Put in an auction house with buyout
" Then this game, wich is a market based ARPG will cease to exist. | |
" So you are telling me that right now, people are not using real money to buy items? You are right, they use real money to buy currency that is then changed into the items. | |
" That has been an issue since the beginning of PoE. Again, it is an old argument that doesn´t hold up anymore. I am not in favor of an auction house, but I think the arguments have to change. You cannot argue against an AH from an economic or socializing pov anymore, the current system already falsifies those arguments. You have to argue from a philosophical point and with a perspective of design. regards Hold on to yer shite load o´ bloody barnacles on me arse-cockles, me hearty!

" I don't see why both wouldn't be still applicable. You gotta understand that your personal opinion and experience is not anyone elses. I have good chats while trading occasionally. And it will definately affect the economy if you implement an AH. I mean you are surely not arguing that trading without any barriers is gonna be exact to trading with the current barriers. | |
" and to quote you back at yourself, with all due respect, the self same identical thing can be said from the opposite side of the fence. Your personal experience is certainly NOT mine. I have NEVER had a good chat with anyone trading. Any attempts at which are normally simply ignored by the other person. I would agree that implementing an AH would change the economy, people would no longer be able to list things with zero intent to actually sell them. So we would start seeing REAL prices. Also, if you went to click buy on a listing, you would be guaranteed to buy it. Terrible, eh? (well, only for the time wasters) I loved Path of Exile.
I do not love Path of RNG. Bloom gives me migraines, the over usage of darkness strains my eyes. Save our game, remove all of the constant RNG and allow us to turn off Bloom or give us an in game brightness control! |

I'm all for AH. Low value items will actually be viable to sell and you will be able to buy them on the spot, you wouldn't have to wait days for someone with an item you need, you wouldn't need to be online to sell your items, no people putting items with no intention to sell it, no "fixed" prices that jump up and down every second, no jumping in some aus hideout with horrific latency and mtx that drops your fps to 5, less price fixing, scamming, flipping currency due to market being more alive and stronger(many people just don't want to deal with that uncomfortable mess and not participate unless it's necessary), etc. And you think that there aren't buy\sell bots now? I'm sure that, at least, for currency there are some.

" You can buy exa with real money, you can buy t1 uniques with real money, you can buy legacy items and race rewards with real money on standard. What will change? | |
" It is a rare occurence when I see so many men with straws! Also 1 alch items will become 1 wisdom, big change! Uploaded an awesome Exsanguinate Freeze Explosion build on the forums - https://www.pathofexile.com/forum/view-thread/3508506

" My statements was clearly my opinion. Yours wasn't. So no, you can't say the same thing back unfortunately. | |
" It would've worked if farming items was a viable option for finding gear, but it's not. In 2 leagues I found 0 rares worth more than 10 chaos aka everything was trash and I had multiple 90+ characters in each with 50+ exa worth of gear/curr. Trading is still required to gear yourself and still required to upgrade your gear. Because no ammount of hours will drop you needed uniques/rares for your build and crafting is out of reach for almost anyone, considering how much currency it requires you to waste for anything decent and you still have to trade to gather that currency. |
