Forged/Made/Crafted/Found on Day # ???

Postby GamingRAM » Thu Jun 14, 2018 9:49 pm

A little idea, how about have the in-game day an item was originally found or crafted on an item's details?

Sword Q420
Forged on Day 69

Catfish Q23
Fished on Day 56

Yea it's marginal, but in a way it creates some artificial flavor text for players who discovered lost items.

Just let us add text to crafted items.

-1, we already have memories of pain everywhere. More text will make it harder to discover what is actually important in the description of an item.

Putting labels on items, however, would be a neat feature.

I like your idea, but in the interest of actually adding meaningful content to the discussion, allow me to add the following. I'd also like to see a "crafted by..." tag in item tooltips so I can know who to ask/pay to make me another one when I do something stupid like drop it overboard or use it to decorate my wall and then forget where I put it.

Just needs to be organized and colored well so that important information stands out.

Personally, would rather see the crafter name on it rather than date made. (Previously suggested multiple times.)

World of Warcraft crafted items show "made by X" at the very bottom of the tooltip.

Why not both?

Crafted by X at day Y.

Recycling would kind of ruin it for some probably.

No reason it can't be both. No reason a couple of other things could show up on the tooltip as long as we players consider them useful to information processing of the economy. I, at least, was merely stating my preference in case someone just thought it had to be so limited due to UI clutter.

I think that things like these have been suggested many times. (Naming weapons, showing who crafted them and when)
But they are still not added, even though they seem to be relatively simple to implement?
So maybe devs have some good reason why they dont want them?

Should need to inspect it or something so it doesn't just fill the tool-tips with useless clutter.
