Volt_Cruelerz Posted June 10, 2013 Share Posted June 10, 2013 Nerfs should be applied when 1. When something is outstandingly powerful 2. When something makes the game too easy 3. When the excessive potency of something negatively impacts gameplay 4. When power creep is threatening the game 5. When resources become inflated 6. When content is being expended too quickly Buffs should be applied when 1. When something is outstandingly weak 2. When something makes the game too hard 3. When the unsatisfactorily low potency of something negatively impacts gameplay 4. When resources become deflated 5. When content is being expended too slowly Reworks should be applied when 1. Something is both outstandingly strong and weak 2. When something is excessively rock-paper-scissors 3. When something has pros or cons that are vastly outweighed by the other in almost all cases 4. When nerfing and/or buffing have cannot rectify the situation Categorical Reworks should be applied when 1. A system is too unbalanced to fix one component without horribly destabilizing the entire system 2. When gameplay is in general too easy or too hard 3. A system develops an undesired meta that goes against the evolving goals of the development team This is more directed at the community, but also at the devs, hence its location. There are things that need nerfs and there are things that need buffs. Saying that we should only buff is just silly. There is a time for each and I really hope the devs understand this given the "Don't nerf X, make Y as good as X." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Volt_Cruelerz Posted June 10, 2013 Author Share Posted June 10, 2013 The amount of "don't nerf X" I've seen in threads lately has been... upsetting. Hopefully this will remedy some of that at least. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
