As I mentioned in another thread on this subject... what you all are asking for flies in the face of 'realism' within the game world. There is no electricity, no internet, no 'Amazon' in ancient Tamriel- yet- you want to have a system that basically defies logic simply for 'convenience' because you don't want to actually have to do what people did before electricity, internet and 'Amazon'- and that's actually go from store to store and check for items directly.

In DCUO, they had a marketplace, but it fit within a game that consisted of advanced technology. In ESO, we have magic, but not sure how a 'magical marketplace' would fit within those 'realistic' parameters.

So as much as it would be more convenient to have a connected marketplace, in order to continue the sense of immersion and RPG environment within ESO, I'm opposed to it.

Do you REALLY want to go this route. Am I, and possibly others, really going to list every "immersion breaking" thing in this game for you to see how foolish that argument is?

Locking a majority of the playerbase out of the economy is ridiculous. It's even worse on consoles where there is no text chat. Ah yes text chat. Talking to players all across tamriel regardless of proximity. I suppose magic is an acceptable answer for that, but when it comes to the buying and selling of goods? Preposterous.
