Money Spider	comment	In the Real World, animals don't use money. Not so in Video- and Role-Playing Games. For many game economies, wealth is associated with dangerous creatures; if you can attack it and it is alive (in some sense) and/or able to theoretically attack in return, it probably has some actual currency that will become available upon its death. This will be true almost without regard for the creature's ability to carry money, its interest in money, whether it's sentient enough to comprehend money, or any connection with the existence of money. On occasion, this is true regardless of whether it had money the first time. Occasionally, there will be an in-game Hand Wave saying that there's a bounty on the monsters you're fighting. However, unless there's a specific sub-quest requiring you to, say, slay twenty bears and bring back their asses, you will never be required to talk to a specific person or prove that you've killed the monsters in order to get the money. Shop Fodder is sometimes used as a more realistic version — killing the monsters doesn't get you immediate money, but you can easily sell their teeth, hides, or feathers back in town. However, this eats up precious seconds of a player's time, in which time you might get bored and switch to another game. And we can't have that, now can we? While having a danger-based currency is rather plausible (for certain values of plausible) — after all, currency stands for commodities (goods or services) or labor, and killing a dangerous creature is not only a useful service, especially in a monster-filled world, but can indeed be quite a bit of labor — this has largely become a Discredited Trope, to the point that reviewers occasionally bash game developers for making monsters drop money. Parodied in a great number of video-game-based webcomics and other satire. For a specific enemy that you seek out because it carries a lot of money (or other rewards), see PiÃ±ata Enemy, with tougher variants being Metal Slimes. Named for the spiders in the family Linyphiidae, called "money spiders" in the UK from the superstition that they are associated with wealth. Ironically in light of the trope, these spiders are supposed to be left unharmed in order to become richer. For the general case of monsters dropping implausible items, see Impossible Item Drop.

Enemies no longer drop cash; either you get used to finding and selling Shop Fodder, learn to cheat demons out of their Macca, find out where the human mobs (the only enemy that does carry money) spawn, or scurry around Tennozu Shelter until you can find Black Rider, however long that might take...

But in the early stage of the first game, there's a little girl with a level 5 Meddy who will rematch you as often as you like, and happily dole out 100G or so every time you beat her. After you beat the first Legend, you'll also gain access to Battle Genesis 5, which you can play over and over again for 100G a win. In the second, if you're lucky, you'll run across a trainer in a random encounter who hands out money.

The last few minutes of the episode depicts scores and scores of happy children collecting the toys scattered all over the streets, never mind they're playing with chunks of flesh from a deceased monster. It's very likely this scene was added because Tsuburaya at the time had a Product Placement deal with another toy company, but within the context of the episode it feels really out of place.

Money Spider / int_1c1ceec7	comment	In Monster Hunter, you get most of your money from doing quests, and a comparatively small amount from selling random monster bits. However, said bits can also be crafted into weapons and armour; in fact, virtually all the high-level items are made from rare parts of fairly dangerous monsters, and a great many of them look like they are. Practically every drop in the game, outside of the special event quests like Arena quests, is something that would logically be found on the monster. Also, capturing said monster yields more components than outright killing it because you brought it back in (mostly) one piece.

Money Spider / int_291e9857	comment	Justified in Dark Souls. Enemies aren't dropping money, they're dropping ''souls," the magical force that allows the undead to continue to move as if alive. The more powerful the Undead, the more souls they drop. The player is no exception, dropping any "sovereignless souls," (i.e souls they haven't permanently committed to their body by leveling up) upon death. Spiritual Successor Elden Ring uses the same system, thematically refluffed. Beings in the Lands Between aren't undead, but the damage to the Elden Ring has left some natural laws suspended, including the ability for things to stay dead. They drop Runes instead, the building blocks of life in the Lands Between.

