The guy's notion is that training packages and skill category ranks are just a way to get things for free and break the game. He's not totally wrong. Training package stacking does allow more competent first level characters but that doesn't really bother me but he's right you could start out at a higher level if you want more competent characters.. Skill categories as written in RMSS basically make you pay double to get the same bonus on individual skills as the progression is 2 for category and 3 for skill while RM2 is 5 for skill (for the first ten ranks in both games) Even so, I've often said that the skill / category split could have been better implemented to allow for a variety of approaches but was instead done so rigidly that you couldn't really ditch them if you wanted to use culture and training packages.
