Hello,
I just bought this game a week ago and the combat gameplay is absolutely phenomenal. I’m having a blast playing and I’m going to continue enjoying it for a bit, but the crafting system is going to be the reason why I don’t stay for long.
The easier it is for me to acquire the items I want in-game, the more willing I will be to purchase cosmetics.
As it stands, it’s effectively impossible (literally improbable) for me to EVER get the perks, blessings, and stats on the weapons I want. Because of this, I’m not going to buy cosmetics for any characters that I can’t get the gear for.
Design it so that I can spend my currency on tailored items that I can manually alter. I don’t care what the in-game cost will be, just let me pick my stats. RNG only reduces overall play time.
The combat is so fun, if I was able to purchase uniquely tailored weapons, I would continue playing for a long time to acquire a variety of different combinations to experiment with while I purchase really cool cosmetics for all my characters.
As it stands right now, I’m not going to spend any real money on cosmetics because I can’t get my character to where I want it to be–and it’s clear I’ll never be able to.
I already have a job in real life, I don’t need a second job.
It’s pretty ridiculous that I’ve spent money on this game and yet I don’t have access to some of the most basic inclusions in the game.
