You are sailing down a river and come across...

...a vending stand, set up on the riverbank in a small cobbled area flanked by torches and well landscaped. It seems to belong to a nearby lone farmer and there aren't any other nearby settlements. You notice the vending stand contains food items that you certainly could use and realize the farmer/cook is asking for bronze and cast iron coins in return so that he might acquire much needed metal. Do you:

A) Say to yourself, 'This guy spent alot time to make this area look nice and enrich my playing experience. I surely need the food and his prices are fair.' You deposit the coins and buy the food you need.

B) Say to yourself, 'Trade is dead, thanks to poor decisions by the devs.' You steal the food you need and go ahead and take what few coins the farmer/cook has left in the vending stand. As you sail away, you mumble to yourself about horses, fast travel, villages, shipping crates, carts, bridges, and well, you've sailed out of range, so I have no idea what else you had on your mind...

C) Say to yourself, 'This guy spent alot time to make this area look nice and enrich my playing experience. However, I already have everything this game has to offer and feel more inclined to wreck his shit.' You destroy the vending stand, letting its contents decay on the ground. 'He'd be lucky if I don't also come ashore and wreck the rest of his shit.'

D) Say to yourself, 'These options are too limited, allow me to post and detail what I'd do...'

D) I don't have any coins, I steal everything on the stand, smash it and then proceed to steal everything valuable on his claim too

Admire his optimism and his desire to make the game nice, would buy it from him if I had the right currency because < see reason in first words.

Agree totally with B.

And hope an asshole who agrees with C doesn't come along, or drops dead in real life, whichever is easiest for the Godz to arrange.

So admire it, wish everyone was the same and sail on.
