00:07All right guys, welcome to our regularly scheduled monthly Q&A session, our live stream.
00:16We've got a special treat for you guys today.
00:19We are going to be doing a live playthrough of our pre-alpha build.
00:27This is in the alpha zero zone.
00:30It's a pretty vast zone, as many of you know, especially our alpha zero testers.
00:36But today we're going to be focusing in on one area to play through.
00:40You saw it last stream with a preview of Michael Bacon's Dunheim dungeon.
00:46We're going to be running through there today as a party.
00:51And actually, I'm going to leave this party.
00:56All right, I'm at a party.
00:57So as soon as you get in, Jeff, you're going to invite me.
01:01Okay.
01:02So we're going to be running through, answering some questions, just giving you guys an early look as a part
01:08of our whole transparent development into the status of the game.
01:15There you go.
01:16Jeff, we're good.
01:17I'm at a party.
01:19Hi, everybody.
01:20Hey, Jeff.
01:22We've got Peter with us today.
01:25Alex.
01:26We've got two Alexes, actually, today.
01:29We have Alex and Alex.
01:30Alex McPherson and Alex Kudoli.
01:35It's Kudoli, right?
01:36Kudoli?
01:38I can't hear you.
01:41Yes, it is.
01:42There you go.
01:44Alex, one of our programmers, and the other Alex, Alex McPherson, is one of our QA and IT guys.
01:55Hang on.
01:55I'm reducing my level now.
01:59Is this level better, guys?
02:03Testing my level.
02:04I can hear you good.
02:06You can't hear me now?
02:07No, I can hear you fine.
02:09I'm looking at Michael Bacon.
02:11Oh.
02:12He was telling me I was really loud.
02:14Oh, okay.
02:20The stream says sound is good.
02:23That's what I'd like to hear.
02:25I think we're just waiting on Peter now.
02:37What weapon should I use?
02:38So, I am playing a tank.
02:41I think my starting gear, we might find some gear in the dungeon, but I think my starting gear is
02:46either sword and board, staff, or...
02:50I think I have a bow on this as well.
02:54What does the stream want?
03:04We've got some...
03:04We've got staff.
03:05We've got sword and board, staff.
03:07Ooh, lots of staffs.
03:12Alright.
03:15Alright, I see a lot of staffs.
03:16We'll go with staff.
03:32Ooh, wait, not.
03:33Wait, not Peter?
03:35Oh, I think he's here.
03:36Hang on.
03:38I'm going to play with some of the monsters outside of this...
03:40outside of this dungeon.
04:03Alright, I think we're all good to go.
04:05Are we all in partying?
04:06Good to go?
04:06Alright, so standard pre-alpha disclaimer for those of you tuning in and who haven't been keeping up to date
04:14with our recent developments.
04:17This UI is absolutely placeholder.
04:19This is our pre-alpha.
04:21You're going to see a limited scope of some core systems.
04:24This was our first pre-alpha, which was really more of a friends and family for us.
04:28It was very technical on the side of getting users into the game in the single zone, testing some of
04:36the core experience, progression,
04:41and node development was very important for us, unlocking certain things like different dungeons and spawn tables and all that
04:47kind of stuff.
04:48You guys ready to run on into this dungeon?
04:51I think I am.
04:53Alright, I'm a little concerned.
04:54Let's try not to die on our...
04:57That's a lot to ask, Steven.
04:59Okay.
05:00Let's try not to die.
05:02We have a mage in the party.
05:03Let's go.
05:03Oh, we have a mage in the party.
05:04We're good.
05:05Wow, Alex.
05:12All right.
05:15We've arrived.
05:16Someone's been here.
05:20Looks like maybe a tank was here.
05:22Looks like a tank might have been here.
05:28Alright.
05:29Nice.
05:50We have some 4K photos that we'll be putting up in our next load up to the site, which should
05:57be this weekend, hopefully.
06:02Additionally, we have some questions that were posted on the forums.
06:06For those of you who haven't stopped by the forums, feel free to put some questions up.
06:13We're going to be answering them on stream.
06:15In addition, we have on our Discord a section called Livestream Q&A.
06:23If you guys aren't on Discord, go ahead, discord.gg forward slash ashesofcreation, and feel free to post some questions
06:30there.
06:30Where should we go, Jeff?
06:34Let's see.
06:35I think maybe to our left.
06:38Alright.
06:38Sounds like a solid plan.
06:39Just don't fall in the pit.
06:40What happens if I fall in the pit?
06:42You will die.
06:43Oh, that's unfortunate.
06:45Why would they put such an architectural error here?
06:48It's not an error.
06:49It's on purpose.
06:50Oh, no.
06:54You know how embarrassing it would have been if I fell in the pit?
06:56I was waiting for it.
06:58Stop.
07:00Hashtag no bully.
07:03Let me try to pull this mob.
07:15No, we should have gone Bacon in Discord to talk a little bit about the creation of this dungeon.
07:23Oh my gosh.
07:25It's Bacon.
07:26Bacon!
07:27I know you're listening.
07:28Jump in Discord.
07:31And I'm dead.
07:33Did you die?
07:34I died.
07:37Why'd you fight the agent protector?
07:38Is Alex down too?
07:39Uh, you pulled him.
07:41You didn't keep moss.
07:41He's the sorcerer made.
07:44Uh, do we have some resurrection?
07:46We could res you up.
07:46We got a cleric that's still alive.
07:48I think we do.
