[dev1070] Please change name of Dark Matter

[Sorel]

Dear Development Team,

I know that you all are working very hard to improve FFXIV. The adjustments to the repair system in-game is to be commended, at least for the effort.

However the case, the introduction of a new universal repair material called "Dark Matter" is causing many in the community to exhibit some initial hostility to the new adjustments. This is partially due to the fact that the name "Dark Matter" is somewhat of a misleading name. It does not clearly represent the purpose or function of the item itself. A better name would be "Repair Kit", because that is what the item does.

So I humbly ask that the Development Team truly reconsider the name "Dark Matter", and instead use the name "Repair Kit".

shut up jesus .

[Darium]

So instead it will be "Repair Kit"?

How is that any different? Yes it sounds more realistic, but how is "Magic Dark Matter that repairs ALL!!!" different from "Magic Repair Kit that repairs ALL!!!"?

For all intent and purpose, they are both magic goo.

[PrettyPrincess]

Exactly .

I think "Dark Matter" was chosen for it's relation to the FF series, and that Dark Matter serves a large variety of purposes within those games. "Repair Kit" is very bland and offers no connection to a fantasy realm.

That's a good and fair point. I can see how that might be important to some players.
