A consern about space efficieny since stormblood is not getting enough space increase

Do me a favor and google "Neverwinter inventory issues." I think you'll find that enlightening.

Really I shouldn't have to find every example of them doing things like binding some items to you but then having an unbound version and they don't stack (just to tell a minor example). Inventory isnoticeably worse in that game and far more expensive to fix, it's really that simple.

I noticed that Neverwinter Online has tabs within bags that allow for storage of crafting items and a separate tab for quest items within the inventory.

Sorry, not seeing it. Even if we assume FFXIV is better with inventory then neverwinter, you are comparing a sub based game to a free to play one. If you where to buy max inventory in that game (that last forever), you buy 6 month sub +6 retainers here, that is ridiculous.

I don't disagree with this logic, I was just suggesting that FFXIV has a much higher start - and before the glamour log in WoW it was less impressive difference (they still had more because of Alts but you did have to log in and out). With the glamour log of course the difference is MASSIVE, if you count every slot in the log as a slot saved then its like 450 vs 5,000+ lol. And as you said for a single character you need less space (in WoW), it feels even larger and it is already larger.

When you talk about start, you mean when you start a character and how much space you get right? (kinda can have a different meaning without the first post, so want to make sure) What I was trying to explain, even though FFXIV does have a higher start, you are basically comparing infinity vs infinity, and that is what I was trying to get at. In wow you start out with less, but you are bombarded with much less items. So room wise both have infinity because it is hard to fill unless you are going out of your way to try (though easier to do this in wow when you got your basic bag and hording faded name junk) If a new person does not access the AH/market board yet, in FFXIV the person may not know what is valuable, where wow it tells you, faded name means NPC it, simple.

So that is what I was trying to get across, that FFXIV does not exactly get praise for that either, when you look at the full picture. I know I am getting a lot of support for this thread, but I am just explaining in more detail why this needs to be changed and give Devs more to think about on this issue and why it is so bad.

And that game is free-to-play according to this link. Also, it still doesn't change nor affect the fact that FFXIV have an inventory issue, or at least what a couple of us here believe and explained.

Let me put it to you this way, if you saw a man get knocked over by a car and broke a leg, are you going to show the unlucky fellow some sympathy or will you walk over and tell him that you saw another man got run over by another car some days back and broke both legs? Cause what you are doing right now is pretty similar.

Agreed. being less worse does not make it good, lol (assuming ffxiv is less worse and currently I am in disagreement with that too.) as you said it is f2p, so even with all the costs we where told about, that is cheaper then 6 month sub here+6 retainers.