07:51I'm not technically the tank.
07:52Peter's the tank.
07:55I like that.
07:56Now you tell him.
08:00Can we res?
08:00Yeah, can we res?
08:01Alright.
08:05Oh, no.
08:06I don't know if I can get back.
08:09Oh, I pulled another guy.
08:23This guy hurts.
08:26Oh, gosh.
08:27Where's my cover?
08:28Did someone pull the, uh, another one?
08:30I need my safe bubble.
08:33Okay, I'm good.
08:35I used my bubble.
08:39Bacon, do you have Discord?
08:40If you have Discord, hop into a voice channel.
08:41I'll pull you in.
08:46Okay, I think we're all here.
08:48We are all here.
08:49I think we made it.
08:50Let me pull Bacon in.
08:52Bacon, jump into, uh, the village channel.
09:06Oh, never mind.
09:07Bacon doesn't have a mic.
09:09I mean, he could be in there.
09:11Yeah, that's true.
09:13Um, alright, so, I mean, I'll give a little bit of it.
09:16You guys are fighting through.
09:17Let me give a little bit of, uh, lore behind this, this dungeon.
09:20Oh, no.
09:23So, uh, the Dunaheim dungeon.
09:26Oh, my gosh.
09:27We just got spawned out by three adds.
09:33These ageless protectors really are ageless.
09:42So, uh, the, uh, the Dunaheim dungeon actually, um, is a dwarven, uh, was once a dwarven city, actually.
09:49The dwarven city of Dunaheim.
09:51And, uh, during the fall, uh, of Vera, uh, this, the inhabitants of the city actually stayed in the mountain.
10:02And, uh, oh, Peter's dead.
10:05And, uh, they tried to ride out the, uh, the calamity that befell there.
10:11And it didn't end up too good for them.
10:13So, there are great artifacts and treasures in this area.
10:17Uh, it's a part of the Alpha Zero, uh, map.
10:22And, uh, it is an open world dungeon.
10:25So, as you can see, the monsters here are pretty strong.
10:27Intended for a party, obviously.
10:33Oh, nice, nice ice sheet.
10:40Alright, you know what?
10:42We need to approach this.
10:43Did everybody die?
10:44We need to approach this area with respect.
10:46Let's move out to the hall again.
10:48Respect for the dead.
10:49We need to, we need to be respectful of the difficulty level.
10:56That is here.
10:58Hey, I haven't died yet, Game King.
11:00I've, I've, I've lived.
11:03It's the cape that protects me.
11:07Uh, should we jump across?
11:10Let's jump across.
11:11And we'll, we'll take the center area.
11:17Me and Alex are making our way back.
11:19Oh, okay.
11:22Alright, cool.
11:22Cool, cool, cool.
11:25Those are some bad stairs.
11:27Yes, Zitch, those are bad stairs.
11:31Those are bad stairs.
11:33Alright, cool.
11:33We should be safer here.
11:35Where's, uh, Jeff?
11:37Sorry, I died again.
11:39What a treacherous dungeon.
11:41You know what?
11:42We might have to put on some, uh,
11:45might have to put on some armor.
11:48Some, you know what I'm talking about.
11:49No, we can do this.
11:50We can do this.
11:50I'm ahead of you.
11:51I'm way ahead of you.
11:55Oh, no.
11:56Where, where's the boss in this dungeon?
11:58The boss is this way to, to our, north?
12:02Alright, I'm thinking of the, uh, like, you know,
12:05cut off the snake's head.
12:07Yeah, I don't know if that'll help, but we can try.
12:10Oh, I see, I see a dude in there that's pretty big.
12:29Oh, no.
12:31One at a time, guys.
12:33One at a time.
12:33Here, let me try to pull one.
12:35Hold on, hold on.
12:36Hold on.
12:37I'm going to try that.
12:40I'm getting this echo.
12:41Okay, I got the echo.
12:43Oh, I got the echo.
12:45Yeah, I got him.
12:45I definitely got him.
12:47And he's, he's getting, oh, God.
12:49I, alright, there we go.
12:52Try to pull him out.
12:52Everybody just ran away.
12:57Nice.
12:58Very well.
12:59Very good.
13:01Did Jeff die again?
13:02Okay.
13:03Yes, I died.
13:04How did she die?
13:06Alright.
13:07Everybody ran away.
13:09I was pulling him out to us.
13:12Let me see if I can grab the, uh, oh, no, wait, wait.
13:15We got an archer.
13:23I got him.
13:24Got him hated.
13:30Oh, I, you, oh, no.
13:33No, no, no.
13:35What's happening?
13:38Oh, I died.
13:42Both tanks are down.
13:43Oh, I died.
13:43Too many healers down.
13:45Oh, no.
13:56All right, I'm going to respawn.
13:57All right, I'll respawn with you and run back.
14:03Maybe we did, so the party wiped.
14:04We should probably, let's, let's start over.
14:07Regroup.
14:08Okay, welcome to the dungeon.
14:11Welcome, everybody.
14:12We're going to be running through.
14:14Keep all hands and feet inside the, uh, the party, please.
14:18I like the, uh, the two-hander, uh, Peter.
14:21Looks good.
14:23It didn't help me much in there, but I tried my best.
14:30All right, um, Lou, why don't we answer some questions as we just kill some monsters, some
14:35solitary single monsters.
14:38Um, so an angry lemon, this is from the forums, asks, uh, or says, I'm curious about the stealth
14:44system.
