I really don't get the argument that crafting weapons makes RNG rolls meaningless...
SO WHAT!? Who cares!?
RNG is the absolute worst aspect of EVERY VIDEO GAME! When you defend RNG in video games you're just White Knighting for lazy video game developers that sell you RNG as content.
There should absolutely be a way to guarantee a drop (with the rolls you want) after a certain amount of time/activity. Whether that is a mercy system that increases your chances after each failure, a token system to buy exactly what you want, or a crafting system, there should be a way. RNG is not a guarantee... EVER.
This is the only aspect they have announced for LF, so far, that concerns me. I had really hoped they would expand the crafting system to include armor not reduce the number of weapons available. Getting the stats ratios you want on a suit of armor is ridiculous.

Rng is the core of a looter shooter. I know, shocking. The reason no one cares for rng in this game is due to the foundation of d2. You get showered with loot. Nothing bad about it but when I received my god roll frozen orbit I had deleted 20 of them. What that means? - Apparently the rng didn't care much. So it gave me frozen orbits - Apparently in order to combat this, a weapon has many "Filler" perks to make you keep chasing for that god roll. Crafted weapons did make the loot more accessible but gave rng god rolls in regular activities no value (ritual etc) because objectively you could make a weapon better by crafting it compared to farming the ritual Playlist because it could be crafted with the exact same perks Honestly what they introduce in lightfall will be a nice middle ground. [spoiler]if your only argument is going to be that someone is a -blam!-, i am sorry. You are probably the reason no one takes complaints and things serious on this forum[/spoiler]

Rng is not the core of a looter shooter.. the core is that it's an rpg/shooter.
-
So is borderlands an rpg as well? Just wondering honestly since I heard a lot of people say looter shooter is a genre
-
I would say so, skill tree, stats and classes. I'm not saying rng can't be part of it but I don't necessarily think it's a requirement.
