Actually that specific emote was a reward from a seasonal event in 2014 and was put later into the mogstation.
However, I agree that emotes should not be put into the mogstation ^^

I am just sad that a emote for this price does not loop...I mean they could have at least done that..x_x
15$ sub monthly wich lands at 180$ a year if you pay every month and you would think se would not be as greedy. I played since March 2014 and seeing so much increase in the mog station as of late has gotten sickening. This is looking like a free to play game more and more now with the store getting loaded & content quality decreasing & too much focus on glam with no stats worthy of use except we pay a subscription.
Real shame there is no custom music with new mounts as someone who collects mounts I've altogether stopped buying them because of this. I mean for $24.99(almost $30 here in Canada) I would at least expect that. It's a shame really but I can't give them money for mounts if they chose to do keep adding generic theme, the generic mount theme isn't enjoyable anymore.Over 300 songs in the OST and they couldn't find something to add to the mount that works and sounds nice.
Isn't the emote the dance that's done in the SB wvr storyline near the end? That's kinda neat that they made it usable by players, though I'm as usual 50/50 on it being bought for money and not earned in-game somehow
25% increase is meaningless in overall accounts because they take into account any Trial accounts alongside legitimate purchases. Bragging about numbers that can only go up, such as Overwatch with its countless posts about "X" players have answered the call or w/e, is never a good indicator of where the game is at.
What we should be asking is for the actual active subscription count and the retention rate for the game. Honestly I wouldn't be amazed if with the sudden plethora of Mog Shop items and underwhelming content that the Retention Rate has actually gone down and we're sitting at a lower player count than what would be desired given the Stormblood expansion sales.
The Mog Shop has honestly gotten out of hand shoving many things that should be in the game or re-introduced into their yearly events for event items. Outside of maybe Promotional Items such as the Nezha outfits, Nimbus Eastern set and Physical Purchase Codes there is no reason things like Edda's outfit shouldn't have been a High End PoTD reward or Sleipnir associated with Odin's Primal fight. Many of these things should have incentives to run older content or play as certain classes not quick cash grabs like the Freemium Companion App.
I'm yet to see the validity of selling emotes as Mog station items. I just... no.
The Red Hare Horse I purchased already because I seriously love collecting horse mounts in this game. The Devs invest a lot of time and resources developing mounts in general and I can respect that; hence why I bought this one (and purchased the Odin's Sleipnir in the past as well).
But those emotes? That is where I draw the line... absolutely no.
