Are there plans to add the option to afk grind like in the mobile version?
I know i know people that love to zombie grind will jump and say "woaaaah but we love to grind and do the same rotation over nad over and over for 8-9 h evry day evry week" well ofcorse you can do that if you love it but for me its a waste of time...
Anyay

ummm lets say at least to get half of the items as an afk if we make 500 mil non afk to be able to make 250 mil afk for an 1h 
I play the mobile version and while i am afk i get good items money etc so i can still be competitive 
Soooo what ya think?

No, because it's not a mobile game!

So everyone would gain progression of playing 12 hours per day.  Sounds amazing.  Lets not forget to simplify the UI, add a bunch of pop up menus everywhere, auto questing, more currencies, and a mess of things to track.  I want the full mobile experience.

You already have training dummies for afk exp and a variety of life skills for afk silver.

But you cant turn off the game
And you dont get combat exp and the important drops its not about the silver its about all the loot skill and exp combined the inf pots will be so much relive to alot of people and you can becompeditive vurses other people and even versus the people that are rich in real life :)

Calling high geared players "rich" or "no life" is an easy way to ease your brain of thoughts of being lesser than others by using congnitive dissonance as a means to feel better about yourself :)

I think all the dislikes speak for the overall player-base, if players wanted to have some type of AFK grinding, they would go play Black Desert Mobile. There are plenty of AFK and Semi-AFK methods of getting silver, grinding should NEVER be one of those methods.

Talk about killing off PvE content...

Even with the idea of reducing silver per hour, you're still having a chance to make more money for doing nothing. If your active grind funds were to be 400m/h but the AFK system reduced it to only 100m/h, you're just having to AFK for four hours to make the same amount of money. That's an easy movie, school or work time. The point of grinding giving you the best silver per hour is because you're actively grinding and have that factor of PvP spot contesting.

I'm not hating on BDMobile at all, I play it along with Console but did you stop and think about how open world PvP is a heavy factor within PC? What's gonna happen to the AFKers if they die? Would the AI be able to fight back? Can players abuse the AI blocking paths with horses or tents? What if a flagged player comes, lowers AI HP as much as possible and lets the mob kill the AFK AI causing billions to be lost in crystals? What about mob density in rotations, have you seen how different rotations between PC and Mobile are? The AI would need to have a set path that could be affected in unexpected ways.

I'm glad to discuss all of this and hear what the counter to my questions would be as we're in "General Discussion", but don't see this becoming a real suggestion for improvement.
