Never claimed that Yoshi told me that it was coming, I simply said that I think that it doesn't belong in the cash shop, just like the magitek mount doesn't belong there. It's part of the lore.

And I think you deserve a refund eitherways for paying for something that should have been an ingame item anyways.

Well the Magitek mounts not in there :P but you know that anyway you made my point people claim that Odin's fight's coming so that the mount should or was going to be a drop and that SE is selfish but Yoshi never said anything about that so? now it's a cash shop mount and i'm sure there will be more since it's selling. Your in Balmung like me so i'm sure just like me you have seen the lots of ppl with it :P but i'm not saying your wrong or i'm wrong just that some will use the cash shop others will scrap it any case happy gaming i'm drop out of this as i don't have anything more to say for now :P

Your really grasping at straws. Considering that SE has jammed a terrible horse into pretty much every primal so far, wouldn't it just make sense to have the one primal who actually uses a horse to drop it?

Call me crazy...

This guy gets it.

The fact is, if there was no cash shop that would how we would have gotten that mount, and even with a cash shop it still should have been how we got it. An elder primal mount is not a cash shop item, that's just as bad as putting the magitek which is part of the story in the cash shop. It just doesn't work.

Anyone can tell that Odin's horse is the in the Cash shop is SE being greedy by puting a high profile item that everybody wants behind a pay wall.

It's more looney when you realize that the outcome that they're hoping for isn't going to happen. Or if it does, it will have zero to do with their responses.

Yes this is a feedback loop to development, but 1) The arguments have become so riddled with hyperbole and attacks that they probably won't take them seriously (A previous thread had a person saying that they should harass people who bought content from the cash shop - classy stuff and a ban-able offense as harassing players is a no-no) and 2) it's not the most critical feedback that the developers are receiving.

What matters now is the revenue. If the number of players using the cash shop supports it's continued existence then it will continue. If not, then they'll adjust strategies with it. No amount of them tilting windmills in the forums will affect the result.

Eh.... to be honest I'd rather them have just focused on Chocobos being the only mounts at all. Imagine all the bardings and customization options we could have had if they weren't set on putting every clawed beast in the realm under a saddle.

Then they came for me—and there was no one left to speak for me.

... did you really just make a comparison between mass genocide and pixel items in a video game?

You are disgusting.

No, the OP did not. Perhaps the following (though also obnoxious if taken literally) analogy would have been safer:

The premise is that if a frog is placed in boiling water, it will jump out, but if it is placed in cold water that is slowly heated, it will not perceive the danger and will be cooked to death. The story is often used as a metaphor for the inability or unwillingness of people to react to significant changes that occur gradually, such as climate change.

Better idea:
Sell Nexus weapons directly in mogstation

Even Better idea:
Make a Nexus weapon bundle for sale which includes all job's Nexus weapons

Better than even better idea/OMG GENIUS IDEA:
Sell special version of Nexus weapons can that be obtained and used at lv1


Now let's be a bit more serious:
You made my day, you deserve a medal.

You shouldn't make up statistics. I'm sure plenty of people would quit if this happened, causing SE to take the servers down because the game would no longer be profitable.

And that's coming from someone who supports the cash shop.

You don't buy a weapon to have the best weapon, you do Coil.
If you don't want to do the relict quest, don't do it. There are already other weapons at the same ilevels.

Only way SE would sell relict weapon would be as a ilevel 1 version with no stats on it.
