Mobile Phone Companion App

The game gives you 980 inventory slots for free.

Plus 200 glamour item slots, and space for furniture = to the house size you own. 300 for me, and 30 outdoor spots. So I have 1510 inventory slots with the base subscription. What game gives you that much inventory space?

Even if you go off just character inventory its 630 inventory slots. with armory chest, character inventory, and saddlebag.

My Sub is 72.99 per 6 Months, because I have 2 extra retainers so I can have the 3 gatherers and a battle class. I could be at 2 retainers and have no inventory issues.

In spite of it not being the usual topic matter....you just had to start yet an another bloody thread.

Sigh.

If we're going to be including things that save inventory slots (house furnishing, glamour dresser), then WoW would have:

• 136 inventory slots (using 30 slot bags)
• 240 bank slots (using 30 slot bags)
• 98 material bank slots
• 160 void storage slots.

Then there's the stuff that used to go into the inventory, but were moved to collections

• 448 toys (flavour items, like ones that turn you into a different race for a short time)
• 83 heirloom items (gear that scales with level)
• 6517 gear/weapon appearances (amount varying based on class)

For a total of 7682.

so why are we paying for inventory space again?

Because the idea of paying for more inventory space via the retainers has been a thing since the development and first inception of the Mogstation, but, it's easier to just focus on a really bad idea and design for a mobile app and complain about that instead when this isn't the first time things like this have happened. Although, people tend to like to ignore that paying for more retainers existed long before the mobile app did sometimes.

I'm quite surprised how much information people seem to have about the app without it being out yet or with any of the pricing and details actually confirmed.

So far people have been discussing what SE has given us as details so I don't really understand where this is coming from. The app doesn't need to be out in order for us to discuss what SE has already announced as official details.

To be fair the developers haven't exactly been known to make processes that shrink inventory bloat. Recipes that take 6 ingredients. Tons of different currencies that are inventory items, even AFTER the currency tab was added. Lots of items that can't be placed in the armoire (pretty much anything from mog station or special events).

After 5 years that limited inventory space, while seeming infinite at the start, gets small REALLY quick.

As has been said before, this is a pretty bad deal for the extra inventory space. Two extra retainers is cheaper than the 70 extra chocobo bag slots. MB access is in game. About the only thing the premium app does is allow you to manage retainer inventory better, something that should have absolutely been in game.

I dont really horde mats, I just gather as needed, much easier on the inventory. And they recently updated the armoire to take non cash shop event items, like the promotion stuff from the fanfests and the maid/butler outfits and the items associated with those events.

It's not hard to put the pieces of the puzzle together. We know a lot about it already and it's been outright stated that the feature's unique currency will be used for other things in the future. That suggests that this has been in the works for a while and that no feedback will be taken into account that's negative. It hasn't even been officially addressed despite being a hot topic on this forum since the original announcement.
