Hi, I regularly play 4 characters on FFXIV and pay a slightly increased sub for this privilege. I don't like using Fantasia as although I don't RP, I have set character backgrounds for them all and don't wish to change from this. Clearly I'm in the minority here, as the Phial of Fantasia is the top-selling item on the Mogstation. Obviously, that's fine but the minority still matters in my opinion! :)
I don't think it's fair that if I purchased say, Play Dead for £4.03, I can only use it on one character that might only get used for say, 25-33% of my playtime, while my others go without. I think to expect people who play alts regularly because they like a change of pace for whatever reason to pay several times that much is just greedy - we already pay a subscription as it is.
Yes, I realise I don't have to purchase it and so far, I haven't. The only single character purchase I have made so far was for my wedding. The other was the Fat Moogle mount which although it cost me £17, all my characters can use it. I think all items on the Mogstation should be account-wide like this.
An alternative suggestion would be to say, charge £4.03 for Play Dead and £7 or so for an account-wide version. That way, people with only one character don't have to pay more. Like our subscription fee, we pay a little more to have access to more characters so why can't the Mogstation reflect this too?
I feel this is punishing players who choose to plays alts rather than buy Fantasia and I don't think that's right. I'd appreciate it if you could consider forwarding my points to the people who make decisions regarding this.
Thank you!
