9/9 Patch Breakdown
Do games even reward intelligence anymore? Everything seems to be dumbing down drastically.
Easiest way to describe it would be a big kitten you patch to multiple groups. To break it down:
Dungeon runners, kitten you because you get slower dungeons with no increase in rewards for the extra amount of time you have to spend to do the dungeons which aren’t engaging in the slightest.
Key runners, kitten you because you don’t have any way to do this anymore.
New players, kitten you because really cool skins like Bonetti’s Rapier are now 3x what they cost because of collections.
Old players, kitten you because you don’t get to make alts with everything they should have. Have two skills until level 10 because new players are “too stupid” to be able to use 5.
Beyond that, there is pvp and wvw which I don’t know to a great extent, but they got very little in terms of the patch. The biggest thing I’m going to cover though, is the TP since I know that one quite well.
Intelligent TP users, kitten you because you can’t see enough quantities to make a good move pertaining to selling and buying. kitten you because you don’t get to see the number of buyers on a particular sale price and are unable to tell if you are competing with a single person or multiple people on a particular good. kitten you for not having a total profit after taking away taxes.
The reason I focus on TP more than anything is because it takes intelligence to be able to use it with any amount of efficiency. You removed the intelligence factor because the factors for making an intelligent decision have been removed. The fact that you want me to participate in kittened zerg farming to make make money is kittening bullkitten. I’ll give you a few weeks to fix this kitten or I’m gone to game which rewards intelligence.
