🏚️ 💰 WE NEED AUCTION HOUSE NOT TRADES!!!
Amidst the no-replies I've had to tolerate and the bait-and-switches attempts I've had to guard against, I did have one particularly tiresome trade venture that went like this, the initial "conversation" stretching across an hour:
Seller: lists item x for n Me: @Seller Hi, I would like to buy your x listed for n, etc etc Seller: *no reply* Me: *refreshes trade page, sees Seller has re-listed x for n+1* Me: @Seller Hi, I would like to buy your x listed for n+1, etc etc Seller: *no reply* Me: *refreshes trade page, sees Seller has re-listed x for n+2* Me: @Seller Hi, I would like to buy your x listed for n+2, etc etc Seller: *no reply* Me: *refreshes trade page, sees Seller has re-listed x for n+3* Me: @Seller Hi, I would like to buy your x listed for n+3, etc etc Seller: *no reply* Me: hey, I'm willing to buy x for n+6 Seller: *no reply* Me: *refreshes trade page, sees Seller has re-listed x for n+7* Me: *nope, done, time to look for alternatives* Seller, next day: hey, are you still interested in x? I was annoyed with Seller's games, but I'm more bothered by this draconian trade system. I've read that this system aligns with some sort of developer "vision" — as do some other seemingly player-unfriendly decisions — but as a player, I don't find any of it fun. And I'm happy to see I'm far from the only one. I uninstalled when I read the 0.2 patch notes and saw the feedback; as it stands, I'm happy to be no longer playing and I'm bitter-sweetly mourning the ~500 hours I put into 0.1. If I cared a little bit more, I'd go ahead and make a meme, but I can't be bothered. I reckon everyone knows the format (or, indeed, the source material), anyway, so a reference is all I need to convey the sentiment: "No, it's the players who are wrong." |

Would love an auction house, it is really annoying to have to use an outside soft like sidekick and the trade website that can sometimes lock you for some time if you are checking too many item prices, the amount of times I messaged people and got ignored is astonishing,the amount of people that set fake prices to only be at the top of the list is also annoying, really don't see why we can't just have an in-game auction, and god If you really want , sell us auction stash tabs....

If you had an auction house you wouldn't need to buy stash tabs , this is the reason there is no auction house

" Can always implement an auto trade button that takes the item out of the stash and puts the currency into the sellers stash. That doesn't take a lot of coding work. |

"I'm more inclined to believe their database is messed up and it would require an entire rework to get it to work with an auction house. Look at what Last Epoch had to do they have 15 different auction houses because each one is its own siloed database. |

" Ex: You can have only 1 stash on action house selling stuff and if want more, pay for more tabs |

" AH massively reduces Scams, fake prices and makes trading far more convenient for players, just because Blizzard put a bad taste in your mouth with D3 AH it doesn't mean the concept is bad, just the way Blizzard did it was stupid. GGG seem allergic to increasing drop rates so this is the alternative. Stop making excuses for GGG, they know trade is horrible, they know people aren't happy but people like you defending their inaction allows them to carry on being lazy and ignoring player feedback. |

For other parts the game must be playable without and action house, trade web etc..
When they have game completely finished with all ACTS, Endgame, Bugs, Skills, Balances etc the can start to think on an action house, but for now there are more important things on the table to cry about an action house. I play SSF, no action house needed. And the trade site was working for years and years... its cry for cry now, this system can survive 2 years more easy. Now you have problems to trade because NO LOOT and NO CRAFT |
