I honestly don't know how many hours I would play. If the game holds my attention, probably 3-5 hours on weekdays and 5-10 on weekends. To be honest, I don't know enough about how the game is supposed to play. I will probably have a better idea after watching some Alpha 2 content. But I'm just unsure about the game at this point.
3 hours each evening after work. Then 7-10 hours on non work days... dependent on real life commitments. I will likely put 25-30 hours a week into ashes if it's good gameplay.
I feel attacked! For real though it’s been very clear to me for a long time that I’ll have to be a casual and this gives me anxiety. I’ve never been a casual before.
I ran a tavern in UO, and was the guild leader of Yew Militia on Great Lakes fir 6 years and would still consider myself a casual player. Its really about organizing your time and multitasking.
Most MMORPG players are some form of Casual player: Casual Time/Casual Challenge Hardcore Time/Casual Challenge Casual Time/Hardcore Challenge Hardcore Time/Hardcore Challenge Even a Casual Time/Casual Challenge player could be the Mayor of a Node. You can find a "community" just by being active as a Citizen of your Node without belonging to a Guild. Helping a Node progress whenever you're online can be more important than reaching max Adventurer Level. Casual players will not have a difficult time playing Ashes of Creation.
casual need ot be this 3 thing a player who does :causla content motly like 99% ,his play style is casual he isnt tryhard but plays ot relax and it the time he invests in the game . but open world pvp mmo fails to offer good causla content and relaxing gameplay (since it open world ppl can gang you )
@@dygz Ahoi Dygz. _* waves in Aszkalon *_ 😎 Usually when One knows *"nothing"* about an MMO, like for Example Me when i saw the first "Trailer" for New World and how awesome it looked, *THAT* is usually a Sign that it will be "mid" at best and nothing revolutionary. It was this way for me for over a whole Decade of seeing and testing new MMO's. I am glad that Ashes will have something for Everyone. Both Hardcore Players and Casuals. I mean if *"even"* that now-mid* Game Worst of Warcraft can get it done more or less, then Ashes should be able to do at least the same.
I used to have way more time before, but since I have my first job things have changed. I still have time tho, I just don't have that amount of vacation and free time in general. Currently, I don't play videogames that much tbh, but if I end up liking AoC a lot, i will probbably play 5-6h a day + the entire weekends, so I guess i'll be in a middle ground between casual and hardcore, just... a standard player(?). I really want a game to feel adicted to, hope this one blows my mind.
My hope is that everyone can find something that they enjoy doing in-game and will keep logging in no matter if it is a few hours a week to 16+ hours a day. If Ashes is going to be a hit it will need to have a place for people who have less time to invest. For me personally even on days where I have RL responsibilities to take care of, I will still manage 10+ hours on most days it will be 16+, who needs sleep especially in those first several months after launch.
Good analysis. I don't recall anyone else addressing this. My current plan is to no-life A2 until it becomes boring and then only play casually (2-3 hours, most days). If I can't make good progress and/or succeed, I'll just watch other people play :D
I don't see much point in no lifing the game until Release. A2 is just testing and will be reset several times as duplication bugs, code changes, content changes and other issues demand.
I was a hard core WoW player back in the day when it was still good. Now I have a wife, kids, dogs, a mortgage, and oh so little free time. But I only keep in contact with one former guild member. Couldn’t remember for the life of me who the other folk were.
I was wondering if there is a chance that some areas will not be very contested by the "tryhard" guilds or players. Maybe these areas will be behind compared to the overall server, but they might allow players with less time to experience most of the game's features vs. other people with less time.
I'm going to win the lotto before this shit comes out, then I will travel for a year. Finally, when it does come out, I'll be playing 18 hours a day for a full year. Once the year ends if Im even alive, I'll evaluate on the next move.
Long Live the Casuals! I'll be very happy if I can get 1hr a day, and I plan on spending that time processing my dwarven heart out to help my node. I don't need to change Verra with my presence, I just want someone to need the ingots I smelt.
The thing with casuals is when a game runs properly they are great it’s a huge chunk of players with potential to add value to the game and community. Unfortunately modern games have been catering to the casual players essentially allowing them to make the same amount of progress either through P2W or some oversimplified system that doesn’t respect time investment. And as a result I see a lot of animosity towards the “toxic casuals” which do exist but I believe to be a minority that really don’t care for or to play the game but seek to gain some sort of space to destroy with bad ideas and a toxic mentality. It’s why an actual mmo community is so important holding the people accountable and calling out the overt toxicity and p2w systems being championed in modern games and why those systems need to fail and that’s what I’m hoping ashes shows the genre is that we haven’t given up on the community yet and to keep our favorite games around, healthy, and fun we are willing to not play a game just because it’s an mmo but to look past that and see what kind of community the devs are trying to foster and decide whether or not it’s worth the time investment. Mmo players really have to be what they used to be a group of people that loved a genre and essentially told people to F off if they were ignorant or didn’t respect the culture. I’m all for new players and gamers wanting to see what mmos are about but like with most things in this world to many crappy ideas became mainstream to placate the “turbo casuals” and now we are here hoping a game that doesn’t exist does what needs to be done finally after a decade of decay. Thank you for listening to my TED talk.

