    Eh just seems like a lazy to cut corners and copy paste an old system because the devs aren't creative enough to come up with something novel unless it has to do with marketing ploys. If they actually were trying to revitalize the mmo genre they would be innovating with one the most important features.

    To me it seems better to take something known to work, make it a tad better, and make a world worth using it in.

    Innovating might sound good on paper, but when players figure out how to break your innovation... the entire game takes a hit.

    The dead do not squabble as this land’s rulers do. The dead have no desires, petty jealousies or ambitions. A world of the dead is a world at peace

    That's like wow.

    The only way that's like wow is that it is an mmorpg and you can fight other players.

    The only way it isnt like wow is that instead of corrupted, the other side is named horde

    To say horde is "evil" would be wholly inaccurate. They are a complicated alliance of neglected races and cultures who just want a stake in their world. Also my corruption faction idea is opt-in, you can choose to be a corrupted player at any time.

    They are fundamentally a faction of barbarians who only purpose is to start wars and kill as many people who originate in the land they stole as possible. There is nothing not evil about the horde aside from the fact that they are pussies compared to the scourge and original horde.

    Are you allowed to attack and kill any player, anywhere in the game (aside from vendor stalls) in wow? No matter where you go, every player around you can potentially attack you at will. The game consequences are likely to be minor for the first few kills as well.

    I guess your trying to say Ashes gameplay is like the wow fantasy storyline even though the actual gameplay choice to fight is not even remotely close to wow.

    Naw someone was talking about WoW so I merely threw a fact at them. As it's pretty widely established that the overall horde faction is meant to be evil. They just aren't meant to be the most evil. The orc standards of living are just really evil for anyone to live in. The Alliance aren't always in the moral high ground, but what humans stand for as leaders of the Alliance are the best way to coexist with all of the races in the world. While the Horde actively choose ways to not coexist whenever a choice is possible.

    It actually had nothing to do with Ashes at all. xD

    Though there are a few overlaps with the scourge in WoW and the Corruption in Ashes.

    Just because I oppose an idea doesn't mean I'm necessarily on the opposite side of that idea.
