They're NOT planning on adding an auction house. Thoughts?
Graysun posted this in the discord yesterday. Seems that they're NOT interested in adding an auction house into this game
Honestly, I thought an auction house would be a necessity in a game like this where the entire point is to obtain and trade GEAR
Currently just to build one decent kit at a non ridiculous price it'll take you anywhere from 30 minutes - 1 hour.. if you're LUCKY. Not to mention selling newly obtained gear etc
Do they want everyone to be Timmy's and just purchase gear from vendors / purchase the first awful piece they see? Or is there intention really to have you spend hours upon hours trading for a couple sets you could lose in a matter of minutes? For the average player this just doesn't make any sense
For me, coming from multiples games with auction house type systems it's a no brainer. It'll #1 Cut down on the amount of time people are spending in the pre-game lobby thus having every dungeon more populated / lobbies fill up quicker and #2 Give a LOT more players access to a larger variety of the same power level gear. I think this is actually a LARGE reason we have such a big conversation over "gear disparity" in this game right now
For those who are against adding an auction house type system into the game... what are the reasons NOT to? I'm genuinely curious
