So mobile games, i know... its a tricky and very rarely done right thing! So let me explain before i get to the point 
I love being a part of a fandom universe, and usually i am all in with one for a long time and its usually games, i get invested and passionate about my games and the whole universe of them, but of course real life also exists and its the most important, unfortunately xD So as of right now the best mobile games for me surrounding MMO/RPG games are card games, if i am on the road or away from home its nice to still have a means of playing and immersing myself within my virtual universe for that needed fix
I don't know what kind of mobile game could be done with AoC and if something different than a card game would be better, but if you guys could see a mobile game for AoC(after the AoC has been FULLY released if it eases your mind to think about it) what would it be?

Two of the games I remember most from 1995 were Full Throttle and Phantasmagoria, though Myst from a few years earlier is probably the game most people associate with them in the '90's (and perhaps the game most people associate with the genre as a whole).
Adventure games aren't exactly a super engrossing genre in terms of gameplay. They have no combat, no stats, and anything you come across can be overcome simply by looking at a wiki. Due to this, the genre seems to have mostly died.
However, with all the drawbacks the genre has, it is still a solid medium for telling a story, and are also really good for hiding additional - and non-essential - details to reward observant players. I've not seen a single proper adventure game on mobile (though I've not looked), even though this is a platform that is well suited to it as it is inherently casual, can be picked up and put down at any time without issue, and could make use of the fact that most phones have better screens than most gaming computers (an odd fact).
These games are also fairly cheap to make, as most of the art involves static pictures. You could have a good adventure game with absolutely no animation - though there is no reason this has to be the case.
This type of game wouldn't be something that would bring new players in to the Ashes IP, but it could be a fantastic way of expanding that IP for the people that are already here.
I really hope they will do something great for the mobile platforms

I just recently tried Raid Shadow Legends, i thought it was more of a RPG game where you run around and stuff as i had it described wrong. But actually its pretty decent concept and i think a game of similar concept would complement the MMORPG game well

- World Tamer (run around catching animals...gotta catch em all), Fleet Commander (simplified naval RTS), Smithy (tap to forge weapons and armour)...the other question is whether mobile games would work with their marketing strategy to grow the lore into a franchise..
To be fair that mobile Thor looks more like how id imagine real Thor would look like

What's the bet that mobile Hulk has a misplaced sock.
That's probably one of the games referenced below. At least my guess anyways.
I just hope its not a pathfinders game with a ashes of creation skin.
That would be my guess lol
Where do you think this game came from? He has said that he started this project based on a tabletop RPG he developed the lore for. He even gave us a picture of his map.
All he would have to do is print his material.
First of all, no doubt the material would need some polish before being published.
Second, there have been changes made to the world map between the one he originally made, and the one that we were shown for the game. No doubt there would be other changes in there as well. In order to keep the lore of the world consistent between media, they would need to run a pass over basically everything in the RPG he had to make sure it still fits in.
I mean, a good amount of work is already done for it, but if they opt to publish this themselves, there would still be a lot of work left to go - and much of it won't be able to be undertaken until the MMO is in late alpha - as there is still a good chance of changes to the games lore up until that point.
I know Steven loves pathfinder but I hope for a new games system
Or original Warhammer Roleplay. With the stats, skills, and developing your character through the careers. Empire in Flames!
there are so many game systems its just a shame so many go for the D&D or PF route
The thing is that models like Midgard for example are overly complicated at times, while D&D is very beginner friendly.
(Midgard is the oldest german P&P, and has an extensive experience and hp system which makes it a bit tedious)
