Andor's Trail

I only turn on my "loot box" when venturing into unknown lands. To me the little pop up takes to much time.

If you didn't know how to turn on or off the "loot box" hit the menu button while playing. There are a few options there.

There is no big deal, and sorry if I sounded whiny/nit picky in asking for a little confirmation. I was not trying to come off this way. This was just merely my two cents on the idea. Like Krabbie posted above me, it can all be turned off, if so desired, so why couldn't the confirmation be turned on as well for those that want it. EITHER way, I will still play the game until my phone falls apart from over usage. Just saying...

What I would really like to see is an XP floater above your head just like you get when you receive damage, let it linger for slightly longer and make sure the font face is larger and possibly a gold colour. Then remove the XP from the loot window itself.

This sounds very good. I would like it to be that way.

Floating EXP would be very nice, much better indeed.

As for "tek's" comment, perhaps we are knit picking here but we are providing valid feedback as to the game flows playability and the design of the UI. No one called this a show stopper bug. I was just saying this design layout is confusing enough that multiple people have noticed it and wondered if they were looking at a bug or not as I did.

That isn't to say the game sucks or something like that over this small issue. I think this game rocks

I filled in a suggestion here:

The difference between a good game and a great game is in the details. I personally like the idea of removing exp fom the pop-up loot window and making it hover over the characters head briefly instead. To me, that feels more complete and polished.

Hm, I think that the exp message (or dialog) is not shown when a monster does not drop any items. I'll have to investigate closer.

I'll tell you one thing I noticed yesterday. After a week or so of having the confirmation window disabled, I turned it back on yesterday and on occasion I see duplicate confirmation windows at the same time. After defeating one Wrym trainer the window shows twice.

That also happens to me sometimes, I think that happens if you kill a monster and then instantly tip on the screen in the right moment so that you make a step. If you stepped in the right direction you now stand on the dropped items and therefore get the loot dialogue and the "do you want to pick up these items..." Dialogue on the same time. The question I have not solved yet is: Do you get the items twice?
