The Deepwoken Iceberg Explained

[@ashurive]

old deepwoken seems much more mysterious and adventure filled, i bet it would be interesting playing and actually exploring

[@hawkinskorochod8983]

thats what i was thinking

[@sagehanson190]

@Omar Ching Chong No, it always felt mysterious. The atmosphere and vibe is entirely different, and the world seemed to be designed much more around exploration and discovery. Rag changed it because exploration and discovery only last a few playthroughs, a game with semi-randomized builds will last a lot longer. Changing the game to be more focused around different builds and replayablity isn't inherently a bad thing, but in the process Rag kinda neglected to actually make the game feel alive. Everything we were promised during Old Deepwoken _made_ it feel like it _would_ be alive. Guilds and Factions you could join that actually had a _purpose._ The game used to (or planned to) have missions and jobs you could do for progression that affected your reputation with various factions. They hyped faction rep to be a huge deal when in reality angry factions just attack you and refuse to talk to you, which doesn't really effect you at all. The only Faction with any meaning are the Etreans because when you get high rep with them you can get the duke key I guess, but even that whole quest is pretty bare bones. They made everything seem bigger than it was going to be. Or maybe they planned everything to be bigger than it is now, but obviously they fell far short.

[@vulth9907]

i swear bruh almost everything , even the animations seem better in old deepwoken like the old animations had such a nice aesthetic that just doesn't give the same feeling in the current one , it's sad

[@pantommy]

@@vulth9907 the old one felt much less scripted and planned, it felt like a world you had to discover. Now we quite literally have a streamlined gameplay loop: go to trial of one, farm some island, go depths/bosses/pvp until bell and then get max level. Even the builds are streamlined, you know exactly what you need. The game just got discovered too quickly...

the bandit beater part is funny to me as in the first week of release, i started saying that it was a bandit beater where the bandit beats you because of how bad i was

[@DidiTheCoolio]

lol

[@ZIGL0S]

I would've liked if they kept it simple without bells and so many combat mantras. I also like the concept of actually going on a mission with friends and getting rewards of it. I would love to experience deepwoken back in the days when there wasnt much to it.

[@imahumanperson7045]

You know that's what they had been doing up to this point right? They kept having to cut off parts until it all flowed well and it's the main reason the game is so dry right now. You ask ro remove more and you'll straight up kill the games player base

[@sagehanson190]

I'd argue that Deepwoken is a bandit beater. It's not as bad as _some_ out there, but we were lead to believe that progression would be more complex than "fight NPC." In reality that's all it is with a few extra steps. What happened to the missions and jobs during the direct? What happened to guilds actually having a purpose and specialization? Why did Ragoozer say progression would be "diagonal" when it's clearly just a straight goddamn line.

[@clxrnce]

There is no arguing, it is a bandit beater. Now whether that has a negative or positive connotation is up to you.

There’s a bunch of stuff missing here, though I only really know one thing myself. I found a giant structure in the middle of nowhere when sailing with a friend. We literally found the gateway to the other luminants and took some sick artist role-worthy shots. Sadly I was unable to send my art for whatever reason so no art role. Also there was nothing there, we couldn’t really go inside or anything so we just climbed to the top and took photos, then glided to the top of a nearby mountain to have an incredibly distanced 1v1.

[@ratmations8306]

@@historicflame972 Obviously the Visionshaper abilities players get aren't set to what's possible in canon. Aelitas clones are Visionshaper abilities, Ferryman's arent. The teleporting is a pretty goofy thing but it's nothing the Ferryman does (that's directly related to their Thundercall again), Aelita's teleport makes the Visionshaper sound and either is an in-canon Visionshaper ability or is (more likely) to just be a way to implement Aelita's vow of no killing in a trickster-like way, not really many other ways to implement a non-lethal lethal option.

tbh if the deepwoken we saw in deepwoken direct was the current game deepwoken would've been way better. although more tedious it seemed much more fun (E.g. Isle of crows, mantra cores to have truly customisable spells, finding sellers of books to power up) seemed more adventure filled and less of a "bandit beater"

[@Mariama_Kane]

You’ve never played old dw so you can’t really say it would be better, plus a lot of testers have said that current dw is better than old dw.

[@wanderingmerchant7539]

they needa bring some of the islands that were removed back to the game and give specific loot types depending on the island and there loot is not for stats but cosmetic purposes i feel like more varients of armors just as cosmetics but specificly for the island will improve the game alot since most of the players once high leveld all want is more dripped items in game but in return itd be cool if these islands were meant for high levels and not really grindable as a low level in other words very difficult. for example: isle of crows and meteor isle had so much work into it just so it can be removed?

[@computer8490]

Would bring too much lag to etrian luminant and most of them wont be used or be rarely used compared to the metas. Between some content that most people barely use or having no lag its obvious what would be better. Also lag is prob the reason why they make different layers for depths so it does not become a lag clusterfuck.

[@eksutube]

@@computer8490 or would you decide to scrap actual good islands, LITERAL islands shown in the direct without telling everybody and just giving them the conclusion of: "lag"

I think a good idea for a video, is you literally just go on an alt account on discord, then hop in the rogue lineage or deepwoken vc and just record whatever everybody says and compile all the good parts.

Krulians are shapeshifters aga. Aelita could be a krulian

[@shadowx4559]

Sup agamatsu, just explaining a few things mentioned on the video, animal king/mute : Yes it Is real. ragoozer himself already had confirmed it. Theres no real method of actually getting it, its completly RNG. as a proof of that, i got it in 2 slots, on my khan on its 5th live by chance at lvl 15, and on my celtor on its first life at lvl 1. Aelita being a krulian : the reason people think that is 3, krulians are shapeshifters, so they can take any appearence they want, like how ferryman has the appearence of a etrean. Ferryman mentioned there are more krulians outhere on the overworld aside ffrom him, which we dont know who they are. and the last one, Aelita has the ability to teleport the player to any island she wants on the overworld. Thats literally not tied to illusion magic at all. (fun fact : arch had mentioned that something about aelita was retconned, so yes, theres still a chance shes not an ordinary felinor.) World Serpent : It is the largest monster ingame and Arch mage mentioned in the art channel that since the hitboxes were fixed, they'll add it back at some point soon. Adagio : Fake. the ability to slowdown time is unknown, it was never given a name. Akira's bell : Akira's Unique bell has the ability to instantly give insanity to someone, which is why he can insta-kill npcs in the depths. The Stranger : sadly, hes probably unfinished. since theres no charisma option when he spawns. Datewoken : ....i prefer not to talk about the things i've seen. meatlord>drowned gods : mate that literally a joke. why is it on a iceberg. horseshoe crab : this one is a little tricky, it IS still in the game as seen in the cutscene if you fail karliah's quest. though archmage can also spawn them. they basically steal your blood, they are extremally annoying and having 3 of them on you at once is enough to kill you , since they'll instantly drain your blood until you die. hope this will help explain them.
