Better Materia System

[Hiruke]

They've already stated what changes they plan to make for the materia system, which I feel are sufficient to change it from "the most terrible system in the game" to "something I can live with". The chances of them drastically altering a system they added AFTER Yoshida took over, and which required them to modify the save structure for items... Don't get your hopes up that that would even happen. Because it won't.

You dont know what they wont or will do but I agree the chances are limited.

However I feel that the limited aspects of the currently designed materia system are worth redesigning, it has limited itself into a frustrating and boring materia choices. T

Also I agree that increase % will be welcomed but now instead of double melds being good enough people will make triple and qudra melds as good enough (they just moved the standard, and therefore the cost of materia overall (UP)).

So you could argue the change is going to be more annoying if what I suspect will happen happens (since double is easy people will do triple and qudra as standard but when triple and qudras break they are even more disheartening.
