Intro

  • 00:00
Hello, everyone, and welcome to our February development update for Ashes of Creation.
  • 00:22
We hope that you've been having a wonderful month. We know we have been having a busy one.
  • 00:27
And there has been a lot going on for us internally. As you all know, this year we're going into Alpha 2, so it's kind of a big, exciting thing for us.
  • 00:37
And that means a lot of things are in the way.
  • 00:40
And thank goodness, thank goodness we had an extra day this month. Oh, whoops.
  • 00:43
You are peeking.
  • 00:45
I am peeking. I'm peeking. Peekaboo.
  • 00:49
You're just approving everyone's use of Alpha.
  • 00:52
I was just saying, thank goodness we have an extra day this month.
  • 00:56
And we're doing our live stream online.
  • 00:57
Is it today? Today's Leap Day, right?
  • 01:00
Is it?
  • 01:01
Is it Leap Day? I think it is Leap Day.
  • 01:04
Potentially.
  • 01:05
I don't know.
  • 01:06
It's the 29th of the month.
  • 01:08
Right.
  • 01:09
It always changes, right?
  • 01:11
I know. Every four years.
  • 01:14
Oh, yes. Thursday the 29th is Leap Day. The next Leap Year will be 2028.
  • 01:20
Yeah, I don't know how I'm going to be able to adjust my audio. Sorry.
  • 01:25
It's kind of how the stuff's coming.
  • 01:27
And so I will do what I can.
  • 01:30
Apologies. I'll talk loudly.
  • 01:33
Yeah, I don't know why you're coming through super loud.
  • 01:36
And I'm I don't know.
  • 01:40
It happened last month, too.
  • 01:42
And I even went through and I tested all the audio before we went live and it still still did it.
  • 01:47
So that's weird.
  • 01:49
I'm not sure what's going on between the last couple of streams.
  • 01:53
Hmm. Well, we can try to we can try to adjust that.
  • 01:57
Yes, I will try to adjust it as we're going through.
  • 01:59
Yeah.
  • 01:59
But in the meantime, please bear with me.
  • 02:02
I will try to talk loudly and get through it as best I can for you all.
  • 02:09
But today we have quite a run of show for you.
  • 02:11
As you can see below, we have our reminders.
  • 02:15
We're going to be doing a commissions preview.
  • 02:16
Commissions are a little quite different than probably what you've seen before in regards to how they are incorporated into our world and change the world.
  • 02:25
And we're going to really show you guys how.
  • 02:26
One little thing on a messaging board can change the world around you as you're exploring.
  • 02:32
And then we also have our studio update, art update, and then we'll do a Q&A as per usual.
  • 02:37
But before we get into all of that, we have our subscriber comment spotlight.

