Everybody would scream pay to win if they did that, not a good idea.
Its already so easy to level up the gatherer and crafter classes and its not like we only have 99 leve a week. You get one new leve every three hours I think? What is next? Should we put blue and red scripts as a bundle in the cash shop? Maybe buy all master books in a bundle? And if you buy it all you will get a fully melded crafter/gatherer set?
A MMO is a longtime investment and it should take some time to level everything up.
I would be with you if you demanded a raise of the limit or something like that but all those cash shop requests..and often by people with barely any posts..its just sad.
This falls into the bucket of pay to win. Assuming they keep to Yoshi's original view of the cash shop they'll never do this. I'm also pretty sure this is a troll. In fact, every time I see one of these "CASH SHOP PLZ!" threads I'm leaning toward troll even before I open it given how many have come up recently.
No, because is pay to win.
Wouldn't that be considered P2W? Considering how useful leves are for leveling crafts.
You can level your crafters and gatherers entirely without leves, you know that, right?
Levequests are a BONUS that make leveling easier, not something you should always have in the first place.
The DoH and fishing ones do if you've got the gil for them. I'm pretty sure anyone who would throw money at avoiding having to level up would throw gil at it as well.
The system is already balanced to allow you to either take an easy but limited approach of a few leves, a few quests, and a few turn-ins each day, or you can just level as much and as fast as you want by doing so directly rather than relying on those shortcuts.
I don't know what I appreciate more, the running gag or the reactions to the running gag. Eventually we're going to have a thread asking for putting forum posting privileges in the cash shop. Just ignore them and move on, it's pretty obvious what's going on here.
I just hope it's equally obvious to SE. They might not take a particular cash shop thread very seriously unless it gets support, but they do notice that a lot of people on the English forums seem to want more cash shop stuff. If they just see it as lots of requests and not as a running gag about what not to do, they could decide to move more development resources away from the game and into making more cash-shop exclusives.
Of course it helps that the gag is starting to be played a bit more obvious in many cases, but there are also plenty of trolls who try to mimic serious requests with it. Particularly since the people who decide on how to respond aren't generally reading much of the forum traffic directly, but getting summarized versions from the community staff, it's a bit too easy for details like how believable the requests are to get lost in that process.
