Keep past content out of Cash Shop

I also prefer the system where previous years' event items are available for in-game currency rather than an official RMT store.

Because minions, mounts, and outfits are frequently used as quest rewards in FFXIV, putting them into an official RMT store feels more like a pay-to-win scheme, even if they don't offer ability bonuses. I'm less concerned about subscriber rewards because anyone who plays the game will get them automatically over time.

I personally hope that SE pulls those items from the Cash Shop. I've seen the mounts around, but none of the past event items. Even then, I've heard complaints on the prices in game. I don't understand why there can't be a compromise set between SE and the players. Offer the items in the game during the event, then sell them during the off season. There will always be those impatient players with extra income who prefer getting what they want now over waiting a year.
