Steven ROASTS Narc After An Epic Battle For Ashes of Creation Supremacy

[@Narc]

And thus, the battle between FBR and MLM concludes! Come follow the stream for more epic Ashes of Creation adventures: www.twitch.tv/Narciverse

[@DovashiFuku]

Hello Narc good day man. I have a good idea. Maybe you can pass this to Steven. 🙏 I have a suggestion with items in cash shop. How about all the things you can buy in cash shop are just upgrades of the items you can obtain in the game. This will maintain the sweetness of hard work and basically eliminate the stigma of "ah he/she just bought that" For example I obtain an item rare above quality. This will unlock an upgrade in the store you can buy making it look cooler. This is a great idea I got from the Dota2 Item system. There are items in dota that looks cool, but will look cooler if you buy the gem that will unlock cooler aesthetic of the item. Hoping you have read this. 🙏

[@ccloudleaf]

who now?

[@ccloudleaf]

@@DovashiFuku They have confirmed this system. You can buy a cosmetic but you have to obtain the correlating item type to apply the cosmetic. Not sure to what depth it is, but I know the example they gave was you can't buy a 175% speed mount skin and apply it to a 135% speed mount. You have to obtain a 175% first, then you can apply it.

AoC game crashes every time I am logging in to a realm even if I have a 10k$ expensive customized PC. It is impossible to play this game and the support team was totally useless in solving my problems while I can play any released game on Steam without crashing. AoC didn't want to give me free embers for having problems with their super expensive alpha keys, which I strongly not recommend to people since I cannot really play... All I can do is access the character creation.

getting T-bagged by Steven cleansed Nac's soul forever

[@everlonggaming1966]

For about 30 seconds....

[@Coreycry]

"games a scam heheheheh" at the end killed me, peak 10y.o mentality after getting caught and make amends

[@King_of_Sofa]

That's cool man, I'm glad that you and Steven are back on good terms.

[@brelshar4968]

Money talks.

[@kellywilson137]

Narc is happy he isn't stuck speculating and can now actually play the game with his community.

[@nykz2358]

@@brelshar4968 lmao look at your comments loser get a life holy

[@TheJakebriscoe]

Ya they are “cool” Kapp

[@infinitely-random]

when was Steven on bad terms? What did I miss?

[@Sackboii]

Amazing truly. Criticisms about the game aside, I can't think of even one single game out there who's CEO interacts with their community like this. This kind of interaction is rare and is going to become legendary in the years ahead! Reminds me of the old days of Blizzard, when WoW GMs would interact with those within the world. When the company still cared about its community and their passion for the game and didn't see them as money cattle, trying to milk them for $90 for a mount.

[@foltandaniel]

The same can happen easily here as well. Don't underestimate greed.

[@sethisansestorofsatan9477]

this is gonna make way into in-game lore

[@Davivd2]

"Why are you so..." *looks at the alter to diabetes behind him* "question answered before I could get it out. Carry on"

[@roanwa4712]

True. Narc should legit watch his health.

[@AkridOnline]

It's so nice to see you having fun again, you can visibly see the difference in your videos from a month ago to now.

[@mindspank]

Narc looking like worm wasn't on my 2024 bingo card.

[@Time-yc2ff]

we got wilson fisk playing AOC before GTA 6

[@corthin_the_dorf]

Narc - When you were making drama with Steven vids a few weeks back, I stopped watching your stuff and lost interest. But this vid saved you. This sort of content is what made you fun to watch to begin with and you'll have a lot of success if you keep things fun like this. Not suggesting you lie about how you feel about things - but I am saying that your sense of humor and banter - without the drama - is super appealing and if you keep that path, I'm sure you'll find a lot of success. Best wishes.

[@infinitely-random]

Drama farming will be back in few episodes. Just step back and try to view the whole picture. Constant attention to draw new viewers is needed.

[@Chief_Amiesh]

the "god do i know" as a response while he flies off on his mayor-mount. I'm geeked up

[@azrieldimitrios]

What a fucking moment in gaming, always wished you could go against the dev live. What an awesome experience

[@dashippo5896]

Its crazy how smooth the servers are now. Honestly I cannot wait for p2, and knowing there will be a servers wipe gets me pumped. Ima go hard.

[@oobiies]

Smooth??

