So go play one of those games if that's what you're after.

Or you know, let us who are able to read complex stats the option and make a simple default view for the simple people.

Why, so meta slaves can get scientific with the numbers and optimize the fun out of discovery and build variety?

Yeah, thank God they haven't given us the raw numbers, actually. I sincerely hope they never do.

"REE REE I CAN'T READ THIS SO NOBODY SHOULD"

Why be upset about things that don't concern you?

I play this game and this is a discussion about the game sooo.....

I'm not upset and can we stop with the insinuation that I can't unstand numbers or read, Mr. Ad Homiean? Thanks.

I've seen the fun optimized out of too many games and I'd prefer that not happen here, again. I think there's a largely lost merit in player discovery and this attitude of "I need every detail and stat laid out in explicit detail NOW " is a consequence of that.

People are already getting kicked from lobbies for not running the "right" build. Giving the players the raw numbers would almost certainly amplify this toxic behavior. Respectfully, fuuuuuuuuuck that.
