Is it possible to have our forum public profiles to be linked to our in-game characters profiles? For example if you click my name, you can see my characters item level, roaster level and alts.
Blizzard (Diablo 3) forums did that and it helped with the fakers and whiners. Would eventually make the forums cleaner and less drama.
No more āIām 1455+ with 6 x 1385 altsā comments when the poster might actually just be tier1.
Tbh I donāt think the people who tell you what gs they are, are faking cuz they usually spend you screenshots as well, obviously your example is a troll.
It would simply help with people trolling on the forum tho.
In my case it would be Curiosity : who im talking to , what have they experienced . it would give you a better understanding of who the person on the other end is.
And therefore can ātrust or distrustā the words of others more? Sounds bad but i cant find better words . Credibility?
No. This forum is outsourced to fit several games and it does not support this function. This type of thing requires a custom made forum, and the name of the game is cutting costs everywhere
They certainly can make this if enough money is thrown at it, my point is that they simply wonāt bother with it. We have many things leading to the idea that they donāt really like spending money deemed as āunecessaryā. And for them, even hiring GMs (a staple of mmos for moderation and you know, dealing with bots ) is unecessary.
The only other one that iām aware of is conan exiles, or better put, every funcom game.
Some games decide to use their own (as far as iām aware, could be outsourced and customized) such as genshin impact. There they have hoyolab (or hoyoverse, it changed at some point) and it does indeed sync with your account data. Pretty neat.
