To each their own.

Exactly, yes, a thousand times yes. So let me avoid the things I find shitty if it serves no purpose. I mean, if diversity is your thing, by all means. Go nuts, play the map system like it's a piano, but let me grind my tier 14 springs or tier 11 dry peninsula in piece without having to constantly wait for hours to trade a significant amount or pay through the nose.

And I honestly don't care about the guardians since it'll play like a slideshow on my computer any way. If possible, I'd just avoid them completely. Same reason I don't do Atziri or hall of champions.

But let us at least fix the lazy luck system and allow for chaining of maps that we like. If they're going to make the endgame grind extremely long and tedious, the proper thing for ggg to do would be to allow us to at least choose the implements with which to flagellate ourselves.

RNG favors the casual.

Thanks Mr. Trump for that opinion.
On a completely unrelated note, is there a way to block posts from a specific user so they won't show up any more?

I dare say that's not an opinion, but a fact.

A hardcore PoE player will attain his goal no mater what happens, due to sheer brute-forcing of the systems in place.

A casual is less fortunate, but he is permitted a chance at attaining them even with very little investment due to the nature of RNG.

An RNG based system clearly favors casuals where as a linear deterministic progression favors a pure
time-investment.

There is a forum user block script somewhere, but i was never inclined to utilize it. A google search might yield results.
I think Ignarsoll is the creator.(if i got his name right)

Most people on these forums that back-up the "linear deterministic progression" route and the removal of RNG wrongfully assume reward ratio's would stay the same as in an RNG driven system. Which is blissfully ignorant of what GGG would actually be forced to do in such a scenario.

Because it has some very interesting stuff going on in it, and it has a definitive way to feel progress.

I don't get as deep into maps as some of the others in the office, but Atlas of Worlds makes me very keen to get up to mapping in the next league.

I never know how to react when developers and such act positive about their own creation, it feels kind of... Plastic..

But I'm sure that you're as enthusiastic and excited of Atlas of worlds as anyone else, in fact I am fairly certain you're almost as hyped as I am.

I can't answer.

The only way Id say no is if shaper orbs are too difficult to come by.

YES

Finally something worth playing. Fck you lab.

Hey Carl,

Glad to hear you are excited about the new expansion too and are happy with the hard work you put into it.
Could you DEVs @GGG do us a fovour and post your charakters and your progression on a news update in the middle/end of the league?
I think it would be very interesting to know how you are doing in the expansion on your own characters - Thanks.


OT: Yes, i am hyped about the new expansion.
Because i can create artificially super hard maps with more than 8 mods through the Atlas, because of the overlapping mechanic of cartographers sextant orbs - maybe the relation between risk/reward may be way off on those but i think it will still be a lot of fun running them.

Also i am hyped about the higher map drop rate you can achieve for completing/progressing through the atlas.
