    YES PLEASE. I'm only interested in a game where I can play multiple characters! (I just get bored and quit otherwise).
    This game is too expensive compared to most games!
    Why $3 per char when we can only play one at a time anyways?

    Nabiri was referring to the cost of extra characters being too expensive, which they are. $3 per character is ridiculous, should be free like every other MMO except FFXI. SE just like screwing over people anyway they can.

    Wait are you serious? This has to be an entitlement thing because, based on the data provided, SE is still $1 less with two characters than their primary counterparts. Nobody is "screwing" anybody.

    Also, as a sidenote, I don't know if the idea of multiple characters works with this game primarily because the armory system is based on having a flexible character. Yes, different setups will work for most fights. But, from a time management standpoint, one versatile character is going to be better than multiple characters. There is no need (aside from personal preference which I do not discount) for a character for DoW and one for DoM.

    No, "compared to most games" that you PAY for. >.> I wasn't talking about free games at all.

    XIV is only on a discount for now, but I was speaking of the cost of extra characters.. where most games have no extra cost per character.

    Gil farmer #68039: I want multiple logins so I can buy one account and have 8 characters farming at once!

    I have 4 accounts, two for me and two for my two kids. At $9.99 it's really not that bad. Sub out one meal a month for instant ramen and bam, it's paid for.

    Having clones of the same client not cause race conditions is like the holy grail of online game development.

    But because of the way network communication works (with delays), it's impossible do it with distributed systems. That's why practically every MMO has two checks to make sure race conditions don't happen (authenticating the client, and then logging in with a character).

    I still don't see the need for having multi chars in this mmo, but to each his own i guess.
