[PS5 - HOT THREAD] We Need In-Game Price Tracking Like PC Has!

This applies equally to XBox, as both consoles are closed systems we can’t run macros etc (even if GGG did blame Xboxes for boting a few weeks back, it’s just not possible).
Whilst there is no way Microsoft or Sony will allow us macros, GGG (who are well aware of the most popular macros) could ‘buy’ or negotiate the rights to insert them into the core game the same way they did with Neversink filters.

Let’s be real—trading on console is *painful* compared to PC. The worst part? We don’t have tools like Trade Macro or Awakened PoE Trade to quickly check item prices. Instead, we’re stuck alt-tabbing to our phones or praying we don’t undersell a mirror-tier drop.

GGG, can we PLEASE get built-in price tracking for PS5?** Something as simple as:
- A button to **highlight an item and see its approximate market value** (no third-party apps needed).
- Integrated search filters in the trade menu (so we don’t have to manually type every stat).
- Push notifications for sold items (because checking the website every 10 minutes is exhausting).

Console players shouldn’t have to play *20 Questions* with every rare item. If cross-play is off the table, at least give us QoL tools to make trading less of a chore.

Upvote if you agree! Maybe if this gets enough attention, GGG will throw us a bone.


+1 as an XBox user and thread should be renamed to Console not PS5 ;)

Although PC has those Tools.

to be effective at the sale of said item, you cant just go off that price you see on screen, yeah it gives a rough value.

but you still need to alt tab go to trade and refine the search, and also modify options to find the best fit for the item.

aka what console does.

just have a tool show the price doesnt do squat.

as the tools are riddled with every price, aka including bots, who buy the items list for stupid prices, to devalue the market, you think an items worth 1 ex, but thats because 200 people intentionally list it at an ex, hoping people list it for that.

the tool isnt as good as you think it is.
or better yet give us auction house... but yeah ingame price check is a good one
We need a fricking auction house. GGG resistance agaisnt that is unreasonable and unlogical. Having no ingame AH literally solves nothing.

GGG refuse to implement such tool. Trade macro, etc. are all 3rd party, made by wonderful members of the community.

You have no chance, unless you make it yourself.

They are dead-set on forcing players to open a browser to find items/trade, like most things these days, just to irritate the player, no benefit at all.

You CAN view/buy the microtransactions in-game tho... so there is that.

The problem with that mentality that its ok for 3rd party to do and also telling the community the game was built with consoles in mind does not really mesh well. Console will never get that edge, so you either design it or stop allowing the macros and bots and ai ruining the game. Almost feels like the linked economy was a mistake at this point.
We need quality of life improvements if they want the game to succeed if AH is not on the table we at least NEED price checking on console
If they implement that they'll earn a lot of positive feedback from all console players
It's a win/win
