Not really. Wild Star does a lot better at its inventory system. Even WoW handles better. The inventory system must meet the needs of the player, and in FFXIV:ARR we have vanity items, crafting and gathering supplies, various consumables, and some extraneous currency that shouldn't be taking up inventory space at all. Running multiple jobs with a vanity system greatly increases the need for inventory space, along with the high requirements for crafters. I had to abandon my original main simply because running almost every job in the game made the inventory system unmanageable.Quote:

Really tired of the inventory excuses.

Not to mention, we still don't have a loot filter even. I get useless junk drops so often that I have to dedicate inventory slots to them because if I delete them, they'll just be right back soon. Bone chips come to mind.

My inventory is always troubled with space problems and all four of my retainers are packed to the brim. I know it's my fault for hoarding but please toss me a bone here SE!

Or you can play GW2 and just shake your head at the starter bank/bag space. >< -

350 inventory slots between two retainers is really more than I need if I would start cleaning up my inventories. That's not counting inventory or armoury chest. -
08-14-2015, 01:38 AMXeriusIf you want to be a competitive crafter then you need to have all DoL/DoH to 60. You just can't compete with someone on the MB who can get all of their mats for free.Quote:

Hording is an active choice to pick up an item and throw it in your inventory space. Players do not make a choice whether they pick up a bone chip or not. The bone chip just chooses to plop in a comfy spot in your inventory whether you like it or not.Quote:

SE just give people a free retainer if they've purchased heavensward. It may not be a permanent solution but at least it will help.
