You will be able to buy a variety of different properties including fully functioning castles and farms. I’m not sure what you will be able to do with the castles yet but if you buy a farm you will be able to grow crops and raise livestock for gold. I have also been looking into other methods for the player to gain gold rather then fighting. The introduction of these systems allow for people to complete the game without fighting, for example you could run a farm and hire mercenaries or buy tame monsters to fight for you. I don’t consider this cheating as you will have to train the mercenaries/monsters to be able to deal with tougher enemies and in the end its just another style of playing this game. I hope to have more info for you soon.
