Sell Fantasia on the Mogstation

Well, on my alt character I was able to get the fantasia in a surprising TWO days. I honestly had 0 problems getting one my alt character. However, my brother has had worse luck. He put in a ticket 2 weeks ago, and is yet to receive a new phial of fantasia. He's had a couple of responses to which they told him "Sorry, but we're busy at the moment. You will receive your fantasia via Mogstation" I really hope they're eventually put up on Mogstation sometime soon. It'd be a very welcomed service.

No.

No cash shop, not now, not ever. Don't go down that road to make a quick buck. The people that want it need to deal with it or go elsewhere.

Noticed the same.. hopefully they'll add it.

So I wonder if applying for an Item Restoration is still feasible... 102 days after using it. :D

4 months after making the thread and still nothing must not feel too good!

sqenix plz I want to roe my boat

I think I'm hyping myself up too much for this maintenance tomorrow >_>

You over hyped me too... and I think we both know it has nothing to do with Fantasia lol

This thread is reaching page 115. We, the players have spoken!

Got a reply to my ticket saying they are sorry that I lost an item and are investigating my account to see if I did indeed lose it. That just means they didn't even bother to read the body of my ticket and just clicked on a copy & paste answer. Go SE Support! :D

Got the exact same E-mail been over a week and a half and nothing, sent another ticket they said they are escalating it..... UGH!!!

I have two Fantasia's but I'm scared to use one, hate my decision, change back to Lalafell, and be boned if they add more character customization options (like the upcoming freckles). TBH, we should be getting one of these a month as a subscription bonus until they are available to purchase separately.

I submitted a ticket, took about a week to get a reply that they are "investigating" and it's been a week since then with no replies.

Should I submit another?

We've checked again with the team on selling Fantasia, and have confirmed that this item will be available for purchase at a later date. We don't have anymore information as to when it will be available however but we will be sure to update you as soon as we know.

What about renames? Selling fantasia but still not being able to change your name to something suited for the race changed to makes it unappealing to purchase.

Thanks for the update, just wish it wasn't taking so long :P

Any update on the renaming feature would be appreciated as well!

so you are confirming it as a microtransaction now though...

Good to know. I guess it'll be a few months at least before I reactivate then.

You can thank the people who bought DLC and made F2P/B2W the most lucrative sources of income.

The Mogstation was created to be cash shop since the beginning. I'm not sure how this is surprising to you, as we've known about it for months.

I don't like the idea that they'll most likely be inevitably offering bonuses effecting more than vanity (I'll probably quit when they start that), but if it means I can get a Fantasia drink whenever I want, I'll put up with it for now.

I'm far from surprised, not sure why you assumed I am. It just never really began until now (when they will sell the potion there).

I'm never going to use the cash shop. It will just encourage SE to have more things in there (that could otherwise be obtainable in game- which you know, I p2p for already.)
Just seems too greedy to me.

So should they hand them out for free in a limitless supply? If people want to spend a few extra bucks to re-do their character then there should be an option for it. However it should have some sort of price associated with to one discourage non-stop changes and two profit (SE is not a charity).

Most mmos offer a service where you can pay to recustomize your character, transfer servers, or otherwise do account related things that have next to no effect on actual gameplay. That shouldn't be confused with a cash shop, which offers direct bonuses to players willing to pay that gives them a definitive advantage over other players.

Of course it's greedy, this is a business. But if people are willing to pay 20$ to go from a miqote to a lalafell, that's obviously lucrative and probably will be implimented. It has next to no effect on you or your gameplay experience, and the notion that a game company exists solely to cater to your own individual tastes and give you everything you could ever desire for a paltry 15$ a month is a little naive. My point: Paying for non-gameplay changing services like transfers or character customization does not = cash shop. You can theorycraft all day about what will happen if it's introduced, but at the end of the day what people are asking for in this thread is simply to be able to purchase a Fantasia with money. No one is asking for a cash shop to buy lottery bags that may have an iLVL 100 sword but probably have a useless materia instead. No one wants that.

If they limit the "cash shop" to just server transfers, name changes, and fantasia, I have absolutely no problem with it.

It is when they sell things like mounts, xp boosts, vanity gear, etc that it starts to rub me the wrong way.

lol a cash shop mog bonanza? No thanks!

I also agree, if the Mog Shop offers anything besides vanity items I'll likely quit. In a time when subscription models seem to be dwindling and F2P becoming more popular, I choose to play a subscription based game because I believe it offers a better quality experience and those that fork out the most real life cash aren't the people that get to had all the advantages.

If the Mog Shop starts selling boosts, you'll probably see "Must have X-boost from M$ or we'll kick!" in the Part Finder.

^ This. I'd be taking my leave as well if it goes this route. Name changes, fantasia, server transfers, hell even mounts. Fine.
Once I'm not invited to a group because I don't have a $40 chest piece from Mog Station, see ya. =/

uhmm maybe it's just me but what stops the Fantasia phial from being available ingame again?
With a 30 day cooldown and maybe buyable with 40k grand company seals it'd be a great way to change your character as a refreshment since the game encourages you to only play 1 char all day and night.

I'd be fine with a name-change to be mog-station only since I can assume it's quite the hassle but appearance itself... I dunno I dunno, please discuss this with your team again and think about a non-greedy solution as we're already paying monthly.

Thank you.

Relax people, I HIGHLY doubt Square would sell actual in-game armor for money -_- you are causing drama over nothing, please stop.

The Mogstation purchasable items will most likely be cosmetics and character services (fantasia, name change, server transfer)

also, thanks Hvinire for the update, really appreciate it.. would love to see this implemented soon :)

Appreciate that something was said after 3 months, but this is still too vague. Later date? March? July? 2015? Yeah, it's not something to get hopeful over.

Looks like I'm stuck looking bad for an indefinite amount of time. This is very disappointing to hear. I had hoped we'd see Fantasia available tomorrow. I shouldn't have gotten my hopes up.

It really sucks having to play a character that I don't like the look of.

OH MY GOD THEY ARE SELLING FANTASIA IT'S THE END OF THE WORLD EVERYBODY RUN!

Seriously calm down. If you didn't think they would be selling it you were delusional.

Happy we finally got another response though!
