I actually check this for entertainment. This might actually shock you beyond your comprehension but the forums and the game are two different entities.

Indeed! Like IQ! As in, how everyone sees IQ as being one singular scope, but in reality, there are people with higher IQs, and then there's those with lower IQs who think sticking around forums of games they no longer play is a unique form of entertainment! Good for you, bless your simple heart :D Cheers.

You are reaching, but nice try. <3
Some people stick around because they see potential in something but doesn't like the current state. If they fixed the QOL issues then it would be a game I like to play. However you, a person who thinks this game is 100% perfect, cannot accept opinions that differ from yours.

My goal of this post was out boredom and bringing an attention to a problem that I personally needs to be fixed.

You might think the current inventory situation is awesome to the point of orgasms, but I personally do not. If they fixed it, I would be happy.

Are you sure he said soul and not wallet?

Nothing wrong with them making money as long as they provide decent product. They really need QOL improvements.

Why ? I do recipes with those rares :(. And also seeing jibberish pop up of monsters is just the way we actually litter things in real life.

If you really recipe those rares you are a savage man who I would never cross IRL. What a beast.

OP, please dont play skyrim.. You will be stuck hoarding there forever..

Or fallout 4 who have "building base disorder" - poor fucks are building bases there for decades..

Sometimes I'm reminded just how culturally insular gamers can be. And how unlikely to google things they don't know. The really funny thing is how relevant her kookie little fad is to this thread...but you know, don't let expanding your horizons a little get in the way of otherwise pointless rant.

He thought googling something culturally insular gamer posted is a waste of time.

It is actually a cleverly disguised rehabilitation mechanism for people who suffer from Hoarding disorder.

Ooh, that sounds awesome. I wonder if I'll be able to play Skyrim in a somewhat normal way after spending a few months in PoE?

My hoarding is just rediculous in that game. I can't progress until I've picked-up every single takeable object, looted every building, pickpocketed every NPC and picked every plant and fruit in an area.

In my case it isn't because I want the stuff, but more a case of me wanting to keep the areas tidy and in my opinion Skyrim areas are only properly tidy once all the litter is picked-up. And by litter, I mean anything that can be taken.

To facilitate this, I always mod the game to have unlimited carry-capacity, but eventually I reach a point where I'm carrying so much the game freezes for a few seconds every time I pick-up a new item, making the game unplayable so I stop.

Every time I start a playthrough I promise myself I will not do that, only to slip back into the habit within the first 10 hours or so.

GGG has a strong desire to punish you for picking up items which is exactly why they have not implemented a feature where you can offload items that belong into a speciality tab such as the Currency, Maps, Essences, Divinations, ect tabs with a hotkey or a button. They could but they want to punish you for picking up and trying to keep things by making you spend a good portion of your gameplay manually placing things in their respective tabs.

Hi!

What you might be talking about is auto-stashing, which completely negates the purpose of a couple of things: 1) the purpose of a player's inventory, 2) the experience of obtaining goods / accumulating wealth. Which in an aRPG are vital, and from my experience since D2 days, extremely rewarding.
