[EternityFate]

Other good example... if i buy 50m gil in mogstation( i have money for that) i can go to MD and say in shout chat b> ALL PRIMALS HARD,EXTREME F* mode b> the binding coil of bahamut turn 1-5 10m gil... and later peoples will post " this game is horrible there is nothing to do" -.- i don't understand this world... YOU WANT ENJOY THE GAME OR JUST BUY THINGS AND CRY IN FORUM?

The game i'm talking about is P2P as well. You're just putting up a wall, not caring how it actually works. We usually don't respect opinions like yours. The idea i'm talking about isn't selling gil.

You said this system CAN work and I just said this system in Final Fantasy Realm Reborn never will work. SE don't want lose players because that ^^ RMT system here is a serious issue. I hope you don't understand me wrong

I'm not asking for the system. The OP was. His idea is BAD, selling in game currency directly is BAD. But there IS a way the idea can work, AND it gets MORE people to play and supports SE more. And the Gil still has to be earned in game normally. But you're being too stubborn to care.

No, you understand it wrong. If done correctly, you can actually get MORE people to play. People that wouldn't or couldn't normally play, would be able to.

Note i'm not advocating for or against this.

There's already a game that has legitimate RMT, but not the way the OP posted. Game has been around for over 10 years now. Contrary to how people feel, if it's done right it can work, but again, has to be done right. It also works better in that game due to a single unified server. The way it works there is that the Money isn't created out of thin air, which is what would happen if SE directly sold Gil for Money. The in game market would determine the price.

The system CAN work, and it doesn't drive people away like you seem to think it will. It just can't be done the way the OP posted.

I assume you're talking about EVE. EVE is a completely different kind of game with a different kind of playerbase and I don't think that model would be well received here at all.

Price floors above market price just create demand for a black market, setting the floor even higher creates more demand. The vast majority of buyers don't care about the source. Diablo 3 had a official means of buying gold and for a long period the majority of buyers never used it because the floor was way too far above the market price, it just became a tool of arbitrage.

Learn basic economics OP.

EVE isn't the only game that has used the system. And right now it wouldn't work in XIV either, would likely be too easy to exploit currently. However, what many people seem to miss on their RAGE about it making a game Pay to Win(It doesn't really) is that it fights RMT very well if implemented properly.

If you over price it how will that stop rmt...? That would just make ppl go buy from them even more cos their cheaper.. Learn how to trade

EVE is pretty much the only game I've ever seen it work well in, but it's set up for it so it works well.

For those who don't know: When you buy game time, it comes as a physical item (PLEX) that you use to add time to your account. You don't have to use it though, and can instead sell it to other players. Likewise, if you're rich enough to be the person buying them in game, you can essentially play for "free". The price is based around the in game economy, so there's no worry of creating inflation as the money you get is something that already existed, not simply created. It's a very clever way of combating RMT, by allowing players to trade off something that they're going to need to buy anyways (subscription time).
