What reveal or piece of news about Ashes of Creation was the biggest for you in 2022? The weather? Character creator? Tulnar? Something else?

Personally, if I have to pick one of them, it's probably the weather system. It looks and sounds stunning, and with all the detail we'll get, like changing creature looks (fur color, the leaves on the timeless terrapin, etc) it's going to bring the world alive in ways we rarely even see in single-player games. Add to that all the game mechanic changes it brings, and I think the weather system for me has been the best/most impactful reveal in 2022.

    The ocean being auto-flag PvP..

    I like the weather in Valheim more.

    Probably the character creator. I typically use a lot of default settings in games, but this CC might change that.

    Constant PvP on open ocean is huge. I had been talking about implementing it for awhile on here and it happened!!!

    The weather mechanics is a close 2nd. But right there with it is the world size increase.

    I think it's probably the weather system as well. The whole node policy system seems very interesting too.

    Must be because I'm just waking up. I read this like being able to block other people's characters and my initial reaction was, "Oh. Yeah. Thank god for that."

    PvP on the Open Seas is the most significant.
    My favorite was the UE5 Character Creator. It includes about 90% of what I was hoping for.

    Perhaps biggest non-news is that Alpha 2 will not happen before 2023.
