So stop with this "dictator"/"its their game" non-sense.

It is their game, not non-sense just a fact. They can do whatever they want to do with it (if that's healthy is a whole different story). Listening to feedback doesn't mean they should implement it, it's just listening and see if it fits with their thoughts about it. Maybe some people are just playing the wrong game, i know i am playing the right game, with (so-far) the right developments being done to improve it.

It seems to me that GGG needs to add some sort of loot monkey monster that steals loot off the ground in Solo games... gotta get that loot tension in solo play too, make it more engaging... I don't know about you guys, but I think that would make the game a lot more fun!

this post right here just demolished every whinebag on this thread.

I also would like to voice my opinion that this is a poorly thought out patch. I am fine with the timer, I am fine with the cutthroat FFA loot style despite the fact that I think more options to change these would be a good addition. My only problem with the most recent changes is the removal of the name plates. While I understand loot clutter was an issue the problem still isn't addressed. I still have a ton of loot clutter still, since maps increase only quantity. While I would love to stop fighting to loot my rares, sometimes I need to actually play the game before I loot. I hope that GGG changes this so that I can continue to enjoy this game with my friends, but right now it is unplayable. I am looking forward to a change to this in the near future.

you can put the Item name plates right back on.. its in the options "always highlight",, if you are referring to the countdown timer I have no idea why thats a big concern.

their is no need for instanced loot at this point, the new timer makes the perfect combination of everything and GGG shouldn't waste any more time on a change.

this is perfect, and thanks GGG. regardless of what you do you will have whiners.. I applaud you for finding the perfect middle ground though. and lets dead the instanced loot talk, I only supported it because I wanted everyone to have a better chance to get their loot not just the people who were more focused on ninja'ing then fighting.. with the increase in the timer and the less clutter without having the timer shown its perfect.

I got to see that it is an obvious republican vs democrat debate lying underneath.

Democrat: We should have the choice to play how we want.

Republican: NO! You cannot have the freedom of choice. It ruins the "feeling" of the game that hardcore players like us seek. Game was made for hardcore players, not carebears. Your proposed changes are killing the game!

Sums up the entire discussion, doesn't it?

really? you are bringing politics into this?

you do understand republicans are about leaving the choice with the person, not bigger government making the choice for everyone in a socialist shtfest right?

You can list them all you want. Nothings stopping you from forming you own group and playing how you want. Thats true freedom of choice.

Yeah there is. Lack of rule enforcement. /convo. You're wrong and don't want to admit it and would rather I just say "deal with it" is an okay answer. It's not.

LMAO.


No, im not wrong. And yes, DEAL WITH IT.

You always had a ton of options.

Anyway, this is no longer a feedback thread anymore, so here I am saying my goodbyes. Have fun with the cutthroat/hardcore loot system you always wanted in PoE.

I will..
