Mysterious telephone calls, missing padlocks, electrical problems, extra-terrestrial lights, phasing cats....I dunno Woldan, sounds dangerous to be around you.

Since Might is king of all (dps, healing, Fortitude, pack space) then I will likely pump that across all classes. Following that I will simply choose whichever secondary stat applies to the classes and increase that. Everything else will likely stay at baseline.

My ways are mysterious and unexplained. Let your mind be at peace.

^I just gave you six likes to force you to keep entertaining me.

Isnt this where we are supposed to whine that the Barb armor wont protect his bare midriff and its only exposed for titillation purposes? Which way is the wind blowing today?

Amen brother. And for the love of god, I hope the inventory auto-stacks items that are the same.

I thought you were going to name your character Kirby or Hoover (iirc)? Personally, I'm going to name mine Dyson, and I'm going to roll through the game suctioning up everything that's not nailed down and tossing it into my infinite stash. Hehe, Hoover has a nice ring to it but I may have to jack your Dyson idea. They suck better! I usually find it irritating to have to pick up every soda can and ashtray ala FO:NV & D:OS (seriously, go to hell with those seashells ) so maybe someone can mod in some kind of "loot all" option that allows the user to pick up everything in a certain radius or something similar?

I don't think PoE will have the condition described by the OP, in fact I think it could be opposite. Since we can literally carry every single piece of loot in the game they will either have to greatly devalue the loot or greatly increase the costs for all purchasable items. Otherwise the economy will be utterly broken and you will be swimming in cash very quickly. Imo, the inventory system will require players to loot everything just to keep up with the devaluation and be able to buy things.

My bad.

Theres no thumbs down option. We will hilariously modify your behavior with Likes instead. Rofl.

Thread closed.

In an objective based reward system, how do two opposing objective work themselves out? Say objective one is "Clear the cave." and the other is "Clear the cave for farmer Bob". If you complete the first one then naturally the other one is redundant. Since apparently Fallout did this, what happens to the path not taken? It just never comes up I assume? If you did one, the second will never be presented to you, right? Do both solutions then offer the exact same rewards and xp?

I was thinking something similar but doesn't it seem like a lot of extra work to program for every possible approach?

Im interested to see how "objective based xp" will work in an open world system. In a game like SRR its no problem. Its very linear and you are guided from location to location. The devs can easily reward at and everyone will be at exactly the anticipated level at the anticipated location. With a game like PoE where one of the pillars is "exploration" I cant quite wrap my head around how it will work. For example, lets ay Im out bushwacking and I come across 3-4 little lizard dudes standing outside a cave entrance. I kill them and enter the cave. A few chamber in and I encounter a immature Wyrm, which I kill and loot for its scales. I leave and a little while later I encounter a farm. Farmer Bob wants me to go kill a Wyrm that's been stealing his sheep. What happens here? Does my journal auto-update because the Wyrm is already dead? Does the farmer quest cease to exist and instead I was awarded some random "Clear the cave of Wyrms" journal entry and xp at the time I killed the Wyrm? As an aside, I really dislike when a quest completes that I didn't even know I was doing. Anyway, will be interesting to see how it works out.

I see... But not to worry, the value of loot has been nerfed to the ground so the developers could kill the monster they just created (carrying unlimited loot). So we have that going for us.

The unlimited inventory was specifically designed to allow players to literally "loot everything in sight" without the "inconvenience" of having to walk back and forth to do so.

Hmm, maybe a wizard did it?

But these are exceptions that are easily remedied. No doubt its the easier approach. Imo, developers shouldn't waste time programming around a very small percentage of gamers that "cants helps themselves" from breaking the game...for themselves. That's why we wind up with things like restricted resting, no kill xp, unlimited inventory, etc...

My grandmother waged war with grasshoppers. Every day she would walk around her house patrolling her rose bushes, and whenever she would encounter one she would calmly take her shoe off and beat it to death.

Why does killing every creature break the game? Aren't they all hand placed and finite? If you know EXACTLY the number of mooks and EXACTLY the XP rewards for each, how do you fail to balance the game appropriately? Are we pretending the developers forgot to do the math? Also, why doesn't stealthing or diplomating just flag them as unkillable? Thus removing the scourge to all gaming that are the 0.5% of single player gamers that that will stealth/diplomat and then go back and kill everything.

Wait, how would you even know that you left one single monster alive in the corner of some cave way back at the beginning?

Have you completed the Pledge Management process?

Yeah, that's a terrible WW.

That looks awesome, enjoy your vacation. Im totally not jealous at all.
