Although they're similar in function, ED's bank system works very differently from AQW. There's no hard cap on the amount of things that can be in the database, like a hard drive, it's just that when you allow "unlimited" entries, performance can degrade. I think we looked into raising the bank cap awhile ago and found very, very few players who had maxed their banks and inventories. However, we can revisit it again and see if it's worth raising the cap.

The challenge isn't just raising a number: it's also updating all the security measures to make sure it's not hackable, updating all the descriptions to make sure the new cap is clear, and of course, testing.

I like to say that nothing is impossible in the game, it’s just a matter of how long it will take to build. Our dev cycles usually involve a cost-benefit analysis in terms of time. So we list what we could do in a given week, and then select the changes, features, balance updates, and bug fixes that would have the most positive impact on the game.
