and have been assured that Tencent has never tried to interfere with game design or operations outside of China. We retain full control of Path of Exile and will only make changes that we feel are best for the game.

We develop almost all features on the international version. But sometimes, Tencent will request features that they want to try in the Chinese version that we don't plan to roll into the international version. If those features turn out to be a really good fit for both versions, then we of course port them back into the international version.

So yeah RMT in the chinese client is coded into the game and approved explicitly by GGG. Making them ethically culpable and proving with 100% certainty that they have a hypocritical double standard within their own game, allowing chinese players to RMT while banning International Client players for even saying they RMT.

This is the definition of moral/ethical cowardice, hypocrisy, aka not practicing what you preach.

everything should be unified under one server...

all servers should merge into the china version...

from the china based version, then make localized language for all other languages...

legalize rmt...

put all currencies and items and crafting into cash shop...

but make it f2p so that whatever thing u can get from cash shop, u can also grind it in-game...

its time china rule the world...

I don't think that there is anything hypocritical about having two different policies for two different markets. It is called intelligent marketing.

Its the definition of hypocritical, if a Priest goes to southeast asia and diddles a 13 y/o Boy because its not illegal there is he no longer a pedo because its accepted in that culture?

GGG condones RMT for a huge segment of their player base and bans people from the other chunk of their player base for the exact same behavour. This is a cowardly and frankly a little absurd double standard because its' 100% clear that they have no actual ethical qualms with RMT, they are merely doing it because some small ignorant segment of their EU and NA player base has outdated ideals and a nearly fetishistic obsession with what other players do in a 99% PvE game and how they spend their money.

As I've noted most EU and NA game players don't hold this old fashion 90's era view on RMT, most MMO's literally have official RMT

It's kinda time for GGG to step away from this policy that makes them look two faced and hypocritical.
