TRADE BETWEEN PLAYERS NEEDS TO CHANGE IN POE2

Hello GGG,

With all due respect and the best intentions, I would like to provide some constructive criticism that many others in the POE2 community have also been expressing to GGG.

The truth is that the trading system between players is completely confusing and nonsensical. To elaborate, why do I have to go to an external website to find or sell an item and then conduct the trade within the game itself? This makes no sense!

Additionally, the fact that you can only make transactions while online is extremely frustrating. Not all players have time to be constantly in the game. As a result, the user experience is diminished. Even if a player manages to obtain good equipment, they often can't sell it to purchase items that would benefit their character.

You could create a marketplace similar to the one in Albion Online. In that game, players don't need to be online to complete their transactions, and the official currency is gold itself. See the following example:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HgSENw3E-co https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NJS88gL8Wms


I hope this issue is addressed as soon as possible, before you start losing POE2 players—especially during early access.

Wishing you the best!