[@KrisHammes]

It's because 80% of people stopped playing ;)

[@uWAVES]

@@oobiies they arent amazing but they are definitely good for the current stage of the game

[@jakehr3]

I would hesitate to give praise for server stability when a lot of players have stopped playing. The hardest time for any game is the immediate release of an expansion or launch of a game. Idk if any MMO has ever successfully managed it. But hopefully the experience from the Alpha II will provide some much needed infrastructure investments for when the game gets opened up to a wider audience down the road.

[@stevenjsharif]

This weekend was our highest concurrency. And our smoothest yet 💪

[@GethOverlord]

It's honestly quite cool that the studio owner would hop in and be the boss in a 1v1000 style raid

[@Hung_Nguyen_90]

Isnt that make the fight ... PvP 🤣. Also imagine a trash talking dragon 🤣

[@s1zzl1n]

F A T AND B A L D are you?

[@joshuahetherington5161]

Great video again mate, you look like you're enjoying yourself and the banter is back. Lovin it!. I'm enjoying A2 myself, a lot more than expected. fair play to Intrepid. Make sure you fit some time in your schedule for getting some exercise and eating right in. Stress and a poor diet can do serious damage to a body. Look after yourself mate!

[@Diesel3R]

Had to take my video down from 4k to 360p so my screen wouldn't crack from showing all of Narc's bald 😂

[@Xexanos]

18:08 the Lineage 2 soundtrack setting in, truly befit of this epic moment!

[@joshsmith5626]

This right here... has made me rethink my skepticism about this game. I really like seeing how steven is having fun with this. And narcs reactions have me actually crying with laughter. "Hes roleplaying out the wazoo right now"

[@Destroymaster100]

idk why people are talking bad about the game. to me the pvp looks fun af. open world pvp is fun all the time.

[@zyloctal]

Same reason people talk badly of Star Citizen, salty people don't like it when devs take the time they need to make a quality game!!!

[@drooskie9525]

most critics don't even know what they are even criticizing when talking about his game.

[@CrackedZac]

This was a big Steven W

[@darthxigo297]

hahahahahaha so good; well played Steven

[@Eljy-pf8qy]

Awesome redemption Arc, this game already got his own communitie's stories

[@WojDestroyer]

This was the most BASED head of a studio GM moment :D I loved it! this was great!

[@BirthrightGaming]

Steven is the Game Master of this DnD table. And Narc is his favorite player Love it

[@kainslegacy7]

I love hearing Steven's voice over. It's kinda lame, but in the most wholesome way. Too fun.

[@IgnatLorin]

Hey, that is the Lineage 2 soundtrack at 4:38! This game is already such a LINEAGE 2 MMO tease with concepts like open-world dungeons such as the 'Tower or Caphin Raid' (Tower of Insolence + Forgotten Temple vibes), the staple Lineage 2 PvP/PK system, the focus on slowly grinding mobs instead of just intense questing togheter with having to navigate the world on foot that only makes PvP/PK trinity system grant a huge amount of adrenaline and also makes player interactions on the battlefield matter. The concept of only the Castle Owner’s Clan Leader having access to a flying mount, GM's interacting with players, creating events and spawning monsters, and many, many more, just scream Lineage2. Some of the best underrated MMO systems from Lineage 2 are now available for all MMO players to experience! But since you don’t fully agree with some of them YET and thus aren’t a true Lineage 2 enthusiast, I need to know, @Narc-did you edit the sound, or was it the original Ashes of Creation video? Because those songs hit hard

[@Krastty]

l2 soundtrack it is from 0:59 and no, no l2 music in original AoC

[@ccloudleaf]

Never tried that MMO, but after hearing Steven and others like yourself talk about I'm happy he was inspired by it!

[@IgnatLorin]

"@ccloudleaf Keep in mind that the true MMO Lineage 2, with all those systems, has been long gone for years now. They slowly and steadily nerfed everything to the ground because of new carebear players complaining about it being too harsh and unforgiving, which eventually made the systems that made it shine disappear. Lineage 2 was only worth it during the C1-C5 glory days. I see this also happening in the comments on AoC KZbin videos, unfortunately, with players confusing the lack of mandatory systems in the alpha with the ‘unfairness’ of the system. Check the Asmongold vid-they made Corruption penalty way higher just because there was no safe spot added to the starting zone, and Asmon was being griefed. I’m worried they’ll nerf it to the point where PK (player kill) Corruption will be so bad that you’ll need to make a new character if you kill some douchebag who actually deserves it. Even @Narc complained about the absence of Story and quests, this is not WOW, the value of the game is made from users interacting, you don't need a huge story or complex quests. Sure a few more quests added won't be bad but GRIDNING should remain the staple or else all the systems lose value and will fall apart.

