For the completionists in all of us, I'd like to see more "things" to achieve.
I would like to see a new class of "items" called "Collections". Think Zelda Twilight Princess. Or for more benefits, think of a Zynga game that lets you convert a completed set into a usable item - like an elixer.
These would be items we can loot, buy, give, trade OR just show off.
Features:
- a group of items that when all collected would make a complete "set".
- items can be looted off of mobs/bosses with similar although not so "difficult" rarity as Vanities or Legendary items.
- some items in a set are harder to obtain than others. Lucky elixers work for improving chance of a better item of this type.
- items can be traded, sold, given just like any other regular combat item. Ideally each would have a 3D model view-able in-game. But even if it was just a 2D picture on a menu screen would be a sufficient
- items have a base liquidation value >0
- a way is provided to display your collection as a set to others - as partial or complete set, or even or individual items
- nice to have: complete sets can be "turned in" for a unique usable item like an elixer, stim packs, special vanity or special combat item
Example Collections could be (feel free to pilfer examples from any number of Zynga games :-P): Space ores, precious gems, space bugs, robot parts, art, consumable liquids, preserved space food rations, ancient weapons, alien "clothing", etc..
