Allow me to tell you a story.

Once upon a time, SE announced plans to introduce extra retainers via a cash shop.

Most of you were perfectly fine with this.

A few of us looked at this...

They've just gone too far in my book.

My subscription ends in 9 days and I will NOT be renewing.

People keep saying they're ok with cash shop as long as it's not pay to win. Define 'win'. ...

Awww, you beat me to it!

Yeah, I would pay real money for a monthly subscription to the game. Oh, look at that, I already do! ><

Yeah, in an 8 page thread, let's dwell on that one aspect of 1.0 that people have mentioned and continue talking about how difficult it can be to converse. :/

At any rate, some of these threads...

Habit.

Right now, I'm logging in out of habit.

I've had an MMO to play for the past 9 years. First with FFXI, then switched over to FFXIV. When 1.0 went offline, I went back to 11, but,...

Wow, how fast do you type that you can enter a full sentence in 2.5 seconds between when you have to hit the next button for your skill rotation. *rolls eyes*

Anyway, here is my point of view: ...

Wow.

And wow, you have a LOT of fireworks! :D

I mentioned multiple reasons why housing, as currently implemented, was unreasonable.
I did not use extremes, I merely applied the current housing availability situation to other game features as a...

*snort*

I couldn't even read that one out loud to my husband. I kept snorting and laughing.

Thought so, it's only reasonable because you're not interested in it.

Personal housing is unreasonable for multiple reasons:

-same as fc housing, so either you get 50+ of your friends to help you buy it, or for the SAME PRICE, you buy it all on your own.
-same as...

RNG is RNG. I do always advocate for a token system in cases like that, especially with primal weapons, but not necessarily with regard to relic weapons. Relic weapons should take a long time.
...

Well, if we're going to be all nitpicky, I don't know if I like personal housing or not, simply because I can't even participate in it.

So, perhaps they'll implement a gun class in a similar way. ...

From what I understand, back in the beginning of 2.0 Yoshi repeatedly mentioned the fact that Musketeer has been highly anticipated by the players.

So, I expect that we will either never, ever...

Ok. Let's try another comparison.

"Ninja is coming. However, at launch of 2.4, only about 160 people per server will be able to open the job. But, don't worry! A few weeks later, 700 more...

"We've released the Second Coil of Bahamut. However, due to server stress, there are only 160 instances available. Once those instances have been used, you'll have to wait until next patch to try....

Hard to move beyond something like this.

Imagine if relic upgrades were hyped for months and then announced to have a limited availability.

That light you're getting on your relic, well, for...

Why is paying for a retainer ok, but paying for a house is reason to suggest that I leave the game?

Neither are truly game breaking.

Explain?

I don't want to buy gil, I want to buy a house.

First, if housing is end-game then it shouldn't be walled off behind a gilsink either. Besides, 90% of the forum thinks housing is just vanity and no one should be upset about it being so...

Yes, it is, but pretty much everyone else said everything else I would have said, and I really don't want to get banned from the forums for the profanity that I would unleash should I decide to voice...

Look, some of us play the game for fun and not to simply farm gil or play the market boards.

You launched services that allow people to pay extra real money for additional retainers.

I...

Here is a weakness in many of the arguments presented here about difficulty of the fights and learning the 'mechanics.'

The fight mechanics in this game are almost exclusively based on very...

I want to know who he is so I can marry him and listen to him talk for the rest of my life :D

Mine also keeps bringing me coeurl or hippogryf skin.

Once, he brought me a herring.

I had a powerful urge to beat him with it :/
