    Me? I like there being a little weight to my decisions and I like when they aren't made wholly inconsequential by arbitrarily getting to go back on them whenever - even if those consequences are on me, or I'm not wholly able to foresee them.

    I'll not throw a fit if re-assignment for Grand Companies is implemented, I guess.. but frankly I'm glad it's not there and my vote will always be against the option. Especially given all the warnings. Now, if the change were possible at some significant penalty or other..

    Oh and just on a point of interest - My primary Discipline is Lancer, I'm with the Twin Adder.

    Not that some means of dealing with the other Grand Companies wouldn't be nice.. Jennestia's point above, for instance. Still, they've said they're thinking about that idea anyhow, haven't they?

    That's one of the problems. The warning is completely meaningless because no one knows what they're going to implement in the future, and if you don't join a GC now, you can't do certain content.

    They already said GC will be pretty much uniform (and to be fair, even outside of a random crafting leg piece in one GC, there are ZERO benefits to being in one over the other currently and from the road on.) No one knows what they'll implement in the future, but all GC are the same now, that won't suddenly change at one point, if it does change it'll be like conquest from FFXI (which they already said it won't be given how they're introducing Free Companies), while one nation may do better than another it doesn't realistically change anything about YOUR gameplay.

    If anything, FREE COMPANIES (Player companies) will be the bad thing, not the story related ones, ESPECIALLY considering how Yoshida stated only one company per server can have a Primal summon pact for example, that type of scenario is what you should be worried about, not whether or not you get crafting pants from one GC or another.

    The items are not the point here!

    It's the design choice to segemnt players for no reason. If we already did quests for the other 2 companies, why should be be banned from helping out now that were more important?

    I don't care about the items, I already said that now being a mroe seasoned player with a level 50 job, and all others at 30+ the items to me are useless, as they are to many many players. The point I'm trying to get at is if i want seals now, I have to solo leves. And if my friend wants seals he has to solo leves. Why can't we both do a group designed quest together, and reap the benefits together? y aknow, playing an MMO with other people? Who would hav ethought this online game was meant for playing with other people!?