Reminders

  • 02:42
And of course, this is because they have subscribed to our YouTube channel and left a comment on our big development update post.
  • 02:48
And you, too, can also be spotlighted.
  • 02:50
Remember that if you are subscribed to us, make sure that you have that post public.
  • 02:54
And then also allow us to see that you are.
  • 02:56
Subscriber and leave a comment on the development update live stream for February, the one that you're watching right now.
  • 03:03
But this one is from Ad Astra, and I will show it over here on the screen for you all.
  • 03:12
All right.
  • 03:13
And they're asking, hello, intrepid team.
  • 03:14
My question is about the enemy's field of vision in the open world.
  • 03:18
How far away from hostile targets will be?
  • 03:22
Will they be before they act aggressively towards us?
  • 03:25
More specifically.
  • 03:26
Will creatures watch us murder their friends in the open world with no reaction?
  • 03:31
Will they try to kill us in retaliation, or will they run away in sheer terror?
  • 03:36
Thank you.
  • 03:38
Yeah, that is a great question.
  • 03:41
Obviously, as MMO gamers, we're accustomed to the concept of, like, social aggro.
  • 03:46
When I hit a target out in the field, they're going to aggro other creatures nearby.
  • 03:55
We have similar functionality, obviously.
  • 03:58
However, we also have this concept of a more puzzle-oriented level design, right, where you have different patrollers that might be moving around the world.
  • 04:10
So that dynamic is always changing.
  • 04:12
The creatures that are near each other might be something that you need to be cognizant of as you begin to navigate those areas.
  • 04:19
And there might even be certain faction types, right, where you may have dedicated.
  • 04:25
Agro social tags between certain creature types, and that might be, like, goblins with their goblin dogs, right?
  • 04:33
They could be far away, but they send off an alert to those nearby enemies when you aggro another target.
  • 04:39
And then you also have these perception radiuses, right?
  • 04:43
And there's a number of different perception radius types that we incorporate as part of our AI.
  • 04:47
Those things might be a forward-looking perception cone that represents kind of site-based perception.
  • 04:54
And then there's the perception cone.
  • 04:55
And then there's the perception cone.
  • 04:55
And then there's the perception cone.
  • 04:55
And then there's the perception cone.
  • 04:55
And then there's the perception cone.
  • 04:55
And then you might also have a rear perception radius that might represent kind of sound.
  • 05:01
And those perception types might even interact with unique stats.
  • 05:05
So as a rogue, you might have a stealth ability.
  • 05:09
Or as a ranger, you might have camouflage ability.
  • 05:11
Those are going to dampen those stats which are checked by those perception radiuses.
  • 05:17
And then you might even have, you know, different creature types that fly above the battlefield or beneath the battlefield.
  • 05:24
And they may have downward.
  • 05:25
And you can tell if someone is on it in time because of this game.
  • 05:27
And if they are, it's like they have a цел
  • 05:53
Ehem.
  • 05:54
Ah, there we go.
  • 05:55
uh that that is the important part of world design right and and encounter design um so it's
  • 06:00
something we want to make sure is compelling all right yeah i am really not sure what's going on
  • 06:06
with the audience i apologize in advance i'm working through it but hopefully you guys can
  • 06:11
still hear you'll just have to turn it up a little bit for now while i'm adjusting it apologies um
  • 06:18
i can keep riffing by the way if you want me to if you want to keep playing
  • 06:21
with that totally fine with me i have no problem yeah sure sure let me talk let me talk a little
  • 06:28
bit more about our ai and and what we've incorporated for perception um you know
  • 06:35
obviously when we talk about enemy factions uh it's not just how they interact but it's i just
  • 06:41
have no idea why my mic is very quiet okay got it i think that will just be i will just be quieter
  • 06:51
and i
  • 06:51
am uncertain as to how i can fix that right now it's okay i you can talk through me you just tell
  • 06:57
me what you just tell me the topic you want to talk because i can hear you great you just tell
  • 07:00
me the thing you want to talk about and i'll yeah i'll translate through uh that way for them but i
  • 07:05
think they can still hear me it's just it's okay um anyways i want to move on to the next thing
  • 07:11
just so we can keep things moving along but thank you for that youtube comment we appreciate it
  • 07:16
that's a good one it's an easy one we already know the plan that we have in regards to ai and whatnot
  • 07:22
the next thing is dev discussion about esports and we know that this was a hot topic for folks
  • 07:28
and we're actually very curious about it so the question here was what are your thoughts
  • 07:34
on esports and player-run competitive events in the mmorpgs genre what type of competitive
  • 07:39
spectator friendly content do you think would be fitting for ashes of creation
  • 07:43
are there any tools you'd like that would make competitive events easier for players to run
  • 07:48
and again i think that this made people think we were thinking about
  • 07:51
esports in the mmorpgs scene and then developingленard we were thinking about esports do you think that this made people think we were thinking about esports to a similar sense to some extent
  • 07:51
esports but it's more of hey if players take things off and want to do esports oriented things
  • 07:56
we want to support community wherever the community goes and what you guys want to do we
  • 08:00
want to support that and ashes of creation is planned to be a competitive game and so we just
  • 08:06
want to make sure that you all have the tools that you need in order to do the cool things that you
  • 08:09
want to do and obviously we'll have some in-game run events but we also know that players run their
  • 08:14
own events even during alpha one there a group of people came over to a bridge and they were
  • 08:20
creating like a 1v1 battle and we loved seeing that um don't think it didn't go missed we saw
  • 08:26
what you guys were doing and we really thought it was cool um so we just want to make sure you
  • 08:29
guys also have the tools that you need yeah you know just to comment on this uh real quick esports
  • 08:34
because i you know as an mmo player right um i really like what esports represent right which
  • 08:41
is this this idea of kind of team-based uh performance and competition um what i would
  • 08:48
say as an mmo player is you know esports
  • 08:50
tends to miss out on a core element that's unique to mmo rpgs which is progression right and it's
  • 08:58
difficult to represent that progression in the traditional esports format that we see with other
  • 09:03
game and genres today however what i will say is that i have participated in some mmos that have
  • 09:11
stood up kind of cross-server competitions and i've really personally enjoyed those types of
  • 09:19
cross-server competitions and i've really personally enjoyed those types of cross-server competitions
  • 09:20
and i've really personally enjoyed those types of cross-server competitions where you know you bring the best
  • 09:22
where you know you bring the best that those individual servers have to offer with regards to
  • 09:26
that those individual servers have to offer with regards to you know groups or teams or constant
  • 09:27
you know groups or teams or constant parties as we like to call them and you allow them to compete
  • 09:31
parties as we like to call them and you allow them to compete in an arena format right or in a castle
  • 09:33
in an arena format right or in a castle siege format like that is super cool i love that server
  • 09:37
siege format like that is super cool i love that server versus server type of type of you know
  • 09:41
versus server type of type of you know competition um and i think that's where there is a potential
  • 09:44
competition um and i think that's where there is a potential to do something interesting with regards
  • 09:47
to esports and um the mmorpg genre so it was really cool to see players kind of opine on that
  • 09:55
um you know there's a lot of obviously similar thoughts but as you said it's a highly charged
  • 09:59
discussion yeah it's a it's a spicy one primarily because everyone sees it in a different way
  • 10:04
um and obviously esports has become such a big thing in different spaces um and that doesn't
  • 10:10
mean that we're gonna go buy a stadium and start doing that kind of thing right but it's more of
  • 10:16
right but it's more of just
  • 10:17
just being conscious of what the community wants and if the community is like hey
  • 10:20
being conscious of what the community wants and if the community is like hey
  • 10:20
no we don't like that it gives us a good perspective on like where to spend
  • 10:23
no we don't like that it gives us a good perspective on like where to spend our time when we're developing things
  • 10:25
our time when we're developing things and with that we are ready to talk about

