REALLY?!?!

So, taxes came, $$$$ time, so I bought 3 months sub and stormblood. I wake up today and see new stuff added to mog station.

Long story short, why 7$ for an emote? I mean, I just gave you 80$+.

Refuse to pay more than 3$ for an emote. Please change this.

This playerbase would buy a literal bag of shit if it was on the Mog Station. It's why we keep getting more on it at higher prices. :/

Oh I want that emote, been waiting since launch for it so yeah, I AM FORCED to get what I want this way. WHY? Because there is NO other way to obtain it.

Oh no they are forcing us to buy the emotes, they might hold our keyboards hostage so we can't play the game...

No wait... they aren't.

So your complaint isn't really that they're charging you extra cash for a simple emote... it's that they're charging too much?

I agree I don't have any problems with them selling emotes in the mog shop if they were like $3-4 but at $7 is just crazy most the stuff on the mog station is way overprice and needs to be cut in half.

YES. Im not poor, i can afford stuff but, jeeze, 7$ is kind of a lot for a simple emote. I dont even think it cost 7$ to make the emote lol

Not an altogether unreasonable complaint I suppose. I mean, you can get the Eastern Cherry Tree for less than the emote.

That said, they are optional. The emotes won't suddenly give you a leg up doing AS12 or anything. Otherwise I'd agree. Mind you, I'm not sure how /playdead or /backflip would work into story rewards like other emotes do. /bstance /vpose were added and I still find those way better than any emote from the Mog Station.

Only emote I'd like to see on the Mogstation now is the Odin emote you could only get from buying that $200 figurine.

Calm down cowboy, I was complaining about a price on an OPTIONAL purchase. I'm not asking SE to fall on their swords for me dude. Just that they lower the price by 4$. Which actually seems reasonable. And yes, i am okay with them selling things on the mog station.

Admittedly the prices of many things on the mog station are kindda crazy. Like that fat moogle mount. Holy canoly no thanks. Emotes should be under $5 imo as they are emotes, mounts I think should cap at $15 and everything should be account wide. This single character stuff is nuts.

It definitely didn't since it involved 0 new animations.

But instead of just adding it to the game and saying "hey you've been asking for this for a while, so we threw it together into an emote button for you, enjoy." they decided that they wanted $7 extra per character for this nonsense that should've just been a simple addition to the patch.

Time to make a sacrifice. O.o How bad do you want it? lunch money sacrifice?

Good luck with that.

I'm no developer, so I don't know what is considered "reasonable", especially when I'm not the one doing all that encoding and stuffs, and I think SE has the right to charge as much as they want with the content they make.

Let's not go all SJW there.

urgh enough of these threads! why can't you just comment on someone elses thread whining rather than creating a new one?

Yeah I agree they overcharge for the emotes. I still bought it though just for my main character. I see no use for the backflip emote personally so I didn't get that one. Still the /playdead emote is a little misleading. It uses a different animation and pose than the actual death pose. I'm a little annoyed but glad too. The female Miqo'te pose they curl up on their side face obscured so I guess that means somebody can't do lewd emotes to my character. Then again they'll probably try to do so anyway if I were to allow it.

I'm not, what gave you that idea? I'm just being real that SE isn't forcing me to buy their new content and I don't have a right, since I don't have no game developing skills, to know how much said content should be priced.

No, people will buy overcharged stuff if there is NO OTHER OPTION. Duh.

I was hoping you could /changepose between the animations we see and the actual death pose animations, but apparently, $7 isn't worth that...

No they did overcharge. Whether I paid for it or not isn't the deal here. 7 bucks for an emote attached to one character is too much. That's why I didn't buy the other emote and just one of them.

And this, right here. Exactly.

It's 14$ for 2 emotes, thats a months sub right there.

Just tried, you just stand back up and change your idle stance.

You say it's too much, but SE did know what they were doing when they priced it. They charged what they did because people will buy it. They're making bank and there is no sign on their end that they set the price too high so they'll likely continue down this path in the future, and unfortunately for us players, those that really wanted the emote are forced to buy it if they still want it at this point because the players have spoken; there will never be another way to get this emote, and this is now the more likely scenario for introducing the next heavily-requested emote (or other vanity item) into the game. I think that's what was being said there.

Quick guys, new things were added on mogstation! Better make a thread to complain about the prices we already knew was going to be high....

Do we honestly need another thread concerning the Mogstation?

As much as im against adding original stuff to Mogstation, im ashamed to say I bought it...

Please forgive me Q-Q

Yes, actually. I would prefer to see these things in-game first, but I could live with them being mogstation exclusive provided the prices were reasonable.

These prices blew straight through 'unreasonable', ran past 'shocking' and winked at 'ludicrous' on their way to extortionate.

not only that, but NA account are getting rip off as well https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachmen...75/unknown.png

Would it really have killed you to make the title of this "New emotes are priced too high in the Mog Station"?

Was "REALLY?!?!" the best way to go here?

Yah, I'd have to agree here. There might be some international fees involved that we don't know about. But yah. That outdoor furniture set is $10 in the NA store. Even once you convert the EUR to dollars it's cheaper. I wonder why...

because a single thread wouldn't get our messages across, we need the entire forum full with unsatisfying threads.

I bought it, get over yourself. Its just an Emote. If you dont like it then dont buy it.

What is done is done.

Just be glad they didnt charge 18$ for it.

Wouldn't put it past them, oh they pay $7 for emote lets charge $10, oh they bought it for $10 least sell the next one for $12 and so on. Can see that trend with the mounts ($12, $24, $29.99)
