3.0 - Ziggy D vs Chris W: Reddit Posted Interview Notes and Discussion

Thanks for the notes. I would rather not watch ZD, I don't hate, he just isn't for me.

Looks like mostly bad news. The bandits are a really underrated part of the game. I hope they pick cruel or merciless rewards and get rid of normal as those are a little more boring.

Dipping news isn't that bad I guess, always going to be an op build running around.

I wish they were doing what they said about the bandits with the lab. Make us only do it once or twice and just give us same amount of ascendency points. I don't care what you take out of normal, 4 times lab is tedious regardless, gonna seem even more so with only 1 play through.

Ohh well I guess just wait and see, I don't really understand why everyone is getting so excited about something not coming for another 5 months or so. I am much more interested in the 2.5 notes coming today. Not that we have a lot of other stuff to talk about right now.

So no real changes to trials/lab. That's a bit of a bummer. I love Uber Lab, but normal/cruel/merciless...ugh. Such a waste of time and unnecessary detour to everything.

So everyone loses 8 attack speed and a power or frenzy charge in favor of pantheon?

That alone is a huge nerf to global dps.

The real question is

If they remove Ascendancy points, treasure chest and enchants from Uber lab, do you still "Love uber lab" ?

Of course not, the rewards are what make it worth it. Trick question? I don't get it, lol.

So Chris, you want to say you have a very good chance with 3.0 to make lab completely optional side area as it should be due to its alienating gameplay and you choose NOT to? Literally the most rewarding area in the whole game full with loot pinatas, lab only uniques, chests, enchants, hidden rooms and darkshrines (only to lure people in cause otherwise nobody would enter after the first time) is still considered the most fitting place to get your points? 1million active players during december and there were 10k people re-running lab after they got their points, thats how fun, and fitting to an ARPG it is, but no we must play frogger to get the points. Seriously GGG? The only content in your history inciting so many threads and complaints (and still doing) and you neglected every single one? Thanks for caring about your veteran community......

I think they might stick the rewards into quests in the second half of the game

Yeah they don't care at all.







Should I put a \s or you still not figured out how ridiculous your claim sounds?

How about we remove ascedancies all together?Sounds right to me,just like your comment

I think his point is that most people that claim to "love" or "enjoy" the lab actually love the rewards attributed by completing the lab...not the lab itself.
