However there seems to be a confusion between the concepts of necessity and want. Gear swapping in any form is not a necessity that, in its absence, makes XIV (or any other MMO for that matter) unplayable.

It is also not some unimportant fluff that people can choose to ignore if they want to. We're not talking bunny girls here. We're talking integral game mechanics that will alter the game significantly. When someone can come up with a reason that provides a logical and tangible benefit to the game as a whole, as opposed to just personal benefits, I'm sure they will reconsider it.

I've yet to see that, however, and sincerely doubt I ever will.

Even if someone did come up with a brilliant reason you then still have to address all the negatives that come with allowing your players to min/max and meta-game your content like that.

I wouldn't hold my breath. Just saying...
I love you Wynn, you bastard. Why did you leave me?!?!

But yeah no, you're totally helping your cause by insulting people who don't feel the need to parse everything and crunch numbers 24/7 to enjoy the game.

Do go on. =)
