Question about Triple Triad and the cards

[gothikka]

I just have one small question about Triple Triad and wonder...

Will the cards take up space in your inventory? Or has the devs prepared a special inventory just for the cards? Because if they do take space in your inventory, it is going to be rather hard to get 'em all, especially once future patches come out and they start increasing the total number of unique cards in the game, as more and more types of enemies, NPCs, important characters, primals, raid bosses, and the like are added to the game.

If they do make Triple Triad have it's own inventory, I'm kinda assuming it would work like minions and mounts, with 2 exceptions. The cards probably will be able to be taken away from you (as in you lose a game and said card is taken from you) Secondly, if you can have more than 1 of each card, I'm assuming, it might be "hard capped" as in once you reach the max you can have for that same card, that's it, you can only have that 1 stack of, say, bomb cards.

Actually, I do have 1 more question. I wonder if the cards will be tradeable to other players, aside from losing them to other players lol.

I'd assume we'd get a separate window similar to Minions, Mounts and PvP.

I think we will have the same rules like FF8. Lose/win a card is okay for me. (But I'm scare of the rule "Win all" in FF8)

[Kaelah]

Yeah I'd guess we get a separate window as Recaldy says. Be pretty silly not to! Can't believe how hyped I am about Triple Triad. Gaaaah I needs it nau.

Actually the "win all" rule from FF8 would make things a bit more interesting combine that with random/open/same/same plus/combo

In the trailer, I also noticed that the cards shown had a single star on it. I wonder if instead of categories, if the cards will, perhaps, have star levels instead, or perhaps a mix of categories and star level.

Unless you win, the "Win All" will be interesting. I also hate Random lol.

And yeah, I think those star may resemble card level categories, instead of Level 1, 2, 3, etc.

p/s: At least with this, I won't feel bored like these days ingame I can't wait to go challenge everyone in Eorzea.

Even the Queen of Cards?

I want a win/trade cards mechanic, but I definitely want a log of some sort to show what cards you've had in your collection already, even if you've lost them...and some sort of achievement for collecting x unique cards, maybe with a mini-Setzer minion or something. If there's no log, some people will be afraid to USE their good cards, just in case they lose them, and that's just no fun for anyone.

Also, if there are cards that drop from bosses, they ought to be tradeable but unique; how annoying would it be to go up against someone using an entire hand of Titan?

Even the Queen of Cards?

I don't know about you, but I plan to become the Queen of cards.

Oho, well played.

Actually, there could be a game rule, for certain areas, or something called "Unique"
I hope, like in FF8, that different regions, or such will have different game rules, or even gold saucer itself. As for gold saucer, they could make it where the rules would change on a daily basis or something like that.
