I'm thinking OP is talking about these?

Quote from ImmortalSol

What they could do is add variations of the same type of unique with a power that's popular. If they don't like one's they can choose a couple of other ones that look different but can roll the same thing, like there are different variations of weapons that all count as a 1 handed weapon.

Quote from ImmortalSol

And my stance on that they should focus instead on making legendaries that are specifically hated for their appearance look more appealing, rather than just removing what I think is the more important unique concept. They should be working on patching up the uniques that do not look stunning to the large majority of people, rather than resorting to removing an aspect of the game to compromise not making some uniques as compelling and appealing as they should be.

And that's just the sacrifice they'd have to make, either some players dislike a specific unique appearance but likes its effect, the best they can do is adjust that if there's a significant portion of dislikes, and/or always be improving visual appearances so they are appealing to all, here they have room to improve, or they completely remove an appropriate and some would think important aspect of the game in letting all uniques' appearances interchangeable, but there's nothing they can adjust to make up for that here however.

What I can see is them making the simpler approach which would be Transmog because it would probably take more resources to make uniques all look good and revamp certain ones. But I hope at some point they begin to address this issue if it is genuinely of validity. The good thing is this change can be implemented after it's already out the way it is now, the way which devalues unique visual appearances, in my opinion. Maybe it doesn't. We'll see.

I am only condescending when others troll me or do the same. I know that attracts even more people do jump in, but I could care less I'm keeping my points valid. This is one of the only points that's been made so far that holds valid to me. And I addressed it with how I would approach it, that's all.

Quote from Ethezial

I don't understand how replacing the look of an item on my character can have such a drastic effect on YOUR gameplay.


So I want these boots, right? They let me move through enemies, awesome. But here's the thing. They look stupid with the other Legendaries I'm wearing that suit my build. So in your world I have to just let it go because it ruins the item's "uniqueness". So in your world, I have two options: deal with the fact that these boots look dumb with my other gear, or sacrifice the stat I want for something that looks better, but stat wise doesn't complement the build I'm aiming for. Nothing about that sounds logically sound to me.

I've read your posts, and I get that you're passionate about this topic. (On a side note, a lot of your posts come across extremely condescending which is what led me to post in here in the first place). But your logic, while it may make perfect sense to you, makes no sense to me or a lot of people in here.

You would still be able to transmog the boots to look like normal boots for your class from the 10+ tiers that come with normal gear. You just wouldn't be able to make them look like another legendary.

At least, that's the line of reasoning I support.

Didn't see it at Blizzcon. I thought it was pretty cool though =P

Quote from ImmortalSol

The same response, because you made the same argument, again. Prior to them making all uniques have worthy stats you had to sacrifice your stats to look a certain way. Fact.

Now. After ALL unique items are worthy and powerful it is completely unnecessary to have to Transmog because you're NOT sacrificing stats anymore since they are both as powerful. This means that if YOU find one particular item aesthetically pleasing, you can use that unique item and NOT need to Transmog because that item is just as powerful as other uniques.

Third, I stated that you can simply limit the items you can Transmog, Transmog would still be a feature and still be a selling point, while perserving the individuality of 'Unique' items.

Fourthly, the game is changing, it's changing as we speak, the game will ALWAYS be changed. Face it. Just don't keep saying the same invalid argument over and over again.

Quote from ImmortalSol

Answer the question, would you let other players change the appearance of the monsters you see to what they want? If not, then it's the same thing with items to me.

Quote from Ethezial

Why does everyone keep arguing with this guy? LOL He's not going to change his views, just let him go play in his little sandbox.

But you must be willing to change your view so I'm assuming you're supporting this.

Quote from DoomSlayers

I won't go into too much details since I don't think we can discuss about it (yet). In the video, we saw that the reward for doing certain things were really good. (I'll edit tomorrow once it's officially out)

I fear that organized groups will split into 4 players seeking those rewards. If I saw correctly, it gave over 300k XP and 100k Gold. While I don't have the details on how it's done or how long it takes, they could just individually complete their task (rushing to the objective) and everyone would get those rewards. That would make over 1.2 million XP and 400k gold every few minutes. With the introduction of Clans and Guilds, it would be easier than ever to do it

The consequences would most likely be Blizzard nerfing it into oblivion. I don't want that to happen. Increased reward is fun, but I fear that it will be abused as much as back then (XP abuse at Zulten Kulle, etc)

(Worrying about something not final! I didn't put Spoilers because I think I didn't say anything that could spoil)
