Development Manifesto: Harvest Crafting

THIS ABSOLUTELY WRECKS CONSOLE PLAYERS

The market on console is already so bad, massive price fixing on the board, a 15 ex crafted item is 30 ex on console.

At any given moment there is only about 60-70 awakener orbs for sale to give you an idea of the market on there.


Let alone what this is going to do when the .01 percent take all these new GG items to STANDARD

Lol, so far GGG's response is essentially "deal with it"

There's a very very small percentage of players that dislike Harvest because it reduces their grind in a league, thereby reducing their playtime. Those players don't play for tinkering, or for new builds, etc. but play for the drip feed of content each league, and have 10k+ hours played each. By nerfing Harvest, GGG is catering exclusively to those players, while ignoring the rest of us.

For the rest of us, Harvest allows us to tinker with new builds, have smooth and fun progression, and make our own gear instead of buying it off trade.

GGG is making it VERY clear which portion of the playerbase they care about, unfortunately for those of us who have not been playing the game for the better half of a decade.

Nope, that's it.
I'm out.

This is beyond a joke now. The gag that was "Fun detected, must nerf!" is now a truism.
I have been disliking the direction that GGG have been taking PoE for a good long while now, and I kept popping back in but no more.

Honestly, I'm now a hairs breadth away from hoping they crash and burn, because the way they treat the majority of their player base is insulting. Good luck hoping for anything enjoyable for the so called 'PoE 2', I can't see that being any fun at all.

Roll on D2:R and D4 (not that I have much hope for D4 either!).

Come on GGG, this is horrible mistake you are going to make. Majority of players never were so happy before this legue, and its not only because this brilliant expansion. Its because avarage player is finaly can achieve something, not only struggle and then abandon legue.

all these cry babies in chat git gud newbs xD HAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHA

Harvests are rare,
finding the right crafting option is rare,
Hitting the right mod can be insanely rare.

That’s enough usage of the RNG.

The trading of crafts seems to be what you don’t like.
If players had to get all the crafts by themselves, I doubt you would see so many item showcases of insanely good gear.
(all T1 and T0).
I really think you should consider working on that and not nerf the mechanic.

This game was founded to be diablo ii's spiritual successor which had a large focus on making any item in the game at least somewhat useful. Crafting is the idea of making your own brand of useful.

This manifesto is a gambling simulator that isn't fun or rewarding. Being able to take out bad mods off the 100000's of bad drops. Literally 99.9% of the drops are complete garbage and out of that 0.1, most barely qualify as keep worthy.

while I'm a very casual player, even I have to say this is bad.

Please reconsider.

"Using Exalted Orbs are exciting way to improve it ( gear ) "

xD

GGG are clowns.
