Basically only guild leaders and city owners will get a flying mount. There will be eggs that drop from bosses that you can hatch to get a flying mount for a limited time. If I remember correctly.

Yeah, I donāt think so
There certainly is an option, just dont fly.
Powerfull no , effective yes. If you dont like however it no one but yourself is forcing you to use it.
I can agree with this, however why introduce flying when you want it to be so open world PvP focused, i get that it will become prestigious but isnt there any other way than flying. I myself love flying and its one of the reasons i like WoW, and like i said i do plan on atleast trying AoC and like the systems, flying will not be a reason for why i will try/play it and seems completly arbitrary to put it into the game.

From what Iāve seen on youtube, itās mainly for large scale sieges, so that the attack/defend leaders can see the battlefield and direct the battle. Not sure how it will work out though.
Ok i kinda see the point now and it sounds cool in that manner and it makes sence.
In your opinion
Also itās in that game too, Except few people have it, So imagine if I had a flying mount in game but you didnāt, Thatās worse even if you donāt like flying.
Didnāt know what it was, just saw the video from lazy peon and it looks like a horrible game

People will get mad at the dumb systems such as only a tiny percentage of players being able to fly.
Sounds cool on paper, reality is it will be a rotation of the same people getting it. That is what always happens, look at the WoW classic PVP ranking or the gladiator cut offs. The rich will get richer in that game.
Iāve seen multiple clips of combat in the game, it looks boring. The community is also already beyond toxic from what I have experienced so far.
My final issue with the game, it is using ārealistic texturesā. They donāt work for MMO-RPGs. MMOās work so much better with ācartoonā and āsmoothā designs such as WoW, Wildstar, and FF14.
ESO and a ton of free to play MMOās use the realistic approach. It looks ugly during combat.
With my negative points said, I will play it. I hope it succeeds, I have a lot of bad things to say about WoW, iām not trying to be a fan boy for WoW although it likely comes across that way.
To leave my post with a positive note; I really like the class structure.
I donāt know the details on how it will work but I hope it works that you canāt reroll your base class but you can reroll your secondary class.
This is not necessary bad. The jedi profession in SWG was something like the before nge.
Having a game that entirely relies on players for activities and progression (not like in WoW but as a whole) is a game doomed to fail , simple as that
If reviews will be good i may try it some months after release. Highly doubt that though, canāt imagine someone is making better game than wow tbh.
Sadly I think this is one of those games were you want to be part of the hype. I donāt think it will age well like ESO and FF14.
Good for the developers, high day 1 sales, but bad for an MMO-RPG.
The beta community is already gate keeping the game. Iād not want to see that community after the surge of players leave and its those same like-minded people left festering on the game.
i think wow has been as soulless as any big corporation game byfar.
just absolute s*** show from story point, skill point, replay value and anything that goes to coruptions and azerites and garrisons.

Iāve been following AoC for years. It does look like a proper RPGā¦but do many have before it.
If it lives up to itās written hype then Iāll be happy.
I was hyped AF for Wildstar when it was still in development. Hardcore players thought of it as the new big thing, a WoW killer. Made by hardcore for hardcore.
Then it released and flopped hard. Its downfall was surprisingly quick.
I watched Asmongold videos with reactions to the dev interviews and itās looking really good from what they talk about. Big battles, heavy emphasis on many paths of character development, and a chad CEO that isnāt a stuck-up snob wearing an expensive suit. acting all corporatey and correctey. He actually dropped a few F bombs in the interview 
But this project is EXTREMELY ambitious. The history is littered with those that promised greatness and failed miserably. Some of them actually became decent (No Manās Sky), some of them remained in the graveyard forever.

W* was actually a really fun game, but the big problems were the attunements and the 40 men raids.
I think you did the wrong questions. the important question is: What can Blizzard learn from them because I donāt have time to play more than 1 MMO -_- I either play one or the otherā¦
Player Housing, Strongholds and Capitals, Player driven cities and constructed by players, where all resources are farmed by us?
An alternative to the lore that is forced down on us (Burn the damn tree or Burn the damn tree anyway, choice is yours)?
More Player choice, Less Blizzard control and direction?
Ridiculous amount of different classes?
PvP Caravans?
There is a lot of promised stuff. Which if they can deliver properly, and execute with the same quality level as Blizzardā¦ I donāt know
Much of what youāre suggesting implies making pvp core to the game, not a side activity. Player controlled towns imply players can fight for control. Resource gathering can only be fun if youāre allowed to mess with the resource gathering of enemy towns.
In ArcheAge caravans are the main way of making gold. You create the goods, at a severe gold investment on your end, then you carry that manually to its selling destination. The farther you go, the better the payout you get. But also itās much higher risk. You can sell at the enemy faction, but thereās pirates and also the enemy faction at sea, waiting to grab your loot. This creates high risk high reward pvp situations and basicallyā¦ an MMO that has pvp in the core of its progression and endgame cannot get boring. Because players become the content.

No way, Iāve been playing WoW since TBC - Patch 2.1
I have tried so many MMO, i always return to WoW.
It does not matter if WoWās expansion is good or trash.
The reason for that is because iāve put my heart into the game.
I feel like alotā¦ like ALOT peoples are Overhyped for Ashes, And sure good for them.
But i prob wont even try it. WoW is my MMO, no other MMO can replace WoW for me.
The only thing that would have me Quit wow, that is if i were to Die irl.
So yeah
Short Answer: NO i will not quit wow for Ashes
Yes i have no interest in Ashes, but good for those thatās looking forward to Ashes.

It has Dwarfs that got my attention other than that it looks just like new world or eso to me painfully generic.
Also i am not that fond of starting new mmo again AoC would really have to blow me away with something awesome to make me quit wow.
As of yet i have not seen anything at all that makes me want to invest my time in it.