You forgot about one the biggest factors when it comes to gathering/crafting. The fact that low level materials never become irrelevant in the game, and are always needed. So you can run long distance caravans filled with low level materials to nodes where those materials don't exist, for huge profits.
Playing the game is one thing. Making your mark is something else entirely. Sure, as a casual, you can do things for your giild but don't expect to influence the storyline in a major way. Just accept your casual status and learn to work within it.
At release, I plan on playing 24 hrs a day for the first 3 days, 20 hours a day for the next week, 18 hours a day for the next 3 weeks. I will have my boss Lay me off for a month so I can collect unemployment benefits while I LIVE inside AoC.

Based comment for a based video. Tired of hearing all the "hardcore" only talk. History and stats show us these kinds of games dont survive by the hardcore. The live and die by fostering a broad community. Mmos need us all, from sweaty try hards to super casuals. Nice vid Xillin.
You really need to re-evaluate what casual means. I may be misremembering but asmongold was discussing casuals in relation to WoW or New World at one point and a chatter linked to a research article thathad dound something like only 20% of players average 2 hours per day. Even someone who only logs in 2 or 3 times a week for an hour or two at a time can go out and collect resources. Those resources will be used. That player has had an impact.
casual arent timed player they are ppl who play only causal content, play in a casual mindset(relaxing or having fun not to be tryhards and then there is the time investment .
I think the proper phrase is 'Filthy Casual!" 🤣definitely going to try for 5-6 hours a day during the alpha 2, but I'm lucky and get blocks of 7-8 days off in a row a month :)
The problem is when casuals start to complain about the game systems been non-casual. why u play a game that require time when u dont have time? . Just enjoy your journey.
@@XillinThis is not on players. This is on the studio. If they cave to casuals, it's because someone from up high said that they need more money by tapping into a wider audience. There's always a middle ground to be had, but a lot of the blame falls at the feet of studio leadership.
then why try to bring causla int oa game NOT MEAN FOR THEM it stupid .causal keep mmorpg alive that well know fact the hardocre player are so irrelavant they arent even 5% of the playerbase (excluding wow)
dude dont miss my point , steven itself said "ashes is not for everyone" . my point is if U WANT to play casual then dont complain about systems of any game because u choose how much time u want to invest not the game . @@anteprs7908
I don't think you can attach a "time played per day/week" etc. to a casual player. It has nothing to do with how much time you have or play, it's how you play while in the game. Take that from a casual player as you want, I am a per my own definition a casual player but I play games 6-12 hours per day when I don't work. If I spend 12 hours in Ashes per day but not really do anything productive other than just want to be logged in and chat, socialize or run around doing quests in my own pace. Am I then a hardcore player because of time played? I may have misunderstood you but I don't think you can attach a playtime to being casual, just as you can't with a hardcore player. A hardcore player can do more in a couple of hours in-game than a casual player can in days, but the casual player can in still have more time to play. Sorry for the rant, just think you're a little wrong here.
Let's just see what a player-driven economy will look like after a few months. If the game is popular, it will attract real money trading, Chinese gold farmers and bots. I am more interested in knowing how intrepid intends to deal with those.
If Intrepid wants millions of players or even hundreds of thousands of players.... They need casuals. You need content for both the casual and hardcore player. You should not nerf all the hardcore content however to where it is all casual content.
Casuals and Community are almost synonymous in an MMO. Without casuals, you dont have a community. An MMO with tryhards is almost a different game altogether. Personally, I'm aiming to be around maybe 4 hours a day if I can and heavier on the weekends. So I have no clue where that falls on the scale. Lol.
@@Xillin I don’t even see it that way. I hope everyone is in the game and enjoys it. I have my last bit of hope in a good designed and fun engaging game that is both able to fulfill my play style but still is populated by all players. Where a lot of games go wrong is not appealing to casuals.
its easy dont play a mmo games if you dont have a time to play!Everyone can play casual i mean there will be always casual guilds,but AoC is crazy competitive game bcs of PvP everywhere this is maybe a big problem for non PvP players!
no there isnt AND PLS STOP TRYING TO GET CASUALS IN THE GAME because you need omebody to craft you stuff .being a crafter is all casuals can be and not even that ince it a open world pvp game and that nice for thr ppl who are into that but that o casual players ,alo casual player isnt just somebody with limited time but you hardcre players dont understand that.

< casual…. Now what, son? Have you actually ever seen me game?
its easy dont play a mmo games if you dont have a time to play!Everyone can play casual i mean there will be always casual guilds,but AoC is crazy competitive game bcs of PvP everywhere this is maybe a big problem for non PvP players!
Filthy casuals. I guess I would play about 5-6 hours a week.
A week? This is what is called LIES
no there isnt AND PLS STOP TRYING TO GET CASUALS IN THE GAME because you need omebody to craft you stuff .being a crafter is all casuals can be and not even that ince it a open world pvp game and that nice for thr ppl who are into that but that o casual players ,alo casual player isnt just somebody with limited time but you hardcre players dont understand that.
