I meant no offense, its text, you read it how you'd like to read it.

"I'm not sure you even know what you're talking about. " Most normal people don't respond well to people who say things like that to them.

Kind of aggressive to me, but anyway I don't find any of this to be as big a deal as you seem to.

Have fun and take care!

And also thank you for answering my question, even if we disagree.

We are getting these earrings with every new expansion preorder bonuses.. I mean, yeah I would understand getting angry if you were getting the Feast ranker titles or legacy tattoo, but it's just the endwalker preorder earrings from like 2021, nothing too serious here.

For the price of one fantasia, you get an objectively better package. It's surprising they didn't do it earlier really. I wish it was a bit cheaper than that, but atleast it's not more expensive than base price.

I mean it was a decade ago?

I stopped believing on exclusivity in this game when the "exclusive" FanFest 2016 items were made available for purchase on the mogstation. There is a tiny disclaimer now that states "Exclusive items might be re-released" or something to that effect.

As for selling items on a subscription-based game, it was the players who requested a cash shop so they could support this game. And people keep buying so just do what I do and don't but stuff from there, or roll with the masses.

Collectables usually increase in value when they get older. At least in bragging rights, I mean you can't sell these digital items or anything.

The older an item gets the less people are still around owning them. Which makes the item more rare and special.

You will be able to use the pre-order bonus item for 3+ years before being in the shop. You now have exclusivity for the entire expansion.
During those 3 years, the XP bonus will be more relevant- unless you cap every job each expansion. Now that we have earrings that cover level 90, buying an earring that only goes to 80 is pointless when it comes to actually wearing the earring.
You will not have to pay $10 for it.

These exist in the hundreds of thousands to millions. They are not rare or exclusive, and were never marketed as such, only as bonuses.

Personally, I find the whole concept of exclusivity really nonsensical. How exactly does other people owning something diminish your enjoyment of it?

That being said, the earrings come with the preorder, you don't even have to pay extra. If you know you'll be buying an expansion anyway, there is little reason not to preorder and get the extra stuff, even though half the rewards are minions nobody will ever use.
