no gold

2018-10-10 10:22:44 UTC  

just bits

2018-10-10 10:22:45 UTC  

Personally I like it

2018-10-10 10:23:05 UTC  

But if you wish its not something you "must" work

2018-10-10 10:23:23 UTC  

They even added in a mode that disables all trading for your char.

2018-10-10 10:23:26 UTC  

Solo self found

2018-10-10 10:23:43 UTC  

And people do actually achieve alot without trading

2018-10-10 10:23:54 UTC  

gold works so well cause its a standard unit of measurement

2018-10-10 10:23:56 UTC  

GD on the other hand is very SP and balaned around SP

2018-10-10 10:24:19 UTC  

FUnny you mention that

2018-10-10 10:24:23 UTC  

They were inspired by D2

2018-10-10 10:24:27 UTC  

it just feels like a weird barrier

2018-10-10 10:24:36 UTC  

They said that late game, people stopped trading with gold

2018-10-10 10:24:40 UTC  

But with specific runes.

2018-10-10 10:25:11 UTC  

Now I didnt play D2

2018-10-10 10:25:11 UTC  

late game, people just cheat

2018-10-10 10:25:22 UTC  

edit in what you need

2018-10-10 10:25:23 UTC  

But I know theres runes that people use as trading if they didnt cheat.

2018-10-10 10:25:37 UTC  

Sometimes consumables.

2018-10-10 10:25:54 UTC  

They basically took something unique to D2's community and made it in PoE

2018-10-10 10:25:58 UTC  

Now heres the issue with gold

2018-10-10 10:26:08 UTC  

If I trade gold with someone, the gold still remains in the system

2018-10-10 10:26:17 UTC  

Longer the game progresses, more gold will accumalate.

2018-10-10 10:26:45 UTC  

In a SP mainly game like GD or PoE, not an issue.

2018-10-10 10:27:14 UTC  

And the gold can only be 'destroyed" through in game services like crafting

2018-10-10 10:27:32 UTC  

PoE manages by making all currency "destroyable"

2018-10-10 10:27:41 UTC  

This keeps the economy in check

2018-10-10 10:28:01 UTC  

besides if you stuck around long enough, youd know, Chaos orbs are their equivalent of the "gold bit"

2018-10-10 10:28:24 UTC  

With exalted orbs their equivalent of the "gold dollar"

2018-10-10 10:28:51 UTC  

I honestly preferred this system in PoE

2018-10-10 10:30:30 UTC  
2018-10-10 10:30:50 UTC  

it just seems like a weird step for a loot and scoot to make most of the loot essentially worthless, technically that might be true of most games but i dunno

2018-10-10 10:31:05 UTC  

this AI just does not understand intersectional feminist theory

2018-10-10 10:31:11 UTC  

Nah loot is valuable.

2018-10-10 10:31:18 UTC  

But you still need some "inbetween"

2018-10-10 10:31:44 UTC  

Also Id argue that PoE's loot is kinda better than "pick up everything and vendor"

2018-10-10 10:31:55 UTC  

Discourages hourding.

2018-10-10 10:32:19 UTC  

LOL.. OK... "Reuters was told by members of the team working on it that the system effectively taught itself that male candidates were preferable"

rip

2018-10-10 11:03:00 UTC  

People get paid to produce that?
