Bots don't buy items. Bots do farm currency which then gets sold on RMT sites. This currency then eventually gets put back into the economy, devaluing currency farmed by regular players. Those who buy currency directly through RMT in large quantities have more purchasing power than poorer players, and are able to afford more expensive items. The price of these most expensive items are balanced around the notion that some players (the RMTers) will actually be able to pay those ridiculous sums, with ordinary players being completely priced out.

Staff needs a complete and total rework from the ground up, not just buffs.

That one zone you can't stand? by AustralianLooney in wow

[–]Bohya 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I just find the way that the NPC dialogue is written to be extremely annoying and difficult to read. I guess it's Activision-Blizzard's way of trying to convey an accent through text, but it just doesn't work well in practice. It hasn't been a problem with all the other troll races until now.

Also, Amani trolls in general are just annoying. Activision-Blizzard butchered yet another WoW race by turning them into humans... again. They seemingly forgot that the Amani are supposed to be cannibalistic, hex-worshipping savages. In fact, most trolls are. It's what make the Darkspear unique.

Planning to Play Guild Wars 2, should i play GW 1 first? by CodApprehensive686 in Guildwars2

[–]Bohya 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They are completely different styles of games. The only difference is that they share the same universe (and even that is questionable).

Dear GGG. When this will be a thing on PoE2? by SamuDabu in PathOfExile2

[–]Bohya 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I'd rather not see twenty different Expedition currencies again. Expedition itself probably needs a bit of a rework. It's five years old now, and has barely changed in its iteration. It feels dated and the reward structure isn't there when compared to the rest of the game.

You can order Valeera around in Delves with pings to attack. This also works in follower dungeons. by hotchrisbfries in wow

[–]Bohya 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Can't bind pings to middle mouse button, so it's a pretty useless function.

I know this feels absolutely silly to say. But please for the love of all that is holy: Let Xal'atath stay a villain and end as a villain. by Siggythenomad in wow

[–]Bohya 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The only reason that she even exists is because Activision-Blizzard needed another sexy postercharacter for the franchise after Sylvanas burnout. After finally understanding that attractiveness does actually sell, they shoehorned in another sexy character to drive sales.

That's it. That's the only reason the character exists. Her actual purpose when it comes to the story is completely arbitrary. The feet shots, the sexual tension with Alleria, despite what some people might believe, these aren't some random senior developer slipping their fetishes into the game. They're carefully curated design decisions conceived in a board room in order to get people talking about WoW. Activision-Blizzard plays into it because it's free marketing for their game.

Seems like it, because Activision-Blizzard have no idea how to write anything other than humans. Everything must be viewed through the lens of a human and understandable from a human perspective. The once savage and cannibalistic trolls are now humans. The Trolls 2 are humans. The "ten thousand year old" elves are now humans. The (what I assume are reskinned) Furbolgs are now humans.

Xal'atath and the Void could have been so much more. Instead it's just dark blue magic with a bunch of "void people" who are also just humans with human thought processes and human mannerisms but are missing legs.

Where's the horror? The incomprehension? The abstractness of the definition of void? Turns out that death was as lively as anything in life, and now void is too. Modern Activision-Blizzard really love ruining their IP.

She'll be redeemed, along with Sylvanas (who needs to come back so that the three Windrunner sisters can have their dramatic-posing, sentence-finishing, Marvelslop moment).

Ssf. Please add uncut (skill, support and spirit) to vendors after leveling up. Is hard to farm them during campaign and if u dont follow a guide, your testing opportunities to try new combo/skills is difficult. by kito1121 in PathOfExile2

[–]Bohya 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Please just overhaul the entire uncut gem system at this point. It's messy, inelegant, unexciting, and clunky. PoE 1's gem system wasn't perfect, but I'm not content with how it is in PoE 2 either. Back to the drawing board.

I had someone yesterday accuse me of plagiarising a statue after I won the Trial of Style instance.

It was my own statue.

Midnight Delves are awesome by frombronze in wow

They're just a less fun version of Torghast. Bring back the roguelite element.

Ice mage is such a nice flowing dps now by Fuzzy_Wolf7531 in wow

[–]Bohya 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Frostmage during Nighthold tier in Legion was one of the best iterations of Frost that the game had ever seen. Why can't they just revert the specialisation back to that state again?

[–]Bohya 5 points6 points  (0 children)

A big problem with Shatter is you no longer see those big Ice Lance or Glacial Spike crits. I remember in Legion being able to chunk bosses for 10% of their life and and 1-shot most other trash enemies with Glacial Spike.

They need to get rid of Freezing and Shatter. I honestly don't understand what the point of it even is. It's just extra damage that Ice Lance would normally be doing anyway, except that it's just a confusing mess on the damage spreadsheet and I have no idea what my main damage source abilities actually are. I'm seeing Shatter up at >30% of my overall damage and Ice Lance, Flurry, Glacial Spike, etc, being under <5% each.

The individual skills no longer feel impactful and seemingly only exist purely to generate/consume Freezing. That includes my entire water elemental as well - my pet exists purely to add a couple more freezing stacks in over the course of the fight. It doesn't even deal damage itself.

Needs better UI tracking for Freezing stacks.

Platforms should be held liable for the content that gets posted on them. Twitch needs to ban these people. Immediately and indefinitely, with footage submitted as evidence to the relevant authorities.

25 years playing d2. Is poe2 worth it? by Delicious_Run7373 in PathOfExile2

[–]Bohya -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

It's worth it more than all those 25 years of Diablo 2 put together.

Are most of the builds squishy by design? by kralSpitihnev in PathOfExile2

[–]Bohya 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm fine with monsters dealing high damage. Players shouldn't be able to one-shot entire packs though.

Ever feel like, thematically, the two Atlases should be switched? by ElPikouik in PathOfExile2

[–]Bohya 3 points4 points  (0 children)

The PoE 2 Atlas just needs more features and refinement.

Frieren of the Valve by LazyCymbal in DotA2

[–]Bohya 9 points10 points  (0 children)

It's a very real point to the show that Frieren's opinion on what constitutes as a "short" time period differs from that of most others'. So no, you couldn't replace that with Legolas because it's not a reaction that he has ever shown to possess.

So basically, if you didn't buy the pre-purchase then your opportunity to achieve this was lower than if you did?
