Very interesting read. I'm really excited about this system.

Indeed. This will definitely increase my playtime. 1.19 is the patch that's going to bring me back into this game full-time.

Also it seems that SE really thought this system through, hopefully it works out without any kinks.

Thumbs down to the new crafting system.

Why? It sounds good to me. If anything this should increase the activity of the economy.

Id prefer them keep the system as is (remove parts if needed) and add the materia system on top.

Ah I see. Perhaps the Devs are thinking that if the materia system turns out to be really popular, then people won't be able to keep up the demand over so many materials. Having the system simplified allows there to be more gear on the market and allow crafters can keep up with the demand with little down time of having make/find certain parts and etc.

Also with 4 game topics in one day, I wonder if 1.19 may be released a bit earlier like mid-September?

I believe it's been confirmed that other players can attach materia for you with out having to trade. Much like the repair items function, hoever the UI hasn't been shown.

Really? I did read this line in the latest post that seems to contradict that unless this is a case of a repair menu as you say but just for tradeable gear. Which would solve the issue I mentioned before with regards to possible future rank caps.

* It is possible to have others attach materia on your behalf, as long as the gear you wish to enhance is tradable.

Also, you just like to complain about anything.
