If SoE and Blizzard decided to one day, say fuck it, and allow anyone to buy and sell currency, you would see the bot trains you see in L2, you would see the robots by the dozens taking over areas and taking over spawns. There would be /who hunter 60 x 10000 in Dire Maul, and the value of anything you sold on the player market would be inflated beyond any reasonable proportion. You would be in essence, forced to buy from the secondary market to keep up.
How the fuck is that a good idea? No, you and your selfish compadres can only see the benefit to yourself, and that is where your logic fails, and fails badly. |
As I said before...
I don't give a shit. Whether the game turns to crap, everything costs a
virtual arm and a leg or the entire
virtual world is run by bots, I don't care. I'd just stop playing the
game and do something else. I will have had my
fun.
I don't even want to play a
game for years or even several months a time. I don't care if it's healthy for that long. There are plenty of other games now and there will be plenty more in the future.
All of this shit is
temporary and
virtual. These
games are created for no reason than other than to
entertain in exchange for money.
Just like WoW removed heaping handfuls of the shit that stunk up EQ. The next signifigant game will refine itself, cast off some annoying, worthless time-wasting, fun-impeding contrivance then live and die the same way.
I find it hilarious that you treat all this
temporary,
virtual,
entertainment for the well-off with such seriousness. As if there's some crime against humanity being committed here?
