just hear me out, don’t burn me, i’m not a heretic or a psyker, i’m as human as they come.
most people that do penances either do them by accident or because they were farming them and both just take more time than its worth for some cosmetics that they’re not gonna be using to often. so repeatable penances could fix this by making it so that penances that suck too much are just left for a later date and penances that have already been done can be done again and can reward less points than before(again, this one was CaptainBrexit on the fatshark forums).
alternatively, alternate penance paths can have the same effect but instead of making the penances repeatable, they instead have an alternate path that can be taken instead if the original is too hard or just doesn’t seem fun, therefore allowing people to 100% the game without having to suffer through farming some penances and getting burnt out on the game.
and as for the weapon customization, why not just let us put a different sight and specials on our guns? we’re already getting a mastery system, so why not make this come with mastery? i understand it on the level of “some weapons would be too powerful if they could use some of the specials of other weapons” but that just means that some weapon specials shouldn’t have the option to be put on other weapons and some weapons shouldn’t have their speciels made to be special be changeable! for instance, the chainsword.
if you could rev a devils claw sword, it would be too busted and wouldn’t make sense, same with the charge. just don’t make the charge and rev something you can put on a non-chain/power weapon, easy. it should also be true that weapons based around something like charging, venting, and revving, should not have their specials be changeable. that is just how i would do it, i would also make it so that you can change the sight of your weapon as long as its something that either already had a sight that wasn’t irons and it was a weapon that would logically have that sight, like giving the helbore the sight of the normal lazgun or giving irons to the normal lazgun or giving some other sight to an autogun. i also think weapon attack patters should be customizable, some weapons just seem like they’d be better with a vanguard or a relentless.
anyway, if you liked this, tell me, if you didn’t, tell me why.
