I’m not sure if it is a problem, each currency has a specific purpose (ie materials split by expansion for a more level playing field on expansion release, faction specific, event)
I feel like it’s well designed if anything
Exactly. If there was only one currency for all old content, everyone would just do the most efficient farm and buy everything that way and not interact with any of the related content.
Exactly, veterans with a stockpile would be able to just buy the lot
Actually super agree, and surprised people aren’t as on board with this.
Why the fuck should anyone have to do Ogrila dailies in 2025 if they just want a cool item for transmog? What is the point of currencies that trade for other currencies? Does anyone really need to make going back through Warlords of Draenor any worse?
Blizz already has converted old currencies to gold in the past. Would it really hurt the old and forgotten content of Retail if it was made more accessible to new players?
Damn what a way to say “I don’t play or understand this game at all”
Eh, i couldn’t tell you like, what ⅒ of those currencies were, but if I’m not mistaken those “currencies” author is talking about are really more like xp unlocks for specific gear. PvP/PvE gear have their own stats and tiers and “currency” cuz before this was implemented, it was tough for beginners to get geared up for tougher dungeons (no one wants to run a PUG for an hour or 2 and get nothing) and back then top-geared PvE guilds could roll dedicated PvP groups with their PvE purples.
It’s not really a problem I’ve heard players complain about
Wow, and here I thought Path of Exile’s currency was complicated.
