Why GGG hasn't implemented the extensibility of their loot filter into mouse over affixes is beyond me.
Would solve a lot of problems.

They need you to stop and hit CTRL to look at that piece of loot just like they need you to use a 3rd party loot filter to hide the absolutely disgusting amount of useless items that drop on each screen of the game. It is all to hide the things that the OG team refuse to take out of the game because "RNG is fun" and "deterministic outcomes mean people play less."

They removed the ability to see the affix tier from ID'd items on the ground a couple leagues ago. Nobody liked it and they didn't really do a good job justifying it either. It was suspected to curtail botting.
I watched that at random earlier, guy pretty much lost me when he started going on about how amazing bind on pickup was and how it solved everything. Also, the same item has a different appearance if looted in a different area ? Oooh, excitement.

You’d be surprised how many people like the wipes. Starting fresh while having knowledge others don’t is exciting for some people. I think they think of it as a league style event. I think it’s weird to like watching your time get flushed down the toilet but w/e.

Sounds like a typical Blizz Q&A. The WoW ones with Ion were cringy.

Huh? You do realize you're going to have to pay the same exact price regardless right? Playing the early access beta with a pre-purchase is literally free. You make it seem like there's an extra cost or something...

Sure but the more people who shell out cash early for unfinished games, the more companies will continue to exploit the masses to fund their business development.

You mean like how companies would offer you a "preorder" bonus on games like 20 fucking years ago? The same era most of you boomers claim was the "golden age" of gaming?

That's somehow different than the cash they make off a day 1 purchase?

Boomer and gen X for fucking life and fucking proud of it. And 20 years ago in 2003 when you preordered you weren’t testing a shit fucking game for a bunch of cucks as a preorder bonus.
We preordered wind waker for GameCube and would walk out of the store with a GameCube disc of orcania of time and master quest.
At least this way I suppose you can play the open beta and realize how shit this game is going to be and cancel the fucking preorder.

So you stayed poor 15 years later and can only afford a $5 deposit? Layaway was for poor people then and it's for poor people now. You still had to ultimately purchase the game or that "preorder bonus" was worthless.
It's also hilarious listening to a bunch of gen-Xers bitch about "bad business practices" and "these goddamn gaming companies!!" when they are the generation that kicked all this bullshit off. It's like listening to all the old farts bitch about how "gay" and fucked up shit is now, not being introspective enough to realize THEY raised those little faggots.
