    Ah, I see. Makes more sense. The thing is, I think most people on this thread are in agreement with you to an extent. Most of us are trying to avoid paying for retainers (see my method of how I'm doing it above if you haven't already) and though some of us may understand why SE's charging for what is essentially server space, it's safe to say it's apparent to us all that the minimal amount of inventory (retainers and all) that we're supplied "naturally" is not sufficient to actually play the game (let alone craft). It feels like a scam, it's probably a scam, and as much as we want SE to make profit to make better content/games (plus feed their families), we don't want to be ripped off in the process.

    Personally (and I can't believe I'm saying this...), I don't mind them charging for extra retainers - as long as it's extra retainers. Just two retainers, with as many mats, glamours, and Jobs (read: gear-sets) as there are in this game? That's obviously not enough. So, yes, I agree...it's almost assuredly intentional to force us into paying extra.

    Just one more free retainer...I think it'd be feasible for them to give us that. I do not intend to ever pay for an additional retainer, (sorry SE, not gonna happen) and I hope people put enough pressure on SE to help us out in this. I'm glad FFXIV is a success, I intend to play for a long time to come, but...this is one of the things that has to change.

    1 for Heavensward and 1 more for each expansion after that. We pay enough to buy the damn thing, it should come with a 1 slot increase in free retainers. Expaneions are the biggest source of new items, and we need somewhere to put it all. Make this a feature and people can at least get by on space.


    That and a few other minor inv tweaks like an intangible glamour collection, tackle box, etc.

    Agreed. 100%.

    See Callback? Knew we could get along...

    Also, this all needs to happen. I know people are going to go "but the server space!", but that's why he said intangible...saves on actual memory space usage.
