Are Stash Tabs Pay To Win ? Science

tabs are P2W. look no further than the previous post in my history, or the thread I made not too long ago, for explanation.

but GGG deserve credit where it's due, given the fact it's the only form of P2W the game has, while GGG's model for profit is based almost entirely on MTX.

and you picked one heck of a trollish way to present this, Crusader.
Alva: I'm sweating like a hog in heat
Shadow: That was fun
I hate arguing semantics buy you guys don't understand what P2W means. Id doesn't mean that you get a slight advantage if you support the company. It means that the game was designed to REQUIRE that you support the company in order to play the game.

Both are valid definitions of the term.

First definition: Diablo III RMAH
Second definition: The latest trendsetters of bullshit mobile games like Dungeon Keeper and RCT, may the franchises RIP.

Both can be considered pay-to-win.

Are stash tabs pay to win? They do enable to save significant amounts of time, but do not really result in a gameplay advantage unless you know how to efficiently use that time saved.
Extra storage is not P2W. Extra Procurement tabs, extra chaos recipe storage, that kind of stuff... well, the difference is still marginal enough. I'd say there's a point where the P2W potential of tabs are saturated. There's a significant difference between 4 and 10 tabs, somewhat lesser difference between 10 and 20 tabs, even lesser difference between 20 and 40 tabs, and above 40 you're more or less approaching redundancy.

So it's really not that clear-cut, nor dramatic. $30 will get you the majority of the gameplay advantage you need, and still you have to work for it.
Have you made a cool build using The Coming Calamity? Let me know!

What happened to inventories of possible 25 characters per account and reality that one can create unlimited accounts for muling?

You are really gonna use the Alch recipe as the example for p2w? Try again lol. Stash tabs are not p2w, especially not in your example. Alch recipe is highly time ineffective, you're better off not doing it and instead using the time to farm stuff. You probably wanted to use the Chaos recipe as an example, but then you realized this would be even more stupid, so you tried something else. Still failed though :> 2/10 for effort.
GGG banning all political discussion shortly after getting acquired by China is a weird coincidence.
it is quite obvious that stash tabs are a form of p2w

this "debate" has been over for quite some time.

it's pointless trying to convince the hardcore poe fans though. it's like trying to convince a climate change denier that carbon dioxide is a real gas, or have a discussion about geology with a fundamentalist who thinks Earth is 400 years old or whatever

to some people, logic just does not enter their skulls on certain topics. dogmatic.

If new accounts, with their 24 character slot inventories and 4 stash tabs, cost money, you'd have a point.
No. Calm down. Learn to enjoy losing.
Alright, so 'stash tabs are pay2win' is the new meme.

No. You are just a fanboy, right?

Seriously, this bullshit thread and all their defenders are a spit in the face of GGG considering that there are companies like Sony Online Entertainment out there that market true P2W features as "pay for convenience".

PoE's competitive aspect stays free of legal P2W features.
