An issue almost EVERY game developer forgot about.

Oh no the world is under attack by flying flaming buttocks! Only one hero stands a chance against them! But wait, even though the ass monsters are horrible and deadly, you still have to pay to save the world.

Take Diablo II for an example, in the rogue encampment, you have to PAY to be armed. For that Gheed person it's justified because he's a merchant and he's looking to move back to Luht Golhem when the stuff's over, but the people who LIVE there force you to pay to save their home.

It's confusing! It's like saying "That guy's about to shoot me dead, but in order to save me you have to pay five dollars for the rights to".

So anyways, why the hell would you have to pay to get these weapons, if you need them to save the merchant's life?

He needs to make money somehow.

Plus the merchants are actually Mr.Krabs.

Choose the better deal:

Being temporarily rich until a demon beheads you in the most painful matter possible
Going broke while stuff's hitting the fan, but living to tell the tale.

Phantasy Star Online/universe.

"You are one of our workers. Here's a cheap ass starting weapon. Go save the world. Too hard? Buy weapons or slay thousands of monsters that'll eventually crap out rare weapons."

But it's still a fun game.

At least with Dynasty warriors, you're paying the blacksmith to MAKE the weapons. They need the money to buy the materials.

Why the forget can't I steal guns after killing the shop owner in GTA IV? It's so handicapped.

You're the ONLY person in the world who can and will do something!

Another thing that doesn't make sense.

"Only one out of three billion can stop a dude from shooting some lasers"

A shield made out of bark can deflect explosive nuts that stun 20-foot-tall arachnids!

Anything (movies, games) where the bad guy's minions/workers turn on him at end.

Seriously, if you think he's bad and unfair, it shouldn't take a 'hero' saying "he's bad you can do better" to revolt.

You can block weapons with your hands in some games.

Well, mooks aren't really smart to start out with. They're working for madmen for a lousy pay. They could do better by getting a better job where they aren't endlessly dispensed like bullets.

loving Johnny, has the balls to shotgun people the forget out of a car, but still has to have a slight bit of consumer ethic and pay for the guns that come out of shops.