Money Spider / int_331e009	comment	Borderlands 2: Crystalisks are large, three-legged creatures that have crystal (natch) clusters on their legs and main body. Destroying these clusters is the fastest way to dispatch them (they can be destroyed with a single melee attack) and each cluster explodes into crystals that can be picked up for money. When all of the clusters are gone, they further explode into more money crystals. In a mission where you collect audio logs, you find out that it was because of their Money Spider status that they became hostile to humans. Initially docile, the Dahl corporation began mining them to the disagreement of a security officer who befriended them and died trying to protect them. Eventually this led to the Crystalisks becoming completely hostile towards humanity and severely biting the humans in the ass. Skags do not drop money per-se, but they do drop guns, ammo and just about everything else in the game (most of which are vendor trash if you've gotten far enough). This is because their super-omnivore habits has them eat anything they can, spitting out what they can't digest. They also have a slight preference for the taste of guns and Audio Diaries (which you learn in one conveniently lampshade heavy diary you find in a skag).

Instead, you have to take pictures of them during battle, wait for the pictures to develop, then sell them. This was such a hassle that the sequel, Baten Kaitos Origins returned to the more traditional "monsters drop money" system, and it actually felt like an improvement. Unfortunately, there's very little worth buying in the sequel (unlike the first game, where ransacking every shop you come across is a good strategy), so the improvement goes unnoticed most of the time.

Money Spider / int_4895f82	comment	Similarly, in the MMORPG Asheron's Call, enemies often spawn with weapons that they are actually wielding against you. Mobs tend to drop specific types of items, for example, the little rat like monsters drop the occasional few coins, but also like to drop magical orbs (shiny objects), golems and undead tend to drop magical components, humanoid monsters tend to drop weapons, armor, and random food, etc. Most of the money in the game is made by selling randomly generated gear that drops to NPCs or other players.

However, they do drop loot — valuable hides, minerals, and so forth, which can be sold at shops for actual gil. The looting system is strange, as it allows you to steal skin and skulls from enemies while they are still alive, and then have the same loot from a drop or poach.

When he meets a team of low-level adventurers, they explain that they were planning on earning money by killing monsters near their city. Momonga allies with them, and after helping them kill a group of monsters, they start cutting off ears. They explain that they bring the body parts back to the city as proof that they've killed a certain number of monsters, and the city pays money according to how dangerous each type of monster was, to encourage adventurers to keep the area surrounding the city safe. Momonga was clearly expecting the ogres to be carrying something valuable like crystals, and one of the locals points out how outlandish that sounds.

That said, this is a relatively rare occurrence, so it's easy to justify as this particular wolf just having happened to snack on some guy and accidentally ingest treasure. If you're lucky enough you can, inexplicably, find two flawless rubies in the goat that lives in Falkreath. Meaning a goat could be richer than most NPCs in the game. Most dragons you fight drop various pieces of armor and other such treasures, including gold, which one can reasonably assume belonged to the people they've eaten. This is played up in the first dragon you fight, where he snatches up a guard as part of a cutscene, and you can later loot said guard's armor after killing the dragon.

It's explicitly handled as being bounties on monsters, and handled more reasonably than most. Certain monsters become a special "target" for a short time, that gets you a bonus amount but needs to be turned in while it's still good; similarly, bosses come in the form of "Wanted" monsters that have especially high bounties — that also need to be turned in. You can also sell certain items dropped by monsters to bars as ingredients... although some of these are pretty unappetizing, like dirt from under monkeys' nails.

Instead, you get it from either treasure chests in the twisted, ever-changing, extra-dimensional random dungeon, or you pull it from some inner part of your mind if you pick the right randomly shuffled card at the end of some battles.

Money Spider / int_5bfa9c98	comment	Warframe has just about every enemy type drop credits. The Corpus are the easiest ones to explain, being theocratic hyper-capitalists who worship the concept of profit and having money, so it's probably a borderline religious sacrament to have cold hard cash on their person. They place money in their robotic proxies as well as many of these designs have courier-like functions off the battlefield. The Grineer also use credits for purchases. It seems strange that so many of their troops would be carrying credits until you realize that they are basically an army serving a fascist bureaucracy; the grunts with coins in their pockets just got paid their stipend to spend at the equipment commissary. The Infested don't look like they should use money at all, being a type of space virus. However, being formed from the twisted bodies of Corpus and Grineer, it's possible a common soldier with money on their person was infected and turned a horrible mass of Infested flesh. The Corrupted operate on a similar logic—Orokin mind control technology simply captured and enslaved nearby Corpus/Grineer/Infested, including those who randomly had money on hand. Notably, common Sentient units have no use for money and do not drop it, being something of hive mind comprised of pseudo-organic attack drones; instead, they drop useful pieces of themselves such as their valuable cores.

