Thread: Any things you don't like in the 3.0 patch notes?

I'm pretty nettled about the extra paid retainers and no way to store the ever-growing inventory from the expansion. Considering there are too many new items to even list them in the patch notes, what are we supposed to do to our already thin-stretched(If you do a lot of crafting, or hold glamour, or just have a lot of classes maxed) inventory spaces? It's not an optional service if it's slowly becoming more and more mandatory.

But otherwise, I actually liked a great deal of the quality of life changes this patch seemed to bring. Honestly it's overwhelmingly positive for me personally, with just only a few neggling shortcomings like the one above.

It's not anything serious that I don't like but the fact that they added Miqo'te children and not Roegadyn children. What? Do we not have kids or something?

That's the only way to initially get DoL/DoH materia. DoW/DoM tier V materia will come from spiritbonding still. I've been hoarding junk TIV materia for months in anticipation of this

But for stuff I hate, no mention of new ranks for GC or chocobos.

I'd expect no-one is getting to 60 without heavensward, period.

If I'm level 50 and doing level 50 dungeons, I expect to get experience from them. There will be a lot more people around helping the new guys than if everyone only enters one of these things once a day.

To be frank, this is a kick in the teeth and almost a game-breaker for me. A deliberate ploy to waste my time.

We have reached the point where the space we have is just not enough.

While I agree that SE handled it badly (I distinctly remember Yoshie-P saying that inventory size is a problem) but I'm sure I will be able to manage my inventory. Thing is, most of the stuff is dead weight. Like stacks of the same item kept by both retainers and the player as well. Almost no player plays more than 4 classes actively, so 4 complete glamour sets is more than enough. 5 if you count wedding dress.

And sure it's annoying to farm crafting materials every time you need it, keeping 3 full stacks of gigantoad skin for months is pointless.
