Did they make this area or is it a unity store asset they reskinned like Halnir

Ashbreathers raid boss is not bad

Honestly they need to repackage this game more like how survival games work. Let people run servers of their own, have a variety of rulesets, and let people hop around on their character to servers with matching rulesets perhaps. All kinds of ideas they could go with in this direction. It could actually work.

This a handful of buddies smashing dungeons game, it's never going to be a MMO.

How does that "work" exactly with a 5 year development cycle for 1 zone? Who is this post for exactly?

What do you mean 'made in 2018'. They have just been using unity store assets for character models and dungeons, with some reskinning. Afaik there arent making anything in the sense of 'designing'. I am not sure if ashbreathers follows this trend or is their own unique thing.

I always commented about how cool Halnirs was as a dungeon and that atleast they have a good dev / content designer on their team...and then someone linked me the unity store page that it was bought from.

Wait, so was it just the assets or the entire layout? Assets are whatever but if they literally copy/pasted a demo map lol

What difference does it make if it still takes 5-6 years to put a unity asset out?

From my limited understanding the dungeon assets and environment were purchased from the unity store and just did some reskinning and populated it. I am not sure if the map layout is one to one i would have to find it. The unity store cave dungeon i saw looked exactly like Halnirs with the same crystals and environment and everything. Open to being corrected on this.

You said they made it, i was just asking if they actually 'made it' as in designed it or not. It would be bad for it to take 5 years if they made it, it would be very very bad if it took 5 years to put a unity asset out.

I'm biased but I don't really have a problem with marketplace assets especially for an indie. The Pantheon team does have like... 30? People I think though and I tend to wonder what they actually do all day if they're not making their own assets and only have like 1 programmer

I recommend keeping the faith, the alternative is "modern" sterile slop

Both MnM and Ashes of creation are miles ahead of pantheon...the biggest problem with pantheon is that the alternatives are better now.

There was a window that lasted quite a few years where this wasn't the case but they dropped the ball. They can still pick it up, well see.

Hey...Faceless first individual guild to kill Tel'Daedras tonight on the red server after a week of attempts, 22 people. There was a coalition of guilds that got it down 20min before us with 60 people on a blue server.
