If you all remember Force gaming video about the Nexon Patent on RNG Manipulation in game? Well I did more digging into it, and I am concerned about what I found. As it directly impacts Last Epoch.
If you are a data miner, or statistician, I would like to request you all begin to immediately to count your drops so we can find out if there is any legitimate reason, or if my worries are unfounded. Thanks
An actually popular and influential name on Youtube uses Last Epoch as a passing example of a video game with RNG in it, and someone with a much smaller following wants to spring on it for click/rage bait for views. I’ll pass on the video. I have enough faith in EHG not to screw their player-base.
Not really trying to as i did not even react to his video, if i was trying to use his video i would do what any react channel did. I actually provided my own feed back and my own research.
Also if you watch more then first 2 seconds you hear i say its my speculation. I provide my logic for it. Maybe watch the content before making inappropriate sarcastic remarks
Was your research extensive enough that it included datamining the game files yourself, or at least looked at the data collected by the people who already do that and post it online?
I did mention his name cause he spoke about it, and peaked my curiosity. He just made fun of his bad RNG, he did not really even look into it. That is what made me to research. Just inspiration
I understand that is unfortunate realization that tencent controls nexon via net marble. And that tencent is a COMPANY that cares about PROFIT. Netmarble was essentialy bought Nexon for its asset including the patent.
Speculativly devs said they would nerf drop rates for 1.0. What if that nerf was just them adding this patent. Surprise Surpise LE is funded by Tencent
What makes you think it has anything to do with profit?
Mushroom game rng cube is purchased with real money so i can see that point of view and why they would do it.
LE has no reason to control your rng for their benefit even if ‘tencent’ wanted it. It may hinder your progress time a little but that does not equal to more profit for tencent.
