Why PoE 2 will again not get a Auction house? (or trading system)

I think it is important to consider what the tradeoff of having an easier trade system would be. In the years I have played this game if some combination of item's or even crafted mod's become desired by a lot player's because they are powerful. GGG balances this power by making the items or craft's more scarce. As it is now they seem to balance powerful item's around its scarcity and the friction of trade is a part this. Remove that friction and suddenly they need to readjust the rarity of just about everything to compensate.
POE will not make a meaningful trading platform because they lack the skillsets to design one.

No other reason.

What a stupid thing to say.

You honestly think they couldn't design a trading platform (they already have one), when they have made one of the best ARPG's on the market already.

If every item in the game was as easy as going to a vendor/shop and right clicking, it would completely destroy the games economy, as it stands every item has a certain amount of friction/weight to it.

The more desirable an item, the rarer it is and harder it can be to acquire. If all you had to do was right click and it's yours, instead of actually interacting with the current trading system, each season would be over in a couple weeks.

Game's already dead before it arrives.
They give certain people just way more power as they already have, but I'm sure lot's of people are already thrilled and excited about more bots and tft clown fiesta on an even higher level of market manipulation just for the sake of being able to instant buy stuff.
The better approach would have been a full ssf balanced game without any trading, and maybe just short trading in party play like D3 did it. It would remove close to most rmt
Flames and madness. I'm so glad I didn't miss the fun.

This isn't winning, and it's sad you can't see that.
