I love crafting. and find myself doing it farr more than anything else in the game,
its also made me stay here a lot longer than any other MMO i've played, and i'm still engaged with whats going on.


- the materia system is a gamble, which makes it more difficult, if it was skill, you would have a huuuuge player gap, and guess what, people with less time on their hands (casual gamers) will have no hope of playing with others because they had more time to hone their skills

=this would cause casual gamers not to play an already dangerously dead game. with such huge potentials, gambling is the best way to go. after all, Final Fantasy made a company by luck.

why not take a chance and roll the materia dice. it sounds a lot safer than risking your business over it.
