    How exactly is it content cut? What particular area is being cut? The option for an extra retainer? Hmmm I don't think that can be consider content more of an option to assist a player. Market manipulation? hmmmm free version will have that. Will it be preventing moving forward with any dungeon or main story line? Not that I read.

All it does is give an edge away from console or PC really.

(not that it's hard anyways ) It would be nice if legacy players could get the fee waived, if not just another app like any other that is used as a tool to make money... Not bad SE thx for meeting our demands based on feed wack wanting better access to MB, retainers, space, and options outside of our console or PC. So how is content cut again? I like pictures by the way.

    So far responses I've seen no your not honest with your comments all the time and sometimes omit conversations to make them half truths. Can you please stock pile some of your arguments then with valid claims as in links were information was found? Now I don't want a castle , more like a little tent or bunker. Pls no word twisting and if quoting at least quote properly, quite a few people do it.

    How exactly is it a rip off? What law or commercial law has SE broken? what part of the terms of use have they violated with us the consumer? It's a simple business tool and while it keeps being brought up n o one has really been able to say where.

    I'm trying to give you some credibility by asking of your sources. In any debate it is only logical to have that? I only stated what logically makes sense. If I'm wrong I would like to be proven wrong. As for MB comment was that some type of insult or attempt to insult? It only proofs my point further that many people see it as unfair yet no one has proven any actual fraud, or scam, just personal perspectives that clash with the simple fact that this is a business. Labeling as fraud or rip of is how people without actual fact justify something they don't like or affects them on an emotional level so they try to mislead the conversation. So I will ask again, what is your proof that it is a rip of from a logical perspective? What has SE violated legally?

    Note: There is a difference in an argument and debate.

    Argument; an exchange of diverging or opposite views, typically a heated or angry one.

    Debate ; a formal discussion on a particular topic in a public meeting or legislative assembly, in which opposing arguments are put forward.

    I don't think my text can express anger so I would think this is a formal conversation.

    It's basic membership, how it's run and experience varies based on player communities and participation. Ic an go trough sooo many links and areas to prove a point...however anymore than this would be wasted.

    Cut scene; If you even think about it or even kept track of the forums you would have notice that many new players were complaining about speed runs on main story so that was SE answer to their feed back.

    Housing Was work in progress, they open up new wards, and even change the rules to obtaining houses. Those who got them was do to their handwork and timing. Storage was given more options and more storage so not sure where your complain is maybe thinking old content and not read up on patch notes?

    saying rip off doesnt necessarilly mean fraud or scam, nothing of that such, if anything im stating that it doesnt belong in the game franchise, it simply shouldnt exist, that it happen or not, I agree to disagree

    You trying to counter argument all i've said is kinda sad because, I can continue to say why what you typed isnt true IMO & so on so on,also would you like me to spoil dragoon & main storyline for others? I dont want to. You do enjoy trying to turn everything around in favor of the game so go ahead, keep doing that because

Player B same thing with the exception he is running FFXIV on a separate HD. Which HD will give out first? Now picture this as information being transferred from servers and 1 million players accessing content at the same time, kind of the early release of an expansion. Anyone that has played early access and release dates have experience constant server stability is the worst at this point. Same issues people will complain and while people think they are special or should get priority they miss the point that severs and data is always fluctuating involving various factors. This server congestion can affect stability, not to mention everyone system can be effected differently. You can't expect a PC from 2002 to run the same as one from 2015. A 32bit system vs a 64 bit system, so no data can vary and display issues can vary. Instances were set up to help stability issues.

    For loading information temp data storage on a system can also fluctuate based on settings such as anti virus or system maintenance settings. Storing Data is not the issue, it's how it communicates based on various factors.
    You just did the same thing there again + yes all this is much easier than you make it sound, its a joke dealing with you.

    ps: yes i said sad & then followed with joke later on so, sad joke i guess

    Did not ask for the story line just the Dragoon quest name.

    So far all I've seen is information with nothing to back it up just a perspective from personal experience which even after responding to each point, even gave you links, you can't even prove otherwise. At a minimum you can understand that if your going to complain or have a concern at the very least have credit ability or build it up with some actual facts that can be proven or can't be contradicted. Repeating he same thing and still being questioned should have made that clear. Must be nice jumping from thread to thread thinking it has not been cover or proven wrong. So far not impressed, a joke? the only real joke is people who think they have an argument and can't even get their facts straight or prove their perspective so they get emotional. The hypocrisy of people claiming to not support a company yet are still here. That is a joke.

    FINE FFS ESTINIEN SHOULDNT BE THERE, YET ESTINIEN IS THERE. eat rodent cheese

    Just as back up to my comment without going back to quests to tell you exact name & number,,, as there is probably multiple but: MSQ use estinien & so drg quests should be locked but no this game doesnt do this, yet in ffxi if an npc is stuck/gone in a mission or a quest, then in rhapsodies of vanadiel which is the game wrap up last expansion, well the quest or mission is locked untill the npc return home or wherever the eft it belongs.

