That’s kind of crazy. I’m used to just getting vague glimpses and written updates about it, so I forgot that I’m gonna be able to see it in action this month until I told my friend about it.
Like, shoot, we get to play this game?
Anyone else felt like that?
Stop I thought this only happened to me! I literally hate the feeling soo much it angers me, it feels like they’re giving you some sort of “chance” to play it or its as if its some sort of privilege on the courtesy of vetex. Idek how to explain it but I hate the feeling of being ALLOWED just barely to do something, like a jewelry saying you can only touch the jewelry on really picky conditions, its complicated.
Havent played operators either but ive capped ryan ross (financier) way too many times, hope i can still pull the thumper + deagle combo on the protected door whenever operators is finished
Also back to the topic, yeah its weird knowing its really close, im still preparing files but it feels weird considering how long the trello logs have been, it almost reads like drunken rambling and im still not mentally prepared for FR yet. The hype for it has been steadily taking over my mind with each patch notes and there still is not a release date (even though the speculated release date is extremely likely)
I have dropped the game for like 5 months so ı have not that kind of excitement but ı will play it like lifeless when it drops so ı get it only sad part is i will be realy busy for like 2 weeks and cannot prepare my file enough
I feel you bro, like, AO, even with its flaws, is a well developed game, or at least its going to be. Like, when it released on Early Access it didn’t have much, but over time, and with Vetex & Tech hiring more developers, the game began to be fleshed out a lot more, showing its true potential.
It doesn’t feel real to me either XD
Almost as crazy as it felt getting Early Access. I wonder what’ll be going through my mind when I open up the game?
The second I see full release come out I am taking 87 red bulls and waking up my comatose clan and one friend that plays AO to do a straight 45 day session (I am excited)
also yeah, I got the feeling of “man this is never gonna happen, vetex is gonna get hit by a car and die or some shit and we’re never gonna get FR” now that it’s drawing near I feel… weird? happy? Tired? high? hard to put my finger on it.
That is true, but I haven’t exactly seen anything that changes everything.
The game already has plenty of late-game content for someone who hasn’t gone and done it all already and not much has been done to assist the early game where many a newbie loses interest.
That is, aside from things that we don’t know a darn thing about, like the tutorial and enemy towers.
Yeah it really is kinda crazy that we get to play it so soon as well I’m so hyped December is gonna be so fire. Edit I should mention I’m not a tester, for the game so I actually haven’t played full release at all.
To me it sounds like something that could be either great or really bad.
I just feel like the game already has a good enough tutorial. Like, I prefer when a game has a tutorial like how Redwake is, where it teaches you about quests, combat, shops, and cooking in a natural way that doesn’t break the pacing or handhold or anything.
I’ve always imagined a proper AO tutorial taking place in a couple stages.
1: Protagonist before everything went wrong in their daily life leading to them getting captured.
(introduces cooking, spell creation, hunting, fishing, etc)
2: Protagonist escaping order facility. (introduces stealth and combat)
All in a hazy dream sequence sort of way.
Like talking to people that distinctly don’t have names or faces.
yay!
I feel like it’s not gonna be exactly like the Block Tales type of approach of adding a chapter 0 questline that teaches the game and explains the plot, since the plot begins with “I remember nothing”
