Economy
When Elder Tale was simply a game, Gold was earned either by defeating a monster or by completing a quest. It was used to buy food and items in the game. Each player had his/her own account in the bank at the Guild Building in order to protect their assets from theft. The concept of money took on a new meaning when the players found themselves trapped inside the game and needed to use that money for daily life. On average, 35 gold per day is sufficient for basic survival, meaning that an Adventurer needs to only defeat up to 6 Goblins for living expenses. However, this is very little incentive to earn more after the Apocalypse, since the People of the Land no longer give out quests and the Adventurers automatically respawn if they die. Furthermore, with the food all initally tasting bland, there was no real difference between simple cuisine and the more expensive fare.

With the discovery of new foods and inventions, the economy is now being driven to bring new life into Akihabara and to relieve the despair and boredom. With the rush to create new inventions, comes a demand for new products and therefore the need to earn more money to buy them. The search for ingredients and materials spurs on the need for hunting and exploration. This in turn gives combat guilds more work as body guards and defense.

As an additional bonus, the new foods and inventions also attracts new customers from the People of the Land, thereby giving the Adventurers an opportunity to learn more about the world they are trapped in.