However, shooting the crows for some reason yields the best treasures you can get early on. Also, boss characters (such as the U3 in the shipping crates) carry immensely valuable bars of gold. What, did the rage-crazed beast figure it was a secure financial investment? In actuality, this trope probably applies less to the money and more to the ammunition for your weapons. You can snag ammo for all sorts of firearms from the villagers and other enemies who don't use guns at all. Perhaps the village had known that Leon was wandering around and decided to hide all the ammo for the lone shotgun in the upstairs bedroom but then why would they carry that ammo on their person? They even carry ammo for guns that can't be found anywhere but from the Merchant (such as TMP rounds). Plus you can do other weird things to restock your supply. Bird's nest? Shoot it down and have yourself a box of rifle ammo. Now we know what really happened to Kennedy... The game will keep track of your progress through the game and enemies will drop things you lack the most: they tend to drop herbs if you're low on health, ammo if you keep blasting everything you see, and more money if you're low on cash.

Money doesn't exist and most enemies only drop either generic scrap for weapon upgrades, or ammo for the weapon class they're wielding. However, it gets a bit weird when animals also drop weapons scrap (implied to be their bones, however that's supposed to work), and the game drops its internal logic entirely once you start looting tons of bullets and shotgun shells off of millennia-old undead samurai that fight with nothing but bows and melee weapons. Rise of the Tomb Raider does pretty much the same thing, only with ancient Byzantine warriors instead of the samurai. Both examples did have brief contact with modern firearms prior to fighting Lara, but not nearly enough to justify their carrying around so much ammo for weapons they don't use.

Money Spider / int_6ac55ec7	comment	Dungeons & Dragons: The list of creatures with treasures comprises a variety of beings one would not expect to have accumulated such wealth or to carry it around. The implication is that the creature has killed a number of wealthy passers-by, whose (useless to the creature) wealth was left to litter the creature's lair. For creatures encountered outside their lair, however, the explanation is often sketchy or non-existent. Dragons carry lots of treasure on their naked bodies. This is explained as them taking Scrooge McDuck-style money-baths in their hordes with coins and treasure getting stuck in their scales. In at least one edition of AD&D, it's stated that the treasure values given are only for monsters encountered in their lair. DMs are expected to give nothing, or some appropriately small amount, for wandering monsters. This rule tends to be ignored. Later editions at least try to encourage DMs to only put equipment on enemies if it would make sense for them to have them. Some tricks include keeping tally of the encounters the players have completed, and then having the players find the accumulated "loot" at an appropriate juncture (in the monsters' lair, for instance). In 3.5, while many monsters do collect varying amounts treasure, wild animals and monsters with designs that would prevent them from acquiring loot in some way (such as not having opposable thumbs, or having incorporeal bodies or low intelligence scores) are listed as being incapable of carrying treasure at all. The original intent was for money and magic to be the goal. Characters improved through collection of Experience Points, but monsters were worth quite little XP. Their treasures were worth 1 XP per Gold Piece, which amounted to much more XP value (plus of course you get the gold). So your goal was to fight as little as possible while trying to find money. Wandering monsters didn't carry treasure. Do you keep all your money in your wallet? But a lair contained treasure even if the monster was out. So avoiding wandering monsters was imperative since they were just a dangerous waste of time. And since wandering monsters had a chance of coming at regular intervals, they were effectively a penalty for wasting time. More efficient, skillful players were more successful even if their characters weren't all that hot. In D&D's fourth edition, while the player characters' income is definitely still meant to come from treasure to the point that there are standard expected rewards per level (with the actual economy of the game world, such as it is, being run strictly by NPCs in the background — there are no official "money-making" skills as such anymore and used gear and common items can only be sold at bargain prices, never anywhere near market value let alone for profit), those treasures are not linked to specific creatures or encounters anymore. So a party of five first-level characters may be able to expect about four magic items plus 720 gold pieces' worth of "monetary" treasure total, give or take, in the course of advancing to second level; but the placement of said treasures (in the common hoard of a bunch of monsters, abandoned in some dungeon, as a reward by quest givers or even actually dropped by magical spiders if desired) is wholly up to the DM. A common practice amongst DMs is to place all of the treasure at a logical point in the adventure, such as in a monster's lair, or as a bounty. In situations where massive piles of gold are impractical, a DM might place a piece of Shop Fodder amongst the loot, worth the amount of currency expected. One technique to allow loot for wandering non-humanoid monsters that would swallow prey whole (giant lizards, crocodiles, sharks, etc.) would be to have the treasure in the creature's stomach. This is why many old school roleplayers will slit a creature's stomach in their search for treasure. In First Edition, the tarrasque's hide is basically made from diamonds, which can be extracted with some effort. In the final Ecology article in Dragon magazine (3.5 Edition), Jonathan M. Richards has his Monster Hunters consider this aspect of the tarrasque legend and conclude that it's probably nonsense. Alkadas are fascinated by shiny objects, and when they come across a gem, jeweled item, shiny stone, piece of glass or the like, they stuff it into their mouth to carry around in a growing hoard of treasure and gewgaws accumulated in their belly, released only on the creature's death.

