That's very true.
When SE asked us legacy members for support to help keep things running and rebuild the game, we did. They were humble about it and we pitched in to play a horrible game, but eventually we got 2.0 as part of the deal. They are the ones that calculated their budgets all out to achieve that goal.
What's this cash shop for? Did they ask for help this time?
You guys don't have to say "well I want that minion so OK, I guess. Here's my money."
Ya a company has every right to want more money, customers have every right to ask them why do you want to take more than I'm already giving? If the answer is "Yoshi wants a new skateboard or the YEN rate has been dropping",fair enough. Is it a good answer? That's up to you. As a consumer, you can ask.

Simple question. Would you rather the items be obtainable from within the game or do you want to pay more on top of your subscription fee?
