@MasuMioshi yes, gacha's are heavily client based rather than server based. MMOs have insane costs to maintain servers and downtime is normal.
go play GW2 as your only MMO for awhile. they don't do downtime. but you'll soon realize subscription MMOs are still more popular for a reason.
@NotFabTV@OldCrafty yes, but it's not the focus. Chris Wilson gave a 1 hour long GDC talk about Designing PoE to be Played Forever, the word "endgame" was said 5 times total.
@NotFabTV@OldCrafty no joke. yes. the devs clearly don't want people just dungeon spamming and raid logging in Forever. it's about the World of Warcraft. you can just raid log Classic and spam M+ in Retail. Forever is for PvP.
@TungsteinDonut@oythemen numbers from the global reference doc, but i looked at it again just now and it says "Event for all uma that gives +5 all stats, +2 mood: 40% Chance per run" so it's for "Luck Is a Talent?" random event rather than the costume events
@BourbonAU@WendysFourFor4 Or turn friendly fire on. If I can get blocked by own own teammate, other people should be getting hit by their teammates' debuffs too.
@DarkR41771@KrisUmasimp UF can just be witmaxxed which means nothing about how good they are at racing. Even speed maxed doesn't mean much if they don't have proper accels and skills to get in position at the right time
@jordan_colon238@Scotia834 Not entirely true. The anime and smash bros had a huge impact on getting people familiar with post Gen 1 pokemon. Kalos is the new Gen 1.
@Sanomorf if it were "for the fans" it would have been titled "Street Fighter II" the way the animated movies were. there's no heart or charm to it, it's just "for the paycheck" at the expense of the fans.