That lineage 2 music goes hard

[@heartless_gamer]

I am convinced more and more with Alpha 2 that this is just a giant playground for Steven. While that generates some interesting content it is 100% unsustainable.

what a mess xD

[@GoatInACoatt]

The fact we didnt get to see how the mounts looked is criminal

[@lfk113]

thats for another video man is narc we're talking about the master of making content of thin air himself of course he would ration the actual content

[@mallusdarkblade]

"Look at me" ewww no way dude.

[@veteran501]

Man, Steven is the effin' GOAT, who else would do such a role play just for fun? He lives and breaths this shite.

[@ccloudleaf]

Why would I believe that the answer wasn't "A promise" and this whole encounter at the tower was just Steven being a Dungeon Master again and flexing that muscle. He was improving like mad, you can tell he's done that before. Btw my guess was a lighthouse.

[@Sandnessen]

Steven: A wish shaped by the fire of creation itself. Me: Holy shit! *Wish granted* Oh, shit..

[@Jonkahafifteen]

Man, saw some of this live. Had no idea there was a fight prior to this. Amazing content, Steven is doing amazing work for the growing AoC community. Props to him for truly embodying hope.

aight this was pretty funny, still fat though

[@EdenGardn]

hol moly that was so cool, steaven shariif is a G

[@TheApostate-d3v]

One of the things that always concerns me is the obvious decline in health many youtubers have, in time I am sure we will see a video about how he let his health go and the decline of his personal life. Homie really needs to eat better, walk every day, and workout. I like his content but dude is slipping.

[@SanctuaryLife]

I have to disagree, the balder and fatter people get the more relatable they become. There is something about health freaks that just makes you want to see them fall and makes them less funny. But when people have already fallen, you want to lend them your hand. AKA love. Weakness is lovable. "Let them eat cake" if they choose.

[@moe.winner]

Okay that was pretty awesome

[@ccloudleaf]

Goldeneye NPC got me rolling

[@saltybulldog3241]

wait is he using a fat filter or what?

[@julemand3n]

Who is this bald dude xD

[@ashbjorn]

Apologies for being unknowledgeable, I haven't checked your content for a while, but what happened to your health bro? You on bad meds? Hope you OK mate. Cheers.

[@implodingllama2092]

No exercise and shaving his beard

[@ApolloDarling]

This is the video game equivalent of two friends having a fist fight after getting into an argument, only to become better friends thereafter.

[@squatchbigfoot8577]

lololol this is the best ever!

[@snuffeldjuret]

seeing that intro video makes it obvious one thing I dislike in new mmos the most prominent tings of a character is the hoovering player name... in wow, the most prominent thing is always the actual character.

Oh man warching this is giving me so much hopium. Ashes lookin fun and a great vibe. Edit: thanks for the content Steven!

[@Martumal]

damn, that was hilarious.

[@Houndz-8]

Yissir!

[@Bluntoze]

Was that music in-game or edited onto the video ? Because it game me goosebumps. That was Lineage 2 music.

[@Grimasaurus]

Steven... based on Narc's voice acting, I reckon there is a character in AoC somewhere that he could lend his vocals to. Perhaps a "The Dented One" NPC...

[@SaturnFlair2]

stupid question, was the voice over for the system broadcast in game or post edit by you? if its in game thats pretty cool and wonder if its heard through out the entire server

[@idiom555]

I was in game. Not in the same area. Didn't hear anything.

[@lukefrederiks5906]

It's AI haha

[@gamingasylum9957]

Sounded like an edit using elevenlabs.

[@LostMyselfInTheDust]

Thank you for the Lineage 2 music, brought a tear to my eye :,)

[@ChubbyChaser331]

This game is going to be huge when it finally releases I can sense it. Predicting 2004 WoW release kind of success.

[@moe.winner]

Wait, was the text actually voiced or did you add it after with A.I.?

[@petergtterup4205]

Narc should take his health more serious…! The weight he has gained the last year is not good

Can you imagine how much fun it would be to mess with players in the game you are spearheading the development of? I would do the same, hehe :} I hope he also comes to the EU servers.
