"Steven plans for Ashes to not have numerical values on health bars." I heard this on the forums.
Is this true and if so then what does this mean for Ashes. How will it look?
how will it feel?
What will be the cues for health & mana if we don't have numbers?
Why do you prefer this design path as opposed to the numerical path - pros and cons?
Can you think of a way this relates to the game having no DPS meter and of ways this relates to the game if it has a DPS meter?

Raise a new thread for this, I don't think this is on topic with this discussion.

You can also ask this question in the thread to post questions you want answered in the upcoming live stream.

Alpha 2 release date, lol

Other than Alpha 2 date, i would love to see more spell/fighting mechanics. We've seen a lot of wand attacking, would love to see staff, bow etc.

Some of the UI, support screen graphic layouts/development direction/theme

I'm less concerned about an Alpha 2 announcement, mainly because I don't think they are remotely close to publishing a date they can hit - which at this point they have to hit specific dates they throw out there.

I really want to see marked progress on:

a decision and smooth demonstration of the combat system
a dynamic, functioning node system
additional archetypes

I don't want to see a single mount.

Artisan class details

1) Intrepid employees taking Steven back to the pvp dunk tank with a new combat demo.

2) Character Creator that shows some more sinister looking model options.

3) UE5 demo of something we saw previously being updated into UE5 graphics with a before and after showcase.

4) Seafaring/Naval demo.

5) Elaboration/depth into class archetypes.

Which is kinda frightening if you think about it.

What can be done on a major component like the character creator in a week that's going to make THAT big of an impact to it? Any component to the character creator that makes it not presentable might need weeks or months to fix.

Let's hope it's just Steven's perfectionism

Personally, I was resigned to seeing the character creator in April or May once they missed presenting it back in February. For this specific situation though, I think they can be given the benefit of the doubt. They typically do their dev updates on the last friday of every month. For March/April of 2022, the way the dates work out, that means they would be giving 3 weeks of prep to March and 5 weeks to April. The date change means that's shifted to 4 weeks to each.

Perhaps that should've been planned for. Maybe they didn't even delay it for the character creator. I don't think it's worth thinking too hard about. It's just a reminder that Intrepid Studios historically over-promises when it comes to delivery dates.

1- Character creation
2- A caravan in effect, even if just for a short distance between nodes
3- Duels showing new talents on the spell bar
4- Someone becoming corrupted and the bounty system being activated
5- Alpha 2 timeframe... even something vague like this summer... or end of year around the holidays...
