    I can and have argued my case damn well. Read above. Rendered retainers brings several issues with MW that literally cannot be fixed, because it's a bad design. Your retorts were personal anecdotes that amount to nothing more than "that's just, like, your opinion, man" with one or two half baked solutions. Crashing will never be as good as a counter/text based system because it's unscalable and there's too much overhead involved in having to render the NPCs. Searching is barely passable, and will still never be as good or as fast as a counter/text based system, because you still have to run back to the search counter after you make your purchase. Maybe if you had put in more effort and thoughts into your posts, I'd have dignified you with better responses.

    And for the record, I wasn't even addressing you when I quoted you.

    You don't have to address me to insult me. Also none of your posts have a solution other than "scrap it".

    Please explain to me how scrapping the physical aspect of a retainer is scrapping the whole system. What I'm asking for would still let you browse retainers, but from a menu interface and not by dragging your character through a dungeon full of zombies.

    I'll repost what I said earlier. This is what I want.

    You can ignore me if you want, but I'm trying to look at it objectively. I want the people that like owning little shops to be happy and the people that want a quick buy to be happy and I think Eldaena's idea does that.

    The entire game is an overhead of rendered graphics. The thing is, one side sees the MW as an inconvenient necessity to be gotten through as quickly as possible, and the other sees it as a possible interaction that could be very fun and immersive part of the game. Opinions will differ, that doesn't make anyone wrong.
