My two cents is that having all of that specific information is just not very useful ... right now.
Unless those stats and systems are specifically what is being tested, there is no need to make it fully transparent. The numbers and relationships between those numbers are not just something that could change; they are something that will change. Even if there ends up being any form of transparency, I'd much rather have it in Beta.

Native Linux support may be possible in future.

Re: Linux Support For Alpha2 (and possibly launch)
i really hope the anticheat is compatible with proton. if its EAC, just tick the box please. its so difficult to find a proper answer on these forums when searching as each post is full of clueless linux haters derailing the conversation.

Re: Bard Gambit should do Mana swap not HP
I agree and I don't. I think it should be an augment that changes it from hp to mana.
Augment or skill path—I totally agree. It shouldn't be the default, and this approach would create more build diversity. Additionally, when facing a Bard in PvP, you'd need to account for the possibility of both, which would greatly increase the skill ceiling.

Re: What Would Your Dream Festival in Ashes of Creation Look Like?
Festivals should happen after successfully surviving a siege and rebuilding defenses to a certain degree. Also during rl Christmas.
Drinks should make characters feel drunk a bit longer than usually.
NPCs should celebrate too.
I really like the idea of festivals being tied to significant in-game events, like surviving a siege and rebuilding the defenses. It would give the celebrations a deeper meaning, serving as a well-earned reward for players' efforts and resilience. And having NPCs join in on the festivities would make the world feel more alive and dynamic, really driving home the idea that everyone—players and NPCs alike—is part of the community.
This would create a festival experience that’s not only fun but also rooted in the game’s lore and player achievements. Thanks for sharing such a thoughtful idea!

Re: Disable Transmog/Cosmetics

I had already suggested this back then at another time, right ? It should indeed be an Option if some People are so inclined to have it. Make it so that People - (who have most likely not bought any Pre-Order Cosmetics) - can decide for themself if they want to be able to "see" the Comsetics of other Players.
Then we will have most likely salty Topics like " Look here !! Dygz's/Hinotories/Aszkalons/etc.'s true Looks of their Characters " or so : when they make Screenshots of whatever Cosmetics our Characters wore at the time being deactivated.
Because i have truly the impression of these slightly bitter and salty Vibes here. No Gen-Z-pun intended. Maybe if that Option would be withheld, it should be withheld only so to increase the butthurt more of everyone who would hate to see Cosmetics on someone else.

Re: Disable Transmog/Cosmetics
Does anyone know how apperance/cosmetics are gonna work atm? Like can a mage wearing cloth have heavy armor as apperance? If so then I agree with OP 100%
If not then I think it's fine. I just want the build and class to somewhat match the apperance, atleast with armor type. If someone wants to transmog their gear to lvl 1 cloth on a lvl 50 mage it's all good. I still know it's a lvl 50 mage i'm fighting.
I think it's a good part of the game that you can appear weak when you are strong. It adds an extra layer of mindgames and roleplay.
I do not like the idea of some people seeing version A and others see version B.

Ashes has a complicated cosmetic system.
People who use costumes will be able to look like whatever gear the costume is from level 1. The plate outfit I posted earlier can be used by a rogue or a mage at level 1. Costumes can't be mix and matched though... it's the whole costume or it's nothing.
Then there's also appearance slots. Where you can stick items into the appearance slot of another item and it will change to look like that item. AKA transmog. And you'll have to earn both items for that.

Re: Linux Support For Alpha2 (and possibly launch)
It would be a massive mistake from Intrepid now and in the future to block steam deck users and linux gamers from enjoying an mmo like this because of poor anticheat implementation.
Several links in this thread point to Steven acknowledging the less than 1% of players that are using Linux.
Would this really be a “massive mistake”?
