Inventory issues still exist. Why keep adding gear to the game and not room? Glam log

[Magic-Mal]

do you play every job in the game tho , that sounds easy to do if you play one or two jobs

BRD and MCH at lv70(They have separate armor too), SMN at 70, BTN and MIN at 70, Leveling DRK, AST, WHM, and DRG. I'm fine

They do not, and loadstone is proof of it. Not even a crafter and maybe a casual gather.

Sorry but Lodestone isn't proof of anything. All uneeded furniture is held on an alt because they won't be used. You do not need stacks of Iron Ore, Copper Ore, or Mythril Ore. Those things can be easily gathered. You don't need stacks of sand and stacks of nuggets made from the sand, you just need the stack of nuggets. Again it's management. There's a difference from what you need to what you want.

Also don't tell me what I am or not. You have no idea ehst my inventory looks like.

Then get those gloves again.
It's very easy to just stop hoarding gear.

Twenty runs of Antitower later...

Not really a fan of the idea of condensing/replacing all "types" of crafting material into universal mats. It's a gaming convention that you have different materials to make different things, just like in real life. Yes at the end of the day it's just code and letters and maybe a different picture but if every recipe used the same 20-30 items forever my god that'd be boring.

Glamour log would be nice just as a UX improvement that would also have inventory space improvements as a result.

That said, even if you play all DoW/DoM/DoH/DoL, your armory alone easily has enough space for all current gear, and your glamour can be kept within a few pages on one retainer, so I'm not sure how anyone would need more than TWO retainers (one for mats, one for glamour).

Do you really NEED to keep that one sprig of Belladonna that you got 4 years ago? Liquidate materials you don't think you'll be needing any time soon and buy them again when you need them. Using the MB is not the end of the world. It's highly likely that 1/4 of the things you're hoarding you can purchase for less than 50 gil in the future.

You do not glam/ play enough jobs/ craft enough/ gather enough to say there is no inventory issues. You just assume what I hold onto because you do not know crafting. You can tell what someone has done with by the way they speak, I suspected you did not do much before going to loadstone, and you just confirmed that in this post.

/wave gold ingots and raz sand. SE keeps reusing them, they gone up and down crazy prices in 2.0 to now. Before 4.1, raz sands dip under 100 gil, after 4.1 people bought them for 15-20k EACH along with gold ingots topping 50k

People that say there is no inventory issues clearly do not know crafting.

[Valkyrie_Lenneth]

That sounds more like a supply and demand thing, not inventory issues.

"Yoshida: However, we are planning to make big adjustment/changes to glamour, and considering features such as recalling the appearance from equipment you previously owned." - live letter from couple months ago.

Fortunately there is hope for a glamour log.

Anyone else glamour their squadron and notice the interface is unexpectedly nice? I have a sneaking suspicion that a variation of it may be implemented for players at some point.

Okay whatever you say lol. You keep looking at lodestone to judge how I play the game and what my inventory looks like.

Although I cant help but wonder what uses up all of your 1,400 retainer slots, 140 inventory slots, 520 armor slots, and 160 selling slots(if you use those to save).

Do you store mats in your mail too?

[Shougun]

Glamour log would be so helpful.. Thousands of slots saved and it is an item log in essence as well which is neat, so I can check off items I've earned. WoW's literally saves thousands of slots in it alone, something that takes up no inventory space. (GW/WS also have this).

[FaileExperiment]

Which ones are we talking here? The primal ones, and special FATE ones, don't, but everything else does, doesn't it?

Anything that can be given to an npc in exchange for something else is a currency, unless we're talking quest items or things like armor exchanges/upgrades. This includes things consumed as part of game system process, like glamouring, repairing and melding. Besides the things you mentioned, there's a ton of currencies that have yet to be added:
glamour prisms
raid tokens (gears, shafts, coins and like)
centurio books of all types
items like cracked clusters
those things you use for repair and materia melding
materia themselves
atheryte tickets
those amber things
crafted items that serve no purpose but to be turned into a vendor also count

Some of these things admittedly do seem silly to put in the currency tab, esp if they have limited use. But in those cases, I submit that it would have been better to simply have never created the need for those items to begin with. We never needed 5 grades of 8 types of glamour prisms. And even though SE walked that back eventually, they should have never done it in the first place and they still haven't gone far enough (it should have been reduced to a single consumable, or just a plain gil cost). And they continue this mentality instead of learning from it. Look at how many currencies were just added with the latest patch, when none of them really need to exist.

If we had unlimited inventory space that's one thing. But with the game inventory so limited, creating a million reasons to fill it up is just self-defeating.
