Inventory Tabs

[Resheph]

I decided it was worthwhile to make a thread for this dicussion after seeing the below posts from this thread.

We have discussed in the past the possibility of separating things like materia, or equipment, into tabs but it would only be for ease of sorting and not to add additional storage slots.

We'll continue to pass along your comments and suggestions, so keep 'em coming.

That's a little disappointing IMO, but I can understand the limitations. If we could have separate category tabs & an "all" tab I'd be all for it!

IE:
_______________________________________________________
|_ALL_|_GEAR_|_ITEMS_|_MATERIA_|_CRYSTALS_|_CURRENCY_|


ALL: Would show the inventory as it currently get's displayed with sort options
GEAR: Would show equip-able items only
ITEMS: Would show crafting materials, random items (like totems), etc.
MATERIA: Would show materia
CRYSTALS: Same as it currently is (not sure if that's the "ingame" version or not)
CURRENCY: Same as it currently is (not sure if that's the "ingame" version or not)

EDIT: This would make a heck of a lot more sense when selling items as well. I've come dangerously close a few times to selling my equipment and being able to exclude both materia and equipment would save me from that mistake.

I have seen/heard/made comments like this in game and on forums but I have never seen a thread specifically requesting this kind of change. I have felt this was needed for a very long time, myself.

What are your thoughts? I personally don't think it needs to add any space at all. Organization and sanity are the real needs here.

It would make all sorts of things a heck of a lot easier to do. Selling items, Crafting, Trading, etc etc. I could see Crystals and Materia being in the same tab, but having them separated has it's advantages too.