Commission Preview

  • 10:28
and with that we are ready to talk about commissions do you want to do the preview
  • 10:31

i want you to think about this when you're watching the showcase
  • 11:12
you're watching the showcase commissions are a very traditional
  • 11:14
commissions are a very traditional format when it comes to questing right
  • 11:16
format when it comes to questing right questing and mmorpgs we're not trying to
  • 11:20
questing and mmorpgs we're not trying to um you know to recreate the wheel so to
  • 11:23
um you know to recreate the wheel so to speak in what that questing feels like
  • 11:25
speak in what that questing feels like however with that being said
  • 11:28
however with that being said how the questing affects the world is
  • 11:31
how the questing affects the world is really the bread and butter of where
  • 11:32
really the bread and butter of where commissions
  • 11:34
commissions are essentially
  • 11:34
are essentially
  • 11:34
commissions are essentially the start of that daisy chain of events
  • 11:38
the start of that daisy chain of events these are very small easily digestible
  • 11:42
these are very small easily digestible quick grab and run kind of activities
  • 11:44
quick grab and run kind of activities that you get to do in the world and
  • 11:46
that you get to do in the world and you're going to see that but they have
  • 11:48
you're going to see that but they have consequences and they influence the
  • 11:50
consequences and they influence the world based on the number of players
  • 11:52
world based on the number of players that are adopting those quests those
  • 11:54
that are adopting those quests those quests
  • 11:56
quests those commissions and are going out and
  • 11:58
commissions and are going out and how they complete them is what's going to
  • 12:00
how they complete them is what's going to influence the next step it is a domino
  • 12:03
influence the next step it is a domino type effect that creates
  • 12:04
type effect that creates
  • 12:05
type effect that creates activity which which then causes events
  • 12:07
activity which which then causes events
  • 12:08
activity which which then causes events which then causes story arcs which then
  • 12:11
which then causes story arcs which then
  • 12:11
which then causes story arcs which then mold and shape the way the world around
  • 12:13
mold and shape the way the world around
  • 12:13

