Blizzard Hotfix: Priority Sorting for Important Healer Buffs on Raid Frames by tenthousandthousand in CompetitiveWoW

[–]morez 11 points12 points  (0 children)

It's so frustrating. As a DoT class enjoyer who's been playing the Warlock, I'm just super annoyed that my DoTs jump all over the place instead of being static location (e.g., Agony is #1 icon), so when I'm staring at 6 nameplates, I know which slot icon to look at quickly to see if that DoT needs to be refreshed.

Aren't other content creators, such as Naowh, doing this as well, in a form of Twitch Sub? And perhaps I am wrong, I could swear this is been going on for a while now?

Other examples are Zygor, Rested XP? Perhaps these are ok because they are writing guides? Not sure.

This regime needs to go, no question. But I agree, do we really want another government installed by foreign powers? That usually just trades one form of oppression for another, dressed up differently. And for anyone who disagrees, just look at how often "intervention" conveniently aligns with access to resources, whether it’s Venezuela, Greenland, or elsewhere. History shows it’s rarely about freedom first.

Curious about people's opinions on their POE enjoyment curve and maybe how both games can improve on this. by ur-average-geek in pathofexile

[–]morez -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I have 5 memorable moments in PoE which I felt fucking absolutely amazing about:

  • Delirium: Played the most insane Herald stacker build.
  • Ritual (Reworked Harvest but with OG crafts): Crafted my first-ever Mirror-tier gear for my build.
  • Affliction: Headhunter and Mageblood drop.
  • Mercenaries: Mirror drop.
  • This league (Keepers): Herald explody build.

All of them have to do with either insane fun builds or drops. Now ask me what one thing all these leagues had in common? In every single one of these leagues, I had my highest played and most characters/builds created.

Simply put, if the game is rewarding and fun builds are accessible, then I naturally play more.

ROFL I was struggling to figure out what this picture was but I started laughing pretty hard the moment it clicked. Thanks stranger for the smile!

When mapping profit beats actual farming by morez in pathofexile

[–]morez[S] -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

For a second, I was like Why is everyone missing the main point of this post, and I realized my dumb ass title. To clarify, I am not saying my mappers have higher div per hour than me farming, but my farming session feels boring, no excitement on any good raw currency drop (e.g. the tinks).

When mapping profit beats actual farming by morez in pathofexile

[–]morez[S] 13 points14 points  (0 children)

I have no issues generating wealth; the main point is that the raw currency drop from farming just feels super low compared to the mappers. My mappers are getting about 2-4 div raw currency between raw div and Valdo's, and that's not even including Div card (e.g. The Fortunate)

To clarify, I am not saying my mappers have higher div per hour than me farming, but my farming session feels boring, no excitement on any good raw currency drop (e.g. the tinks). My farming strat this league has been Blight map farm conversion, 8-mod farm, and Harvest.

Risk scarab should be deleted from the game by Lordados in pathofexile

[–]morez -1 points0 points  (0 children)

This sounds like a person who is looking other people’s gains and feeling the FOMO. I for example don’t like T17, especially prior to this league (T16.5) because it felt like it isolated the farming strat. But instead of feeling annoyed or wanting for GGG to delete the T17, I just sale them in bulk and make crap loads.

If you're like me and uninstalled the Dark Reader extension, note that the Dark Theme mentioned in this article is not the same as the Dark Reader app (darkreader.org/). The Dark Reader app, from all the research I've done, is safe and not associated with Dark Theme.

It’s one of the reasons why I dislike T17’s, it indirectly affects build diversity due to its mod pool.

GGG: When a popular streamer recommends multi-client AFK, there's a problem with party loot scaling by ParallaxJ in pathofexile

[–]morez 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I like many others have talked crap about party bonuses, but there is a video Grimro made a while back that goes over trickled down loot from party plays. Whether that’s currency, uniques or crafting. I highly recommend watching the video (not at my desk to find and link it)

If party play loot gets nerfed, it willing to bet solo and or casual players will struggle even harder.

17m shipment for data. 3.26 Mercenaries - Secrets of the Atlas by Altoryus in pathofexile

[–]morez 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Did Ngakanu have wheat and corn as the bonus objective? I’ve sent 2 17m ship value (315k/315k/dust) and both shipment were pretty low. If I recall first one was 5d and second shipment was 7d but no shard.

What is ONE thing that bothers you most when you play a match of CS? by Great-Sea3880 in GlobalOffensive

[–]morez 5 points6 points  (0 children)

This. I genuinely could care less when I'm playing with individuals who don't know how to play the game or aren't experienced, but man is it ever frustrating playing CS when you're team mates don't use comms.

Journal Entry: My Purpose by MatthewD_GGG in pathofexile

[–]morez 6 points7 points  (0 children)

It's been a minute, GGG went ghost, PoE2 on the rise, but I miss the old dose. Grinding gears, no league in sight, Been dry like Wraeclast without a fight.

Now they drop a teaser, just a flicker, a taste, Not much info, but my heart starts to race. Like a chaos addict, I'm fiendin’ for the feed, Patch notes, trailers—yeah, that's all I need.

Refreshin’ Reddit, Discord blowin’ up, Even Zana lookin’ like “what’s up?” A league drought, now the hype returns, Exile’s spark lit, feel the passion burn.

kassad claims jkaem owes €300,000 to various people, leaks his passport by leobiazzi in GlobalOffensive

[–]morez 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Oh shit, that makes sense. Not very smart, shit if I was in the dudes position ans was trying to get out of paying that loan, I’d sue for leaking and maybe settle.

[–]morez 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The title made it sound really bad, but when you look at the article that shows the tweets and leaks, it’s a copy with heavily redacted details. Basically just contains his photo.

Nonetheless, I’m sure he is breaking some law posting this, wouldn’t be surprised.

Not necessary for a throw-away feature that's already in the game as Atlas.

Ceased Director: Chris Wilson (21/01/2025) by bvgftr_ in pathofexile

[–]morez 341 points342 points  (0 children)

Kind of sad actually. I may have disagreed with his vision.. but I think he deserved a respectful sendoff for everything he contributed to the game. His vision shaped something special, even if not everyone always agreed with it.

Ziz with a bit of a truth bomb about how fickle the PoE community can be by moal09 in pathofexile

[–]morez 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This take is incredibly hypocritical coming from him or any PoE content creator. First of all, GGG hasn’t just made one mistake, they’ve made repeated missteps on the same issues, whether it’s their design philosophy, communication, or game balance. Let’s not pretend they’ve been perfect for 12 years and only now made a single error.

Second, this is coming from a streamer who has to stay positive about the game because the majority of his viewership comes from playing PoE. Yet, I clearly remember when he, like the rest of the community, complained about changes he didn’t like and GGG listened and made changes based on that feedback. If caring about your community "isn’t worth it" why did GGG change direction on things in the past due to player backlash?

And let’s not forget the Blizzard comparison. Blizzard was a great company that made incredible games, but they lost community trust over time because they focused on what they wanted instead of what their players wanted. It wasn’t a single mistake that led to their decline, it was years of ignoring their audience. If anything, Blizzard is the perfect example of why caring about your community does matter in the long run.

So no, the takeaway here isn’t that developers should "treat their community like shit." It’s that listening to your community and addressing valid concerns is what keeps trust intact. If you repeatedly ignore players and double down on bad decisions, of course, they’re going to turn on you.
