A very enlightening interview that has pushed me more towards the possibility of purchasing access to the testing phase once my work tempo steadies out.
yo dude you got bots in your comments
I bought the Alpha because of Steven's reaction to Narc's video. I have no problem dropping 110 dollars in support of a director / CEO as open and unafraid to speak their mind as Steven.
oh boy here we go, haha
I don't want to see people have to schedule wars for like 9pm next Tuesday. That shit won't fly. A 5 minute countdown would be plenty.
Thank you for sharing just the interview. Easier to click through and see different parts!
So they do not want an Ultima Online dragging mobs into the bank area and forcing every afk seller fight? Nothing like being the cause of a system wide patch :).
i wonder if they are going to do something about people training levelers to take their spot/stuff droped?
The "was the caravan system inspired by silk road online" question threw me off a little; had lost a solid minute to trying to conceptualize how a mmo caravan system could be inspired by a drug trafficking site on tor network… didn't know about the mmo
Maaan, Nothing on healing or tanking? 😢
Why did you private the WF vid? xD
We didn’t need Pirate to adjust the game to his needs Steven. Please, listen to the actual community and not a single content creator.
Lets goooo!!! Love hearing about this game
I hope they decide to open up early level crafting so you can create some basic items with much lower effort. It sucks that venders sell apprentice lvl food, for example, that takes so much effort for a cook that needs farming or fishing as well just to create. IMO, even remove early vendor gear and make that gear cost x amount of one type of common ore + fuel to make.
I hope the dumb drama blows over soon, now that it's entangled with a guild war it's literally devolving into internet politics
It's lame to see people characterizing you as on par with Satan over video games lol
This videos thumbnail is unhinged and I love everything about it.
ive actually refused to get a croc mount due to their land and water speed being swapped, and have instead rolled with a wolf, but with the Journeyman mounts becoming available in Halc shortly im going with my current favorite, the veshen komodo
This mf just gonna keep on posting like nothing happened 😂 straight up exposed in 4K and has the AUDACITY to upload ferret and gaming content
the rarity system for crafting, i think is bugged. I used epic, heroic and legendary parts to make a new hunting bow (thinking i would at least get a rare or higher) and only got an uncommon. Which was also only better than the common i had by 3 points on everything. definitely not worth it and a waste of materials.
