Devs dont really have a choice nor Yoshi-P, its ran by seperate group SE put in place as a deal with Yoshi-P, basically the FFXIV devs are contracted to give up something to cash shop on a regular basis (even more so with SK and CH.)

It not content, it only carrot stick. Like how chaotic is made to have hairstyle and mount as a carrot stick for the content.

Furthermore, if this was a ploy to redirect hatred, it would have to be one they've been pushing since its implementation; before the cash shop even existed as back then it was called MogStation Optional Items, as even as far back as ARR, HW and SB, since they've been mentioning her since then. She's the head of marketing for Final Fantasy XIV's IP, she's been on the game project since 1.0 and outranks him in both tenure and seniority.Quote:

They need to make all purchases be account wide and allow them to be duplicated for housing furnishings like Island Sanctuary does, then I would tolerate Mogstation purchases more.

The issue is people keep buying those items (me included for some), it's not a F2P game and all rewards should be available IG...

Ya'll really think you'll stop a 10 year old Cash Shop that came in ablazin with the pregnant Slepnir mount.
