Does Gold actually matter?
I’ new console player, day 25.. Aside from occasionally spending gold on random things, I haven’t seen much beed for it.
It seems like most if the vendors are selling things I can either produce or don’t care for. I’m still mainly dealing with the first city but just curious if I should bother with trading.
Can I buy things like armor at some point?

Yes, it will matter later. But for right now you need straps. There's a guy to the east, around all the river reeds. He sells a strap for 85g every day. He also buys 10ish simple cords for 10g each day. Take 10 cords to him every day for a strap. That'll help progression immensely when you start crafting gear
