Hallo from two sides of the planet!

Heya from both Canada and Japan!

My brother and I have thrown in as brave participants of this fancy new world. We've gamed together for nearly 30 years (yep, since the very early 80's) in pretty much every genre, and continue to do so even though I've moved to the other side of the planet (Japan). MMORPGs were what really took us in (and RPGs before that). I'm a crafter/builder type of player (and typically a rogue or ranged player) but I do like some solid PvP/RvR. He's a lethal PvP/RvRer with a long history of DAoC warfare under his belt (typically a caster or rogue) and we often play tandem. We're both looking forward to gaming with this new community, and hopefully (and by the looks and sounds of it so far,) it will be the much awaited next step in MMORPG evolutions from UO to EQ and now this. May it stand the test of time and may many of us still speak fondly of "the KickStarter Days!" in the distant future.

Until then~!

    Lots of fun and POSITIVE people here!  
  • That's pretty cool!  Games are becoming a family affair in my family too.  It's a lot of fun!

  • *bows low in welcoming greeting to @Tankenka*
    welcome! 
    both of you :)
  • Welcome to the Ashes forums!!  
    Sounds like you and your brother are a complimentary pair, especially in the way PvP/PvE and crafting are aimed to be tied together.  Here's hoping it brings you both great success!
  • Welcome to the community!
  • *throws confetti* Super excited about this game, yep. And the community (not just from these posts, but overall) seems to be more akin to what I remember from the early EQ days. I still have friends from that game IRL! (and a pair of them are now married with two sparkling rugrats!)

    Definitely gaming is becoming a family thing! And I'm always happy to add more people to my extended family of friends :) (The beauty of games is... as an introvert, one can still socialize!)

    My discord is: Tankenka#2964 and I am online a fair bit (at least, when I am not flattened by work!)

    Anyone who wants to hit us up in game, do feel free!

    Welcome @Tankenka! No need for three guesses as to which class you're going to play! Cleric,right? :)
  • Welcome, fellow traveler! I'd love to meet the two of you in the middle of the battlefield, fighting shoulder to shoulder. It would be an amazing scene to watch.

    Feel free to ask for any question about AoC!

    Ironically, in EQ, the Cleric was the one class that I excelled at! But, strangely, when I PVP, I play ranged, or up-close and dirty (preferably dual-wield, with lots of utility). However, I'm not writing off a healer class! Definitely gunna try it out! Might just be my bag if they have utility and can sport some decent armour and battle mechanics!

    Once we get our footing, let's hope so! In DAoC our RR10s were beast combos! TWIF3 FTW! I played a bone-dancer while my brother alternated between one of his casters or a stealther. Good times!

    We're more than happy to get pasted on the field as well. The very BEST way to learn is by being righteously schooled! So here's hoping we're given a proper run for our money more often than not!
  • Welcome to the Ashes World @Tankenka!!!! 
  • Welcome welcome guys to the community ;)
  • Hello @Tankenka o/ and welcome to the community smile
  • Welcome @Tankenka, to you and your brother!

    I, like you, am a long time gamer (and introvert) who enjoys the ability to socialize in games.  I've also lived in Japan (twice, for a total of 8 years).  I am very jealous that you're there and I wish I had an opportunity to live there again.  For the nonce, I am content to visit our local Japanese market/cafe every week for my Japan fix.  :)
  • Welcome! Excellent post! I know what you mean, the community here definitely has a different feel to it than others, and that's a huge part of what's attracted me to this particular game. Happy to have you among us. :) 
  • Welcome!

      Well, here's hoping you find continued enjoyment through the gaming community for years and decades to come! Some of my best memories of gaming come from my teenage years. Many of those people are still my friends to this day. So - I look forward to getin' schooled by the new blood! See ya in there :)
  • May it stand the test of time indeed. Welcome to the community. :)
