A better game balancing would be to encourage new characters interact with other new characters.
That means wealth and items should not flow from veteran accounts to new accounts, to ensure a good sense of progression based on what you collectively achieve.
If that would be done, new players and...
Years ago when I was naive and happy, looking for new games, somebody told me to create a Steam account.
I was shocked to see that small companies make games and call themselves "indie".
I had to come up with a "theory" to explain that: I told myself that developers who are really good and...
When I played, the game was close to ideal for me.
That means any change which makes it worse might bring more players :)
And the things which bothered me I am not going to post them publicly on the forum.
But I have to say that often I think I want a certain feature and I believe that if I get...
Please don't add bulletin boards there.
I see them as a cheap, immersion breaking feature.
A better approach would be to have a few NPCs exchanging things with players, not for gold but for services, services which can be performed only if they have the means to offer them.
Also make the NPCs...
I see this argument often used by PvE players to separate themselves from PvP.
If one turns some feature on or off for himself, it will impact the game-play of other nearby players.
I like this change. Please don't add them again ever.
I used bulletin boards in New World too and similar features in other games.
I would prefer to have guards nearby them, to be sure exiles and other bandits don't place some fake requests.

A quest mentioned a trader traveling between locations.
Make NPC traders with carts pulled by some strange creatures travel along the path and be attacked by the exiles or wild animals.
Make prices or even services depend on arrival...
Did the devs said anything about these features?
I never played UO and L2 but I see them mentioned on forums.
But I don't know how trading in L2 worked.
Also I hear SWG was good but at crafting.
What made the housing interesting in UO? Was it open world or instanced?
Soon Ashes of Creation will...

Unique Fantasy Setting
No quest hubs. No mini-maps. No railroads. Experience an ever-expanding world of adventure.
I think the "No quest hubs." part should be removed because NPCs in each city gives quests and now you shift even more toward quest play loop:
I see that it highlights the word "you" or "your"with red.
But sometime "your" is green: Bark Spider AVOIDS your Assailing Strike. Here "AVOIDS" was red.
I think the damage numbers or effects, whatever players want to see and compare easily should be highlighted and the color to indicate
green...
I would like to have an option to turn off the sound of flies near all those carcasses lying on the ground everywhere. It makes me think those are rotting and spreading disease and I try to stay away. But I cannot avoid them all the time.
