Show item stats in listview?

Post by oskarwiksten »

When we display items in lists, we currently show some of the stats. Only AC, DMG, CS, CM, BC and DR are currently shown, not any other stats, such as conditions or AP cost modifiers. The list could be even more clean without showing these stats. Should we really display those stats?

Sometimes, only showing certain stats is misleading. I like the cleaner look too.
Take a stop by my game thread for some forum fun!!!

as a semi neat freak I like the cleaner list. Looks more organized.

I prefer having the stats there as it makes it easier to compare items.

I like the cleaner look since it would be impossible to fit all the gears stats in.

My vote is either show it all or take it all out.

Maybe when a new format for inventory organization is added there could be an option to reorganize the list by a specific stat (AC high to low, AC low to high, AD high to low, etc)

I like a combination of both.
Clean while in the item list but hover over or highlight the item and the items stats display in a window.
Clicking on the item brings up the window to the side not in the middle of the screen.
The item window for equipment shows a side by side comparison and a gain of stats highlighted in green and a loss highlighted in red (listed separately for an off hand weapon if applicable) and would be much easier to read in my opinion.
In that window is the option to equip the item and on which hand.
Sorry if it's confusing.

I prefer to keep them, as a way to quickly compare items. And I think it will be even better to have it when the list can be sorted by item category. And I really second the statement by Xero...you really have good ideas Xero! Dweller is another game that shows the item comparison and it does help a lot.

Maybe something where when you look at an item's stats it say in "( .. )" next to it the difference from what you have equipped to what you are currently looking at.

So if you are looking at:
Fancy Knife:
AC: +30%
AD: 1-3

And you are using....
Boring Knife:
AC: +20%
AD: 1-2

The Fancy Knife would come up like:

Fancy Knife:
AC: +20% (+10%)
AD: 1-3 (+0 +1)
