Yoshi-P on Character Growth

[Clover_Blake]

People are already bored, they have been complaining about this for ages.

What people? You and some others like you? I for one love the current system. It lets players obtain good equipment by working everyday, no RNG involved; everyone's efforts are rewarded. It also gives us new goals to work for every few months (and new glamour possibilities). And last but not least, it's kind to newbies and alts, since those don't have to sweat blood in order to catch up with the veterans. So I'm personally very happy with the route Yoshida has taken.

Actually your efforts mean nothing really. I can log in, do expert, log out, come the next day and repeatedly do that just to get the latest tome gear, making doing anything else like materia melding pointless. because the standard stats from that gear is all you need to do anything. Or I could sit around and wait for the hunt ls to go off and kill them while watching netflix and meet my daily cap quickly. Strongest gear now with perfect melds? Next patch you'll just be standard, nice job on that raid clear btw, shame your gear is now 10ilvls lower than the new tome gear

It all really makes sense to just to sub when a new patch drops. :/

everyone can play like they want , no one is forcing u to stay subbed :P
also i prefer new gear every 3 months, then running around in the same gear for 1 year ^^
but guess tastes are different :P