adventuring by yourself in vera okay here we go here we go here we go
  • 26:31
okay here we go here we go here we go
  • 26:32
okay here we go here we go here we go you know one thing you'll see about the
  • 26:34
you know one thing you'll see about the
  • 26:34
you know one thing you'll see about the commission board and how it generates
  • 26:36
commission board and how it generates
  • 26:36
commission board and how it generates its commissions
  • 26:37
its commissions
  • 26:37
its commissions one thing is that all players uh in the
  • 26:40
one thing is that all players uh in the
  • 26:40
one thing is that all players uh in the node will see the same commissions
  • 26:42
node will see the same commissions
  • 26:42
node will see the same commissions so there is a really good chance when
  • 26:44
so there is a really good chance when
  • 26:44
so there is a really good chance when you take one of these from the board
  • 26:46
you take one of these from the board
  • 26:46
you take one of these from the board that there will be
  • 26:48
that there will be
  • 26:48
that there will be many other players fighting alongside
  • 26:49
many other players fighting alongside
  • 26:49
many other players fighting alongside you
  • 26:50
you
  • 26:50
you and that's how we get those like large
  • 26:52
and that's how we get those like large
  • 26:52
and that's how we get those like large activity map generation to start
  • 26:55
activity map generation to start
  • 26:55
activity map generation to start spawning events
  • 26:58
spawning events
  • 26:58
spawning events yeah that that is i mean obviously these
  • 27:00
yeah that that is i mean obviously these
  • 27:00
yeah that that is i mean obviously these these help to kind of
  • 27:02
these help to kind of
  • 27:02
these help to kind of you know move player traffic throughout
  • 27:04
you know move player traffic throughout
  • 27:04
you know move player traffic throughout the world because
  • 27:05
the world because
  • 27:05
the world because as we said nodes act as a hub and one
  • 27:09
as we said nodes act as a hub and one
  • 27:09
as we said nodes act as a hub and one of the ways they
  • 27:10
of the ways they
  • 27:10
of the ways they they they direct player traffic is
  • 27:13
they they direct player traffic is
  • 27:13
they they direct player traffic is obviously through the commissions the

obviously through the commissions the

buy orders you know things that that

essentially are

and then what what the players choose to

our quest content doesn't get much more complicated especially when

much more complicated especially when

you start getting involved in story arcs

you start getting involved in story arcs at that level

at that level

so as you level your node and that
  • 28:49
as you level your node and that
  • 28:49
as you level your node and that begins more story arcs even more content

