What is Ashes of Creation? Ashes of Creation is a unique take on the MMO experience. Our world structure is dynamic and built to react to the actions of our players. Cities will rise and fall, their populations based on the history of the world as the players create it. Quests will unlock as these populations gather, their needs grow, and secrets are unlocked. As the world’s NPC structure is established in real time, players will have the ability to destroy what they’ve created, paving the way for new development, new populations, and real change. Political strife and intrigue will play a very real role in the structure of your world.

First
All of the ashes creators are talking about this terribly unprofessional article. But that's why these exists. People don't talk about professional articles nearly as much. It's the same reason the news sucks now. I think we shouldn't be giving these articles so much attention. Just wanted to give my quick opinion on that. Love the content though guys, keep up the podcasts!
@jamie: The basic attacks have freeze or the stop that you see, might be related to the type of weapon, for example, Steven is wielding Heavy great sword, so to show distinction between a light weapon like one handed dagger vs Greatsword, they need to show the range of depth or heaviness with each weapon.
Remember in basic weapons stream, the Dev mentioned that dagger attacks will be super fast as it a light weapon and great sword being one of the heaviest weapon you will see the amount of effort a character models exerts to hit an enemy.
So that is my best guess that they are trying to do, if you keep it super fluid with Greatsword 🗡 , it will feel floaty. Also if you see Steven doing basic attacks in this stream in free Air, you don't see that freeze frame stuff. Only when he was attacking the tank, you see the freeze or clunkiness emphasized when the Greatsword hits the tank. So I think they are trying to emphasize impact. I understand what you are saying but if he does what you are suggesting with a Greatsword, we won't see any difference between normal sword and Greatsword animations wise. Animations wise, this fighter looks very fast for wielding a HEAVY ass GREATSWORD.
Just an alternative perspective. – Hrykaan.
Also good job on the timestamps and text around it, I was going to ask you if you are using an AI app to do the timestamps😃
Green Grit, may be the form augment version of tank same as the Green Form of Fighter(Form of Celerity) which is Anti CC/Tenacity. Or may be they just reworked Grit colors 🙂
Thanks again guys for the key 🔑 🙏 was a great suspense filled episode and a big shout out the the Aussie crew from The Casual Conspiracy for coming together to win it for one of our guys who missed out on grabbing one originally ❤
Good show!.
Just don't click on anything from Massively
OP and don't follow their crap. Don't give them the attention they desperately crave.
