Development Manifesto: Harvest Crafting

yawn nothing new something fun= NERF

This is the wrong change. Retain harvest crafting in its fullest extent, it feels like the best part of Path of Exile as someone who isn't a no-lifer. Give us harvest orbs to store crafts, so that we don't have to use a discord channel to get crafts.

If you don't want us to trade our crafts, then why do you have both a trade league and a solo-self found league? Diablo 3 was kind of the same way at launch, they didn't like the way the market affected the gameplay, so they turned everything into pseudo-solo self found. Now their player base has shrunk to nearly nothing. Don't be like Diablo 3, please.

+1

Casuals.

Apple became the first public company to be worth one Trillion dollars by appealing to casuals.

There's another little company - named after a river - you might have heard of (Ama - something) that was worth 1.5 Trillion as of yesterday. They made their fortune by appealing to casual shoppers. People too lazy to actually leave the house and shop!

Here's my 2 cents that'll likely go unnoticed (who cares anyway?).

* Im a filthy casual with 3500+ hrs on steam (who knows with standalone)
* I've played on and off since BETA (I have the cheapest kiwi bird pet)
* I suck at crafting and theory-crafting, but I can follow a build guide.
* I'm mediocre

I just found out how to sell harvest on discord this league, and I skipped harvest league. I think this move is garbage. I've made some exalts this league, but I've never fought the Maven, or done an uber elder this time around.

So long as GGG makes business decisions for those that stream and play the game for 12 hours a day, casuals will be the only ones that suffer. I mean, you do see what kind of engagement metrics you get each league (YOU FRIGGIN RELEASE THEM WEEK 1, and 2, and 4 of the league!). Those that play all day are still going to print mirrors and game the mechanics to their advantage. This change has solved one problem...a problem of too much broad player-base engagement.

it's nonsense to stop progress, if in real life, in philosophy and the vision of Chris, everyone moved, then we would still live in the Stone Age, without equipment and other things, if you like to cook food on a fire in the middle of the kitchen, then these are your problems, the rest will buy stove, the developers have flawed thinking and a vision of development after this they do not have a move, it is pointless to argue with this

GGG wants rares to be the best items you can get nerfing powerful uniques

also GGG:
Removes harvest making rares 1 in a trillion odds
