Hmmm I think you could speak for quite a few people who share a similar opinion.I said RunScape because you pulled "The Grand Exchange" directly from RuneScapeThe Grand Exchange took the MMO experience out of RuneScape by making it so if you wanted an item and had the cash, it was instantly yours. I enjoy the feeling of not only grinding the gold, but also having to hunt down my "beloved super item". Well, there is my opinion
This is exactly why I don't agree with most of you people
You guys want- to "hunt down you beloved item ". Personally I think that's annoying as Phuck.
I want - to be able to buy what I want when I want.
Before the grand exchange runescape was annoying as hell going to world 1 and 2 and looking for someone to buy or sell the item.
And people... Have we forgotten the most fun part about runescape?!?!? The economy! The grand exchange works like the stock exchange... So imagine buying 10 ancient daggers in CH and waiting a week and reselling them and making 50-100k because the prices fluctuate daily and since your holding some there are not as many in the world to trade with. This causes the prices to rise. Then the people buy them up and the prices fall back to an original price. 10 ancient daggers are just an example.
Merching clans- the most fun part about any MMO I have ever played was playing runescape and being in a huge merching clan and being able to control the markets. Making gold is fun. Grinding killing mobs is annoying and lame.
I don't have time to waste just grinding out gold... I work smart, not hard....
Me and other smart people will love a " grand exchange " type feature because now we can make millions of gold and finally break away from the scrubs who just grind away all day.
Seems like all you care about is making a monopoly and manipulating prices.
This is why America is in such dire straights, because people like you in the real world buy lobbyists to lobby the government to make policies that would allow them to make monopolies and manipulate prices.
Causes countries in the real world to fail. hope CH doesn't follow suit.
