Please, Developers, Please! Put an end to Easy Mode thinking

if you talk to most hardcore crafters in the game you will realize that the majority are not in favor of the crafting changes in general. the main people that are supporting this change is the people that do not like crafting now and will not like crafting after because the mini game itself is the main complaint i hear about and it is not being touched at all.

Many of the "hardcore" crafters I've spoken to admit the main reason they don't like the new changes, is because they won't be able to make as much money or have as big of a monopoly on the economy. They don't care if these changes may make the game better.

i think you must have hit your head too hard. how is hq items that are 100% sure synths and easier to make and get the hq parts made for going to stop making gil? if anything it will increase the amount of gil the crafters are making because people will be buying the same gear over and over due to them breaking it trying to hq the same item. it's pure ignorance than to think the overall amount of gil a crafter will make will not increase.

even after the changes if the price on a item drops from 50k to 40k and you sell 20 of them instead of 4-5 of them you make massively more gil. that's not counting people paying them to attach materia to that item after it's sold. if your friends are really that far out of touch with reality then there's just no help for them.
