It's the Final Fantasy IX system of learning abilities from your gear. I don't mind it at all, but I do think that some of the skills that too long to learn.

Why is there so much gear?

It's almost Diablo-esque in how they constantly throw so much gear at you. It facilitates the weapon/armor upgrade system given that you can dismantle items for raw materials, but it makes inventory management a pain when you have 5 of the same item all with different stats, and it isn't just different abilities either. It's actual stats like increased HP or attack power that is different as well.

Half the time I buy gear but when I go to equip it, I can't remember which version of which piece I actually bought. I don't think there's a way to equip right after you buy something, although I could have overlooked it.
