Is The Fun Leaving The Game

If gold selling and buying are a symptom, and the grind required to get money and/or items in game is the disease, then what would happen if we removed - or severely restricted - or changed, somehow - what is considered a “good” reward in MMOs?

These lines are the beginning of an article about “good” rewards in MMO’s that really is a very interesting philosophical discussion about whether there would be any way to change the “currency”  - not to another type of currency - but get rid of the “payment” system and the grind that one has to go through to get “paid”.

I don’t think that  it is exchangable, and I think that the way one percieves the grind is a mindset - it can be viewed as repetative boring and tasklike, instead of fun, or, it could be viewed as a medatative means- to - an -  end - part - of - the - game.
