Not to get into this but that is not what shot XI in the foot. If anything it probably helped the game live a little longer. Godmode materia allows for fights to be a LOT harder, and a LOT more difficult. Final Fantasy fans love stupidly powerful bosses. There's a reason why Square included mega boss fights in its console games (optional), because we love doing them. Making players more powerful means you can make bosses more powerful, which is very thrilling for most of us.

Do you know how much i'd love to be decked out and face something that could still kick my ass? It makes that accomplishment of defeating it THAT much sweeter. If you keep the players relatively weak then there becomes little point in trying to become powerful at all. You have a low ceiling, and even if you hit it the content is still the same old difficulty. It stagnates the game more than anything else. Powerful materia are a very very very good thing.

This is actually true... Difficulty is based mostly off of the content... not the gear

Expanding development options

[Elexia]

I spent millions to double meld a Serenity IV belt and now they increase it by double fold?! This ticks me off so much! I know they did not take into account the gear we have already worked hard to meld, as if they are that nice.

They took into consideration of the future of the game.

Guess devs/mods didn't like my criticism, could have been nicer about it I guess but oh well, not like it matters anyway.

That would be awesome...lol

On a side note thou, the forums temp bans builds up in time,
the more bans you get the longer the bans become. (Speaking from exsperience)

So please, do try stay to topic in a friendly manner.
