I basically agree with your friend that we have a trade system, so why bother building a similar facility.

But I'm a bit hopeful that it might help to eliminate dead stock of manufactured goods in the early stages of the project.

I think the more familiar you are with this game, the more you will be making middle class and above living goods and food from the early stages of the game with an eye on the middle and later stages. Beer is a typical example. You have no use for it until you build a tavern, and every time you make a keg of the prerequisite item or a finished beer, you drain the treasury as a resource purchase.

Knowing this, I would still build it because of the cute uniforms of the brewery and tavern and because I want to see a beer festival when fall arrives.

Also, as the status of Ratizens rises, the production rate increases, supply exceeds demand, and bags and other household items accumulate as dead stock.

Currently, until we started trade, the only way to prevent these problems was to force Ratizens to pay high taxes to collect them, but I hope that this can be sold by the trading post.

Don't forget it is one of the few buildings you can jump on!

I don't really like the trading as it is now, it's neither intuitive nor "programmable." It's also hard to build everything if you start with a poor seed or lose resources due to despawning. Having the new building should make it easier for new people because it will make it harder to mess up early game by accident

I like the trading post.

In the early stages, it became very easy to sell surplus items such as daily necessities and beer. It's also nice to be able to get papyrus and tree seeds.

In the early stages of the game, it was always difficult to explore the map for trading because the cost was too high. I think that trading has now become end content, which is probably the developer's intention.

I'm looking forward to future updates to the trading post.
I want rare merchants to visit and sell special items with a low probability. For example, it would be great if there were exotic costumes for leaders or "rat trading" like in the previous game, Ratropolis. I want the cute residents of Rattella to live in our country.

Of course, it would be nice if we could form alliances and emigrate peacefully.

Has everyone watched DevDiary30 ?
Trading Post looks good and can easily obtain resources (especially volcano related resources)
I even saw the seed, that's great
I am very much looking forward to Trading Post and have shared it with my friend
But my friend and I have different opinions about Trading Post
I think Trading Post makes game more easy, is a good thing:praisesun:

But my friend thinks this system disrupts the balance of the game
Destroyed the enthusiasm for map exploration
He thinks it's disappointing to add Trading Post when the game has Trading system
I argued with him for a long time without any result,I really don't understand him:pselisa:
So I would like to know everyone's opinion about Trading Post, good or bad?it really ruin the game as he said?

It is literally to build a city it doesn't ruin anything if you cannot trade for resources you might lack resources down the road IE necessities.

Edit
I understand we're talking two types of trading. well having two sources of trade is still good, especially with the one you build resets on a daily basis.
