Materia System

[Duelle]

And how is appealing to the FFVI fans any different?

It's a feeble attempt to appeal to a demographic that would buy a bag with dog poo inside it if it had FFVII and Cloud's face stapled on it.

However! If this system they're putting into XIV creates nothing more then little slottable stat boosts, then yes, they might as well call it the Magicite system, and in fact it would be more appropriate. Here's hoping, however, that it's not quite as simple as that.

Reading Bay's post, it sounds more like Lineage II's enchant system with a timesink of "attachment points" tossed in. The thing about stacking materia at the very bottom is a very big cause of concern, too.