In Adventurer Mode, coins can be found stored in containers in bandits' camps or scattered around lairs of creatures who hoard them, and can be stolen without fighting the owners. Even then it's not too often a very large amount of money, and you'll probably get more selling the bandit's gear, gear of those who the monster killed before, and the monster's butchered corpse (assuming you can butcher it).

Money Spider / int_6c1d09b4	comment	Taken to absurd extents in Fallout 4, where "legendary" enemies will drop special legendary items upon death. While this can lead to organic story-telling opportunities - an exceptionally strong ghoul now carries a gun that affects ghouls more strongly to show off its strength - it more oftens lead to a bloatfly carrying a minigun larger than it, a mole rat carrying a gun or piece of armor that presumably would have had to have been swallowed.

The pearls you need for black-market goods make sense, since the pearls actually seem to be Domz-based somehow (therefore be expensive). And you can get money by photographing animals, because there is an ecologist (you only communicate with her by radio) who downloads the photos for her data collection. All of this would make perfect sense... but then, you kick a rat and money falls out. It's like they worked really hard to avert the trope, and then forgot they had done so and just played it straight.

Money Spider / int_74f7210c	comment	The Legend of Zelda: Certain enemies throughout the series will drop a Rupee or a few if killed, although it's generally more common for foes to drop health pickups. The Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past: If startled, spiny beetles will scurry around in a panic and drop Rupees as they go. The Legend of Zelda: Four Swords Adventures: Dark Links either a Big Green (100) or Big Blue (150) Force Gem upon defeat — all of them, even if they're clones. The Legend of Zelda: A Link Between Worlds: The Gemesaur King, a boss, is a giant helmasaur with gems buried in its armor. As such, every time you hurt it, you get rupees. Lots of them. The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild: While most creatures only produce Organ Drops, a few will leave behind cash for a number of reasons: Yiga Footsoldiers, some of the few human enemies in the game, will drop a handful of Rupees on defeat, implicitly spare change dropped as they teleport away. Treasure octoroks, Chest Monsters that disguise themselves as treasure, will also leave behind a few Rupees alongside a scattering of tentacles, eyes or gas bladders. Blupees are magical rabbit-like creatures that drop Rupees whenever hit with a weapon, and their chief in-game purpose is to be milked for money in this manner. A variant, and the only one not to have an implicit or explicit explanation or to be addressed in-game as being odd, are the silver and golden tiers of enemies, which will leave behind precious gems on defeat. The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom adds Like Likes, equipment-eating monsters that always drop a treasure chest containing a shield or weapon on defeat.