begins more story arcs even more content

begins more story arcs even more content related to those stories that they

Hello, everyone, and welcome to our February development update for Ashes of Creation.
  • 00:22
We hope that you've been having a wonderful month. We know we have been having a busy one.
  • 00:27
And there has been a lot going on for us internally. As you all know, this year we're going into Alpha 2, so it's kind of a big, exciting thing for us.
  • 00:37
And that means a lot of things are in the way.
  • 00:40
And thank goodness, thank goodness we had an extra day this month. Oh, whoops.
  • 00:43
You are peeking.
  • 00:45
I am peeking. I'm peeking. Peekaboo.
  • 00:49
You're just approving everyone's use of Alpha.
  • 00:52
I was just saying, thank goodness we have an extra day this month.
  • 00:56
And we're doing our live stream online.
  • 00:57
Is it today? Today's Leap Day, right?
  • 01:00
Is it?
  • 01:01
Is it Leap Day? I think it is Leap Day.
  • 01:04
Potentially.
  • 01:05
I don't know.
  • 01:06
It's the 29th of the month.
  • 01:08
Right.
  • 01:09
It always changes, right?
  • 01:11
I know. Every four years.
  • 01:14
Oh, yes. Thursday the 29th is Leap Day. The next Leap Year will be 2028.
  • 01:20
Yeah, I don't know how I'm going to be able to adjust my audio. Sorry.
  • 01:25
It's kind of how the stuff's coming.
  • 01:27
And so I will do what I can.
  • 01:30
Apologies. I'll talk loudly.
  • 01:33
Yeah, I don't know why you're coming through super loud.
  • 01:36
And I'm I don't know.
  • 01:40
It happened last month, too.
  • 01:42
And I even went through and I tested all the audio before we went live and it still still did it.
  • 01:47
So that's weird.
  • 01:49
I'm not sure what's going on between the last couple of streams.
  • 01:53
Hmm. Well, we can try to we can try to adjust that.
  • 01:57
Yes, I will try to adjust it as we're going through.
  • 01:59
Yeah.
  • 01:59
But in the meantime, please bear with me.
  • 02:02
I will try to talk loudly and get through it as best I can for you all.
  • 02:09
But today we have quite a run of show for you.
  • 02:11
As you can see below, we have our reminders.
  • 02:15
We're going to be doing a commissions preview.
  • 02:16
Commissions are a little quite different than probably what you've seen before in regards to how they are incorporated into our world and change the world.
  • 02:25
And we're going to really show you guys how.
  • 02:26
One little thing on a messaging board can change the world around you as you're exploring.
  • 02:32
And then we also have our studio update, art update, and then we'll do a Q&A as per usual.
  • 02:37
But before we get into all of that, we have our subscriber comment spotlight.
  • 02:42
And of course, this is because they have subscribed to our YouTube channel and left a comment on our big development update post.
  • 02:48
And you, too, can also be spotlighted.
  • 02:50
Remember that if you are subscribed to us, make sure that you have that post public.
  • 02:54
And then also allow us to see that you are.
  • 02:56
Subscriber and leave a comment on the development update live stream for February, the one that you're watching right now.
  • 03:03
But this one is from Ad Astra, and I will show it over here on the screen for you all.
  • 03:12
All right.
  • 03:13
And they're asking, hello, intrepid team.
  • 03:14
My question is about the enemy's field of vision in the open world.
  • 03:18
How far away from hostile targets will be?
  • 03:22
Will they be before they act aggressively towards us?
  • 03:25
More specifically.
  • 03:26
Will creatures watch us murder their friends in the open world with no reaction?
  • 03:31
Will they try to kill us in retaliation, or will they run away in sheer terror?
  • 03:36
Thank you.
  • 03:38
Yeah, that is a great question.
  • 03:41
Obviously, as MMO gamers, we're accustomed to the concept of, like, social aggro.
  • 03:46
When I hit a target out in the field, they're going to aggro other creatures nearby.
  • 03:55
We have similar functionality, obviously.
  • 03:58
However, we also have this concept of a more puzzle-oriented level design, right, where you have different patrollers that might be moving around the world.
  • 04:10
So that dynamic is always changing.
  • 04:12
The creatures that are near each other might be something that you need to be cognizant of as you begin to navigate those areas.
  • 04:19
And there might even be certain faction types, right, where you may have dedicated.
  • 04:25
Agro social tags between certain creature types, and that might be, like, goblins with their goblin dogs, right?
  • 04:33
They could be far away, but they send off an alert to those nearby enemies when you aggro another target.
  • 04:39
And then you also have these perception radiuses, right?
  • 04:43
And there's a number of different perception radius types that we incorporate as part of our AI.
  • 04:47
Those things might be a forward-looking perception cone that represents kind of site-based perception.
  • 04:54
And then there's the perception cone.
  • 04:55
And then there's the perception cone.
  • 04:55
And then there's the perception cone.
  • 04:55
And then there's the perception cone.
  • 04:55
And then there's the perception cone.
  • 04:55
And then you might also have a rear perception radius that might represent kind of sound.
  • 05:01
And those perception types might even interact with unique stats.
  • 05:05
So as a rogue, you might have a stealth ability.
  • 05:09
Or as a ranger, you might have camouflage ability.
  • 05:11
Those are going to dampen those stats which are checked by those perception radiuses.
  • 05:17
And then you might even have, you know, different creature types that fly above the battlefield or beneath the battlefield.
  • 05:24
And they may have downward.
  • 05:25
And you can tell if someone is on it in time because of this game.
  • 05:27
And if they are, it's like they have a цел
  • 05:53
Ehem.
  • 05:54
Ah, there we go.
  • 05:55
uh that that is the important part of world design right and and encounter design um so it's
  • 06:00
something we want to make sure is compelling all right yeah i am really not sure what's going on
  • 06:06
with the audience i apologize in advance i'm working through it but hopefully you guys can
  • 06:11
still hear you'll just have to turn it up a little bit for now while i'm adjusting it apologies um
  • 06:18
i can keep riffing by the way if you want me to if you want to keep playing
  • 06:21
with that totally fine with me i have no problem yeah sure sure let me talk let me talk a little
  • 06:28
bit more about our ai and and what we've incorporated for perception um you know
  • 06:35
obviously when we talk about enemy factions uh it's not just how they interact but it's i just
  • 06:41
have no idea why my mic is very quiet okay got it i think that will just be i will just be quieter
  • 06:51
and i
  • 06:51
am uncertain as to how i can fix that right now it's okay i you can talk through me you just tell
  • 06:57
me what you just tell me the topic you want to talk because i can hear you great you just tell
  • 07:00
me the thing you want to talk about and i'll yeah i'll translate through uh that way for them but i
  • 07:05
think they can still hear me it's just it's okay um anyways i want to move on to the next thing
  • 07:11
just so we can keep things moving along but thank you for that youtube comment we appreciate it
  • 07:16
that's a good one it's an easy one we already know the plan that we have in regards to ai and whatnot
  • 07:22
the next thing is dev discussion about esports and we know that this was a hot topic for folks
  • 07:28
and we're actually very curious about it so the question here was what are your thoughts
  • 07:34
on esports and player-run competitive events in the mmorpgs genre what type of competitive
  • 07:39
spectator friendly content do you think would be fitting for ashes of creation
  • 07:43
are there any tools you'd like that would make competitive events easier for players to run
  • 07:48
and again i think that this made people think we were thinking about
  • 07:51
esports in the mmorpgs scene and then developingленard we were thinking about esports do you think that this made people think we were thinking about esports to a similar sense to some extent
  • 07:51
esports but it's more of hey if players take things off and want to do esports oriented things
  • 07:56
we want to support community wherever the community goes and what you guys want to do we
  • 08:00
want to support that and ashes of creation is planned to be a competitive game and so we just
  • 08:06
want to make sure that you all have the tools that you need in order to do the cool things that you
  • 08:09
want to do and obviously we'll have some in-game run events but we also know that players run their
  • 08:14
own events even during alpha one there a group of people came over to a bridge and they were
  • 08:20
creating like a 1v1 battle and we loved seeing that um don't think it didn't go missed we saw
  • 08:26
what you guys were doing and we really thought it was cool um so we just want to make sure you
  • 08:29
guys also have the tools that you need yeah you know just to comment on this uh real quick esports
  • 08:34
because i you know as an mmo player right um i really like what esports represent right which
  • 08:41
is this this idea of kind of team-based uh performance and competition um what i would
  • 08:48
say as an mmo player is you know esports
  • 08:50
tends to miss out on a core element that's unique to mmo rpgs which is progression right and it's
  • 08:58
difficult to represent that progression in the traditional esports format that we see with other
  • 09:03
game and genres today however what i will say is that i have participated in some mmos that have
  • 09:11
stood up kind of cross-server competitions and i've really personally enjoyed those types of
  • 09:19
cross-server competitions and i've really personally enjoyed those types of cross-server competitions
  • 09:20
and i've really personally enjoyed those types of cross-server competitions where you know you bring the best
  • 09:22
where you know you bring the best that those individual servers have to offer with regards to
  • 09:26
that those individual servers have to offer with regards to you know groups or teams or constant
  • 09:27
you know groups or teams or constant parties as we like to call them and you allow them to compete
  • 09:31
parties as we like to call them and you allow them to compete in an arena format right or in a castle
  • 09:33
in an arena format right or in a castle siege format like that is super cool i love that server
  • 09:37
siege format like that is super cool i love that server versus server type of type of you know
  • 09:41
versus server type of type of you know competition um and i think that's where there is a potential
  • 09:44
competition um and i think that's where there is a potential to do something interesting with regards
  • 09:47
to esports and um the mmorpg genre so it was really cool to see players kind of opine on that
  • 09:55
um you know there's a lot of obviously similar thoughts but as you said it's a highly charged
  • 09:59
discussion yeah it's a it's a spicy one primarily because everyone sees it in a different way
  • 10:04
um and obviously esports has become such a big thing in different spaces um and that doesn't
  • 10:10
mean that we're gonna go buy a stadium and start doing that kind of thing right but it's more of
  • 10:16
right but it's more of just
  • 10:17
just being conscious of what the community wants and if the community is like hey
  • 10:20
being conscious of what the community wants and if the community is like hey
  • 10:20
no we don't like that it gives us a good perspective on like where to spend
  • 10:23
no we don't like that it gives us a good perspective on like where to spend our time when we're developing things
  • 10:25
our time when we're developing things and with that we are ready to talk about
  • 10:28
and with that we are ready to talk about commissions do you want to do the preview
  • 10:31
commissions do you want to do the preview before
  • 10:32
before yeah absolutely i would love to um so
  • 10:35
yeah absolutely i would love to um so let me get give you guys a little bit of
  • 10:37
let me get give you guys a little bit of a preface here obviously i'm going to say
  • 10:39
a preface here obviously i'm going to say i'm going to be a broken record as i
  • 10:41
i'm going to be a broken record as i usually am
  • 10:42
usually am things are still a work in progress
  • 10:44
things are still a work in progress please keep that in mind as you are

