Things that need to change for the better

[MartaDemireux]

I'm sure it has been said but you could impose the cure mp issue on yourself in FFXI haha. Galka Red Mage without major MP+ gear would have maybe 200-250MP when he learned Cure III (I think I'm remembering correctly) and that costs 46MP (though I think I do remember it costing more when the game launched in the states...).

Just remember that they can still change things as they see fit. They're like BigBrother and are watching at all times seeing if people are wiping from just mismanaged MP or legitimate MP issues. The same goes for the rest of the items on the list: they're watching and will change things when they need changing but don't want to hold back on 1.19's release. They'll likely put a couple of people aside and put out a 1.18a to fix any changes that THEY feel need changing (it's their game after all, not ours, we just play it).

Sit back, relax, try to find ways to have fun doing other things if something really bothers you. We're not losing any money yet. The game sells for $15 currently (got two friends to get in game) so it's not a big deal for new players and people like us who bought it when it was $50+ got our run I believe. Most $50+ RPG's don't have a year's worth of content.
