#61972, "The problem is those incentives don't work that well"
Edited on Wed 16-Dec-15 12:14 PM
|
I think there are little ppl who are into gear and preps. Gathering those is a chore and is generally un-fun (at least for me). Many people (me included) prefer investing into the character, not preps/gear. Hence edges are valued way above eq knowledge. For example most builds I play are based around one idea "I want to be competitive in PK w/o preps and gear". Edges help with that, knowing where to get stuff doesn't.
So as a result knowing that when I explore I find many new things doesn't incentivize me to go exploring. Getting that extra 500 ExpExp, on the other hand, somehow does.
P.S. I get your point though, it's totally valid.
