In the current state of game, what speaks against vacuum pickups?

More in favour of aoe/radial or group loot pickup example:click 1 scroll of wisdom and collect all other scrolls of wisdom inside a specific radius

Works fine in things like D3 and tbh is just a pure QiL upgrade

Not a fan of auto-vac pickup though

I'm not sure I get what you are saying, what is your point in regards to this topic?

Well OP is concerned about the amount of clicking in PoE and loot filters can definitely eliminate as much clicking as you want.

Anyway I'd hate automatically vacuuming exalts, takes the hype out of it dropping on the ground.

...reducing clicking in this game seems highly desirable.

That's not really a solution though. It doesn't solve the problem, it just hides it.

What do you do when you need the small currencies? You probably buy them from trade bots? Who maybe also farmed it with bots... is that really the better option than making picking up this small shitty currency hassle free?

Yeah, this is exactly what I'm asking for. Did you read the op? :')
Nothing should get auto picked up without any click, but one click should be enough to collect all "same" items.

Mass pick ups solves the wrong problem.

The main problem is there's entirely too much litter on the floor in the first place.

I believe if they changed their "let's create a landfill near every encounter" approach, it would drastically cut down on the server load and make the game smoother.

Who benefits when 99.999% of this litter is abandoned when a player moves on?

Cut the drops to only meaningful gear and don't generate all this garbage in the first place.

That needs to happen too, absolutely.
What do you suggest should be done about currency though?
You know... the one thing that's actually WORTH picking up?

God I hope they never add this to the game. I like the item jenga game I get to play, and skipping over certain things that I dont really need, or picking them up because I need it right now.

And how exactly would the introduction of this prevent you from doing any of what you just said? :)

The current trend is to slow the game down . What you are asking for , will speed it up. Every extra second counts toward delaying the players and not let them achieve their goals too fast and quit .

Yes this is slowing the game down. But it's doing so in a very very bad way arguably.

Can we at least have larger boxes? Like for me to decide what size? Why size restrictions even a thing in lootfilter settings?
