Right. I've caught up with your argument (classic case of skimming first post then jumping in at the last page)

Can't say that I don't understand you, thanks for taking the time to caught up though.

As for the top earners? I can't say I've noticed them causing much of an issue, the drop in value between tier 1 and tier 2 is immense and you don't need the toppest of top gear to achieve everything there is to achieve in here

Well, even if there is a drop, tier 2 value is not uncorrelated from tier 1. Also, when you want to see where you can push thing, or try very edge cases, you do actually need tier 1. I can agree with you that you don't need tier one to complete the objective the game gives you (I did complete those I believe, even if there is a few atlas points missing here and there as I've tried to get the pinnacle boss from expedition only from logbooks I farmed and it just never showed itself).

But I would argue that you can need tier 1 to complete objective that you are giving yourself which are a big part of the fun of any game to me. Not being able to complete these without interacting with a system I find very toxic, annoying and unfun as possible is a big frustration to me.

I grow increasingly tired of Chris Wilson's Wild Libertarian Ride year by year ;_;

We are least two here, and for the anecdot, I did say to another player I loved his username and that it made me laugh the other day. Would be funny if it was you.

Honestly, it might have been! Squadellah

I don't think it was, even if this is a funny name as well :D Just a similar story in an ocean of incredibly boring interactions.

+1 for "the mechanism of trade is awful and is a barrier to poor players and barely a blip to rich ones" though

Oh yeah, you can see of TFT discord that rich people are even paying poorer ones to take time to buy thing for them. If this is not capitalism at its finest, I don't know what it is.

Yeah. The kicker is if they did this and did not tell anyone about the obfuscication.. how would anyone know other than not being able to find their own listing for a "friend", and why would it matter?

I do enjoy the machiavelism of your proposal. And well, I o find quite great to be honest.

The goal of my OP was to give that feedback, that there is a population (as I believe I'm not alone) that is a client for a proper tailored experience which is not polluted by an atrocious economy. Will they ever make it ? I don't know. I will play it if they do.

The trouble with this, the business model for GGG insists that this is a multiplayer environment, and making SSF anything other than "more time consuming than trade" will mean an up-front price tag, and I don't think they're going to do that all the while they are making enough from F2P

Maybe a more moderate SSF with a league sub? idk

I would pay for that.