  • 11:09
and i want you to think about this when
  • 11:10
i want you to think about this when you're watching the showcase
  • 11:12
you're watching the showcase commissions are a very traditional
  • 11:14
commissions are a very traditional format when it comes to questing right
  • 11:16
format when it comes to questing right questing and mmorpgs we're not trying to
  • 11:20
questing and mmorpgs we're not trying to um you know to recreate the wheel so to
  • 11:23
um you know to recreate the wheel so to speak in what that questing feels like
  • 11:25
speak in what that questing feels like however with that being said
  • 11:28
however with that being said how the questing affects the world is
  • 11:31
how the questing affects the world is really the bread and butter of where
  • 11:32
really the bread and butter of where commissions
  • 11:34
commissions are essentially
  • 11:34
are essentially
  • 11:34
commissions are essentially the start of that daisy chain of events
  • 11:38
the start of that daisy chain of events these are very small easily digestible
  • 11:42
these are very small easily digestible quick grab and run kind of activities
  • 11:44
quick grab and run kind of activities that you get to do in the world and
  • 11:46
that you get to do in the world and you're going to see that but they have
  • 11:48
you're going to see that but they have consequences and they influence the
  • 11:50
consequences and they influence the world based on the number of players
  • 11:52
world based on the number of players that are adopting those quests those
  • 11:54
that are adopting those quests those quests
  • 11:56
quests those commissions and are going out and
  • 11:58
commissions and are going out and how they complete them is what's going to
  • 12:00
how they complete them is what's going to influence the next step it is a domino
  • 12:03
influence the next step it is a domino type effect that creates
  • 12:04
type effect that creates
  • 12:05
type effect that creates activity which which then causes events
  • 12:07
activity which which then causes events
  • 12:08
activity which which then causes events which then causes story arcs which then
  • 12:11
which then causes story arcs which then
  • 12:11
which then causes story arcs which then mold and shape the way the world around
  • 12:13
mold and shape the way the world around