14:45Let's play that, let's say there's a player using the stealth skill in front of me.
14:49Will I be able to spot him if I look carefully at my screen, or do I need the skill
14:52to spot
14:53him?
14:56Um, good question.
14:59I'm sorry, I was focusing on killing this thing.
15:01It's okay.
15:02Would you like to take that one?
15:04Um, yeah, so it's a little bit of both.
15:06Um, I think we're going to go for kind of like a pseudo-Predator kind of style stealth.
15:10So if you're paying attention to what's going on, um, there will be indicators that will
15:14help you to kind of feel out where a stealth person might be.
15:18Um, but then also, uh, classes like the Ranger will have tracking abilities that'll help also
15:24in that, um, it'll make it a little bit more, um, apparent.
15:28It'll be always important to have, uh, a Ranger or something like a Ranger in your party to, to
15:33make sure you're protected from the stealth side of things.
15:38And, of course, that's all, like, uh, build-based kind of thing, so not all Rangers will be good
15:44at detecting stealth, but, um, some Rangers will be.
15:51Steven's ahead of the party.
15:52I know, I'm sorry.
15:53I just wanted to pull the boss.
15:54He pulled the whole room.
15:57Oh, my gosh.
16:00Uh, oh, no.
16:02Oh, the boss.
16:03What have we done?
16:04What have we done?
16:08Oh, he leashed.
16:09We're good.
16:15No!
16:16I was just pressing my ultimate defense.
16:23I think I was switching to a bow, I'm not dealing with melee, with the way we're pulling monsters right
16:27now.
16:27I switched to a bow, too.
16:30Oh, the two tags have bows, all right.
16:34Oh, my gosh.
16:35Um, nsheffle asks, uh, what steps are being taken to identify duplicated items, remove them
16:41from the game, and to deal with those who exploit bug mechanics to duplicate items on a large scale?
16:47Um, duplication is not the only kind of exploit that we're looking at now.
16:50We're looking at all sorts of different exploits, and we're actually building the game around that idea.
16:54I think we've said this before, but, um, I think it's always good to repeat it, um,
16:58and let people know exactly how serious we're taking this.
17:04Uh, people who are caught duplicating items will suffer pretty severe consequences.
17:09Um, it's as severe as, uh, permanent ban from the game?
17:16Wait, I didn't hear that.
17:18Oh, sorry, I said, anybody caught duplicating items or cheating in that way is going to be banned from the
17:23game, absolutely.
17:24And we do have, we have metrics and, uh, systems in place to make sure that that's quickly caught and
17:28dealt with.
17:30In addition, uh, one other thing, ooh.
17:39Oh my gosh.
17:42Don't jinx us.
17:43Don't, don't stand in the, in the weird fire.
17:54We've done it.
17:55Hey guys, we just, we've lost.
17:55Mission accomplished, boys.
17:58Mission accomplished.
17:59I'm so proud of us.
18:01Oh, they're coming back.
18:03Why won't they die?
18:08Alright, uh, what other questions we got?
18:15After playing other large-scale PvP games, item two, oh, this is actually the same quest, you have just more
18:21stuff, so never mind.
18:22Um, oh, hey, I got a quest.
18:25Uh, Kill Sorrow's Hunger.
18:26Oh, we just leveled up the node.
18:27Oh, we just leveled up the node, then.
18:28Yeah, I think so.
18:30Nice.
18:31Should we go check it out?
18:32Which one is it?
18:32Is it the forest node?
18:34I'm not entirely sure.
18:35I think it's probably the forest node.
18:39Are you guys all playing humans?
18:41I'm playing an elf right now.
18:43Oh, wait, no, I'm playing humans.
18:44Yeah, I'm a human.
18:49Let's go to, let's go to the, actually, let's, like, actually.
18:54Hold on.
18:57Let's go check out this area.
18:59Alright, sorry, what was the question, Jeff?
19:01Uh, this one is about caravans.
19:04Uh, most, uh, 69 says, uh, do caravans scale up and down in relation to the node which launches
19:11them?
19:11So I think he's talking about the quest, uh, versions, uh, the kind of node-based ones,
19:16not the player-created ones.
19:17Um, for example, does a city caravan have more guards?
19:20Is it faster?
19:21Can it carry more goods?
19:22Are the horses of a computer than, say, like, a town caravan?
19:25Um, and the answer to that is, um, yes, they will.
19:37Um, again, there's two different types of caravans.
19:40Um, player-created ones will kind of really just depend on what the players are doing,
19:45but for the ones that are launched by the city or the town themselves, uh, they will upgrade,
19:49um, as the node upgrades, too.
19:53I love this dungeon.
19:55Isn't it cool?
19:56Yeah, this is really great.
19:57Michael Bacon really knocked it out of the park.
19:59Michael Bacon did a great job.
20:02It's actually, I'm concerned of my movement.
20:04Peter, you better be careful with jumping.
20:07That was a bold move, Cotton.
20:18Oh, I've gotten some drops in here.
20:20I got a, uh, I got some dust.
20:23Oh, a shield!
20:25Oh, yeah!
20:26Got a shield.
20:33I can do a shield throw now.
20:34I'm really concerned to, like, move to the side of anybody.
20:42There are no railings.
20:44That's right.
20:45Yeah, we need to put, like, bumpers on the edges.
20:48No, that's part of the dungeon.
20:49I know, but just for me.
20:50Just gotta believe.