This would make a lot of sense because everybody is going to war, so there would be no reason to lug around money when you are about to fight, possibly to the death. Even if there was, giving the accumulated mass of war debris that would pile up, it would probably be hard to find. Instead all money is given through quests and at the end of certain timeframes, where you are paid for your part in the battle. The one time people WOULD drop money would be treasure mode, where you have to bring caches of treasure to your base. As both sides are dropping it, it can be assumed that both armies were transporting their gold and using the opportunity to pick up more from the enemy.

Money Spider / int_7f5bc680	comment	Fallout: In Fallout 3 and New Vegas, the wildlife doesn't carry anything other than its meat and/or body parts. Feral ghouls have odds and ends like bottle caps (the game's currency) or bobby pins because they were once humans who just got unlucky with a little radiation exposure. Enemies drop (and use) only what they have on them, or in the case of insects/robots, what they're made of. Human enemies will, however, pick up useful items they find lying around, which can lead to a particularly annoying case of a bandit happening across the best (unique) weapon in the game, and then vaporizing you with it out of the blue. In Fallout 3, Super Mutant Behemoths (Fifty foot tall monsters carrying improvised clubs made from street lights) drop a ridiculous amount of loot when killed off. It could be handwaved by saying that the armor and guns the creature was carrying are actually from someone else, whom the Behemoth happened to eat. Regular Super Mutants and their ilk tend only to drop what they are carrying. Background info explains that the other Super Mutants use the (even less intelligent than they are) behemoths as pack mules, which partially explains the random assortment of junk. In Fallout 2, animals never have any lootable gear of any kind. The major exception is after the player learns gecko skinning from a man in an early town; from then on dead geckos (a large post-nuclear mutant version of the tiny lizard, with a toxic golden variant) will have their pelt as an item on their corpse. They can be redeemed for cash from some buyers. There is also the radscorpions in Fallout and Fallout 2, which drop their tails that can then be sold to certain vendors (it is used to make antidotes). Fallout 1 and 2 were actually pretty good at this. Enemies were placed on the map with one or two weapons and a certain amount of ammo (which they are very willing to use) and perhaps some chems. If they run out of it (and you're still alive), they can't use it anymore, unlike Fallout 3's Bottomless Magazines. If they don't, you can loot what's left of it. Armor is usually destroyed in the process.

Money Spider / int_8ee238c9	comment	Persona Persona 3 has a bizarre variant on this. You do get money from running around dungeons killing things, but not from the monsters themselves. Instead, you get it from either treasure chests in the twisted, ever-changing, extra-dimensional random dungeon, or you pull it from some inner part of your mind if you pick the right randomly shuffled card at the end of some battles. Since all of this money is magically spawned from nowhere, and you buy all your weapons and armor under the table from a police officer, one wonders how come your character is never busted for counterfeiting. And then there's the supernatural, extradimensional, metaphysical, quite possibly artificial Elizabeth pouring over 1 million yen in a fountain because she heard it's customary to drop coins in them. She probably got all that money from gouging previous adventures on Compendium buybacks, because she can also give you hefty monetary rewards for getting assorted debris from battles. Persona 4 goes with the "Sell the crap you get from killing Shadows to the main store so you can get bigger and better equipment" approach. It's also played straight. Shadows drop money in addition to Shop Fodder. Potentially handwaved in that shadows are the remnants of shadow-selves who killed their creators, and thus have their creators' possessions with them. Persona 5 has all enemies drop money and many also drop Vendor Fodder items as well. This is actually a bit of Fridge Brilliance since the Cognative World you fight them in is based on humanity's subconscious beliefs, and "enemies drop money after you defeat them" is definitly something that exists in the collective subconsciousness of humanity by this point.

