Thinking that "being social" is an occupation. It's not. It's a natural state of being. The game and community will amaze you, Im sure.

You have a personal view of crafting that goes wholly against the game's view. You are gonna have a real hard time to level all them to max. Near impossible. You will give up before you do so, because it is pointless. It will however be much easier for you to walk up to a player built stall and buy gear. Moreover, I refuse to believe you are too socially inept to type in /say "Hey, mind if I join?" and then press accept on your screen when you walk past a open world dungeon in progress.

You can raise multiple alt chars on one account if you have the time anyway to do all or most of the professions btw. I just don't know how many alts are possible for release. - Those clowns to pay are your "friends" you gonna play with... or rather foes if you call them clowns... -> Try to be friendly, yes that's possible in a game... on the internet... these days... - Outler? -> No the majority of the MMORPG players think or play that way because companies formed us into the most unreliable, instant gratification, brainless, unsocial, single players ever... Ashes will fix that and if you can't be fixed it's not really my problem as a clown I will laugh for days over hilarious jokes like this. - So no Twitch Streamer is social... -> The world doesn't split into content creators and consumers if that is what you try to tell me here... wtf, delusional syndromes anyone? I like me some Dark Flame Master! xDhttps://c.tenor.com/xPBkRUze-PoAAAAd/tenor.gif ( Small Rika is stupid and cute tho, the perfect mix... °_^ )https://c.tenor.com/3tRm-m6dyJoAAAAd/tenor.gif - Forever alone, when not being the lead player of anything?! -> Here's my tip. Since you seem like an introverted person, don't fool yourself you have to be an extrovert. Do your own stuff at your own pace and everything will fit together perfectly for you IN TIME! Don't rush stuff you are not capable of (for now if it really is what you want to do, but it's impossible anyway with that mindset, no one will follow you if you've already given up on being social, harsh but real) You can't name Ashes Of Creation and New World together in one sentence and hope it makes sense... This game is not and never will be out of pre-alpha... nanfoodle wrote: » I would push and get player support for more masters on one char. I could see in time IS adding more. Nope, not without diminishing returns. They would rather only make one artisan class able to achieve the grandmaster's mastery than the other way around. If you can do everything, you need no one and the world will be empty once everything has been done... Meaningful choices, social dependency, scarcity of materials, and gear that breaks over time build up cycles of gameplay for us. Rivalry and friction because we can't get everything isn't something to fear... it's content. End note: If the most important pillar of AoC's game design "social interaction and dependency" isn't your cup of tea then this isn't a game for you. You can play solo and try to hardcore your way through the game, but you will probably miss out even more if you do so and diminish your overall experience before you leave the game cursing over not being fed 100% catered content by Intrepid.
