Property System

[Avgar]

Downside I see:

- Some properties cannot be afforded by relatively new players, such as prime shop locations in main street, though this is somewhat realistic too and prevents new players from buying extremely expensive locations without putting them to good use.

I agree with the positives you mentioned, however I have to disagree here and say that with the current prices there is no use good enough for these properties to be put to that would return the investment made. This is killing any roleplays that are not strictly based on monetary gain (and hurting those that are). If prices remain as they are right now, people playing in service jobs will either raise their cut to exorbitant levels (also causing self supplying to become a bigger problem) or stop using properties altogether. Neither of these options is positive, in my opinion. Realism means nothing if it means hurting player experience.
