SSE Item Economy Pool and sentimental value

[Jappards]

I have been thinking about putting some of my ideas here and decided to do so to see what people will do with it. One thing that bugged me is that items sold go into the void, as if sithis directly intervenes against his own interests.

 

1. items sold are put into a pool depending on the hold you are in.

2. Items from this pool are randomly distributed among NPCs every 48 hours(along with merchants restocking), prioritizing weapons for warrior NPCs, books for priests/housecarls/court wizards and so on.

3. Items bleed into neighboring holds, doing so every few days.

 

And maybe:

 

4. Each item has a sentimental value that can be positive or negative. The value decreases when you are caught with a crime and increases when doing certain quests and saving people.

5. Ordinary shopkeepers will give a higher price for items with a high sentimental value, but refuse to buy any item with too low of a sentimental value. The higher the sentimental value, the higher the price.

6. Merchants willing to buy your stolen goods will have a high price for items having a low sentimental value.

7. Occasionally, NPCs may get caught with such items and go into prison for a few days for it.