    In terms of inventory space it is not hard to sort or look for things. The only annoyingthing really is when you have a FC vault , multiple retainers to call up every time. However these problems are really insignificant if you are organized. Here is my setup to make things very easy being I'm constantly crafting and taking advantage of the high demand for lower level gathering gear in my server.

    Personal bag. Unless I'm crafting at the moment 0 materials( exception of gathering collection items ). Keep materia , support potions, and on only items that I have retainers gathering. Once I only craft I fully stock on items I'm focusing on and makes it a lot easier.

    Retainers depending on their role they hold that type of item. Easy no problem finding it and when needed I know what retainer to call.
    [B]
    Choco bag; only for misc type items that I actually use. Scrolls, manuals, gear that needs to be enhanced, kind of a check of list.

    Being people are also impatient when crafting and want to know exact location the search function works great, tells you what panel and slot. People can sort and un - sort, I'm just glad they allowed the 999 stacks now.

    FC vault; Unless it's related to projects or completed parts no other real reason for it being used.

    Over all slot inventories are a pain, however they are better than other types. I hate rotating inventories -.-;

    Let me add,train of rmts doing storylines(do you know how many of theses ive seen while running my slow lalafell mule around the whole storyline for a second time?)
    X Y Z disappear with characters under the ground & pop 1000yalms away in a matter of seconds,that is one thing that could be handled much better,

    NXT,
    Main scenario fix that force players doing the roulette to watch 1hour of cutscene for no reason(I stopped doing that roulette the day it got implemented)
    MS roulette should be completely removed or more should be added to it(I will leave & take the 30minutes penalty if I get a praetorium & the other dungeon if I get that as roulette)
    One fix could be to take off the 30seconds zoom on your staggered face in the cs & cut down the cs time by half & even half of it probably would be too much.

    Housing could of been all stormblood was in my opinion with this 17months that took this one eureka zone soo far.Wards/plots could use more items to display,
    we could turn around the way houses are facing on the land or even move them to a different corner, we could use more exterior designs like some said some are actually bad depending on positions & players would use more basic simple one, or make more extraordinaire exteriors like tonberry, limitation that doesn't allow me to put hedges completely around my plot shouldn't be(hedge shouldn't even exist if you cant do proper use of it,theres not enough items allowed to layout because then its at the cost of everything else (like I posted under housing,Go read elsewhere))

    Housing insides,doors options are very limited & so most of that look bad unless you manage to make miracles with the 3 options you have,
    interactive items,go past 40 & your items disappear at sight,Default pillars & windows inside are not customizable you actually have to hide them if you dont like them.

    Mounts/Generic musics versus original songs or just duplicatas///
    When on a double seater mount as a passenger, you can not utilize some items like (aether current compass) while on your own mount by yourself you can,
    Also I noticed that you can not change ring#2 slot no matter what you do if you are passenger it'll always go to ring #1 (unless I'm mistaken,,,)

    Also,

    Spoiler alert: Do dragoon questline as soon as you can upon getting access to coerthas (dragonhead)area because further on the main mission line it actually doesn't match this questline too well anymore.

    Fishing & collectables:while gathering with botany & miner for turn ins, to my knowledge while you can get optimal values with theses 2 fishing is a whole different story,
    offhand tool could be great for more gathering & perception yet all we have is gig.

    As ppl mentioned before too much of a crowd means npc(monsters & players in your party) disappear from screen/vicinity.

    FC requirement for workshop? anyone who is/can be a single fc holder or even if there is 4 members,it doesn't mean you possibly have all of them on at the time wanted yet fc can handle building stuffs by themselves
    as long as they get 3 other persons randomly asking.

    Specialist souls for crafters, limited to 3.

    Macros,macros is one thing that make 11,macros system is definatly something that should be fixed.

    Limitations on some items should be removed like, a lot of medicines recast timers arnt worth it, also there is no reason that we should only be allowed x2 food duration as they already doubled it, we should be allowed 24hours if we wanted as for a new player sprinting the whole path from a to z skipping cutscenes (skippable ones...) take about 14days of playtime instead we have to use food every 1h & thus forgetting it at times, if you want to just do that you should be able to imo, sure you dont want vitality & you do want crafting food instead well so be it,overwrite the food, that would be our mistake not coding.

    Zodiac to Anima glass, how come did we get a key item for anima weapons but the good old zodiac stand physicaly in your inventory? I started a zodiac book for sch, I accidently cancelled the quest (glad I wasn't far into it) but the maximum allowance to quests accepted (specially as there is soooooo many of them) should be pushed further on the limit or at the very least some quests should fall under a specific category.

    I could state many more things but instead ill just say this,There is soo many things that could be done for this game health & instead we get the current first eureka feel which ppl claim that it took 17months, heck I think 12 months for that would be just as bad , as Vstarstruck stated,I would take a single dungeon over this & while a couple of you are saying that we just lost one dungeon, (Im one of the few that think the production rate of a single dungeon per patches is actually very little) I want a full expansion pack upon purchasing not several crumbs over 12months, Hildebrand storyline seems to be going downhill & the highlight is that whenever new missions get released, it last 1day.
    Heres your picture. I never spoke about breaking any commercial laws.
