Automated currency pickup would make me so happy

Grim Internals auto pick up feels so good, wish we had such an option in poe.

+1

yep, op is right.

actually i would go deeper and even asked an existence of wisdom scrolls and portal scrolls. its outdated shit.

its just some [Removed by Support] think that it is a fun part of expirience - to pickup every shitty wisdom scroll to eventually get carpal tunnel

but i want to disappoint you, op. nothing will change. this game's fucking design is based around adding layers upon layers of discomfort to the player.

[Removed by Support] here: i think that games consist of decisions. and decisions are based on actions enforced on a player.

having players decide to waste time to collect certain currency is such a decision. you take that away, you can also safely remove the outcome of that currency and the currency as well.

I actually do not understand this argument, could you elaborate?

I enjoy crafting with exalts (bench, slamming, anything) and I enjoy picking up exalts. No time wasted, just one click every 1-5 hours of play. But great crafting.
The way I understood your argument, now we could "safely remove the outcome of that currency and the currency as well" (and I am pretty sure that's not your opinion).

I kinda enjoy picking up an exalted shard, but not so much. I found like 5 all league, so when I see one, I am like "huh -.- do I care enough to trade this for chaos... nah... let it rot in my stash"

Imagine this: Exalts are a 100 times more common but say "has a 1% chance to enchant an item with a new property" or can craft multi-mod on an item for 400 exalts. I would hate picking those up. I'd like to collect 400 somehow to start a multi-modded item or enrich some of my items with a new affix. But I would like nothing about the process.


I guess my main point is this: Making pick-up tedious is not the only and not the best way to engage players and to enable player choices.

Why not? A reasoning would be great to see if the issue can be taken care of while pleasing those who want it. Otherwise it's just a hard no and won't help anyone.

Actually, I kind of don't care anymore. The core game is nothing more than a loot simulator, walk here, walk there, click here click there, collect your loot. In fact, having currency being auto picked would fit the game just right in this pathetic state.

Step 1: Can you name one ARPG that still is fun for you?
Step 2: If no: Somehow this does not seem to be your genre, maybe look for something you have more fun with.
Step 2: If yes: Since you have given up on this game and GGG, why not move on that other fun ARPG? You could find something you enjoy while those who enjoy/belive in PoE continue doing that.

What are you trying to accomplish with your post? Why are you posting in a PoE-Forum if you believe the game is just a loot simulator? The one goal this post could work towards would be: Make everybody who has fun playing PoE see the error in their way. Why would someone dedicate his time to such a goal?

the currency on the end of low value chart such as transmutes or augments has a value because some players choose to pick them and other do not.
remove this choice and you would have no value in those low end currency types.

Diablo 2 is still fun. Mobs actually possess some danger in there, you can easily get stunlocked by some mobs and you are dead, you actually need to position your character. You can't just teleport into a few monster packs and start casting and watch everything melt right in front of you like you can do in Poe. You will most likely get stunned you will die. Loot and minmaxing your character is much more meaningfull than here.
Are games like PoE is what defines all APRG genre now? I don't even look at it as an APRG anymore. It's a clicking instant gratification simulator.
Look, I loved PoE 2013-2015. I want it back. Not exact same of course, but I want the aspect of danger back. It was nowhere as bad as it is now. I am expressing my opinion on the game, addressing my experience with it. Yes, it's negative and I am aware of it. The forum shouldn't be just full of happy fanboys that love braindead clicking all day. I provide an alternative feedback on the current state of the game and I believe it can affect the game on the long run even though if it's very minor. I know I am not the only one who looks at PoE as a loot simulator. There is hope left that one day people will get bored of clicking around all day and we ll finally start experiencing a much more meaningful gameplay with monsters actually doing something to you instead of just providing you loot that you don't really need anyway.

I guess that is not a problem we are facing right now ;)

But your other points, I can totally get behind that, thx.
I am trying ssf and not following any guide during this flashback, brought quite a bit of danger and meaningfulness back for me personally #offtopic
