The new Expanded Inventory View design

[savageink]

I would prefer 4 up like the old view, but 2 up isn't that annoying. they did get rid of the useless slots that couldn't hold anything in the old view on the second tab. What I don't get is why they didn't add a chocobo bags tab to the inventory, instead of making it a completely separate window i have to dig through a menu to get to.

That annoys me too, though on the other hand I'm guessing that since we have to transfer items between the two systems, having them display separately is what lets us have both inventories open at once while we do that.

I would think that even if they had to open it up as a separate window they could still put a chocobag button on the inventory window like the armory one.

Having experimented with it a bit, I've realised that it's not counted as part of the inventory space - you can store a 'unique' item in there and then add a second one to your inventory. (So, another place to stash phoenix downs - and also useful if you want to put some quest reward costume pieces into your glamour dresser but don't want to lose the actual item, as I did for a certain sentimental one. Put the original in the saddlebag, bought and converted a replica.)

Anyway if it's separate enough that the game can't tell you're doubling up on unique items, then I'm not surprised if it's impossible to make it display on the inventory menu tab, as nice and sensible as it would seem.

Also treasure maps.

Personal opinion, I kinda like the new expanded layout. For me, the old layout was just a bit too big. I understand the complaints that it doesn't show everything, for the players that preferred to see everything. But I like the look, and it's still as much as I ever need to see at any one time.

Good reason to just give people the option to decide how they want their inventory displayed rather than deciding for everybody.

No reason to remove the current look, since it's implemented and working. However as long as they stay with the 5x7 grids, making additional look that shows 4 of them at a time shouldn't break it as it is now for those who like it.
