  1. Glorious Ashes of Creation Community, thank you again for continuing to follow along with our development journey. We would LOVE your feedback on the Citadel and Firebrand raid – Let us know what you think of the mechanics and how combat is coming along! Our team is working hard towards Alpha Two, and we cannot wait for you to join us on Verra October 25th!

  2. Let the dragon move around a little bit more while grounded! Dragons are very frightening when they are quick. Of course things need to be fair and accessible for all classes but giving it some additional movement would make it more interesting

  3. Ramp back the sun rays, fog and blooming effects a bit. Make sure we can see the environment clearly. Think you're working on it because you mentioned in the previous live preview you were working on lighting still. Dragon could kick up dirt, breathe smoke to obscure player vision for a short duration (it could fly up suddenly out of the smoke than crash down on players randomly), but yeah, don't make it hard to see what's going on by default. Please 🙂

    Also, the wand attacks, magic beams and tethering all seem a bit classic WoWish…. https://youtube.com/shorts/PMyMVKSoOzU?si=Nb5RfbGHe4v8RHtx

    Have different stages of music, intensify the battle as it enters different stages by changing the song a bit. Castlevania 2 Dracula fight had the coolest progression IMO.

    Give more drops like crafting items, gold to the winning guild etc. Don't let players leave empty handed. Use dungeons and raids as a way for people to get resources and materials so at least if they don't suceed thye feel like there's a reason to keep doing the content.

    Also with normal dungeons don't limit the runs, make it a good way to farm resources outside of just farming resources in the open world, otherwise dungeons will die. Ie New World. I like a lot of their dungeons but there's no point doing them once you've done them a few times but i hnestly jsut want to be able to run through multiple times a day farming resources, wiping out mobs and exploring the dungeons. Make dungeons almsot like an arpg map IMO

  4. so when are you gonna showcase the…. what do you call it, the dual class feature? Tank/Tank = Guardian right? so when are we gonna see those? because I'm interested in seeing what the difference is between a Nightshield (Tank/Rogue) and Warden (Tank/Ranger) for example. I assume one will be a ranked tank?

  5. Very promising what was shown in this video cant wait to try it out ! I would love to see something different for the loot tho, maybe some more larger icons or pop up on the middle of the screen or something

  6. I just want to say this. I definitely recommend you to take a look at Knight Online in terms of PvP mechanics and map. New mmorpg games are always introducing new pvp mechanics and maps, but none of them provide the taste and excitement of Knight Online. Let's not forget that Knight Online continues to be played with thousands of players for 20 years. And Knight Online is not a game that can be played without premium, even though it is paid, thousands of players play it without getting bored. Rise Online, similar to Knight Online, has been released. Likewise, Rise Online continues to be played at a premium, attracting thousands of players. Research what I wrote and examine it, I think you will agree with me.

  7. This game is starting to look more and more like ESO to me. An amazingly beautiful world, traditional western fantasy, really cool world and dungeon content, with the worst action combat system ruining it all. For all the talk of we miss old mmos it looks like they copy pasta'd the feedbackless combat system from new world. I was really hoping for an old school tab target system like EQ, vanilla wow, etc. im holding my breath cause the game isnt even in alpha 2 yet, but im really nervous about the combat.

  8. 200$ to test the game for you, people used to get paid to test the game now we are targeting people pockets and fomo. If the game was good you would have it for free so everyone would tell their friends. Last game that did pay for early access was d4 and I learned the hard way.

  9. Great update! Getting sooooo excited!

    One thing that bugs me, and not just with this vid, but it seems to be a THANG in YouTubers vocab these days, why the F do people keep saying YOU GUYSES??? lol. Just say we do it for YOU!! GUYSES??? WTF is GUYSES??? 😆😆😆. It's not English, and I know for a fact it's not VULCAN, so where the F does it come from?? 🤔 There are plenty of ways to get your message across without making up (or perpetuating shit words that don't and SHOULDN'T exist!) Ok, get's off soap box, and moves on. Breathes deeply. Falls over. #saynotoguyses #shitwordsareshit
