Games where you play as a Merchant Anonymous 03/19/2025 (Wed) 20:35:26 Id: 07e6fa No. 1080891
Games where you engage in mercantile activities, preferably fantasy/historical rather than modern businessman shit. Not the same type of fantasy. Recettear is a pretty classic example and involves you running a shop in a fantasy JRPG world. Port Royale 2 is a great game set in the Carribean where you play as a merchant/Privateer going around the Carribean selling shit to different towns and nations, engaging in wars, hunting pirates etc. Unfortunately, it does not really allow you to be a pirate. The economy is pretty complex from what I've seen and many games do not get to the same level as this one.

It has naval combat but it's mostly about being a ship merchant

Brighter Shores has a merchant profession, which is pretty well done. It works basically like being a middleman merchant in RuneScape. It's not as fleshed out as these other games, but the hope is it will be when player to player trading is added.

>>1080891 What's more historical than managing the greatest company that ever was? I'll personally vouch for any of the X series games if you can stomach sci-fi, though.

The Guild II actually lets you RP as a (((merchant))). Last time I played it (modded) I made the most offensively looking kike character its limited char creator allowed and devoted it towards crafting arcane trinkets made out of corpse parts and selling them to the illiterate masses. while also digging my way through the local political sphere too bad it didnt include those yellow jew hats. Then I married a rowdy tomboy rogue. >>1080893 Delet that fake cover, this is the real one.
