Crafting is fun!

[Silverbane]

How many players can afford to buy favor mats continually at their current prices when the final products themselves don't sell? You're delusional if you think the average player can "just buy mats from other people."

I didn't say anything such thing. Someone said "a crafter can only craft two or three items a week." That's incorrect, and you know it.

I craft 2-3 items per week and that's it. I spend 3 hours gathering just to craft for 20 minutes. If you find that enjoyable, then that's great for you. I and many others don't.

Then why are you doing it?

If you expected crafting to be a license to print gil, and are unhappy because it did not turn out that way, I have no sympathy for you. The easy mega-gil are gone, at least until 3.1, and good riddance.

It's a game, not a job, you should play it because it's fun. So craft because you enjoy crafting, or don't bother.
