They shut that down quite quickly though. Because you could make money too easily. Shark Cards only baby! Fuck our interesting gameplay mechanic, strip that shit out, MTX, make RockStar into the comically evil tech corpos they mock in GTA V’s own story. $$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$
minus-squareMinnesotaGoddam@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up3·2 days agoHeh. I have played a few games, and the only ones with functional auction houses and economies had ways to put real money in, but not get real money out.
minus-squaresp3ctr4l@lemmy.dbzer0.comlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up3·2 days agoWell the original GTA stock market did not let you take real money out. That would have been completely insane. Basically only EVE online, I think, has anything close to that, kind of, its complicated. But the point I’m getting at is… they had a game mechanic that, if you were clever, could make you in game rich. They destroyed this mechanic, and replaced it with ‘if you want to be in game rich, give us actual moneh.’
