I was hoping for other aspects of nodes for a livestream to be completely honest, but I cannot be disappointed in hearing how the backbone of quest making will be done in Ashes of Creation. It's definitely not the flashiest livestream we will get, but these systems are really important. I really hope they tie in the commission discussion with mandates as well. If players are not incentivized to work for their node, then the system and game design crumbles. These have to be rewarding and fun imo.
