We shall be victorius!!!
I'm a passionate 55-year-old YouTuber in search of the perfect game that truly captures my attention! Throughout my gaming journey, I've explored various titles, but most lose their allure after a week.
The quest for the game that fills me with excitement continues, and I'm thrilled to discover new experiences with all of you.
¡Soy un apasionado Youtuber de 55 años en busca del juego perfecto que realmente capte mi atención! A lo largo de mi trayectoria, he experimentado con diversos títulos, pero la mayoría pierden su encanto después de una semana.
La búsqueda del juego que me llene de emoción continúa y estoy emocionado por descubrir nuevas experiencias con todos ustedes.
I have been lurking here for years.
Thought it was time to make an account and stuff.
I first started playing MMORPG when EQ2 launched. I loved the housing, crafting, and game play...then it changed I struggled through it, left...returned..repeat. I played Tera...loved the action, was great until you hit level 60, then the community went to...not carrying about each other at all!...I played Archage, but the Tetris feel didn't sit well with me (more into RPG). I recently tried BDO...pretty...but just haven't found a community.
I was leaning to ...I guess F2P just took over, and about to give up...then with a little research - heard about this game. WOW!! I have been in the process of watching all of the youtube videos from start to finish on AoC youtube site. This looks amazing! Everything I was really loving all in one game! I can craft..not just click one button, but really craft! I can house and design my personal touch to it! I can PVP or PVE equally as I want!! I haven't Played the Apoc at all, so I will look that up and get a feel for where it is now...
But I wanted to say HI!!
I will be playing this game with my lovely wife, and 3 kids. My teenage daughter..she is really into blackops/fortnight/ first person shooters...it has been hard to get her interested in RPG MMOs...but when she saw a video of some gameplay fights in Apoc...her eyes opened wide! LOL. Look out guys, she is very very good. (Blackops she often can get a KD of 35-1 or better) I need to hire her as my caravan guard captain lol.
Anyway, sorry long winded. Love the game outlook, I am sad I missed the pre-order time. . Hopefully something will come along that will allow me to play BETA or A2.

I'm an ancient Aussie whose first gaming experience (after watching big brother's D&D sessions) was Pool Of Radiance on a Commodore 64, both of which are now kept in museums. Yep, I'm that old. I should be in one too.
I then followed the Forgotten Realms path with games like Baldur's Gate, Icewind Dale, Neverwinter etc. NOT even online versions. Then DAO, Pillars then fell into the Evony/ ROK trap. In hindsight, and at the time, p2w timewasting. Life and remote work kept me from the bigger MMOs.
From memory, I heard about AoC on a 'upcoming great games' type YT vid. Since have watched every stream a gazillion times over thinking this may be the Holy Grail. And shouting at Steven to have a drink of water. I defo would have kickstarted if I had heard in time but I've donated to Extra Life instead and that's a great cause.
Like many I want to do it all - explore, fight, craft, build and then do it all some more. Discovery is my drug. I love that first feeling of a game that's yet to be unwrapped. Also like many, I'll be getting a new PC setup/desk/house for the game. You know the hype is real when folks get PCs specially for new games, not the other way around.
So, call me Rex. I wish all other Verrans well and good health - for now. I'll be in OCE guild Amnesty. Don't let the name fool ya.
Happy waiting, folks.

I was never into PVP games but only because a few of them made sense to me and had no clever system to deal with gameplay around PVP, particularly players going bad, it was mostly pointless bashing and ganging up on others... Even in medieval times if you murdered someone you were most likely to end up hanging from the tree, there are consequences in this life for what you do... and if the game did not address that properly then it lucked imagination in my opinion, and was not for me ... I was never against players having the option to kill others or looting, as I was concerned you were welcome to go on a killing spree I just wanted some consequences, I mean serious consequences and system to address these actions properly, either in a form that that player has a bounty on his head or can't trade in towns because of being wanted as an outlaw and city guards will try to kill him and so on ... AOC seems to give more substance to PVP than any game beforehand, and because of that, I am all up for it ...
I'm no stranger to MMO's, I started with World of Warcraft and enjoyed it quite a bit in the 'good old days'. I then started to lose interest for various reasons as too much about the game changed and familiar faces took their leave. I drifted around trying many of the other MMO's that launched in subsequent years.
I enjoyed Wildstar quite a bit though that ended up shutting down. I liked Final Fantasy XIV initially but...well, I'm sure anyone who has seen the game's following on social media is well aware of how chaotic the community there can be. I am currently using the Elder Scrolls Online to get my MMO fix.
Overall, what interests me the most about Ashes of Creation is that it is setting out to be an actual game and one that is set to encourage a lot of interaction between players. I'm a jack-of-all-trades kind of guy, so I try to at least dabble in every aspect of a game I pick up to play.
