ARR Gil Cap Reduction

[KadeDoom]

Oh i can grasp the concept, but Se needs to re-think this issue, even if prices drop on npcs that doesn't mean people in the market wards will, so say right now a LW craft synth takes 1 buffalo hide, and that hide now is 4.3k per, and not available via npc, so someone has to actually farm this item, it wont decrease in price, most likely it will go from 4.3 to 12k per because people gonna wanna make back all the gil they were raped from at the change.
The only thing taking gil from people will do is drive the player eco up, and if they're trying to decrease it then this is the worst way of doing it.

You thought RMT issue was a problem before, wait till this happens, you don't think there will be 500 mil same looking characters named sdfsdfsdf sdfdsfsdf on your server, lagging up each ather doing the same leve over and over to remake back what SE took from them?

And ya I spent time on this game making money so I could be lazy and buy materials and not have to waste my time farming stuff, I get 0 exp on, so ya this blows major, I have over 100 mil and it took me a long time to achieve this, and your god damn right I'm pissed off after reading this bullshit.

Good Assumption!! XD

If people were worried about new players being intimidated by seeing items priced so high imagine how they will feel when they are getting 10 gil for lvl 1 leves. I mean... its all about perception right?

Your money, the RMT's money, has gone no where. It has be consolidated into a more concentrated unit.

And yes because all npcs, monsters, and quests reward at 1/10 the rate, market prices WILL go down (though some may need time, as I assure you some people will try to juke you into retarded 1.0 pricing).

If a leather is easy to obtain it's not going to sell for $4,200 in 2.0. That would be 42,000 Gil currently for a leather. People will simply wait it out because that would be outrageously expensive. At FIRST it will be like this, but over time everything will level out.

The change is all about perception... The numbers look too big, I have always thought so since my first day. It just 'feels' better to see a level 1 Hempen Dalmatica for sale for 78 gil vs. 780 gil. Even though I could buy one easily after doing a guildleve.

The only thing to fear is if players selling items don't reduce their prices as well.

I think for awhile people will price stuff at the old rates and some dumb people will buy it, but eventually it will get lowered.

What "fear"? If no one buys, they won't sell period. Yes some people will try to sell things at 1.0 prices but that won't work for long. If in front of you, you have customers with 10 times less money as before they won't be able to pay the same amount of money for items...

I don't understand how hard this is to understand :/ The economy will regulate itself quickly enough.

That's what they said before the meltdown... >.>

[Rannie]
