning denizens of Verra have blended both ancient tradition and modern techniques to find new ways to peel back the pall of mystery that enshrouds their new home. What they see beyond can unlock and inspire possibilities that are, as of yet, unimaginable.

The Through the Lens cosmetic add-ons will be available in the Ashes of Creation shop from ... Read more
