For a game that puts so much of its reward space into glamour, what we have just isn't going to cut it and will never cut it. The entire system needs to be reworked and they need to allow us to make as many sets as we want, along with automatically saving every piece of gear that is bound to our character. We also need the new mobile game's dye system, where once you unlock a dye its usable forever which will circumvent a lot of the problems with the new set system they have started to implement in 7.1.

"Muh spaghetti code," no. Enough with the excuses. If OSRS, a tiny MMO by comparison by a niche developer in the UK can afford to hire an entire engine development team that works on the spaghetti code that game has from 2001, there is zero reason Square Enix can't do the same.
This^^^.
I'm so tired of hearing the same excuses every single time. If the code is so problematic, maybe it's time to build a new engine from scratch.
