If Steven is anything, he's a great communicator. Seriously, it's going to be an absolute tragedy if he's not voice acting an NPC leading me on an adventure. If he's not ever played D&D or lead a game he should because he'd be THE guy. Edit* Maybe a crow or bird or something of the sort(Supernatural), laying a path before and enriching it along the way. I see you Steven. You have a gravity about you and it's a major reason I was drawn into this project.
@Jesse-b9jtbh there is not that much to ask about AoC, Almost Everything has been answered already, so talking about Steven likes and dislikes help us make an idea of what AoC is
You and No1 are very organized and well spoken and I think Steven appreciates that, I know I do. There is a little banter which is great of course but some other AMA’s that others have done are all over the place and hard to follow. Just great stuff, great questions and great hosts. GG’s bro
Comment for the algorithm. Happy for you and Else, Nyce. You guys asked harder questions than others have, even if the answers were pretty much the expected. Now we cross our fingers for the launch of A2! Excited to see what the future holds.
Amazing questions. This definitely felt like a job interview instead of a conversation for Steven. Definitely put him on the spot but overall great questions
Always love to hear Steven talking about MMORPGs, seems just like any fellow player. Hope for the best because we do really need a new World to play on. Very curious to see Healer gameplay, tired of looking at party frames and not the actual game
Really liked the little minigame at the end to try to reveal Steven's more gamer side. Lol. If you get to do another one like this, you should throw some unique social interactions / dilemmas that players might experience in an MMO that typically create conflict and/or drama and ask Steven how he'd handle those situations as a player within Ashes. That'd be kinda cool to hear his gamer mind at work but could also give us more insight on the possibilities of actionable resolutions we could expect within Ashes.
It is not the strongest or the smartest species which survive and thrive on earth, it is the most adaptable. Love to hear how their adaptability is the greatest strength of the ashes team! Thanks to the interviewer and interviewee for this spectacular piece of content!
Love the star wars galaxies response mentioning the jedi system. It was amazing, year long commitment, but amazing. You said wow not wow, classic, and should have specified. I think that's a very distinct difference
I have missed the feedback from games, I.e. risk reward and bringing back the player-to-player interactions whether they are confrontational or friendly.
Likewise. I think it’s why Elden Ring was a breath of fresh air for gamers far as risk. Far as social we truly need these inters back in gaming and MMOs specifically
Dark Age of Camelot from 2001 had 500vs500vs500 players doing RvR(RealmVsRealmVsRealm). Yes, it was laggy, yes the server sometimes went down because of it, but we still had our epic fights. A game from 2001!! Never before have I've seen fights like that, in any other MMO. I hope AoC can bring these big epics fights back to life 🙏
Not sure wether to be proud or sad that the graph shown when explaining new game that falls off i recognise and know its the new world population graph
Wow that blind ranking was actually not bad imo, though I might move up WoW and Black desert. I loved star wars galaxies back in the day, underrated experience. Seems steven has a lot of similar game interest that I do
@@MrMcswiggens I’m glad. That was one of the goals of this interview and the difficult pve question. It may be worth keeping an eye on however 👀 perhaps loosely or further down the line
To be clear then, Intrepid can confortably achieve 300v300 + NPCs right now? The answer sounded like 300players total + 2500 NPCs Also, in regards to PvE, Steven has talked about difficulty adjustments (not from pvp) in Dungeon Bosses based on performance. That is still a feature right? It would contribute to the competition vs FFXIV and WoW
Thank you for beeing clear! Now I know this game is not for me. Not even a bit... what a shame, but better to know now than after release. I hope someday there will be a great PvE only MMO
The first time i saw how passionate he was about the game was when he was doing Interviews with Asmongold and the Summit1g/Shroud one 4 years ago. You could just tell he is extremely dedicated to the project. Its pretty contagious.
@@h8br33d79 right!?! Intrepid could’ve easily within their right shot down the idea or even have me remove that portion. They have me freedom creatively and that says a lot about them imo
As the game is not hard PvP game it's not a hard PvE game. I would consider it a Political MMO game. Closest I can think back in the days that was like this is Tibia and that game was absolutely amazing! Looking forward to play this game!
On the difficult PvE content, I think for those people who are not in the very top guilds, the ones that release strategies for theme park MMOs, a significant amount of difficulty will be added by not having a consistent available strategy guide for high end raids and dungeons, and also not being able to spec player builds entirely for PvE.
@@Nyce-Gaming haha, all good brother. I've been quite successful in my life financially so I always love seeing people excelling in making money and in the UA-cam space building what is effectively a business venture!
I'm really hoping there's good group vs group pvp opportunities and it's not just a zerg fest. I loved roaming in a small - full size group in DAoC. The open world pvp and node wars in Ashes are cool but so far nothing I've seen showcased seems like it'll scratch my itch of the old DAoC 8v8 roaming full group fights. Every game just feels like a zerg fest and I'm not about it. Guess we'll just have to settle for playing a stealth group and being a menace in forced pvp zones if there's no proper group content for my small guild. Hopefully they'll have battlegrounds or arena's that are worth playing in as well at different levels. One of my favorite things from DAoC was being able to turn off xp and keep characters in battlegrounds.
Loving the hype before A2. Just hope Steven’s voice can handle all the interviews. Just hope the team stays true to their vision and block the naysayers out.
The blind ranking was fun, mostly seeing Steven mentally calculating potential for reputational risk 😂 Clearly a passionate & knowledgeable chap. Imagine asking the CEO of Activision Blizzard.
Love the channel and always check in on new AOC updates, do you have any guild recommendations or a community ?don’t have any buddies that have the game but realize this is not a game for solo players. Keep up the great work!
This MMO will be Master Looter, as WOW was decades ago before they listened to the players and changed it to personnel loot. So far they have not changed their stance on that.
See this is what a quality Ama should be. LETS GOOOO VoV! @nyce @no1 @stevenshariff from a production standpoint all the way to the quality q's you guys crushed it. Of course it's off air so you had a unique opportunities to make it amazing but damn, this is the only AMA I could get through. The others just make my head hurt 😆🤣 happy to be a part of this team, community and as soon as ai figure out discord Syn 🤣 cuz yea... trash at it.

