15 years ago is being nice it's actually 26...
The really sad part is I still have a tiny bit of hope that Brad's vision will be carried like a torch and shine through when this finally releases and it will be fun to play. That hope is on the edge of a cliff hanging on by it's fingertips tho.
The more I watch and read about this game the less confidence I have in it.
If the next newsletter is mining and the one after that is fishing I'm just going to hang my head and slump my shoulders at my desk and sigh.

Part of the real issue here is that work has been put into crafting and they want to show off their work but not realizing that it's as riveting as a user interface demonstration.
Clearly the animation needs to be faster. And quite frankly I'd be open to having real danger as a part of the process. Not every time but sometimes.

Logic, my dear, merely enables one to be wrong with great authority.
I honestly can't believe this is what they came up with.
Every single survival game where you hit tree/rock with axe/pick and get resource is better than this convoluted mess.
How did someone go, "Yeah this looks good let's implement this."??

Try a MUD today at http://www.mudconnect.com/In Ryzom, you first have to find the wood to dig it up. Wood isn't just laying around to be chopped. It takes a high prospecting skill to find high level wood. People have their own dig spots they've found and keep it secret.
Once you find it, you can dig wood. There are 4-5 different kinds, each with 5 different quality levels. Digging is dangerous; it's a mini-game that can get you killed. So having a helper makes it go much faster and safer. Only game I know of where gathering/digging is more than a solo operation.
They said skinning is next. I loved killing stuff in Vanguard, then skinning them and taking out body parts to upgrade my necro pet with.

Or alternatively some detection where if you're not in immediate danger the gathering takes only a couple of seconds.
I skipped through and didnt watch the entire thing but since they want it to be a group thing, was the loot group based/rolled or can someone just ninja it?
Also what is up with taking damage while fighting rocks? Is that supposed to simulate putting a pick in your foot or something, I am confused by this. I am also confused by what are the tactics exactly for this? It seems the guy just spammed all his abilities until his health was low. Add a pocket healer and just keep spamming?
What is the gameplay here that is supposed to be fun.
Confucius say...Not always is it a tree one looks to get wood from.
Did you mean in 2525? lol
