Poe.trade is a marketplace, not an auction house. The overall encompassing terminology for a trade system is: trade system, not AH, auction house is a very specific implementation of a trade system.



You can no longer be at the whim of afk players, dnd ect if they simply improve the API.

DDOS downtime? Like that one or two days he had issues?



Click to buy should never be a system in any ARPG game, because it trivializes loot acquisition, which is the ONLY remaining endgame in a game like this, if you already have the gear you have no reason to play anymore.

The easier trading gets the less your items will be worth, can't you see that? It works in WoW because they have bound items, it won't work here.

Not only that it is a different game completely. Best items in WOW are from like raids and shit, there isnt a single thing in poe item wise that you can't trade for.

Even marvel heros, which has an AH has soul bound items, its a fundamental thing to balance trade, along with changing where you can get the best items from.

People don't understand this, they just want instant gratification and want to get currency for no effort, as if the speed clear meta wasnt enough for them already, gotta make everything go as fast as it.



AH isn't trading with players, its interacting with an interface, there isn't any depth, meaning or purpose of having trading at that point. Why not just give everyone level 90 characters, with whatever gear they want.

I play Guild Wars 2, I'm all in favor of account/soulbound items if it means preventing AH from gouging market prices. There's always a balance. All I care about is the ability to trade whenever I want, even when I or other people are offline.

Who are you to open their eyes , not cool man not cool . /s


@goetzjam

Loot aquisition problem can be easily fixed by increasing the TERRIBAD droprates in this game , there you go . As long as you don't have stuff that are stupidly rare , you have no issue whatsoever .

The game should be about having fun PLAYING , not waiting to have fun while farming dumb orbs .

Yeah! Who wants to have fun playing a video game when it should be a job replacement activity.

Stop wanting to have a fun challenging game, you guys. It's about grinding orbs 10 levels below you and shopping for your loot on xyz. Right, Goatz?
