Maybe it's just me, but I would like to e able to keep my shop closed for one day so that I could stockpile materials and items for later use. Couldn't we have a "workday" in which only my shop people work and the customers stay out?
EBF4 is good if you want a more silly, but more diverse experience.
Mardek 3 is great if you want an old-school RPG... making fun of old schoo RPGs.
Both have their merits. Both are flexible in different areas.
I play Mardek for the story and world, and EBF for the combat.
Someone asked for an anti-Arkon strategy? Nat should have her pope or anti-dar armor on, while I suggest Lance should have maxed "Officer's" armor. Matt can wear whatever, focus on attack- he should be the hammer, not the meatshield, for once. +1 if good, kill if not.
