I think that it would be a good idea to implement a tally to display the total amount of gold picked up recently in one of the corners of the screen. It would appear only if more than one pile of gold is picked up in a short amount of time (say the last 1 second?) and keep accumulating until no gold is picked up for a short while (maybe 10 seconds?) and then disappear. Diablo 3 has a similar feature.
This will help to know how much gold a gold shrine has awarded for instance.
I think this is a very small but cool suggestions, maybe make it optional, just in case it distracts some people.
But i love that idea.
Gives you a better grasp of how much gold the end chest in MoF and those gold shrines give.
I think this should be done by replacing the way gold pickup is currently displayed. If I see 12 small +x gold from a shrine floating overhead, they’re not doing any good anyways because no one can see all those at once. If instead they replace it with one floating gold counter that lasts for, say, 2-3 seconds and tallies the gold picked up, it will be easier to read and have additional functionality.
For those familiar with PoE, this is basically how azurite pickup in Delve works, and it’s a great balance between having the gold/azurite feel plentiful (all the bits on the ground) while still being clear about what you gained (the floating tally).
