Re: A2 as a story arc (roleplay for testers)
I was thinking something like this - similar to APOC, but....
I think there will be too many disconnects to really make it into official lore.

Re: A2 as a story arc (roleplay for testers)
During the last live (16/08/2024), Steven said something like "you are the first to return to Verra and are slowly discovering the world", referring to the entire process of expanding the world and content that will take place during A2 . So why not actually turn this into our first major narrative arc?
One way to engage the community and make these testing stages more exciting (especially the initial ones) would be to actually make this moment a canonical event in Verra's history, with global announcements that it was in fact a story arc like "the first expedition "
As the map and content expands, these events would be announced globally in the game, or even mediated by a small quest or narrative to introduce this new achievement / discovery of the adventurers. Continuing in this way until culminating in the official launch of the game and the reward of a unique title for the players who participated in this stage.
I understand that the real purpose of A2 is to be a test environment, a true alpha, but having this moment immortalized in a unique narrative in the game's official lore would be incredible.
i love this idea!
Re: A2 as a story arc (roleplay for testers)
Cool idea to have some storybook and narrative written about the First Expedition. Great way to expand the IP and get some lore. Written around the players themself, and the challenges overcome.
Even adding some flavor like origination on Sanctus. We're you a holy man selected from the clergy to return? Or plucked from your prison cell, death sentence commuted, to join a group of treasure hunters to Verra? Political patron of a wealthy lord sent to survey new lands to settle?
The first portal opened was to Riverlands. And the First Expedition was sent through. What did they find?

Will there be other seasons than the classic spring, summer, autumn, winter as for example raining season, sandstorm, etc or even some events with tsunamis, thunders, cyclones, etc?

Would bosses like Firebrand provide exclusive mats to players who take the Hunting profession?

Will there be any game mechanics related to being in or out of combat, such as being able to mount up?

We know that the animal husbandry system will follow the mendelian inheritance from the Feb 2022 Livestream, could you elaborate on the number of gamete pairs the Pets, Mounts, Livestocks and Beasts of Burden will have?
i.e. what ratios of phenotypes among offspring would results from animal husbandry. (3:1 or 9:3:3:1 etc)
