If I understood their statements correctly, they're holding off on fixing bugs where doing so would nerf builds unless those builds are crashing servers.

However they have no such policy for fixing bugs in ways that buff underperforming builds. I expect them to do some of that when they aren't drowning, especially if they're confident it won't displace any current top meta builds.

You do have to read their statements carefully to notice that they've drawn that distinction, which I guess is why a lot of people missed it.

Hello!

I'm reading this year old thread trying to figure out if "increased bow elemental damage" increases the damage of dragonfire, the cone spell caused by the bow dragonsong.

I'm guessing not, because its tags are fire, spell, area, dexterity, and not bow.

But there's never an "elemental bow" tag. I guess the "increased bow elemental damage" means it increases the damage of spells that are listed as having "bow" scaling and one of the "elements" scaling? Otherwise it's a two-for-one, but maybe because bow is unique for marksman you allow a two-for-one here?

Anyway, all that to give feedback. I think your game is amazing, your game guide is by far the best thing I've seen as an encyclopedia in a game, but if you want a lot of websites are very helpful with explaining what all the words mean. That said, I would love a sort of FAQ list you could make somewhere. You don't answer every question about every interaction.

But som...

. There are people when they play characters in games like this they like to imagine themselves in that character shoes as a form of escapism. I don’t care if people wanna call that sexism or whatever but I cannot enjoy playing a female character like the necromancer. And absolutely no customization on their appearance. Yes some people are not gonna care, but there will also be a good portion of ppl who do. They should’ve gone the extra step to add that into the game design.

Their base stats are pretty good tho so I still use my shitty ones

There is some movement on that front but it's going to be a little different than just straight unlocked account wide.

I feel that's probably the correct response. You've got bigger fish to fry in the now than adding alt QoL to Monoliths, and it's something that you can't take away after adding, without receiving a ton of backlash. I noticed Karv is part of your dev team, so he (among others, presumably) know how Harvest crafting played out in PoE, and how angry the community got after GGG clawed back a lot of its power.

WoW is also a good example of what happens when hastily added QoL features that conflict with the core game's design philosophy can erode the game's core principles. One of the original lead designers of that game said, "There's a contract between the game and the player, where the only way to attain power is through time and skill. Anything that allows you to attain power outside of this, such as paid character boosts, br...

I appreciate how your team is able and willing to experiment with traditional ARPG trends and mechanics. I'd imagine being a new title and dev team gives you more freedom, since you're not making a D4, where players are either from D3 and expect GRift-like mechanics, or from D2, who expect actual itemization beyond "Damage on Tuesdays," or "green arrow = good."

LP, WW, and Item Factions have, so far, been extremely successful innovations, which I love to see. CoF in particular is amazing, because it's very empowering to SSF players, or people who aren't a fan of trading (me), but still allows for an AH to exist. I've quit a PoE league earlier than I wanted to before, simply due to not wanting to be assed with trading in that game, and am lacking in the skills to play with the SSF handicap. As powerful as CoF is, I'd imagine MG has a higher ceiling--and that's okay. CoF is powerful enough that I don't feel like I'm shooting myself in the foot by eschewing from the game's eco...

I get the impression that the current algorithm simply sorts items from largest to smallest, totally ignoring the item type, because checking the item type would greatly complicate the code and lead to sorting failures (inability to fit all items) and slow sorting (could be orders of magnitude more sort comparisons).

But adding a step that alphabetically sorts the 1x1 items related to each other would be useful, and could be done as a post processing step after all 1x1 slot placements have been decided.

So the API is available now, but as a "closed beta", e.g. with controlled access? And if so, is there any way we could request access, or is there still more time to pass until it is available for wider use?

Ah, thank you for correcting me. I went back to check, and you are right. The reviews were indeed in regards to Tencent. I saw the year 2022 and didn't bother to properly check, my bad.
