>even majority of r*dd*t*rs admit they buy gold ingame
Is this audience actually cooked? Why is buying gold such a big part of this game?

Why would you buy gold? The most fun part of the game is grinding crap and putting it on the AH and seeing that mail icon pop up for the gold you've made

I got like 1.5k gold leveling up normally via fishing, mining, and enchanting, you really dont even need that much more than that unless people run shit like GDKPs not even counting the shit I spent

It's a cycle of groups expecting all consumables under the sun, so people end up buying gold to get those consumables, which fuels the economy of gold buying, which inflates the value of gold, which means the price of everything going up.
