Asmongold twitch interview with Chris Wilson starting shortly

Link to a transcript? I don't want to sit through half an hour of "ehm, well" and so on for something I can read in a minute.

Then why is it constantly about Chris' vision? If it's not his vision doing this, WHO'S IS IT? You cannot tell me the guy who takes personal responsibility for the "vision" of the game has no hand in the changes. That simply not true.


who says its constantly about chris' vision?

chris is part of a team, he pays people to understand the game and work out how to progress it, fix it, develop it. they have a collective vision as a team, chris goes into these public interviews and takes responsibility in order to absorb the damage and focused negativity of the community. hes the team tank that protects his devs from personal attacks, but if you ask him a question on the exact details of the new league he has to go ask the guy whos leading the team in charge of developing that league, and if you ask him why x gem was changed in a certain way he probably has to go ask someone else who was dealing with those changes. if you ask him how poe2 is going theres probably a whole other team who are working out the skill rotations and damage numbers for the poe2 act4 boss while all this is going on.


if this was path of chris we wouldnt even have a softcore mode or allocated loot.




art is a conversation between the artist(s) and the audience. the audience and their opinion matters in that relationship, a lot, but the artist is the producer and the product must originate from the artists vision. the reason this game is worth us all being in this forum talking is because these devs had a great vision for a great game. its not wrong for them to have a vision, its essential.
I love all you people on the forums, we can disagree but still be friends and respect each other :)

A lot, probably majority of player base has been asking for an overhaul of trading for several years.
No update to trade manifesto. No new system. No changes. Nothing.

Majority of players pissed about Harvest being obliterated. No changes made.

Majority of players pissed recently about the upcoming patch. No changes made.

Majority of players LOVED deterministic crafting. Ok, Harvest was way too OP. But since then, any deterministic crafting has been nerfed again and again.

I certainly don't recall getting a survey, maybe you mean the majority of players in your living room?

Only because those who cry loudest are those you can see doesnt mean its true for majoritys.
I have no problems with any of those changes and would hate changes to trade (at least thoses changes the "majority" crys for like ah etc.).

What a great interview.

For a second there, I thought I was watching a Biden press conference.

when did it exist before harvest? it didn't. so why did anybody ever think it would last long?

I am reasonably certain (and I expect correction if I am mistaken) that Chris warned in advance that Harvest crafting was an experiment, and would likely NOT be adopted at end of league. Dunno why anybody expected otherwise. =9[.]9=

Asmongold? Really? He doesn't even play this game in any capacity. He's too busy throwing a tantrum over WoW.

I'm sorry but if you give this guy any air you're feeding the exact problem in gaming right now. Mentally ill manchildren who don't have a game specifically tailored 100% to them and will rage and say 'the community' has spoken. Splintering ad infinitum into smaller and smaller tribes that still happen to be the 'righteous majority' and caustically want to burn any game down that tells them sorry we aren't doing it your way. Make your own damn game if you're such a genius.

You get exactly what you deserve if you give this guy air. When are people going to stop being stupid and realize this. The common denominator in these communities isn't a design paradigm. It's mentally ill ragebait and people who have felt personally insulted passive aggressively wanting to burn down their old home because they didn't get their design. In a landscape of 1000 other people with mutually exclusive issues that lobby the same rhetoric.

No game can function this way and I point you to the common denominator if it wasn't obvious: Asmongold.

You don't encourage these 'streamer' celebrities. If they're caustic, you excommunicate, ban, and blacklist them.

EDIT: Was doing some research on the new builds after the nerf. Nah. Just nah. Asmongold is all about big boy bully mobs if he doesn't get his design philosophy on all counts. Nobody has the guts to stand up to this guy and call him out on his BS. Heaven help you if you disagree with him on something mechanically or philosophically he's got an undue influence, a big ego, and absolutely no sense. You know what, I'm not playing this league JUST because Chris decided to open the door to let this guy sniff around. Just not gonna do it. Congrats Chris. See you in PoE2 maybe. Gotta fight fire with fire when it comes to this particular influencer clown.
