Most complaints in a nutshell.

That's the argument I brought to the table when Sir Aymeric's jacket hit the station. To top it off, it even has a disciple of war restriction on it, for the lovely price of 15$.
SE's going to town with its pricing decisions because its extra income. They probably don't even have a target quota with the mogstation, which can explain why they're continuing with their "sell less for more" tactic. Expect to see in the future individual pieces from a set being sold at twice the price of a whole one.
I said something like this back in page 3.
If you people (collectively) keep buying these expensive things, then Square Enix will continue to put things on the Mog Station that are ridiculously expensive.
I am wholeheartedly expecting them to release an emote that has a USD15 price tag and another glamour set for USD32.
Is this what you all want?
...really.
Saw that on the live stream and just assumed it would be stormblood armor.
it's really feeling like my subscription and expansion purchases have less and less value over time...
Also gonna throw my support with the crowd calling SE out for charging almost 20 bucks for a two piece costume.
The mog station is getting out of control for a buy/pay to play game. And I continue to be disappointed in the fanatical/whale side of the community for letting SE get away with this.
Honestly? I couldn't care less. If they did, I simply wouldn't purchase it. I only have the Moogle mount because a friend decided to randomly gift it to me (because she's awesome). I didn't feel like spending $30 at the time, especially with how awful the Canadian currency value is. Nonetheless, people posting here don't even make up a fraction of the overall playerbase. So what we, the forum goers, want is irrelevant. Just make a choice based on how you value the outfit.
Is it too much? Don't buy it.
Do you want it enough to justify $18? Yes? Enjoy it!
To be honest, the cash shop ensures the success of the business, and so it brings me peace of mind when I think about its survival 10 years from now, and that my character will likely still be there for me to pick up again at any time.
It's easy to criticize the prices in comparison to F2P games, but people are buying them, aren't they? Everyone knows a lot of people will buy this $18 outfit. On the other hand how many $18 outfits do you see getting sold on F2P games? The reality is that FFXIV is of a higher quality in general, and so we have people that are more or less addicted to the content, and as this is a sub game, all of those people have money.
Would I prefer it if I could get this outfit for $5? Yes. Would I find it reasonable to be that low? That depends on what you're asking is reasonable or not.
It could be worse, it could be like some certain mmos that add new glamour/clothes and only keep in the shop for 1 weekend or 2-3 months.
With FFXIV you can actually get it when you want to get it. Want to save $5 per month to get this glamour in 3 months? You can do that
In other mmos they force you to buy these glamours in a couple of weeks or you won't ever be able to buy it until they care to add it to the shop again
