After enough hours playing, i can say intrepid has something special on their hands. With a lot of love, they can forge this uncut stone into a shining jewel. It has me inviting people at random to group up, and is creating some organic social experiences. All the systems need a lot of work, but when this thing is polished, if they can keep that social aspect, this can really be something worth dumping your time into again.
The voting takes place in an hour. but the results might take a week or so to count the later votes that happen to apea… I mean show up late do to caravans being attacked.
The node system is the heart of this game. If it fails, the game will fail. Nobody who is interested in this game is playing it for the PvE, so using most of the dev resources to attract that playerbase will doom the game like many games before. I'm not saying PvE focused games are bad. They need to be built from the ground up with PvE in mind. AoC is not that type of game even though it has some PvE in it. I hope the decision makers realize this and don't fall into the New World and Crow Fall trap. Focus on the games strength (the node system) and success will come as long as it works properly.
Once the Riverlands are content complete, this will be a decent alpha to experience. Also I kinda hope they add VOIP. Social MMOs are just much better with VOIP.
It almost sounds like a node ends up acting partly like a guild where the guild leader is the mayor.
Though I thought I heard there is actually a guild system also.
Very interesting dynamics will be created out of this system. Though after a while I could see primary nodes ending up being dominant and things not changes as much unless they introduce reasons for primary nodes to change.
I'm planning on just booking it right as the servers go live, so hopefully I manage to avoid all the strong mobs and get to New Aela on lvl 1. I got no clue what I'll be doing from there, but that's a problem for the future me.
HUGE disadvantage to alpha 2 keyholders starting November 8.. all the nodes will be fully leveled up by then, and we miss out on building of a node experience, very disappointed in this
Aa cool as some of these aspects in AoC seem to be I believe that it leaves to much room for toxicity. I would rather grinde to the bone on pve world exploring than work my tail off focused in a particular isolated spot of the game trying to get a node built right or protected.
Nahh paying for alpha that will vanish with your money in future its at least neglected not even stupid 😂 Not matter what they give you it's just not worth not even money but time of your life. Let's just watch how iterpid slaves play 😂
First!
Good video, Xillin.
Would love a video about the Lawless zones. Are they worth going to for the resources there?

I gotta get my ass to oaken keep when they bring the surveys back up. That sounds cool af
LETS GET IT
For the algorithm.
Get this message out in the world! A2 mayors NEED to coordinate their building! Otherwise we can't test all the crafting stuff!
Good info. Thanks Xillin.
When will the different Node Bonuses be revealed.
Oh, so what’s insane about it?

Is the alpha2 just weekend tests?
I love New Aela! Its landscape is very nice. Love the western part of the Riverlands.
TWO more sleeps 🙁
Are you telling me I wasn’t subscribed this WHOLE time?!?!?
Thanks for the reminder!

Great video! Just subbed!! Keep em' coming man! Your making good content!
This seems interesting. I wonder how many people can belong to those small nodes.
"you have to buy seeds" oh boy, Monsantos is in the game