Money Spider / int_9d34190a	comment	The Elder Scrolls: Averted in general throughout the series. Most creatures drop bits of Shop Fodder or Organ Drop-style alchemical ingredients which you'll need to sell to earn money. Rarely, you may find a wolf, bear, or dragon with some coins, jewelry, or gems. One can presume that these were ingested when the creature in question ate the person carrying them... In Morrowind, creatures typically drop alchemical ingredients, most of which are cheap not worth carrying them to sell. However, some are rather valuable (such as Cliff Racer plumes and Shalk resin), and, rarely, some (such as Dreugh wax and Daedra hearts) can be sold for up to 200 gold. Further, if you have a high-level Alchemy skill, you can convert the cheaper items into potions that can be sold for many times what the items themselves are worth. In Oblivion, monsters rarely have gold, although many will yield an appropriate Alchemical component. Creatures have entirely understandable treasure on them. Strangely, looting the skin of a wolf or a bear leaves an entirely intact wolf/bear lying on the ground, despite what it should be missing. Skyrim: Most creatures have sensible drops like alchemical ingredients, but occasionally wild animals have rare gems or gold. That said, this is a relatively rare occurrence, so it's easy to justify as this particular wolf just having happened to snack on some guy and accidentally ingest treasure. If you're lucky enough you can, inexplicably, find two flawless rubies in the goat that lives in Falkreath. Meaning a goat could be richer than most NPCs in the game. Most dragons you fight drop various pieces of armor and other such treasures, including gold, which one can reasonably assume belonged to the people they've eaten. This is played up in the first dragon you fight, where he snatches up a guard as part of a cutscene, and you can later loot said guard's armor after killing the dragon. Played straight in Blades, where even small animals can drop not only gold, but alchemical ingredients you wouldn't expect to find on them and bulky construction materials.

Naturally, there are a lot of them scattered around when a robotic enemy is defeated, but paradoxically organic monsters drop them too. However, since bolts are so ubiquitous, damn near everything gives up bolts when destroyed, even the scenery...

Money Spider / int_9f89a5f0	comment	In PokÃ©mon, winning in random encounters will yield nothing more than experience. Money is received from other trainers (who would logically be carrying money). The amount of money won also differs based on the type of trainer. Swimmers and Bug Catchers reward little, as they don't carry much money. Gamblers, League officials, and elite trainers are loaded. Also works in reverse: You lose half your money when you lose (prior to FireRed & LeafGreen and in Emerald) or an amount of money based on the amount of Gym Badges you have multiplied by the level of your highest Pokemon (FireRed & LeafGreen and all games starting with Diamond & Pearl). A certain item, the Amulet Coin, when equipped to a participating member of your party, will double the reward you get from an opposing Trainer.However, one move (Pay Day) actually does yield money, even in random wild encounters. It's seldom used seriously, though, as the money gained is small and the attack itself is weak... The amount gained from Pay Day is equal to 2XY, with "X" being equal to the number of times the move was used, and "Y" equal to the user's level. With an Amulet Coin and a lot of patience, you can get (at least) 1000P per battle. Of course, the experience will be useless by that point (levels cap at 100), and holding the Amulet Coin means you can't steal items when using moves like Thief or Covet. There is a way around that, though complicated for the weak payout. Simply give the Amulet Coin to another Mon and switch them out for a round. Its effect on the battle remains. Plus the added benefit that it delays the leveling of the mon using Pay Day, by halving the XP with the monster subbed in.

There are a few extra tough monsters in the game that you can also loot a body part as a trophy from, then take to a certain NPC in the city to claim a reward for killing it. The Witcher 3 averts it even harder; not only do enemies only drop relevant items, but when you do find money it's often in useless local currencies from countries that no longer exist due to the war, and has to be exchanged at a bank to be useful.

The only enemies who drop meaningful amounts of money are temporary enemies who disappear when you beat a boss. As such income is pretty rare, making the acquisition of either weapons, armor and healing items exceedingly difficult.

