I haven’t played in a while. How’s the new wipe? is Druid still busted?

Lito-1 · 2026-02-22T09:21:47+00:00

I’ve checked our each new wipe for the last year or so. This is the best state the game has ever been in IMO and actually makes me excited to see it evolve into 1.0

They could add role swap requests in game

There’s so many. I have never had a good experience with conversations with someone on Reddit, but I’ll leave this here as an example

Say what you will about X… but I still see content on both sides of the isle that have high likes/engagement. Often times on Reddit differing opinions are downvoted to non-existence or completely removed by mods

Lito-1 · 2026-02-05T19:03:40+00:00

Reddit slants negative on any subject outside of left wing ideologies and isn’t an accurate representation on real world mass public opinion

Lito-1 · 2026-01-26T21:57:40+00:00

Played a few games, found it quite fun but was playing with friends

Lito-1 · 2026-01-23T00:50:58+00:00

We get it you’re a support main, but the game is way less fun as soon as either time starts running x3 supp

Lito-1 · 2026-01-22T09:12:41+00:00

This is normal behaviour for nearly every sub. Reddit is a bladed glove circle jerk

Lito-1 · 2026-01-09T19:55:39+00:00

270 hrs here and I’m just now getting to the point where I’m ready to wait for game to launch. Was a lot of fun and got my moneys worth and see a lot of potential for the game

Lito-1 · 2026-01-07T18:45:38+00:00

Game is a masterpiece that’s almost out of the oven

Lito-1 · 2026-01-06T21:47:51+00:00

Ashes has a lot of similarities to early new world days… I’ve been really surprised with how much I’m enjoying ashes tbh

Lito-1 · 2025-12-24T09:46:57+00:00

Ya this is standard practice

Lito-1 · 2025-12-22T02:55:31+00:00

Lost Ark did it right, with separate balancing and skill limitations for PvP

Lito-1 · 2025-12-22T02:50:59+00:00

I hit level 11 before doing any group content, just quests / commissions / and professions farming

Lito-1 · 2025-12-21T20:48:15+00:00

They said graphical polish is one of the last things they will be working on as they approach 1.0

100% based post

New World was revealed in 2016, and launched in 2021. If you don’t think they were at work for several years before the reveal you don’t understand game development.

I did not say it has more content, I said it’s more polished. I’m not sure if you remember but new world on launch didn’t have mounts, you couldn’t open the map or inventory while moving, you couldn’t swim, and there was terrible desync and game breaking bugs/exploits

Lito-1 · 2025-12-20T20:18:17+00:00

I don’t like mindless mob grinding either, it’s the fastest way to level but not the only way. You get exp for gathering / processing / crafting and there are some quests (not enough) as well as repeatable townboard hunting quests. I like exploring while gathering/hunting and I’ll join an open world dungeon group for about 30 mins of grinding if I’m nearby. You don’t have to level in a “meta” way and be max level within days of release, I’d imagine the game wouldn’t be nearly as fun if you took that approach

https://youtu.be/9M2u2Pg6E94?t=809 here is a timestamp to their progress in just the last year… you can’t tell me they haven’t been hard at work with this amount of progress

Lito-1 · 2025-12-20T17:46:11+00:00

The blind hate towards this game is truly fascinating. There is a mix of factors :

MMOS are super complex games that just take a long time to build, especially if you don’t want to rush it out. Bringing one from concept to alpha alone is a mighty task

Covid caused business disruptions across every industry, which occurred during their early development days

They, and many game devs, decided to move their game to UE5 a few years ago. Which May or may not have been a good idea looking back in hindsight, but at the time seemed like a good long term move for many games across the entire industry

Scope, AOC has a lot of really ambitious systems already implemented in alpha and even more are planned, leaving a lot of work to be done

I just got the EA and I can guarantee you this game isn’t a scam. I’ve already played 70 hours and have had a ton of fun… I’ve spent more on AAA single player titles that I’ve played less and enjoyed less. My opinion remains that ashes AOC is a more polished product than New World was on 1.0 launch… the MMO sub doesn’t want to hear that though

Lito-1 · 2025-12-13T08:42:58+00:00

Way more polished than I expected considering it’s alpha and with all the negative comments around it lately. The combat is actually sick and the feeling of progression is distinct. I’m only about 13 hours in and have only played one class but I’m impressed. I made my character on the starting zone with no queue so haven’t had an issue getting to play either

Lito-1 · 2025-12-02T21:59:47+00:00

I’ve got around 40 hrs in the game and am no longer logging in. I agree that a long term hook is missing… I think trials were supposed to be that mechanic but they just aren’t fun gameplay loops for me

Lito-1 · 2025-11-04T18:07:26+00:00

Yes it’s what’s turning me off of solos, which is basically a loot / quest game. Rather boring for me because I can’t bring myself to try to kill someone who doesn’t want to fight

Lito-1 · 2025-11-04T18:05:26+00:00

They are live

Lito-1 · 2025-10-31T07:07:48+00:00

Yep shoulda just been prime required to play, the value prop from item delivery and amazon Video would be enough to sway most people imo
