StaceyPowers Posted October 5, 2022 Share Posted October 5, 2022 I love that in RDR 2, I can actually pick up items off shelves in stores and examine them and buy them, rather than just using a shopping menu. What are some other games that feature interesting shopping mechanics? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What are some other games that feature interesting shopping mechanics? Yeah it's a nice little feature, but I tend to just use the catalog so I can mass buy stuff. It's a lot faster. But if you're wanting to immerse yourself more in the game, buying it that way is an option. I believe you can do it in any shop, including the doctors office. I don't think you can do it for clothes though, that'd be kinda cool if you could. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Demon_skeith Posted October 6, 2022 Share Posted October 6, 2022 I always liked the 3D zelda games, it always gave you a full view of the items before buying. Ajibusu and killamch89 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

killamch89 Posted October 6, 2022 Share Posted October 6, 2022 I'm not too sure to be honest, it's one of the many unique mechanics in RDR2 that I don't think I've really seen anywhere else unless it was added by mods. The rest usually open a menu and you purchase stuff out of it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Blackangel Posted October 6, 2022 Share Posted October 6, 2022 There are several NES games that have this feature. Legacy Of The Wizard is one. Others include Legend Of The Mystical Ninja and FF8. It's all over the place. Not to the same caliber of RDR2, but it's not an uncommon feature.

Been ages since FF 8, but I don't recall able to see items. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Justin11 Posted October 7, 2022 Share Posted October 7, 2022 It's something you do often playing any GTA game. GTA is a collection of real-life activities, I feel very comfortable playing GTA 5, I go to anywhere I wish to go around the game, shop my favourite items.

If you go to any store, there’s a list of what you can buy. Technically, the only things that are straight up visible in the physical sense are your weapons. Like Squall’s gunblade and Quistis’s whip. But anything and everything that’s in your inventory is fair game to buy and sell. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Isn't the point of this topic for the non-shop menu list buying? 🤔 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Empire Posted October 8, 2022 Share Posted October 8, 2022 Shopping Simulators games, there are so many of them that allows you to do that, not talking about GTA in fact Gas station sim also allows you to shop and sell 😛 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Syntax Posted October 20, 2022 Share Posted October 20, 2022 As you stated, RDR2, GTA V, RuneScape/World of Warcraft, and even Skyrim are good examples I can think of that have this similar feature set. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I like to completely digest every content of a video game I am playing, though I just visit the catalog and buy items but most of the time I spend my time in those shelves hand picking and examining the items , it makes it more realistic and adds to the fun for me.

egghead Posted October 27, 2022 Share Posted October 27, 2022 I have spent a lot of money on in-game transactions on numerous games but mostly on Roblox and Valorant. I buy skin, armors, etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lol I did spend a lot of my in-game money on cars when I play asphalt and in fortnite as well for some skins and weapons. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
