Auto looting in a game like this will destroy the economy inflation wise. The game is designed around the fact that you can't currently auto loot currency. If they do impliment auto looting, GGG would need to nerf the everloving crap out of currency drop rates and that would only slow down the inflation, not control it.

What are you talking about? Almost every single modern arpg has this shit these days. Ever played titan quest? That was a perfect system for lazy fuckers like me. ^^

I'll admit to ignorance not having played titan quest. But you don't even need to have much experience with economics to know what my example is a pretty accurate analogy to PoE specifically.

My first questions in my head when you bring up Titan Quest (rhetorical, I can always look it up later) is things like "How vibrant and vital is the economy to gameplay versus PoE? Are there significant currency sinks (PoE clearly does not have efficient enough currency sinks to keep up with the number of players generating and hoarding currency)? And what purpose does the currency have outside of standard sinks that may be secondary passive sink systems?"

You can pretty easily compare the economy of PoE to early D3 related to how over abundant gold was, causing everything on the auction house to have massive price tags if they were worth a damn, and the only sinks in the game were too miniscule to matter at that time, so prices just kept rising to keep up with the amount of gold being generated in total by players. You would sell your item for x more gold because everybody who played in the last hour/day/week was now worth that much more passive gold and could technically pay that much more to get that item even if they didn't want to pay more because they were saving up for its original cost.

I'm not sure that I fully understand what you are saying. Are you saying auto loot for currency is a bad thing because people's lazyness to pick up currency is sort of a currency sink?