This is awesome! I’m halfway through and you’re crushing it!
Man Steven will be remembered as an absolute legend when this game inevitably becomes gold.
he has potential to affect the whole genre
@@Nyce-Gaming He is a scammer and a con man. You are part of this scam.
Aion was one of those games that is really interesting to start with. It had problems with stickiness though.
Because you never learnt how to slideshot you scrub /s (Seriously, you can search for Shielder vs Ecto on youtube to see some nice gameplay)
Ashes is doing what mmos should do , they are testing the shit out of to make sure it a great mmo.cudos 👍 to them
@@eliteone6122 facts!
There's probably a lot of hard work at play in most mmorpgs, but gamers only see praise and disappointment.
You and No1 are very organized and well spoken and I think Steven appreciates that, I know I do. There is a little banter which is great of course but some other AMA’s that others have done are all over the place and hard to follow.
Just great stuff, great questions and great hosts.

This means a lot. very kind words as a lot of effort went into this. thank you

really hope this does game does well. The amount of risk Steven is putting into this game is crazy
@@japes2310 yea. Ironic that his game is focused on risk vs reward with that considered
That was a very nice interview to watch, amazing work Nyce, No1 and Steven.
Thanks for watching!
The blind MMO ranking was easily my favorite part, i love this
appreciated! made things very fun 😄
Found the long time ESO mains. Solid interview gents.
@@MirukuESO thanks! 🫡 next stop AOC!

Good shit, Nyce! Great questions, and for the most part, I love that the community is a mish mash of people with all different MMO backgrounds.
Great interview guys. Loved the MMO rank mini game! Steven and his aliens! :D
@@AncientRunes thank you 👽
I wonder what he thinks about Guild Wars 2. Especially his thoughts about combat...
@@sospokemika1197 yea sucks so many MMOs had to be left off the list. Gw2, EverQuest, DAOC, RuneScape, etc
Well, Gw 2 is the first true action/tab targeting hybrid out there, so all the best? It should be go-to mmorpg inspiration for AoC combat imo.
@@MelFright I love Gw2 and its my main game, but I would love to see something less floaty and with an impact.
This was a lot of fun to watch.

Awesome interview!
Appreciated ! :)
why havent they announced what time the servers go live? only 1 week to go
I’m betting they’re still working things out last second and getting a plan together for us. Hoping it’s delivered soon as well
Good job, amazing interview
Glad you enjoyed it!
I understand it’s a small team , but I was just thinking about how open development takes x3 as long to develope , where as GtaV took 8 years
How much money does Rock Star have? How much of their development has already been refined?
Appreciate the interview, your team is always working hard and we appreciate it.

@@xyourdeus4972 it was a fun time. I think I’ll like to do it again but maybe like 15 or 20 since a lot had to be left out

@@MrMcswiggens I’m glad. That was one of the goals of this interview and the difficult pve question. It may be worth keeping an eye on however 👀 perhaps loosely or further down the line
