I loved your part on creating item. I wish I will be able to mod a system where the player will start with some kind of artefact item blueprint (or need to get it through quests...), and increase its powers, so this trusted item would become an old companion of many figths, with powers you would give it at a moment, in exchange of whatever. And it would become part of your legend. Anyways ,hopefully the editor will allow us to do that. We will see.
One worry I'm starting to have
I had this worry ages ago. Well, maybe some part of the world will have dedicated gathering spots for crafters. However, crafting is only a minor feature of the game. All proposals to make looting maybe more relevant have fallen into oblivion it seems, and gathering is mostly still a matter of opening crates.
