Yesterday I tried the marketplace the first time.
Friends warned me not to do it…but I did. And it was shocking.
We have these type of games now for round 25 years…this game is in dev for years and they shown this to the testers.
I know…I know…it’s not the real thing for sure…but then it’s even worse….give us the thing you want tested…and please remove this.
What we could have in my opinion should be something like this….
1) Player markets in each town…starting in Lion. Don’t let players drive for 20 minutes to reach one.
2) Each player should be able to add and take stuff to the market at the marketplace they visit.
Now for the fun….
Taking stuff off the market in a town you are not citizen off for at least 48 hours, means you pay a tax of 10% that goes to the town and player if the players is living in that town. Town gets 4% player 6%.
Taking stuff of the market the market in a town other then the one where the players who placed it on it lives gives another 10% extra tax…same way off splitting unless you do it from your own town the. The full 10% goes to the player.
This way people don’t have to drive in the little time they have to get stuff…and players who do want to travel get a discount.
Placing items on the market in your own time cost nothing when you are a citizen for at least 5 days.
Before that it cost 5% going to that town.
People with own house get to put stuff on the market always for free.
Put items on the market and let people search by item name, how rare it is or price range or so.
I know some hate it….but many people don’t have the play time to search the market for hours because search options don’t work. They want to play…fight mobs and players…not the marketmanager.
So….
Ashes of creation take down this market system fast and replace it with one that’s equal or better then we seen in the last 25 years.
Not one that’s the worst ever seen in a alpha or live game.

Get rid of all the fees, taxes, time gates, and weird rules. Then, just add a tiny 0.25% listing fee (same for buy orders and sell orders). Once that’s done, let each local market have a tax set by the mayor. But if I list my items while the tax is 1%, it should stay 1% until my order expires or gets filled. That way, I’m protected if the mayor decides to jack the tax from 1% to 100%.
