[dev1032] Current Affinity System

[Spuffin]

Then go play another game, since the armory system is the very basic foundation of this game, it's selling point and most advertised feature. It's not going to go away.

It's not a bad thing really. Different games are for different targets. This one, quite obviously, is not for you.

Wow... and that must be why this game is a huger success and why this forum is full of appraisal. This current system can and will easily be abused if it not already is and it must be removed.

There is an incredible amount of grey area with the current system and can easily be exploited.

QFT,

I have to say, I just don't get why ppl are playing a game they hate so much?

You forgot the rather important thing that no matter how many abilities you have. No matter how powerful, you're still limited by stamina and time.

I think an even bigger limitation is AP costs. You simply cannot equip all of these abilities at once.

Probably because they paid $50-$70, loved the series and don't want a piece of crap to ruin the franchise?

Just a guess.

You can keep saying "oh, well if you don't like it leave".. but that is going to have 1 of 2 outcomes. 1) the game is going to change as the developers try to lure people back. or 2) the servers shut down and then no one has a game.

With the abilities I had listed.. at 50 yes you can. Oh and they might raise the level cap.

You seem to have a quite warped idea of game development.

Systems that can be abused can be rebalanced and tweaked. Abuse prevented.

Screaming: "it can be abused! SCRAP IT!" is laughable at best, and would make any game developer roll on the floor cackling.

1. You suffer from psychosis because I never said that. What I said was, if you are not having fun playing a game meant to be fun, don't play it.....we call that sanity.

2. If those things happen, they happen, fear of them is no reason to play a game and NOT have fun. If it's not fun, don't play it. They'll get the idea.

If their sole interest in the game is the "final fantasy" name, I'd say it's a tad too shallow to even be considered.

And paying 50-70$ doesn't give anyone the right to demand having a game especially tailored over their tastes. Try with an investment of 50-70 million. Then maybe SE could be interested

That little quote you made is just a call out... pointing out an obvious that should have been fixed from the start. Then they fix.. atm I don't see any fixes. They say they will but let us see what they do. In the mean time every body has every right to complain... considering they have my $80 and crushed my hopes for having another great FF MMO
