Bounty Hunter System

[Ath192]

It's too much work on the development side to be worthwhile. It also goes against their design philosophy. People can make the choice to stop being toxic and just accept the fate RNGesus hands them on mentor roulette. You don't have to rename it from a bounty hunter system because it's clear that you only care about the loot and not actually helping others. If you really want to help others, there are other avenues like PF and discord.

Hmmm I dont think so. There’s relatively few assets to deal with in creating a menu and the functionality is largely similar to the PF. Perhaps adding a quest in the overworld to become one May be a lot of work but it could become a menu setting.

As far as people accepting their own fate and joining discords and such I agree! I don’t think most will but I do think the intrinsic meaning behind the mentor roulette has been lost. That’s why this is a more honest system, since it’s a bounty system meant to appeal to your monetary greed. Not hiding it behind an altruistic mentor ideal.

Either way, you're still looking to get behind the scenes on the queue to see what's actually available and you keep dodging that point. There's nothing honest about that. Nothing better will come out of it. Despite its flaws, the mentor system is the most fair and there's no value in exploring anything else.

Dodging what point? It's no mystery the menu will display the queues that have been sitting the longest since the bounty reward system is based on increasing rewards depending on the amount of time it's been sitting. Unless revealing information and appealing to the player's craving for rewards isn't honesty I'm not exactly sure what to tell you.

How would you define honesty?