20:51There should be a GM bumper.
20:54There should be a GM bumper.
21:05So, guys, I just want to impress upon you
21:08if you don't already recognize this.
21:12But, uh, I mean,
21:14the Kickstarter that we did ended in June.
21:18And, uh,
21:20this AlphaZero began December of the same year.
21:24Now,
21:25you know, I don't want to name any names,
21:27but comparatively, I think,
21:28to other Kickstarter MMO projects,
21:30this is, uh,
21:32this is probably unheard of
21:35to have this level of testing going on
21:39this such short,
21:40such shortly after.
21:42And I honestly...
21:44I mean, not just the...
21:55has done an amazing job.
21:59I mean, just an absolute amazing job.
22:09Perhaps we should...
22:10You know, this dungeon seems, um,
22:13beyond...
22:14beyond us.
22:16I feel like we're doing really good now.
22:18I think we got in the groove.
22:19We did well there.
22:19Okay, fine.
22:20Let's progress.
22:21How do we...
22:21Can we go downstairs?
22:23Can we go to the downstairs area?
22:25Let's go downstairs a little bit.
22:26No, we can't go to the downstairs area.
22:27Oh.
22:28Oh, no.
22:29How sad.
22:30Can I just test it real quick?
22:31I just want to jump down.
22:32I mean, if you want to jump down there,
22:33go for it.
22:34All right.
22:34I need to find the right space
22:35to, like, jump down.
22:38Uh...
22:39These all look...
22:41These all look fatal.
22:44All of these areas look a little fatal.
22:46Oh, I'm so concerned.
22:47Should I jump?
22:48Should I jump down?
22:49Yeah, sure.
22:50No, no, no.
22:52Where did you go?
22:54Oh, I see your life went to zero.
22:57Here, hold on.
22:58I think I got it.
22:59I got it.
22:59I got it.
23:01Oh.
23:01No, no, no, no, no.
23:03No.
23:03No!
23:03Oh.
23:05Well, that didn't work.
23:07Thanks for leaving us.
23:09I'll be back.
23:13I'll be back.
23:15Oh, we found Alexi.
23:17Hey.
23:18What's up, Alex?
23:19Where'd you go like that?
23:21Guys, I'm gonna...
23:22I think the...
23:26Somebody's like,
23:27that was so satisfying.
23:30Thanks, Blue Midget.
23:31I appreciate that.
23:34I'm gonna run outside, actually.
23:36I wanna...
23:37I feel like there's something out there calling my name.
23:44I feel there's something out here.
23:49Can we...
23:50Can we explore this uncharted land?
23:54Of course we can.
23:56The whole world is ours to consume.
23:59Let us do this.
24:01Alright, what other questions have we got?
24:02I was getting distracted by all the action in that dungeon,
24:05that I wasn't really paying attention to the questions.
24:07I was having a really hard time, too.
24:09I'm sorry.
24:19There will be diminishing returns on crowd control, actually.
24:24And that is something...
24:26Obviously, those diminishing returns and how they work
24:27is something we're gonna be testing in alphas and betas.
24:30I was about to say alphas and zeros.
24:32Alphas and betas.
24:35But yes, there is intended to be diminishing returns.
24:37We don't want, you know, in PvP or in PvE,
24:41any scenario that's gonna result in, like, stun locking
24:43and stuff like that.
24:46Because it's just...
24:46It's not strategic.
24:47It's not fun.
24:49For either party, it gets a little dull.
24:51I think we found a bandit camp.
24:55This is a bandit camp.
24:57Very cool.
24:58We should go find Sorrow's Hunger.
25:03Let's hope that it is the forest node that leveled up.
25:05I am not sure if the forest node is where that dungeon belongs.
25:09Well, I saw when you guys were fighting in that dungeon a little earlier.
25:13It said that an encampment had formed in the forest node.
25:16So, I think it is the forest node.
25:18Oh, then that must be what it is.
25:21Another question, which I think is a really good one.
25:23Mick Stackerson.
25:25What will be the incentives for keeping a node leveled
25:28after being content associated with it?
25:30Why won't we want to siege down our own node
25:32to gain access to new stuff?
25:34Will we lose access to rare resources
25:36associated with that node or something?
25:40That's a good question.
25:42And the answer is that
25:44nodes, as they develop,
25:46unlock additional services,
25:48features, progression of buildings in the node,
25:52a lot of things that are beneficial
25:53to citizens of that node
25:55or players who may make a home or freehold in that area.
26:00Obviously, if the node is destroyed,
26:02those advancements are lost.
26:04Additionally, something that we'll touch on in a future blog
26:07is our relic system
26:09that I won't go into too much detail here,
26:11but relics are achievements for the node
26:13that unlock over time
26:16and allow the ability
26:18to craft specific legendary types of items
26:21and or progress in specific legendary quest lines.
26:24So not only does a node's development and location
26:27determine spawns and access to dungeons and quest lines,
26:31but its advancement over time
26:33also unlocks further features.
26:37Yeah, so in other words,
26:38there's a lot of push-pull
26:39between wanting to raise a node
26:43and wanting to kind of maintain it.
26:45And we really want the people
26:46who call that node home
26:47to want to maintain it.
26:49So there's going to be plenty of stuff
26:50for people to call home
26:52and want to defend it.
26:56Gosh, these monsters are so much easier.
27:00They are.
27:01It's almost like killing solo monsters
27:03with a party is easier than a dungeon.
