" Wtf RMT you talk about in PvE game? Watching general chats rly? I have Teamspeak i have Discord. I'm talking with friends that I play with in realtime. If you want Free, botfree mmo - go play something offline in single player. |

GGG devs don't listen to forums or complaints. They have detailed analytics on everything we do in the game, and how we engage or disengage with their product.
That said, they balance the game difficulty around what people are actually doing. If RMT makes it too easy for bad players to complete 36 challenges, they can't undo the RMT but they can ramp up the barriers to entry to challenges after the first 5 or so. It's bad for the game because it's power creep to deal with a problem created by a small but growing subset of entitled players from P2W culture. That said, that's a lot of players in that subset that although entitled and greedy, are still loyal customers and GGG should see potential in them and work to engage them in a way that keeps them loyal and happy without enabling that entitlement and P2W shortcut mentality. Chris has said he does not want the game to become group-therapy participation-trophy pablum, but he'd be missing a few nuts and bolts if he blew off say, the 10 to 25 percent of estimated RMT abusers entirely. Bots will be bots, but if there was no money to be made, their scriptors wouldnt have bothered... [19:36]#Mirror_stacking_clown: try smoke ganja every day for 10 years and do memory game

RMT wouldn't be a huge problem, if GGG would take a more aggressive stance versus bots. We all see trade bots survive for a whole league, so the chances of a farming bot surviving for a whole league, may be high. When we, the players, can easily spot bots and bot bahvior in towns, I seriously wonder why GGG (and the AI detection codes they should be running) can't spot them.
They clearly do not see it as a huge problem. And it's kinda sad. Bring me some coffee and I'll bring you a smile.

" " OP: "Anyone with more currency than me is a RMT'er." Also OP: "Anyone with less currency than me has an invalid argument." This game still confuses me.

" Honestly it is going to come down to player choice and how they choose to play the game. I have had my share of rant posts about mechanics or barriers to entry being at certain levels which exclude 'the majority' of players. However, the community here is not going to really care. I just want to save you the time of reading more replies that are going to bash you or me over an opinion. The bottom line is something you are going to have to decide. Are you going to let the actions of others ruin your experience or are you going to conduct yourself in a way that you can still enjoy yourself while maintaining your morals. I am not disagreeing with what you are saying. I am also far from believing the extent to which you accredit some player's success by a blanket RMT accusation. No Alteration orbs/Skills&Ascendancies from 0.1 that remain broken in 0.2/Drop rate of greater & perfect jewelers/Rhoas being locked behind a dex requirement

I do not know what fame you are talking about here. Since the introduction of SSF nobody cares for league firsts outside it. You also throw RMT accusations without any proof or example.
Do poeple RMT? Sure. Is it as impactful as you try to make it? Hell no. Its just a game. Unless you are top 10 in the world nobody cares and you cant be top 10 in trade league, that is reserved for HC SSF. In trade you are nobody. Last edited by kuciol#0426 on Aug 30, 2020, 3:21:28 PM
