    To me, some marks of a great story is that it is profound, insightful, thought provoking, and can cause conflicting emotions, through experiencing new perspectives and context that make me question my own real-world beliefs and understandings. For example, I think that concepts such as philosophy, morality, psychology, and poetry can help craft these kinds of stories. Without spoiling anything, are you able to say if these types of things will be heavily explored themes in Ashes' story and gameplay?

    Are there any differences in how clerics function in the different racial societies? Does a cleric's choice in patron deity change how they play in game? Could we get a lore drop on cultures and how the classes/archetypes functioned in Sanctus?

    Will Ashes of Creation feature a World of warcraft style old school Armory feature where we can look up certain characters/Players?

    How does Ashes of Creation plan to differentiate its fishing system from typical MMO implementations, and what unique challenges or opportunities does this present in terms of player engagement, progression, and satisfaction

    How will Ashes of Creation effectively address the challenge of sustaining an engaging player experience
    when one or multiple servers experience a significant decrease in population density, thereby impacting
    the core gameloop's functionality, especially when server merging is unfeasible due to the constraints
    of a dynamic server node system?
  • s1zzl1ns1zzl1n Member, Alpha Two
    At the start of Alpha 2, to what extent do you plan on allowing players to test the augment system at launch and how much of that progression will be available throughout the entirety of the Alpha 2 testing period?

    Will players get a chance to view a dual archetype class such as Battlemage or some other type of combo before the launch of alpha 2?

    What is the goal for housing numbers for a village stage node? I believe the previous numbers were around 8 in-node houses and 50 apartments, but that has been said to be outdated.

    Will the corruption system be active during the launch of Alpha 2? Also, if I cut down and drop trees on my friends does that count towards the corruption system? - A guy who thinks friendly fire is funny.

    Are Economic nodes and In node marketplaces still planned to be available at the launch of alpha 2, and therefore, do players have access to the personal shops and Player Stalls feature for testing?

    15 months ago, Intrepid revealed some concept art for the Redwood Forest and that the studio was beginning to do work on that biome. Can you provide a big picture update on the studio's progress with the Redwood Forest?

    Hey devs, thanks for all you do.

    Is the intention to have raid like encounters where there are multiple bosses, or more like a set of world bosses? Sorry if you've covered this, I'm a bit PvE lover as well as PvP.

    AoC's Node System is exciting. Unlocking new dungeons, mobs, quests, and other mysteries is a compelling feature to add to the MMORPG landscape. I foresee gear that is unlocked by the metropolis node to be the most powerful. I also foresee that this gear could potentially trivialize the lower-level node progression because of the inevitable gear score-to-content level difference. Is there something in place to ensure the players don't faceroll lower-mid level node content? Or if you don't see this as a potential issue, what am I missing?

    What are the Benefits to In-Node Mansions. We know freeholds have a lot of benefits, especially regarding boosting the processing branch of the artisan system. But what are the benefits to owning one of the few In-Node Mansions at the Metropolis stage of a node?
  • BarabBarab Member, Alpha One, Alpha Two, Early Alpha Two
    Will the corruption pvp system be enabled at the start of alpha 2 ?

    When a node is destroyed, does the world state revert back to reflect this ( story arcs reset back to node level 1, gained access to points of interest is denied etc ) ?

    Could we get a list of systems, races, archetypes, node levels that will be there for the launch of Alpha 2 ?

    Will Fighters, or any melee capable of both Tank and DPS builds, be able to transition between DPS and Tanking so they can group or Solo more effectively? I understand that different archtype combos will have different effectiveness for each, but it would be nice to know if playing a melee (or anything for that matter) will have some versatility in their playstyle options. Thanks.

    1. Can guilds establish independent shops with unique names, allowing guild members to act as merchants without freeholds?

    I just have a simple question.
    How friendly will Ashes of Creation be to people new to MMORPGs, such as myself?
  • LivuLivu Member, Alpha Two
    Will players need multiple mounts on their skill bar for various purposes like immunity, gliding, combat, and escaping, or will the gameplay be more focused on using just one mount?
