A Trading System Could Make This Game More Money

I've seen multiple people quit the game because of the almost unobtainable items and its long grind. I like grinding the game, but there needs to be progression of some sort. If the Amorphous Material I farmed for an hour drops the same parts just about, then there is no progression. Meaning, if the desired part or item doesn't drop for a long time, people would just lose interest at some point and quit. Now if there would be some sort of trading system in the game, then I would know I can later on go to Albion and trade the duplicate parts with someone else. Meaning, I am not doing this for nothing, and ultimately progressing me in the game.

If it is about making money, then I can tell you if my interest in the game is kept, I am more likely to spend more money on the game. In this case, progression will keep my interest. This is what this game is about. You want to progressively increase the strength of your Descendant and weapons. Items being pretty much out of reach will ultimately lose them money because people will be leaving the game over time.

Therefore, the endgame grind has to be progressive in some way. If no progression is achieved, then it is normal for a player to lose motivation and move on to something else.
