From their, it’s up to the player, whether you want to do work for other people or trade on your own account. Traveling around the world you workout what sells well where, what’s cheap where, who will pay for what to be done, and just when you’ve got the hang of one world you find a portal that allows you into another world... and then another, and another.…</blockquote>

It's still not out in the United States. I've heard some bad things about it, but not too much specific. Still, adding a trade system to CRPGs is a good idea.

Ad for Spells of Gold:
You got your trading sim in my CRPG!
No, you got your CRPG all over my trading sim!
Wait, this tastes great!

...and the (rest of the) world would have to wait...for a translation!