okay here we go here we go here we go you know one thing you'll see about the
  • 26:34
you know one thing you'll see about the
  • 26:34
you know one thing you'll see about the commission board and how it generates
  • 26:36
commission board and how it generates
  • 26:36
commission board and how it generates its commissions
  • 26:37
its commissions
  • 26:37
its commissions one thing is that all players uh in the
  • 26:40
one thing is that all players uh in the
  • 26:40
one thing is that all players uh in the node will see the same commissions
  • 26:42
node will see the same commissions
  • 26:42
node will see the same commissions so there is a really good chance when
  • 26:44
so there is a really good chance when
  • 26:44
so there is a really good chance when you take one of these from the board
  • 26:46
you take one of these from the board
  • 26:46
you take one of these from the board that there will be
  • 26:48
that there will be

you know move player traffic throughout

of the ways they

they they direct player traffic is
  • 27:13
they they direct player traffic is obviously through the commissions the

experience and things like that so um all this stuff does uh all play
  • 28:23
um all this stuff does uh all play
  • 28:23
um all this stuff does uh all play together and creates a very nice loop

um
  • 28:38
um

um and
  • 28:40
and
  • 28:40
and storics as well like are also one of
  • 28:42
and storics as well like are also one of the potential predicates for

begins more story arcs even more content
  • 28:52
begins more story arcs even more content related to those stories that they

bit about this weather system right that's pretty cool that we had the uh
  • 35:31
that's pretty cool that we had the uh
  • 35:31
that's pretty cool that we had the uh environmental hazards that spawned and
  • 35:33
environmental hazards that spawned and
  • 35:33
environmental hazards that spawned and that doesn't just pertain to the event
  • 35:34
that doesn't just pertain to the event
  • 35:34
that doesn't just pertain to the event right these these types of weather
  • 35:36
right these these types of weather
  • 35:36
right these these types of weather systems they can kind of be anywhere in

can also they can also just spawn based
  • 35:43
can also they can also just spawn based on a number of
  • 35:44
on a number of
  • 35:44
on a number of of like variables in the environment
  • 35:47
of like variables in the environment
  • 35:47
