spaceshiprat (#41978) sorry, but yes, inflation is an Inevitability of life. Don’t try to tell me, a grown adult that it’s not. If it wasn’t, why control for it?

If you are trying to convince me this is a better money sink, then convince me - I’m open to seeing how it would work. I don’t think it will because I have seen this go really badly before and destroy games I enjoyed. Many times. I know the real motivation behind it. It’s not to “balance game economy”. It won’t do that, the game developers know it won’t do that. They ultimately want to make money. Of course that’s what they want. Why wouldn’t they? They can only make money on turnips. Legally they cannot sell potatoes for real world currency, but they can put things in game that can be converted turnip to potato. (This is the legalities, they *cannot* sell cash to potatoes directly). By increasing the potato price of something limited, they can ultimately sell more turnips because of the selling turnip bought items for potatoes on the tradesmarket. They can make more money by raising something that is in game currency and say it’s due to more in game currency floating around. It’s sneaky and underhanded. Not transparent. They did it without announcing anything. Do you really think I’m just saying this because I think it looks bad? I think it’s borderline illegal and definitely exploitative. I’ve seen it done on so many games and I am stunned to see if done within the first two months on this game. Tell me I don’t know how the in game economy works. I know how game economies work.
