    think about it long run (if you manage to stay with this game for that long, everyone moves on eventually)...have fun sorting through 500+ pages of items.

    Please correct me if I am mistaken as I may be reading wrong, but you're saying to give up before even trying to find a solution? Make no attempts because PS3 has some limitations?

    I'm sure there's a solution that would benefit all. Perhaps a search field akin to the auction board?

    the reason why our inventory is split into tabs is because of the ps3 hardware limitation, ps3 can't even set focus target because of it (there is quite a list of things they had to tweak so the 256mb vram could handle it). ps4 might be able to handle something like that though.

    and search would help finding stuff, but over all wouldn't help too much either, it would still look impractical and cluttery to the UI. i like the idea for it, but it kinda promotes hoarding as well (not that we don't have that already).

    i think it would be more beneficial to have a more advanced sorting system. so you could find what you need, and keep it organized.
