    The reason it's so low is because no ones buying their product. This tends to happen when people are happy with the money they get from normally just playing the game. With the Ventures acting as a lottery where you can sometimes pull in items that sell for between 200-500k depending on server theres a lot of money in the market which means players are happy which means they aren't going out to buy stuff from RMT's.

    I personally think SE's found a small sweet spot for giving people money and its rather nice.

    I have to thank Square-Enix for the amazing job they have done recreating Final Fantasy XIV from Scratch. Especially the inclusion of Missing Genders which we petitioned for in good faith. This was proof to us players that the Developers are truly Sympathetic to our requests and that being honest and vocal can pay off with the amazing characters we have who are Female Roegadyn, Male Miqote, and Female Highlanders. Thank You SE, Thank You Community Team, Thank You Yoshi-P.

    Probably also why the tells are climbing in frequency again. They are getting a little antsy to sell the gil they're farming only to have GMs jailing their advertisers every other day. "Price so cheap, how not sell?!" Maybe because people are getting ticked at all the advertising.

    OP seems to not quite grasp the English language yet. Good work on the marketing strategy, by the way.

    Also I don't think you know what the word inflated means. If gil was inflated like you said anyone and everyone can get their gear melded because prices would be low not high.
    Inflation mean that the amount of gil every player have rise and rise and rise. The prices rise also, because the players can pay the high prices.
    What you mean is deflation, where the prices fall because nobody have enough gil to pay it.

    No only the product is in deflation in his example it is materia, has nothing to do with the gil. If gil was in inflation everything would be over priced in game. This isn't the case have seen the marketboards everything is dirt cheap except certain materia and high end crafted gear and vanity materials and gear.

    As inflation rises, every dollar will buy a smaller percentage of a good. For example, if the inflation rate is 2%, then a $1 pack of gum will cost $1.02 in a year.

    Ur analogy is wrong. If something was selling for 100k and novus comes out and prices per materia change to 500k. You then see new players that u know damn well dnt have this gil buying out the market, the legit players get shafted.
