That each city also had something different happen as starting mission also was lovely. The crafting idea was nice but confusing. Gathering was confusing and you almost needed a degree in applied sciences for each gathering job. The stress 1.0 put on Computers also was more than crazy.
1.22 was good balance of the game. One main issues was removing so many items from crafting system and make everything dated. That & removing +2 & +3 materials and gear. Materia system was really good, kept market afloat. ARR need patches like these ones, game changing.
