Stop "fixing" the MW scrap it

[Kilta_Firelotus]

Dude the only difference between MW and an AH is walking to the retainer. That is the same abount of time you take to bid on an item in ffxi, the same amount of time it takes for the item or money to deliver to the mail box and you picking it up.

Honestly I think they will only kick retainers who are either in a the wrong ward. Or b nothing on the retainer. AH doesn't fix these issues it will make new ones like it being hard to get money because 300 ppl are selling the same item. Or items are over priced even worst. OR items are bougt to quickly to keep up making them.

Tjese are all issues I had with Ah's. Infact it takes me longer in ffxi to buy something because of the AH congestion and trying to big and the price is higher then last sold.

Took me like an hour today to sell some gear, because I'd have to go search it, run back to my retainer, put it up for x price, run back to door, search for next item, run back to retainer, blahaha i guess i could have wrote it down but where is the fun in that!!!

I hate MW, its such an immersion killer for me lol.

which you didn't have to do. i set my own prices an my stuff sells in minutes.

Under Cutting and Deception = Success

Surpisingly I check AFTER i price my items and I tend to be close to the listed prices. I sell my ore at ffxi price which happens to be ffxiv price as well 300-500 gil per ore that I sell :P

actually AH are immersion killers. Since they take you out of the game. MH do not since you still play your character in real time.

That whole scenario sounds like immersion to me... You, a small-time business owner wishing to sell her product, needs to take the time to scan the market to see what similar products are selling for. You then price accordingly. I do not think that task is nearly as tedious as some in this game...battle leves for example, and it sounds way more immersive. ^^;

Indeed, this is what happens when they give us info on things.

Also, OP the MWs do work just because you're lazy doesn't mean they don't.

What is or isn't "immersive" is different depending on who you ask though. What one person may find pulls them into the game world, another may find absolutely annoying to the point of frothing at the mouth rage and it makes them stop playing all together. I'm also not so sure that many gamers even know what the word immersion actually means to begin with when they argue for something increasing or reducing immersion. In any event, different strokes, or so the saying goes.

I guess so. Maybe 'immersion' to them is not being drawn into the tasks of the game? But rather immersed in not paying attention to the intricacy and story of what the game and tasks offer? Maybe I'm just more observant and willing to place what some consider 'tedious' into a story, which it technically is, of the character and their tasks. I guess if I didn't think of things in this manner I could become annoyed with it too, but it seems self-defeating to view the game in this in a way that makes you not appreciate what you're doing. =(

Why not just scrap the whole game while we're at it.
