If minion and mount collecting is your goal good for you but it's not p2w. Reposting cuz lazy (also cuz we don't need 20 threads about the same thing)
Making up your own game in the sandbox portion of ffxiv doesn't make this p2w.
If I join front lines and decide the guy who does the most emotes wins the match and SE puts a new emote in the cash shop, guess I better come start 20 threads about how XIV is p2w! Protip: doesn't work that way. Your personal mini game you make up does not redefine the games win condition.
Ever notice that all mounts run the same speed? Or that pure vanity gear is all Lv 1? Or that minions don't assist you in any tangible way? (Crafting, battle, stats, etc). Because SE has made a deliberate choice to leave those things as purely aesthetic. Aesthetic is not p2w. You can make up your own personal goals but that has no bearing on p2w.
Where was this rage with CE mounts and minions? Oh that's right there wasn't any. Hipocrits. Redefining what the game to suite your argument doesn't magically make you right.
