[dev1244] Accessory Reform, discussion

[Nero]

If you don't care about looks or stats, why do you care? All I see is you wanting to use all possible slots because we have two arms or ears.

Comprehension Skill, do you need it ? Or did you smoke Apeshit?

I said i dont care if we can use 5 or 9. I said i dont care how it looks! All i care about is the fact that almost every friggn MMO ( including FFXI ) out there make it possible to wear 2 Earrings, since you have simply 2 Ears. If SE get rid of both Wristlets, so i can use both Earrings, then im Game. But making BOTH 1, instead of making one of them 2, is simply Nonsense.

I much rather have 2 earrings and no bracelet, in the end the stats maybe the same but the feel of the game is different.

This

. It's pretty much exactly the same thing here actually lol. You equip a single item that has a single set of stats and yet it appears on both sides.

No its not the Same. PGL/MNK always worked that way, Earrings didnt work always that way. If we get Dualwield you also will wear 2 Weapons in seperated Slots.

No I'm good on the comprehension. You only want both slots because we have two ears or two arms, and for no other reason at all. Why does it matter though? It still appears on both arms or ears with few exceptions.

It's not nonsense, it makes perfect sense. They had to reduce the number of slots so instead of removing an entire accessory type, the reduced the duplicate slots. So you'd rather have them remove entire accessory types instead of having just one slot? So basically it's I want it all or nothing at all?

Except it is the same. The only difference is, as you stated, that this is a change as opposed to an existing system. However the game is in a state of great change and such things are necessary. We can't just keep everything the way it was because that sucked. As far as gameplay goes however it IS exactly the same. You equip one weapon that appears in both hands and gives a single set of stat bonuses. You equip an earring that appears on both ears and gives a single set of stat bonuses. You equip a bracelet that appears on both wrists and gives a single set of stat bonuses. It's the exact same thing as far as the game is concerned. Also new players won't know the old system and won't care, as far as they're concerned the current system is all there is.
