Not in Diablo 2 and especially if real money is involved .
So again why are you trying to normalize something which is clearly done outside the game and affects gameplay by spending real life currency ? And ofc referring to the real life currency transactions that happen on d2jsp .
Buying items indirectly with token purchased via real life currency in Diablo 2 is not something I would consider normal by any definition . Why would you consider this a normal thing ?
Also why are you trying to paint it as something normal when it clearly isnāt ?
Tell me when exactly buying items indirectly for real life currency was anywhere near normal in Diablo 2 ?
For example items in Diablo 2 are normally aquired by playing the game , not by buying fake currency via real life currency on third party websites .
So practicing 20 years of real life transactions leading up to aquiring ingame items is something completely normal to you . Good to know .
Now letās go back to reality for a second , aquiring items in Diablo 2 is normally done by playing the game - not by buying fake token currency on third party websites .
Correct me if Iām wrong ofc .
Who would have guessed what was considered normal for Diablo 2 .
If thatās the normal way to aquire items in game as you said , then we can agree that buying token currency that leads indirectly to aquiring items in game is nowhere near normal but something you try to normalize just because you and a lot of other have been practicing on d2jsp for 20 years ?
My point is not all over the place , maybe my writing is .
See they are not both normal methods , one requires you to play the game and the other one requires real life currency transactions via third party website .
They are completely different , one is normal and one isnāt .
d2jsp facilitates the latter while Diablo 2 doesnāt .
No we didnāt because both ways are objectively different in the first place .
One requires real money transaction and the other one doesnāt .
You can call the white black for so long , i mean yeah .
We already established that d2jsp in fact sells their own currency which is forum gold , which has to be bought with real money at some point in the chain .
