Player Owned Stalls

Postby aptson » Thu Apr 14, 2016 4:01 pm

I would like to request that you change the fact that you cant remove items from the stalls after putting them in it. its not realistic at all. Not only that but you guys already slam us with a 35% tax just for trying to trade with them, which would be fine if i could completely control what i put in the thing. I don't think its fair at all that you cant remove or adjust items to whatever price you want either. I payed money to "own" that stall and i don't even have control over it. If this thread needs to get moved so be it, but honestly you make it really hard for new players to get into the game, You need more quality of life updates to make this game more popular, and that's a fact. If you want to say that we focus on end game content for vet's, well they like quality of life updates too. People don't like putting stuff in there newly purchased stall just to find out that they cant even remove the stuff. PLEASE CHANGE

PS at the very least start added warning message's on certain mechanics, its not about being what you guys call "Care bear" its about making your game a success, and quality of life updates are the kind of things you do to make it successful. Just a friendly piece of advice from a fellow gamer.

those limitations are in because otherwise stalls are abused into oblivion.
I'll give you a hint: unlimited, 100% safe storage.
I have neither the crayons nor the time to explain it to you.

I think you are missing the point of the post. He was actually complaining about not being informed by stall limitations upon acquiring it for the first time. That is something that should be better explained since what human being does not expect to be abble to take an item back from a stand? Or its magic that prevents you from taking it back?
I know, its those damned witches again.
You are right, its 100% safe storage. BUT, if you put all of those limitations on a stall, shouldn't a player at least be informed about certain aspects of owning a stall after buying it the first time?
Small popup window giving hints would mean alot for newcomers.

First of all Abused..? well considering you can die in game and have your stall relinquished i wouldn't say anything is 100% safe storage. Also if you don't pay your deposit because you died then how is that stuff safe?

Second "unlimited"? you only get 1000 space's to store things i would hardly call that unlimited. Also i payed 7k silver for that storage if i want to "abuse" it by putting things in it for a little safer keeping that is my choice because i earned it. Also by doing that i take away some of the space that is available to merchant items, along with the chance that someone buy's the item if priced wrong. its still a risk. again my stall, my choice.

alright then, nearly unlimited storage, 100% safe compared to other ways of keeping your stuff safe.
Also, keep in mind that the price setting is based on the current implementation. I don't see it beyond a certain dev of ours to put in everything you ask for, and at the same time tenfolding their costs. The current prices are ridiculously cheap for the kind of storage you propose.

On-topic of the help info: i'd say anyone thinking about buying a stall has come to a point in the game where they know information is not handed to you on a silver platter, and knows to ask other players about mechanics. The devs have to decide when the handholding stops, and I'd say stalls are post that line by a long shot.

Lol everything i ask for? i have inquired about 2 mechanics thus far in this game since i started playing a little over a month ago. i dont want to reiterate what i said above but i don't think its too much to ask to be able to set your own price's or take items in and out of your own personal stall.

This is the exact way of thinking that prevents progress in expanding a game to new players.. if you don't understand that then i have nothing more to say.