27:07Oh, hey, we found the node.
27:09Excuse me.
27:10My node.
27:11It's a village.
27:12It is a village stage.
27:14I'm going to guess that Sorrow's Hunger
27:16probably has been murdering
27:18all the NPCs inside of this town.
27:20It's definitely possible.
27:23I mean, I hope not,
27:24but it's definitely possible.
27:25It would be unfortunate.
27:27So one of the other interesting things
27:28that I know many of you
27:29have probably heard this before,
27:30but as nodes advance,
27:32events get triggered
27:33and if players do not respond
27:35to these events,
27:36they can severely disable your cities,
27:40such as Sorrow's Hunger,
27:42which you're probably about to see here
27:43in a second,
27:44is this rampaging monster
27:47that has been summoned
27:48by the activity of players
27:49in this area
27:50and has found this point of civilization
27:52and it doesn't like that.
27:55So.
28:00Well, so far so good.
28:01So I guess most of us are human
28:03because this node populated
28:04as a human node.
28:12Did the good citizens
28:13of this village fight off Sorrow's Hunger?
28:18It's definitely possible.
28:20Is it possible?
28:22Not likely, but it's possible.
28:30Where might he be?
28:31He's hiding.
28:32Oh no, he's over here.
28:33Uh oh.
28:34He's eating people.
28:35Oh no.
28:37The horror.
28:39The savagery.
28:42Actually, he's having some problems.
28:44Might be better if we just, uh...
28:46Oh, you can always nuke him.
28:50What is he doing?
28:53He got stuck in the ground.
29:02Oh, I see.
29:05It's concerning.
29:07He might spawn again, though.
29:12I believe
29:13I believe his rampaging
29:15has not
29:16been completed.
29:19I think it might be complete.
29:21Oh.
29:21It might be completed.
29:26Uh oh.
29:28I hear a screen truck music.
29:29What happened?
29:31I can't hear you, Alex.
29:32Dimensional, um...
29:34Do you want to show off
29:35the elf version of this?
29:36Oh yeah, let's see the elf.
29:37Okay.
29:38So guys, remember how we were
29:39discussing early on
29:40that, um,
29:42the...
29:44the...
29:44races of players
29:46that, uh,
29:47contribute to a node's advancement
29:49determines the, uh,
29:50quest lines that are populated,
29:52the architecture,
29:53a lot of different things.
29:55Now you can see it just changed.
29:56Oh, oh, boop, boop, boop.
29:57Let's get him.
29:58Let's get him.
29:59There he goes.
30:01I hated him.
30:08Uh, this...
30:09this just...
30:10this node just got...
30:10Oh, nice.
30:11He tripped him.
30:16Uh, this node now
30:17is populated into an elven node.
30:19We'll go through it in a second.
30:28Remember, watch out for the
30:29breath attack.
30:29No!
30:30No!
30:32No!
30:41I got my bubble.
30:43I got my bubble.
31:08Yay!
31:09We've defeated
31:10Sarazhanga.
31:12All right, let's check out
31:13the elven city.
31:16So, Alex did a...
31:18Because we're all human,
31:19Alex added a bunch of
31:21experience for elves
31:23and, uh, switched up the node.
31:26So you can see the architecture's
31:27changed, quest lines will be different.
31:30layout's changed.
31:31Yep.
31:38Steven.
31:39I know.
31:39I can hear it.
31:40I can't believe it.
31:42I wish I could bring my microphone
31:43out there so you can really hear it.
31:45Just cue your mic the entire time.
31:46The stream will hear it.
31:48Almost out the door.
31:49He'll be there for another few minutes.
31:51You guys hear that?
31:52Does everybody hear that?
31:55Do you know what that is?
31:56He's got a new mix-up, too.
31:59Can you hear it through my mic?
32:02That is the ice cream truck.
32:06Oh, man.
32:08All right.
32:09What are we...
32:10Let's go, uh...
32:12I love the...
32:14I love the...
32:15Don't move the ice cream truck.
32:15Can't see you.
32:16It's like a T-Rex.
32:18I can see the...
32:19I can see the ripples
32:20in the water on my desk.
32:25We can go check out
32:26another dungeon.
32:27Yeah, let's check out
32:27a different dungeon.
32:30Hang on.
32:31I think Bacon's dungeon
32:32was just so powerful.
32:45Oh, let me go...
32:46I'm going to check out the...
32:48Well, you go find that dungeon.
32:49You can just summon me.
32:50I'm going to check out
32:51this area over here.
32:52All right.
32:53Alexi, do you know where it is?
32:56Guys, so...
32:57This is so awesome.
32:58When...
32:59When the, uh...
33:01Harvesting...
33:02The Gatherables
33:02are put into the world,
33:04you'll see these little, like, flowers.
33:07There will be...
33:09Harvestables
33:09that kind of look like
33:11these flowers here.
33:12Now, the name tag above the flowers
33:13you won't see.
33:14That'll be occluded.
33:16but...
33:16When you get close to it,
33:18our favorite little critter
33:20will pop out.
33:21Oh!
33:21There he is.
33:28I'm so sorry.
33:29I have to do this to you.
33:32I love how his name
33:34is totally normal, flower.
33:36It's totally normal.
33:37It's completely normal.
33:44What other questions we got, Jeff?
33:46Um...
33:47We've got...
33:48Uh...
33:49Okay.
33:49Uh...
33:49From Eryon...
33:50Eryon...
33:51Eryon...
