I love it that you let us use portals without problems, I hated having to keep the scrolls in PoE.
Hmm, interesting. About broken equipment, as someone who has played a lot of mmorpg many moons ago, I like the theory of having your weapon deteriorate with use. But the consequences are usually: not doing high damage or having your equipment disappear. In terms of gameplay, the player usually goes to a blacksmith and presses 2 buttons every time they go back to town. I would like to see these mechanics you talk about, adding depth to the durability system in terms of actual gameplay. Maybe a rusty sword would have 10% chance of giving an enemy tetanus? ha ha.
I like seeing your updates so keep killing those bugs and ascend to a new class.
