Post aura rage here. I will lock any other aura thread I see.

The way the game looks should be decided by devs not players that write the most whine topics and posts on forums.

" So, I'm wrong. Happens all the time. Russell: Thank you for taking the time out of what must be an insane schedule to post a detailed reply. I found it LOL-ironic that those aura graphics you created with stone knives and bearskins have become the cause celebre of Wraeclast's Great Unwashed - myself included. Fitting, somehow. The odd thing is that I absolutely hate the glowy headpiece thingies in the shop; they're beautiful, but don't fit the Wraeclast mood IMO. I won't rage-quit over a graphics option, though - unless bunny ears or a stovepipe hat shows up in the shop. I wasn't in love with the old aura graphics, but the fact that one could distinguish them at a glance was very valuable. Your detail work on the new stuff is outstanding, but as I've said, it loses most of its character when viewed at full-out zoom. Hopefully this thread has given GGG food for thought, and you will consider offering a beefier aura graphic (maybe something built off the current iteration?) as either a toggle or a microtransaction. Sometimes it's okay to compromise a bit in the name of giving the people what they want, (especially when those people are a means of financial support) and I think enough voices have been raised in this thread to make it a topic of discussion. Keep up the great work. "Experience is the best teacher,but there's only one seat in his classroom."

Just make an option on the menu, so that both sides will not fight against each other...

Menu option would be very weird. If they would do it people would ask to add this option for any controversial effect.
The far better option would be to give optional auras for microtransactions which are look bit fancier . |

" So...remove effects already in the game and then tell players they can pony up $$$ if they want to see them again? That would set a nice precedent. As I posted earlier in the thread, people aren't just upset because change automatically = bad, people are upset because these new auras could not be more different from the old ones. (Below) How did we go from such a detailed ground-covering glow to a jaggy unprocessed swirling scribble?  |

Bah, you guys have to keep reminding me of the disappointment i feel now?
Sure this helps with some lag here and there, but honestly as much fun as im having with the game, the armor and whatnot doesn't make my socks roll up and down. The auras looking the way they did was a huge 'yes everything looks awesome!!' feeling that is just missing now. |

" Perfect example, look at the details and the "coolness" factor on the hatred old aura. Now look to the new one. Back then that's how i looked >>  And now >>  |