33:52Eryon...
33:52Eryon...
33:53Eryon.
33:54Uh...
33:54My question to you is
33:55how much of your vision
33:56will you remain true to
33:58and how much will you change
33:59to satisfy a player base?
34:01But on your forums,
34:02and there are many people
34:02ranting about the same things
34:03they complain about
34:04when every other game comes out,
34:06uh...
34:06Trying to make it like
34:07that other game
34:08we all know
34:08but won't mention.
34:10Wow.
34:11Oh, wait.
34:12Whoops.
34:14Um...
34:14The answer to that question is
34:17I will stay 100% true
34:19to my vision.
34:21Um...
34:21And, uh...
34:22Obviously, player feedback
34:23is important.
34:25And, you know,
34:26the vision here is
34:28is to create
34:29principles,
34:30ideals,
34:31uh...
34:33Specific game design
34:34is...
34:35It is beneficial
34:36for us to get
34:37player feedback
34:37because ultimately
34:38you know,
34:39our player base
34:40is what's going to be
34:41playing the game
34:41we make.
34:43Um...
34:43So, uh...
34:45That's why we're going
34:45through many different phases
34:46of alpha and beta testing.
34:55Have I gotten any
34:55weapon drops yet?
34:58I have.
34:59I haven't gotten
35:00any weapon drops.
35:05I wish I'd get that, uh...
35:07tier-hander
35:08that Peter has.
35:13I think I did actually
35:14get it from trolls.
35:21That's weird.
35:23My client's a little
35:24strange.
35:24I'm going to restart
35:25real quick.
35:25Hold on.
35:27Okay.
35:36Oops.
35:37Um...
35:37A question from
35:38Discord is,
35:39uh...
35:39Looking forward
35:40to the animal
35:40husbandry system.
35:41Will breeding be
35:43only for cosmetics
35:44or will there be
35:45mount abilities
35:45to breed for
35:46like higher jumping,
35:48stamina,
35:48move speed,
35:49or agility?
35:52Uh...
35:52Breeding will actually,
35:54uh...
35:55change the stats
35:56of the mount
35:57that you breed.
36:00So,
36:00it will affect
36:01those different things
36:02and, uh...
36:03you can get, uh...
36:04better mounts
36:05through, uh...
36:06the animal husbandry
36:07uh...
36:08profession.
36:10Yeah.
36:11So, it's definitely
36:11not going to be
36:12just cosmetic.
36:13There's going to be
36:14actual gameplay
36:14purpose for it.
36:19Sorry, guys.
36:20I'm restarting.
36:21Yes.
36:22The screen is black.
36:24Give me one second.
36:24It's coming up.
36:25Okay.
36:26You guys see here
36:27the loading screen.
36:30Uh...
36:31Just to give you
36:32some background
36:33on that,
36:34one of the
36:35networking bugs
36:36we encountered
36:36that we fixed
36:37was some players
36:40were getting stuck
36:40at the windmill.
36:42So, uh...
36:43One of our artists,
36:44um...
36:45Ryan and Tristan,
36:47uh...
36:47they turned
36:48the windmill
36:49into a boss
36:49monster,
36:50uh...
36:51since people
36:51were getting stuck
36:51on it.
37:06Uh...
37:07Alright, I'm back.
37:09Sorry.
37:09Can you invite me?
37:11Sure.
37:12Looking for you.
37:17I'm right in front of you.
37:19You should have an invite.
37:20So, this is, uh...
37:22This is another dungeon.
37:23Uh...
37:24This dungeon was, um...
37:26made by Javier.
37:29And, um...
37:29I think the monsters
37:31are a little bit
37:31more manageable here.
37:33Yeah, they're not the same
37:35power level
37:35as the other dungeon.
37:43Nice.
37:49Um...
37:50A question from
37:51Carl Stevenson is, uh...
37:53When you augment
37:54your class's abilities,
37:55will you be able to
37:56choose from multiple
37:56augments,
37:57or is there only
37:58one augment per ability?
38:00Uh...
38:01Each...
38:01So, the augment tree
38:03is determined
38:03by your secondary
38:04class choice.
38:06Each secondary
38:07class choice
38:08will have a, uh...
38:09base minimum
38:10of four
38:12at this time
38:13we'll be testing this
38:14but they have
38:14four, uh...
38:16augment choices.
38:17So, we'll turn the volume down.
38:20Let me get reset.
38:27There we go.
38:28Uh, we'll have four
38:29augment choices.
38:30So, that's...
38:31There's that.
38:34There's also, um,
38:35a Discord channel
38:36if you want to look
38:37through those, uh, Jeff.
38:38Yeah, I'm starting
38:39to look through those now.
38:50This is a question
38:51from Vintage.
38:52Uh, first off,
38:53love you guys,
38:53plain and simple.
38:54We love you too.
38:55Um, question though
38:56concerning group content.
38:58I know Alpha
38:58is not the example
38:59to base off of
39:00but the open world
39:01doesn't seem suited
39:01for group content at all
39:02or it's easy for groups
39:04to rampage through them.
39:05Where there'll be
39:06large areas
39:07where groups
39:07will find a challenge,
39:08will dungeons
39:09have room for multiple groups
39:10to get lost in
39:10and or contest?
39:12Absolutely.
39:13Uh, there will be
39:14and I would be careful
39:15as we show,
39:17you know,
39:17because we have
39:18such a transparent
39:19and open development,
39:20I'd be careful
39:21to read into anything
39:22you're seeing here
39:22with regards to content.