There's also a rare chance to have a golden version of the Lootbug to appear and killing it has it drop a ton of gold. There's also the Crassus Detonator, which is a gold version of the Bulk Detonator. Killing it causes a massive explosion as usual, but the crater it leaves behind is converted into gold. Missions can also have the "Golden Bugs" modifier which has every enemy drop a piece of gold ore upon death, even bosses.

Early in the game, the Bard kills a wolf and finds a vast hoard of treasure, much to the surprise and consternation of the narrator. The narrator decides that there will be no more random gems or treasure chests dropping of killed animals. The main character is upset about this but the enemy will still drop various loot instantly changed into money when you pick it up. These drops are very tongue-in-cheek in their nature; for example, enemy druids will drop miniature souvenir copies of Stonehenge, wolves can drop little red capes and hoods, and goblin-type enemies, called Trow, drop, among other things, leather pants. Dropping Trow indeed.

Money Spider / int_c0d295c4	comment	Team Fortress 2 does this through the ambiguous state of ammo; when a player dies, they drop an ammo box that refills the ammo of anyone who picks it up. This works regardless of whether they're using a shotgun, pistol, rocket launcher, flamethrower, minigun, sniper rifle, bow & arrows, or anything else. Note that this also extends in a more complex fashion to the Spy and Engineer; picking up those dropped ammo boxes will give an additional reward of recharging your invisibility watch or giving more building currency (metal) to the respective classes. Prior to the Gun Mettle update, dropped weapons served as ammo packs instead. This included melee weapons, which can possibly be things like glass bottles, wooden baseball bats, fish, and icicles. In the Mann vs. Machine mode, enemy robots drop stacks of dollar bills when destroyed, because the money is their power source. Mann Co isn't actually paying the mercs to defend their buildings, their "pay" is said robot-dropped cash. Surprisingly Realistic Outcome a year after the robot war. Gray Mann, the inventor of the robots, finds himself almost completely bankrupt. Even his own robots suggest he build a new type of robot that runs on a different power source, which only elicits a Death Glare from him.

Money Spider / int_c433d063	comment	Final Fantasy Monsters in Final Fantasy VIII don't drop money at all; instead, the heroes get a regular paycheck. However, since your salary will rise or fall depending on how many enemies you've killed since your last check (among other, lesser factors), you'll still want to kill plenty of monsters to keep your funds up. In addition, many monsters drop valuable items, such as bones or teeth, that can either be refined into magic or useful items, or sold for extra gil. Final Fantasy XII's enemies don't drop gil, unless they're the humanoid kind who you'd expect to be carrying money around. However, they do drop loot — valuable hides, minerals, and so forth, which can be sold at shops for actual gil. The looting system is strange, as it allows you to steal skin and skulls from enemies while they are still alive, and then have the same loot from a drop or poach. In Final Fantasy XIII, you cannot acquire money from enemies. Instead, you acquire items based on the enemy type, and how strong it is. Some of these items can be sold for quite a lot of money, though. Getting these items is completely random, and most of the valuable resources cannot be acquired until very late in the game, meaning that you'll be going through most of the game with nothing more than a handful of pocket change. The sequel goes back to the standard use of the trope, while simultaneously doing away with most need for money in the first place.

Privateer 2: The Darkening used a similar mechanism, though with bounties so low they didn't compensate for the endless waves of pirates that were a pain in the neck to avoid.

Money Spider / int_d4f68ddc	comment	While Spiderweb's Exile/Avernum games (which pretty much all take place in a rather austere setting) are generally pretty good about relevant loot, the games go even further by noting that the nominal "gold" number referred to by merchants and the games' UI isn't really all gold, but instead mostly assorted rare commodities. However, processed metals are pretty damn rare in Avernum. You could make coins out of them. These games were also nice in that enemies are defined with items when they are spawned, will use the items they're holding, and on death will drop the items they're using. If a goblin spawns with a sword, he will use the sword to attack you, then when you kill it, there will be a sword lying on the ground in a puddle of goblin goo. Moreover, monsters will supposedly actually pick up and use items that they see lying on the ground. Exceptions are made for certain monster classes such as slimes, which are incapable of using or picking up items, but can still spawn with items and drop them when they die, like any other game.

