I've played MMO's for years, but if there's one thing I enjoy the most it's making in game money, the legitimate way; no botting, no cheating of any kind, just gathering, crafting, buying/selling, or any other form of market manipulation.
Few MMO's, however, have extensive markets. Some could say WoW does, but compared to some, it's not that extensive. Eve online, on the other hand, is completely player driven and I love it. Ragnarok Online is also a game with a good market, as any item goes and player merchants are encouraged (it's a whole class, of course it's important to the game). Both EVE and Ragnarok have many addon's and sites to help with market data.
I played WoW for years, but while I don't play it any more, the most fun I had was farming herbs and selling 10's of thousands of gold in flasks and potions.
WoW aside, can you think of any MMO out there with extensive game markets?
More specifically, do any of these other games have apps, or at least websites, that help players learn how to make money or who give up to date market data?
Here's one example of a site that just goes to show how extensive the market is in EVE (if you don't know much about it): http://www.eve-markets.net/
And one for Ragnarok: http://www.ragial.com/
I look forward to any suggestions!
Oh, and it can be either free to play or pay to play, as well as browser based for that matter.