39:24Our test for Alpha Zero,
39:26this pre-alpha test
39:27was not a content test.
39:29It was a,
39:30mostly technical test.
39:34Yeah,
39:35and none of this stuff
39:35is tuned really
39:36for groups in the overworld.
39:37We wanted people
39:38who were coming in to test
39:39to actually be able
39:40to kind of do stuff solo.
39:41Um,
39:42so that's not what
39:42it was really built for.
39:44Um,
39:44all the group content
39:45right now
39:45is just in our dungeons.
39:47Um,
39:48and,
39:48uh,
39:48that's totally going to change
39:50when we go live.
39:51Um,
39:52there will be plenty
39:53of places
39:54in the open world
39:55for groups
39:55to kind of tackle
39:57and,
39:57uh,
39:58experience
39:58and explore together.
39:59so,
39:59don't you worry about that.
40:12I love the little bunny run.
40:14Vile Beastie.
40:31This is from
40:32Tiri in Discord.
40:33Um,
40:34is the dungeon
40:34from the playthrough
40:35instanced or open world?
40:39That dungeon
40:40was open world.
40:41All dungeons
40:41in AlphaZera
40:42are open world.
40:43Yeah,
40:44all these things
40:44are multi-groups
40:46if you want it to be.
40:56Oh,
40:56there's a hole.
40:57I just found a hole here.
41:00I,
41:01I almost backed up
41:02into this hole.
41:06Should we go down the hole?
41:08I think we need to.
41:09Oof.
41:10This is scary.
41:14Oh god.
41:15Oh god.
41:16Okay,
41:16we're good.
41:18I don't think we are.
41:18We don't have,
41:19we don't have fall damage
41:20in the game yet,
41:21so that's good.
41:30Yes,
41:31Lashipoo.
41:32Multiple groups
41:32will be able to run dungeons.
41:34Dungeons will be vast.
41:36They'll be very large.
41:37They'll be able to house
41:37multiple groups.
41:42This question is
41:43from Baz William Cars.
41:45Is there a way
41:46we can change
41:47or upgrade the roads
41:48so our caravans
41:49get the best
41:51and will there be
41:52HP for caravans
41:53so you need to repair them?
41:56The roads actually
41:57do upgrade
41:58as the nodes upgrade
42:00and then their connections
42:02are sort of
42:02based on
42:04what nodes
42:05are near them
42:06and are sort of
42:07connected to them
42:08in a trade route
42:09sense of way.
42:11So,
42:11different roads
42:12will offer
42:13different travel speeds
42:15for different caravans.
42:16You can kind of
42:17spec your caravan out
42:18to be an off-road vehicle
42:19or an on-road vehicle
42:20and that'll determine
42:20and sort of
42:21how quickly
42:22and what kind of routes
42:23you take
42:23when you're driving
42:24your caravan.
42:25So, yeah,
42:25there will be
42:26a road system
42:27that is in place
42:29when we launch.
42:51What other questions
42:52we got?
42:53I'm looking through.
42:59If any class
43:00can use any weapon,
43:01does that mean
43:02that the ranger
43:03has no bow-specific
43:04abilities?
43:05Asking for my
43:06inevitable
43:06two-handed warhammer
43:07ranger build.
43:09Nice.
43:10Nice.
43:12That was very funny.
43:14Some abilities
43:15will require
43:16a ranged weapon
43:18to be available.
43:24But some abilities
43:25won't.
43:25Correct.
43:26So, there will
43:27certainly be
43:27a place for your
43:28two-handed warhammer
43:30ranger build.
43:31That's kind of
43:32where we're going
43:33with the way
43:34the class system works.
43:35Absolutely.
43:36Similar to, like,
43:36the tank.
43:36The tank will have
43:37some shield-specific
43:39abilities,
43:39but they'll also
43:40have some
43:40specific abilities
43:42for two-handed weapons.
43:43So, it'll all
43:44really kind of
43:45depend on how
43:46you kit your
43:46class out
43:47for yourself.
43:55Oh, this has
43:56a bunch of
43:57little baby things.
43:58Why are we
43:58calling the babies?
44:01It's the broodmother's
44:02brood.
44:03These babies
44:04just wrecked me,
44:05so...
44:06Well,
44:06they shouldn't have
44:07entered their nest.
44:08Serves you right.
44:10That's fair.
44:16This is a question
44:17from Shalex.
44:18Will player housing
44:19be shared between
44:20all your characters?
44:21For example,
44:22if I already have
44:23a house freehold
44:23on one character,
44:24will my other
44:25characters be able
44:26to use that
44:26house freehold?
44:28Housing is
44:29account-based,
44:29yes.
44:33I need some heals.
44:34Where's my healer?
44:37Alex, heal.
44:39heal me.
44:47I think Alex is
44:49going to go find
44:50the Underrealm for
44:51us and pull us down
44:53there.
44:56Oh, I just heard
44:57yelling in here.
44:59Did you hear that?
45:01I did not hear that.
45:03Yeah, I heard
45:04somebody yelling in here.
45:06Was it the
45:07Wilhelm scream?
45:08No, it wasn't
45:09the Wilhelm scream.
45:11Okay, it was
45:12right in this area.
45:12Did everybody else
45:13hear that on the stream?
45:16I heard a scream.
45:19What was that?
45:22I don't know who
45:23was putting screams
45:24in our dungeons.
