I want to share this content creator video because he couldnt have said it better, sums pretty much it, i agree.
Yeah, it's truly sad that we ended up here, but hopefully they have some of the necessary fixes in the pipeline.
People have told them almost all the potential ones so we can't do much except wait for them to implement something.
As usual, Intrepid, from my group the sentiment is that we would, even with our dislike of your combat, still jump in to PvP for stuff in Ashes, if literally any of your PvP incentives were worth it to a smaller group/guild.
As it is though, everything is 'following the predicted path' too much, so it's hard to even muster the will to 'test to see if we like it'. That's unfair to you, sure, but I mention it moreso to point out that the barrier to engagement isn't 'we have talked ourselves out of ever trying', we'd still go, if you added any of the things.
I find the combat fine my issue isnt exactly the combat but actually the camera, not a fan of free camera at all nor i like the option to have camera locked behind character/change direction be RMB since i like to use/bind RMB for other stuff like cancel action (also dont like/use action mode in an mmo), regarding combat i would like to see more cc break skills options (for all the classes) than just a single one and the casting duration or cooldown of some skills being tweaked as well; i mean there is also the issue with lack of mana resources.
I want to PvP. But I can’t.
I thought we were supposed to be able to fight over grind spots, but if I attack I go corrupt. So we can not fight we just passive aggressive mob steal. Lame. I thought I could fight over someone stealing my ashes but they drop pvp flag while running away as i’m attacking them leaving me flagged and a free kill for the roaming lvl 25. Lame.
The only pvp in this game is leveraging the systems in situations that favor you.
It’s literally the DEI of PvP fighting to get Human Resources on your side and avoid any fairness.
