What you're really saying is: Don't ask for improvements

What I'm really saying is what I wrote: Don't ask to dumb down the game, we don't need another walking simulator like D3. I would (and I do) pick PoE map system over D3 or other arpg systems that I know of in every scenario.

EDIT: And again, it is perfectly optional, you can just alch and go, don't need to spend time over it.

So you've never found a single thing wrong with POE and never offered feedback about that thing?

BTW so far I've been ignoring the "dumb down the game" gambit but there's nothing inherently less deep about putting the map mods into an understandable organized format, making them more intuitive to read, or offloading some of the micro to a better overview system like Delve. You still make choices, but with less fiddling. Maybe a map hopper system where you roll 10 maps with 10 currency and get a jumble of 8 or 10 mods... then you only need to scan the hopper's maps mods once and all 10 maps have some combination of those mods. Tons of ways to improve the system. Color code the mods has been suggested.

The Atlas tree shows the way, there are solutions that would allow you to keep rolling maps and parsing lines of text to your hearts desire, every ~2mins if you like that, and allow other people to no longer have to deal with the micro and the "HAH get wrecked" text parsing. We already see many similar solutions on the tree already.

"Take more of this damage, your maps can not roll reflect"
"you take 10% increased fire dmg, your maps can not roll no recovery"

Now my RF char or my Ele hit bow guy can play the game without "HAHA get fucked you didn't see that line of text after reading 6 mods per map for 200 maps = 1000 lines of text scanned per night.

inb4 15 years from now we discover that scanning massive jumbles of dim text all the time leads to eye damage and we have a wave of blind 40-60 year old gamers who all played POE lol.

You keep calling this dumbing down but thats just a strawman. Nothing dumber about some ease of reading color, organization of the mods or improvements to mass rolling.

But thats now what being asked here for - OP wants it gone entirely, because he don't want to do it at all, because he consider it a waste of time. And removing map mods IS dumbing it down, so please, don't pretend it is about colours somehow

I agree it shouldn't be simply deleted, I bet a lot of people would agree that it would be better to have QoL improvements, and options (atlas passives, new ways to engage with map rolling such as a hopper or "map expeditions" which would amount to delve like mapping as an optional way to engage).

POE is all about options these days and GGG was never going to listen to anything like "just delete map rolling" with any seriousness anyway. I take statements like that as hyperbole.

Reroll your map 10 times to not get a build bricking mod

Well not everyone is running throwaway minion/poison builds. Stuff like cannot leech, no regen, ele/phys reflect and reduced recovery shows up a ton.

If you really think more clicking makes the game better then i guess there is point in writing anything further. Youl'll probably change your mind when you get RSI and have to stop playing because of it. I've been there already.
