    I love the idea of having millions of weapons with different effects. I hate having people that find this one weapon that obviously outclasses them all but with that system it means finding the best possible weapon is extremely hard. :3 So... Over a billion items I hope! :3

    Why buy when you can get it for free and then spend the rest of your life doing some pointless task that doesnt matter in the slightest?

    It is and it isn't that much. Think of there being both a prefix and a suffix. So you can have items like "Super Sword of Murder" or "Big Gun of Slapping". Even if the sword or gun have one base set of stats, both the suffix and prefix could have a range. So say "Super" adds critical strike randomly generated between 1% and 10%. Then say "Murder" adds between one and ten bonus damage. You have a chance of getting a huge array of "different" swords even though, in a sense, they are the same kind.

    Add dozens of different suffix's and prefix's with ranging values, with plenty of weapons and you get lots upon lots of weapons.

    I hope they'll add a huge range of weapons, but without procedural generation. Just giving a sword a higher crit chance wont really make it different :/

    Well look at the sheer amount of things supposedly in game. Going to take a whole lot of unique weapons and modifiers to get that way. So have faith :)

    Edit: That, and look at games like Diablo and Borderlands. They used a similar item generation and it added a ton of fun and surprise to what you could get next.
