Looting -- The official thread for discussing the loot system. Updated 18th March, 2013.

Just some thoughts:

1. If they were to making a game they wanted to play themselves they were going to play it only by themself and with close friends aka the game wont be open to public.

But the game is public. It is open to all kinds of audience. It is open to both praise and criticism. It is open to feedback. Feddback given not only by the slef-entitled pathethic so called "hardcorers" but also by prosumers and consumers. By all.

So stop the crap with this "argument" because it's bulshit.


2. Stop making bets and taking high risks with the dev's money.
It's not your money to decide what you want to do with them, if it's enough or not.
It's not your company so you can decide where you'd take it.
Only the devs have access to accounting, income, expenses and stuff like that so don't you so called pathetic self-entitled "hardcorer" make assumptions on how much money they have or how your only pathetic "hardcorer' money will be enough to support the company and the game just fine.

3. There are hardcore players that don't like ffa-loot. Yes, hardcore.
But you're saying that if someone doesnt like ffa or if someone agrees with loot-options they aren't hardcore anymore? The game suddenly is not for him "hardcoress" anymore?
Comedy, i tell you ;)

All i see lately in this topic are some pathetic beings who dream they are so "hardcore" and go to inconceivably lenghts in proving to be even more sick-pathetic.

That is simple evidence contrary to your line of thinking. The devs actions has always spoke in favor of balancing their vision with a great game popular among hardcore gamers of all types.

If they wanted to cater to a super small group this entire game would be nothing but cutthroat/hardcore. That is hardcore without alt F4 transfer me to softcore BS.

At this point, I feel like just saying "You sound like a bigot" in regards to that last line and being done with it, but I won't.

You are entitled to your opinion and I am fine with that. No matter how wrong I consider it to be.

I just wish GGG wouldn't listen to it. Oh well. Tis life.

WTF? Bigot?

Bigot: person who is obstinately or intolerantly devoted to his or her own opinions and prejudices; especially : one who regards or treats the members of a group with hatred and intolerance

I would say that the person who wants to force their own playstyle on everyone and calls anyone who wants options a whiny baby would be MUCH MUCH more of a bigot there sir. I would say Vooodu has shown that he is a major bigot, and you are not far off with your recent ramblings.

WOW. Almost 1000 pages of people complaining over looting and insulting each over personal views of how it should work. This is worse than the US congress. I must have a say in this thread of verbal debauchery.

If i could add my 2 cents. I would mainly prefer a looting system like diablo 3. But either way i would prefer a single looting system over a bunch of options.

Even tho i prefer a diablo 3 loot system, i could live with a diablo 2 loot system aswell. The entire ideology of letting people choose how looting works seems dysfunctional in a game like Path of Exile. It also show that the game devs will change their basica game concepts to suit everyones taste. Which is not something myself would want to see in a RPG style of game.

Its sad that we all can't play the same game together and have fun. But, im very interested to see when and how they will implement these options. I see even more problems arising for even more options. Just my 2 cents.

...Ugh, bigot? ...I don't think so.


Im a foul mouth, degenerate, stupid ass, stubborn son of a bitch..


Not a bigot. Hell, most of you are no better/worse than me. Only difference is our view of how loot should me. Nothing more and nothing less.

If you have something you need to say, PM me. I still glance at this thread. But, as of now i will only post when people ask/mention me. So, just get off me dawg. :D

Its not like we are all mortal enemies.

Not to mention a marked gift for understatement.

Except for the part where anybody who disagrees with you is a stupid, whiny crybaby, eh? Why leave the best part out? Why the hesitance, the reluctance? What have you done with the real Vooodu?!

Read the definition of bigot that was supplied and you will see that you are indeed a bigot when it comes to this topic.

I would say a lot of people in this thread fall into that category, but you have firmly planted yourself into this category by constantly belittling people who simply asked for options.

It makes arguing/debating unpleasant. It has more to do with "stay on-topic" rather than the feelings of the person you are attacking.

I could say a bunch of mean or rude things to anyone, but it wouldn't further my goals at all.
