Metallic Dyes...

[Adrian74]

Just readed something terrible in the patchnotes.... Okay, yes, you defenders of it are going to say "It is vanity stuff, so what's the matter?"... For me it is not vanity stuff.

For me it is vanity stuff a stupid mount, a stupid gearset, a stupid minion... But being able to dye your clothes in cool colors, okay, yes, you can call that vanity, but... IT IS CHOOSING COLORS... It is for all gears, and...The worse thing of it is that it is unlimited, and I mean, people change more of colors than of small clothes... Metallic dyes should be something special you obtain by difficult quests or something, or, even, if it is difficult or annoying to create those quests or difficult stuff, at least, at least... Add it to the RNG pool of the retainer.

It's just... A feature I expected to be in game, not in a cash shop... *sigh*

...and another very stupid move to the cash shop! D: <

Why the f*beep* colours cost REAL money?!
Why our retainers cant find them (like the other Metallic colours!)!?

Even if I would like to have the metallic Red colour for my other char. I WONT pay real money on items for pay-to-play game! Never!
I dont want people think about me like: rich noob, idiot, show off, fat nerd, no life! = No thanks from me to cash shop!
Some people like me just dont like cashshop users. They only want to show off! Like the people in Mor Dohna Afking around on there Odin mounts. <.< (I personaly wouldnt feel "proud" or "cool" for "having" an virtual item locked on the server that cost real money)

Please stop with the friggin cash shop!

If the choices were Mog Station or retainer's RNG pool, I honestly prefer the Mog Station. Dealing with Quick Exploration's horrible RNG is ... well ... horrible.

Let's throw more firewood to the campfire..... At least with RNG it is inside, you know, and... Some rare.

What about if one of the choices were gathering Metallic Pigments and crafting the gear in game?
SE could have easily made metalic dyes obtainable this way as well.

Adding this kind of item to the shop is taking away from content that should be added into the game.
And making things hard to get in game and then selling them in the cash shops is a common F2P stratagy.

In your personal bubble you may think that colors are necessary. In my bubble, minions and mounts are necessary because I'm a collector. And yet, I still call my minions and mounts a vanity.

Your entire post is fuelled by your personal opinion. I see no harm in ANOTHER VANITY being added. They're not necessary. You have red, green, and blue dyes available that would only make you lack the "omg im a shiny princess" motif.

I personally would rather get rid of all metallic dyes. They're hideous.

So youd pay money for them because they made it so hard to get those dyes.
This is basic f2p strategy, make things hard to obtain ingame and offer them for real money.
