RMT killed this game before it began.

The 1999 trade system is a joke in 2025. Fact.

Also, yes PoE1 RMT happened, of course. I fail to see how it was a 'huge issue.' Yes, I'd rather it not exist but it does and it will continue to exist in any game with trading not specifically designed around making it impossible. People still exist so RMT will exist.

You're grasping at straws, if one person can do it in public without any repercussions, I don't expect any punishment for RMT at all, since it's also very hard to prove for GGG, unless someone admits it - like the case above and even there nothing happened.

It plays a huge role in Diablo 2 also. They cheat and dupe and that's how people have enigma on day 2 of the ladder season. It sucks that SSF is the only answer because playing and trading with others is really fun but this group of people that only see the game as a vehicle to make a profit ruin it for others.

Yeah I agree, but I think D2 SSF is much more rewarding, since you can actually leave many items on the ground, due to the clearer itemization. It's also more forgiving, so even if you're not dealing top damage, you can still clear the content in a decent time.

If you don't trade in PoE2 it will hold you back much more, even halt your progression, since the game is designed that way.

I mean when I heard PoE2 will be free2play I was sceptical how they could probably achieve that, after seeing the engagement mechanisms/psychological tricks in play, I understand it much better.

Yes? More currency drops every second and there is no currency sink besides gambling?

Aaaah, thats why the value between exalts and divines was +-20 exatls stable other a month, while we had double the amount of players and now its rising by 20-30 exalts per day.

If you're so confident nothing will happen go RMT and show you RMT'd on reddit and on the main forums and see if your outcome is the same. You can't hedge your bet to play both sides of "unless they admit it" and "even admitting it, nothing happened."

It's actually funny that you have to paint specific scenarios for your point and still don't deliver any proof.

Just go ahead and tell me if you think anything will happen if you buy Divines for real money and say nothing.
I'll give you a hint, the correct answer starts with a N.

You derailed the argument with the introduction of useless "what if"-scenarios.

The main point was always:
RMT are a thing and GGG doesn't care.

Feel free to show me some bans people received for RMT, on a popular auction platform you can see thousands of items sold in not even a week.
And that's one platform in one region, there are several sites and forums that do RMT.

I mean at this point, the RMAH from Diablo 3 doesn't look that bad anymore.

This and bad loot in SSF

[Laciel]

SSF is really bad. And trading should not be mandatory for getting semi-decent items. I don't get why we can't have crafring table to change one modifier on an item. Everything is a gamble and you barely get any chances to even try.

OP is not wrong. I mean you need a unique or some weapon to make your build work at least average.

A) you can grind for 100's of hours and never get the item or enough money to trade for it
B) buy it for 5 bucks on RMT

Is it wrong? Yes, but that is some dangling fruit with those options. 99.99% of the drops are trash. And most of the stuff we use is best we have.

Exactly. no one with a high paying job wants to spend that much time grinding.

I do like how you made it more specific. As if you assume those who have higher pay should have privileges. More of that rules for thee but not for me BS
