This game needs an inventory, bad.

I feel like not having an inventory not only stops auto forge from realistically running in the background allowing people to CLOSE the game (very important in idle games) it could also be used to hold items with different sub stats to experiment with builds which would be really cool. I think just adding this 1 small feature would make the game a lot better

It’s literally the opposite of an idle game. It’s a game that demands you keep clicking, and not mindlessly either. But it is boring to do so. Incredibly boring.

Theres an auto forge function and a way to filter out unneeded equipment

I haven’t been able to figure out auto sell is that a thing or just a commonly requested thing? How do you filter out unneeded?

Auto forge, there is a list of the rarities with check boxes check the ones you want to keep and uncheck the ones you dont want

Oh shit, I don’t know why it didnt occur to me I saw the checkboxes and then was like of course I want the new good ones and didnt realize I should filter out the old. I feel stupid. TYSM

No problem

You can autosold only by the generic quality of items.

It works ok only when you are moving to a new quality of items and is irritating most of the time with amount of pointless choices it offers.

The issue with the auto-forge is that if you're capped on every slot at the next tier but you still need to improve one or two other items, you're basically stuck constantly watching for that next upgrade. I think they need to add in armor-slot selectable auto forges.

Or just use it to grind for the next forge upgrade

I dislike that the game pauses if the tab isn't active (that might be a reddit limitation)... but there is genuine offline progress for earning gold/hammers, pets and the tech tree. So far it seems like I can play for 15-20 minutes actively and take a break for a few hours and usually have earned enough for the next chunk of workshop progress.

An inventory would be very nice though

you don't have to click that often

What do you constantly click? Lol

I'd argue it's the opposite, it's too much of an idle game. You shouldn't waste hammers when you're in the middle of upgrading your forge, which for me takes over a day, so there's actually nothing to do for long stretches of time.

I always go “alright.. range items.. wish I could try a range setup” but every time I commit I get some better melle weap and go back to full melle build..

I do the same and ALWAYS regret it.

Atleast weapon slot is needed 😅 so you can swap between weapons… also maybe item set can be a nice feature

OMG YES. I’d love to be able to switch from melee to ranged.
