The game pt.2

"lootable gear and streaming"

looting gear with random modifications would be nice for the game and really strong for content creation.

imagine you were streaming and you had a decent amount of viewers. doesn't that make it more exciting to loot something with a rare combination of modifiers? or will it get boring over time?

this is also powerful for hardcore and streaming hardcore. because now youll have to create your gear through out the leveling process.

the problem is a new system for items and crafting modifications onto items would have to be introduced into the game. which isn't easy.

farming gold while streaming isnt fun because there's nothing exciting about it. imagine faking excitement every wave in evg because you looted 30k gold.

opening loot boxes on stream is a double edged sword. because its funny to see someone who wasted 1k usd not get anything.

from another perspective it can be exciting when they do loot something. or..... is it still funny because they've wasted so much money to finally loot something?

"loot boxes"

i understand why the game has loot boxes.

but the game shouldn't have loot boxes anymore. unlocks are a quick fix that is very much appreciated.

but why does the game actually need to revolve around loot boxes still?

loot boxes were designed with a few things in mind. one of the things it was designed around was keeping the game a float. if loot boxes aren't consistently opened items wont be put into the game.

unlocked boxes does solve this issue. but what happens when unlocks are consistently being introduced into the game? what happens when vanities, and pets are consistently introduced into the game?.

the game in the current state sorta reminds me of a faucet thats been left on and forgotten.

locked and unlocked boxes honestly deletes a lot of content from the game. it also leaves a stain on arcane legends space in YouTube and twitch.

1st impressions are everything so when most people see loot boxes and progress pay walls they dont give it a chance.

youtube and twitch content that was uploaded will most likely stay there for ever. imagine you just saw a video of arcane legends from 8 years ago for the 1st time. you click the video and the content creator was opening locked crates. would this get you excited to play and do the same exact thing?

" junk items"

the reason why junk items exist is so that when you're mapping. your inventory slots will eventually become full. junk items are also good filler for all chest.

im not sure if they changed this recently. but if i remember correctly opening chest allowed you to exceed the inventory limit. this was by design.

slowly they started adding options to make opening inventory slots a lot more accessible. various tokens,tags, and coins can now be exchanged to open inventory slots.

in 2022 these junk items still do what they were designed to do and that is to fill your inventory slots.

i think cinco or justg asked the community once if we wanted to loot items or gold. the community back then voted in favor of gold.

looting gold strips the game of so much content for YouTube and twitch. it also stripped the game of a lot of possibilities.

im bringing this up because people want gear that drops as loot. but people dont understand that a lot of mechanics have to be redesigned. its not a easy fix . its a lot of layers they got to peel back and address before they actually change anything.

im not saying that they will. i just want people to understand.
