ARR Gil Cap Reduction

[Aion]

Say item x cost 20m in 1.0. Someone want to sell it in ARR for 15m (150m in 1.0). Most players don't have more than 7m in ARR (70m in 1.0).
The seller can now decrease his price or wait until the players have enough money. But don't forget, we get 1/10 gil from leves, from stuff we sell to npc, from quests, from chests and from monsters (I hope they change the "earn x gil from killing enemies" achievement). It get harder to earn the 8m to buy the item that cost 15m (the 8m would be the same as 80m in 1.0). So the seller have no other choice than to decrease his price.

LOGIC FTW!

lol you can call me a troll all you want, but i have less posts on here because I actually spend time playing the game, instead of bashing peoples opinion to fit you own.

You're saying that .. instead of NOT wasting gil, people would just start breaking ToS and buying gil? And you expect us to believe you aren't a troll?

if 35 post make me a troll, somehow i don't see it, I have an issue about this thread and loss, people say im not losing but i am, and people like you saying I dont comprehend and antagonizing me about it are just here to piss me off.

We're seriously not trying to antagonize you, we are merely trying to get you to understand that when the money changes, it changes universally, so in the end the base numerics don't matter: the percentages do.

And the net % change relative between you and the rest of the economy is zero.

Like I said read 14pro ranking look at my character, read the achievements, and time spent on the game vs here on the forums. I play the game and understand you can not see the point I am making.

And many of us have done way more than you have. What's your point?

Right now 1 gil could roughly be compared to a penny. In 2.0 all our pennies are being converted in to dimes. They will be worth the same, you just won't have so much trouble keeping your pants up if you keep all your money in your pockets.

Anyone who is STILL arguing that this is a negative change is either a troll, an idiot, or both.

As for the argument about people not selling things at adjusted rates after 2.0...

The player based market requires TWO THINGS:

Players who are willing to sell things.

and players who want to buy things.

If you are thinking people are going to continue to sell things with their current price tags just ask yourself this simple question.

Would you buy it?

If you wouldn't buy it, chances are not many people are willing to buy it either.

Just because someone puts something up for sale at a given price DOESN'T MEAN IT WILL SELL AT THAT PRICE.

If no one is willing to pay that amount, it won't sell and the person will be forced to lower their prices to remain competitive.

Is it going to be a straight transition once 2.0 starts? Probably not. But chances are if you feel a given price after 2.0 is too high, you won't be alone, and the item won't sell and in a few days the price will go down.

If you STILL think this is an unfair change and you are some how being deprived of something you put a lot of effort into acquiring, I'll be happy to take your gil when you quit.

lol 8 people is not many, but I give you props on time spent on the game vs someone that has nothing to lose.
