Remove the well

The idea of a well is great, if it were in the world, but then its not really needed because Checkpoints do the same thing. As for the town well, it just adds a click for the sake of clicking and doesn't add anything in return. I get that you're going for immersion, but then again, why would a well refill the charges in your charms? And why is there a "well" on a moving caravan in the desert? Isn't that just more of a large bucket? And you'd think that thing would get a ton of sand in it. ;)

Ya, let's just get rid of the well.
also once you have the npc who identifies stuff, when you enter town all of your stuff should be identified. at least i think so . . .
well is just unneededed annoyance
Christ Wolcen said every click should matter, so they gave a meaningless click meaning. Praise Christ Wolcen!

I like the well.

But yes in random place in maps it could be cool (with other effets like in D2)
I... would honestly say yea.


It doesnt really have a point other than to be used when you port back. Theres no depth or anything to it.


Either autofill on town/hideout or just remove the thing.

Unless they plan on doing something with the well mechanically

Didn't they say there were adding this, or having checkpoints also refill our flasks? I could've sworn Jonathan said something about that before EA started.

It's dumb as hell. It's like that extra little 'something' a dev added to the zone, and some other devs looked at it and were like, "oh, that's cool, what's it do?", and the first dev was like, "restores your potions, HP, and mana!", and instead of anyone just using their brain and saying, "just returning to town does that already," they decided to make the game worse in order to keep the 'cool' well that someone added to town.

The more I play this game, the more I wonder how GGG doesn't have anyone with a functioning brain working at their company on this game. There are so many terrible decisions that got passed through to this stage of the game, many of them core designs. This one isn't, and should be an easy change, but... it really does feel like they tossed around ideas and then whenever they thought one sounded good they implemented it without considering how it would affect gameplay and player psychology, or whether it would add extra and entirely unnecessary steps.