45:25Yeah, there's
45:26definitely, is there
45:27like a person we
45:28need to capture here
45:29or something?
45:32Let's look safe.
45:34Yeah, don't fall
45:35in.
45:37Yeah, you can
45:37spawn me.
45:38Or summon me.
45:39Summon me to the
45:40Dungeon, or the
45:41Underrealm.
45:45Sweet.
45:50And my party has
45:51abandoned me.
45:54Yay!
45:56Yeah, I heard
45:57somebody say help.
45:58I think Frostbite
45:58heard it too.
45:59Frostbite said he
46:00heard someone say
46:01help.
46:02That's really
46:03creepy.
46:04It's actually
46:05cool.
46:05Especially because
46:05I don't know
46:06about it.
46:07Maybe our new
46:08AI system has
46:09actually gained
46:11self-awareness.
46:11Gained sentience?
46:12Yeah.
46:13It wants to be
46:14let out.
46:16It knows we're
46:17on the stream.
46:20Now there are
46:21witnesses.
46:23So this is a
46:24question from
46:25Talon.
46:26Will cosmetics
46:27be separate
46:27costumes to the
46:28armor, or will
46:29it be skinned
46:30onto the armor?
46:33That's a good
46:34question.
46:35The way we're
46:36sort of picturing
46:37it is that you
46:39will have
46:40basically like a
46:42paper doll that
46:43you get to dress
46:44up and put your
46:45cosmetics on in
46:46separate slots from
46:46your actual armor.
46:48Then you could
46:48toggle that on or
46:49off depending on
46:50what your settings
46:51are.
46:53So you wouldn't
46:54be skinning like
46:54an actual specific
46:55piece of armor.
46:56You'd just be
46:56having it in a
46:57specific cosmetic
46:58slot.
47:21I love the
47:22emissives on the
47:23caps of these
47:24mushrooms.
47:38Yeah, we
47:39should do.
47:39We should leave
47:40party for the
47:41end of the
47:41stream and
47:43fight.
47:44Of course.
47:45each other.
47:51Question from
47:52Swordbrothers
47:53Sorios.
47:55Will we be
47:55able to share
47:56freeholds with
47:57another player if
47:57you and the
47:58other player
47:58desire to do
47:59so?
48:04That's something
48:04where we are
48:05currently discussing
48:07and we'll be
48:09testing in
48:09alpha.
48:12Very likely
48:13we'll do some
48:13kind of
48:13permission-based
48:14system and
48:16then sort of
48:17how you guys
48:18deal with
48:18taxes or
48:19whatever will
48:19have to be
48:19kind of a
48:20gentleman's
48:20agreement
48:20between you
48:21two.
48:22Let's have
48:24a...
48:25Okay, let's
48:26do this.
48:27We'll take
48:27some paces
48:28away, leave
48:29party, turn
48:30on PvP, and
48:31restrict it to
48:32the under
48:33realm.
48:35Single
48:35elimination.
48:37You die, you're
48:38out.
48:41Free for all,
48:42so ganging up
48:43is allowed.
48:45So last
48:45person standing
48:46wins?
48:47Yes, last
48:47person standing
48:48wins.
48:51All right,
48:51we'll see who
48:53the people in
48:53stream are
48:54rooting for.
48:55Hang on, I
48:56gotta hide here.
48:56Take your bets,
48:57but we don't
48:58condone betting,
48:59but if you
49:00wanted to take a
49:00virtual bet that
49:01doesn't include
49:01money, then
49:03you're welcome
49:03to do that.
49:04All right,
49:05leave party.
49:06control L for
49:07leave.
49:16Please don't.
49:16Please don't
49:17bully me.
49:21No, but
49:21seriously, don't
49:22bully me.
49:26Hey, and
49:27nobody is
49:28allowed to
49:28cheat.
49:29No cheating.
49:31No cheating.
49:31I'll take
49:32off my armor.
49:32Yeah, take
49:33off your armor.
49:34Oh, wait,
49:34we're not allowed
49:35to use it?
49:36No, you're not
49:36allowed to use
49:37that, that's
49:37cheating.
49:45All right, Alex,
49:46let us know when
49:47PVP is activated.
49:48It's toggled.
49:49It's toggled?
49:50All right.
49:52Let it begin.
50:03Can we just put the
50:04PVP flag on
50:05Steven?
50:06What?
50:08We're not
50:09ganging up,
50:09we said.
50:11No, you said.
50:12No.
50:13Yeah.
50:14Wait, yes,
50:15I didn't see
50:16that.
50:19I hear
50:19fighting.
50:25I hear
50:25some fighting
50:26over here.
50:40Oh, I

50:43sorry.
50:44Stop it.
50:48Leave me alone.
50:51How are you
50:52so fast?
51:04No.
51:06Alex killed
51:06me.
51:07That wasn't
51:07fair.
51:09I died
51:09to mushrooms.
51:10You died
51:10to mushrooms.
51:11Peter, get
51:11him.

51:14Peter,
51:14avenge
51:15me.
51:17Oh, Alex.
51:18Alex won.
51:19I think Alex
51:20cheated.
51:21I think he did
51:22too.
51:23Alex, were you
51:23cheating?
51:24No.
51:25What's cheating?
51:26What is cheating?
51:28That's right.
51:30That was magic.
51:32That was
51:32magic.
51:33It was a skill.
51:35It was a magical
51:36skill.
51:36thing.
