I see a lot of people getting really angry over a game where you lose cards to other players. I mean, with Triple Triad for example, you save before the match and if you lose a character card *Power Button* or you have a chance to win it back.

If that happens in XIV it would be no different, worse actually, than losing in PvP combat. So I can understand why Yoshida is wary of what he puts in.

That said, I think it's a killer idea. Though their needs to be another use to just playing and trading. If we could get a system to turn them into rewards as he stated then it could be spectacular.

Honestly, the refine card option still seems to be the most viable. Perhaps a different play style for the game and cards but keep the refine card mechanic.