Although finding diamonds on ghouls may seems a little odd, it's actually wordbuilding: Baldur's Gate is based on the old rules for Dungeons & Dragons. In said rules, in order to resurrect a corpse, part of the spell required that you replace the dead person's eyes with gems of a certain value. Later editions of the game had it such that the gems were consumed in the spell's casting. Icewind Dale hung a lampshade on this trope in its second installment.

The game uses ancient gold coins as its currency that're accepted by traders in the local Hidden Elf Village and the modern-day outposts alike, with the former knowing it as their legal tender and the latter acknowledging its material value. These coins can only be looted from human enemies, even modern mercenaries who probably either stole it from the locals or were paid with it. Firearms ammunition only drops from the relatively rare Trinity mooks whereas the bow-wielding locals only drop arrows. Animals only ever drop furs or feathers that can be used for crafting or sold for a decent amount of cash.

Money Spider / int_f120845f	comment	Spoofyfied in the MMORPG Kingdom of Loathing, where the unit of currency is meat, and things like gold and jewels are useless, except as Shop Fodder; thus, converting a giant rat into a giant rat carcass makes a twisted kind of financial sense. Some characters not made of meat (e.g. the robotic MagiMechTech MechaMech) drop no meat in a zone with otherwise high meat drops. Some thematically rich monsters (e.g. the Wealthy Pirate) drop more meat than other monsters in the same zone, and hippies of all stripes (except the Business Hippy) drop no meat. But at that same time, they fall for this trope in an even more nonsensical way; pretty much everything drops meat, so while it makes sense for animals and other creatures to drop meat, some things have no reason to have meat, like the possessed vegetables.Ghost miners don't drop any meat. Nor do other ghosts, skeletons, the El Vibrato mechanical constructs, paper towelgeists, any of the nightstands in Lord Spookyraven's bedroom (though some do have wallets and coin purses), the constellations, and all elementals except those obviously based on meat... the possessed cans of tomatoes and asparagus do, but far more often than not, monsters not made of meat (and hippies) don't drop meat, unless they have some thematic reason to carry it. Size also matters. Rotund ducks drop more meat than the other types of duck, and the most efficient place to farm for meat is The Castle In The Clouds In The Sky, which is inhabited by giants.

Then again, in the PS2 games, you typically find better items in the field or at synthesis shops anyway. 358/2 Days takes this to the absurd lengths of making it very easy to rack up hundreds of thousands of munny, while the most expensive items cost about 20,000, and you have no need for more than one.

Heroes wandering the streets of Paragon City will frequently come across villains randomly attacking ordinary citizens, who when rescued will come up to thank you - and you promptly gain a small amount of Influence. Villains receive Infamy as their form of Influence. However, Villains don't receive any extra infamy from citizens if they beat up the other Villain who was harassing the citizen. And Praetorians gather Information as their currency, as their world is such that you never truly know who is your friend and who is your enemy.

Money Spider / int_fae04580	comment	Stargunner has green gems that can be collected by the player to add up to the total credit balance by a small amount in order to be used at the shop featured just before the start of a level. These gems can be obtained by destroying the Mooks and certain crates that appear on the screen. There are also two specific powerups that increase the total credit count by a significant amount but they appear randomly when you destroy a certain target. The gems can also be collected without flying into them by means of a special weapon purchasable from the shop that sends in a drone to fly in and collect them to instantaneously add to your credit count without the danger of getting hit by the many obstacles that stand in your path.

Money Spider / int_fc0ad3a5	comment	In the MMORPG Tabula Rasa you get credits for every enemy you kill but you don't pick them up- you're automatically credited to your account as a bounty by high command (since you're part of a giant army credits aren't strictly speaking a currency, they're an equipment requisition resource). Additionally, most enemies drop Shop Fodder which up until recently were only good to be "sold" for more credits, although a lot of them can now be broken down for crafting resource.
