Dawnbreaker constellation in Alpha-2.[1]

Constellations and Ashes of Creation actually have a very relevant purpose across a whole host of different game systems, including on the narrative side, on mechanics like acquiring certain types of relics for your node, on empowering certain abilities and/or items that you have access to; and it is of course relevant that I am playing as a Vek. Vek as many of you may know do worship and obviously study the stars.[1]Steven Sharif

The Great San'dal constellation in Alpha-2.[2]

I believe the ancient scholars of the Vek refer to it as the Great San'dal.[3]Steven Sharif</blockquote

There are constellations and multiple moons in the night sky of Verra.[4][1][5]

  • Constellations and moons rotate and change throughout the night.[6]
Constellations, as you could see with the sky, some of those moons being in different positions. They do rotate and change throughout the night. That is the intent for them; and of course they have wide application across a number of systems that are relevant, including story and narrative and the acquisition of certain types of things in the game.[6]Steven Sharif
  • Constellations may only be seen at certain times at specific locations.[7]
The Constellation system is another predicate system. And when I say it's a predicate system, it means that certain conditions will yield certain constellations being available to pursue, discover and achieve. And they span the realm of interfacing across adventuring level, artisanship, node, relics, policies. There's a lot of different things that constellations can touch because at its essence, it is a predicate system. Now, once players have achieved identifying a certain location that yields a constellation, and they've checked off that box, okay, I have achieved this thing, it can serve its purpose for kicking off a new storyline for that individual, kicking off a new storyline for that individual's micro communities or pseudo factions, if necessary. It can serve as a broader kickoff: One person's discovers it, three, four or 500 people get to participate now in it. That's an opportunity. It can yield the location of an achievable world relic that can be brought back home to a particular node. There's a lot of different things that are possible in order to see the constellation and to actually achieve that. It could be just as simple as looking at your character's viewport into the night sky at a certain location at a certain time. It could be far more in-depth, which is killing a certain raid boss for a particular number of times until it drops a particular item that yields a map that sends you to a location that sends- there's a lot of different layers that can get added on how do we manifest a particular constellation. The intent here is to provide an immersive system that keeps the player in the world and allows their in-world movement and interactions and immersiveness to yield a result that's unique; and that, I think, is a fun and compelling interaction, especially as it relates to adventuring.[4]Steven Sharif

Dunkelheit

Pre-alpha Mage's detection utility skill casts light and reveals magical explosive hazards.[12]

Dunkelheit, als ein umweltbedingtes Hindernis, wird als ein Teil der Spielmechanik angesehen.[13]

Wie sehr wir das vertiefen, hängt davon ab, wie viel Spaß es tatsächlich macht; wir sind noch dabei, das herauszufinden. Sofern wir ein paar interessante Mechaniken finden, und es nicht frustrierender als spaßig ist, solltest du auf jeden Fall deine eigene Fackel mitbringen.
