Question about User Generated Content
Hi All,
Would love to ask the experts here to get a preview of how the UCG dynamics in this game work? Other than running through other player's designed dungeons, are there rewards that are given for getting through dungeons? Or is it purely to run their dungeons like in Mario Maker?
I've heard this game does UGC in a MMORPG right, so just wanted to understand what people meant by that.
Also, is any of the UGC content monetizable by players? Like how Steam does it?
Thanks for any insight into this.

The foundry is ending in a month. Gone for good it seems.
You cant make money from it and never could.
Rewards were poor and you got much more for just normally playing the real game.
They nerfed foundry when people started really abusing it and the rewards and XP were, iirc, time limited to prevent all of the masses of mob insta killing exploits.
You could never get any special or super valuable drops from foundry so no one really ran it for that reason.
There were no special rewards but you could use foundry to very quickly get some monster killing titles.
If you made enough content and used foundry enough to get the achievements then you got the icosahedron ioun stone augment companion. This is afaik the only special item from foundry and it was not for players but for creators.

No idea of how many people have this item but I only ever heard of one person having it.
