Any way we could -NOT- have bestiary added to core?

If they do the menagerie needs to be blown away completely in place of a ‘bench’ for our hideout. Get rid of the crafting fight, pointless. Get rid of pens, pointless. Once beasts are captured, let us head to our hideout and use the bench to craft. The end.

Alternatively, roll back to 3.1. The end.

Since its pretty much 100% it gets added to core game getting rid of the menagerie would be great since no one really dies to the fights. Should be straight up craft.
Chances of that happening.... My guess is zero.
I for one will ignore the content, occasionally throwing a net out if the beast survives my one shot.

I have a very strong feeling that this league mechanic will be added to the game for one very simple reason...

The voice acting for the Bestiary NPC Einhar. Voice acting isn't cheap, nor is it a truly simple process to implement, so to that all that work to throw it away will not be an easy pill to swallow.

That said, I could see this becoming an option for say a Legacy type league or a Zana Mod.

I’ve played quite a bit on Standard and Bestiary this league.
I’ve noticed no difference in drops, map wise or currency wise. This doesn’t mean that there isn’t one, just that I’ve personally not experienced one.

There’s still a lot of whining, complaining, and threatening to quit going on in this thread. But there are some good suggestions too.
1. Get rid of, or consolidate nets. I think pretty much everyone can agree that this is a good idea.
2. Getting rid of the menagerie. There’s probably some minority that enjoy seeing their captures in cages, but I think it’s a drain on resources that just isn’t necessary.
3. Get rid of the crafting fights. I think this is a good idea. I don’t hate the fights, but killing the beasts multiple times is pretty redundant.

I hope GGG is considering some of these changes. I’ve played the heck out of Bestiary so far and I’ll at least get to 24 challenges if not 36. The nets have been annoying to me, but they are really easy to manage compared to something like leaguestones. The saddest part to me is that I haven’t really gotten anything good out of the Bestiary (other than prophecy spam). My friends all made something pretty rare in the first week or so, but I think I’ve made 2 6-links that I don’t use, and a Daresso’s amulet that I do.

The league would have been fine really if they make 1 red beast appear in every map.

I really like beastiary but imo there is just too much of everything. To many nets types (1 max 3 would be fine), to many crafts (instead of crafting int/dex/str boots make it just boots), to many beast types (instead of using wolf of level 80 with $%&*%&@! presence let me just use wolf, any wolf!) etc. They just made it too complicated for no good reason. It would be so cool league if only they would cut the number of variables by half.

They have too, because the aspects. Sorry you have to do more then hold shift and left click to craft items.

The longer and more persistent you support something, the less of it is needed to be there at all.

This is 100% my concern as well. Do you know roughly how many lines of dialogue Einhar has? I can make a pretty close estimate to the cost based on that.

It's not unprecedented that they scrape a league with massive dialogue's though, perandus also had a lot of voice acting attached to it but didn't get rolled into the core game.

Bestiary has the voice acting/menagerie/beast compendium etc so i think the chances are extremely in favor for incorporation.

Peace,

-Boem-

Einhar voice acting i will never forget.
His signature gig is "you are captured, stupid beast"
I guess people will make remixes of it when the league ends.

Back to topic:
I would condense down the vast majority of trash recipes to useful ones which would complement essence crafting, including the recipes to open the Spirit Beast portals.
This means beast encounters either unlocked by Zana mods or like 3.2 starting with coast after Lioneye's Watch.
