Ashes of Creation Alpha One - Let's Talk...
11With the verbal NDA lifted on Ashes of Creation, Saieno who has been testing Alpha One for the last three weeks answers questions Neiloch has about Ashes of Creation. Feel free to listen as a podcast, or watch as a video as there are video examples to go along with the discussion. To keep this as easily digestible as possible, most of the game development terms and explanations are discussed in basic examples to include as many people as possible.
Apologies for the mic quality, been a while since we've recorded any audio or videos. Feel free to ask questions in the comments below or on our Discord: https://discord.gg/VaKKrQn
