Pantheon Early Access: Top 10 GAMEPLAY Questions Answered!

[@anothersquid]

Presumably there's been no farmer bots in early early access, but I do wonder how long before we start seeing them.

[@arthaxunleashed]

@@anothersquid they are making it a bit harder with no auto follow etc. very few boxers that I've seen. Usually just oog buffs

[@seanblack5085]

Is there guilds or clans in the game ?

[@arthaxunleashed]

@@seanblack5085 yep keep and eye out for the next 3 videos. We cover social technical etc. with those.

[@preston6916]

Anyone know if we will be able to use the same client or will we have to download it from steam for EA?

[@arthaxunleashed]

The current patcher should work.

[@preston6916]

Right on I appreciate u thanks so much for the pantheon videos they have helped me out a ton along the way keep up the good work!!

[@arthaxunleashed]

@@billybob1353 I appreciate you.

[@anothersquid]

Decent video, although I've never seen those mobs in those outdoor spots :)

[@arthaxunleashed]

@@anothersquid which mobs?

[@pugpug1953]

Are there going to be plenty of mobs to kill come EA? Every video I see they seem to be scarce.

[@arthaxunleashed]

@@pugpug1953 new zones coming in, I would expect a good amount of mobs to be available as we spread out. I'm thinking they might dial up respawn rates a tad.

Nice video - ty

[@arthaxunleashed]

@@yokohl6997 I appreciate you!

[@Kiba825]

Biggest question, will there be wipes? I found mixed answers and can't seem to verify. I have friends that want to play but aren't ready to commit if there will be wipes.

[@wrongsideofthirty]

Yes there will defintely be wipes. Possibly several, Joppa said this is not a soft launch its early access which basically means Beta

[@arthaxunleashed]

@@Kiba825 Yep. This is the gameplay portion. I have a few more videos covering other things like social and technical.

[@swein5399]

no bard love. sad

[@anothersquid]

I hope they plan something like the Vanguard bard. That has been the best bard implementation I've seen in a game, and by a wide margin.

[@arthaxunleashed]

@@swein5399 PVL has something special in store for bards. I cannot wait to see how they work here.

[@Crown-Coke]

I pledged like 8yrs ago before they made a graphics change to look like EverQuest Next. Sadly, I have zero desire to play this game & feel like I was ripped on the game I pledged vs what its become

[@arthaxunleashed]

If you pledged, have you played? You might feel differently.

[@gilbeggergilbegger5819]

what is your favorite color??!!!

[@arthaxunleashed]

Blue, no green! AHHHHHH

[@nicodeleonsilva7148]

it's 2024.... there is NO excuse for these stiff animations... especially the walking and running

[@arthaxunleashed]

The animations are being improved. This is an alpha state game with new models. Monk combat animations I believe are the first to get a pass.

[@danield-h1j]

do the racial benefits exist?

[@arthaxunleashed]

@@danield-h1j yep. Will be covered in a future video. I have so much to cover lol.

[@MakoRuu]

I was kind of excited for Pantheon until they changed to these horrible cartoony graphics.

[@arthaxunleashed]

@@MakoRuu They really aren't bad. It was a necessity due to funding and time.

[@MakoRuu]

@@arthaxunleashed It was only necessary to appeal to their new investors, who wanted a more friendly and appealing graphics style to target a larger demographic. Not the vision that Brad McQuaid had, recreating a spiritual successor to EverQuest.

[@arthaxunleashed]

@MakoRuu Cohh was a major investor and he wanted the old graphics. They have said multiple times it was a progress blocker.

[@Pygmalion1.6]

@@arthaxunleashed cohcarnage is a noob so , his point is,useless

[@Crown-Coke]

​@arthaxunleashed time? This has been in development for like 8yrs...the graphics they switched to could've been completed like 4yrs ago. I'm with the OP, I pledged at the beginning of development & this change is horrible IMO & although I already pledged I have zero interest in playing.

[@shannonadams5129]

I disagree with the challenge of combat vs modern MMO games. Unless you are actively having to dodge and position and truly manually aim yourself throughout the combat instead of tab target lock on and hit attack as shown in the video it is still just button mashing like the majority of MMOs out there have been since they started. Combat in this game looks no different than the old EQ combat. I still look forward to it, just don't try to claim something is different or better, when it is not.

[@arthaxunleashed]

I've never seen a non boss have a tank kill in 1.5 seconds. So yea its more challenging than WoW or many other games.
