    I heard WoW and FFXIV are merging. They said it's gonna be Eorzeazeroth: Realm of Warcraft. I dunno about that though. The person who told me was an avid Cash Shop afficianado that was against making purchases in the Cash Shop. They said they felt like one day the game will be pay-to-win if the Cash Shop isn't abolished. This person told me that they have purchased several items from the Cash Shop as they just had to have a lot of the items that can only be obtained via the cash shop, as they are a completionist, and wanted to make sure that they had the items as part of their collections. They did however rant about how they felt like they were made to make their cash shop purchases against their will, due to not being able to complete their collections without making their cash shop purchases.

    On a more serious note, I don't care about the Cash Shop. There's nothing there of any interest to me, and the mounts in question, are not really my style. In fact, I rarely ever even use my magitek mounts as I feel that they are too large and take up too much of the screen unless I zoom all the way out. I do feel that it is unnecessary to bash others, or give others grief, for being in favor of the Cash Shop. It's been mentioned 459873498754893 times (Seriously, I counted every mention, in every thread on the forums, and that was the number I got. Don't believe me? Recount!) that the Cash Shop will never be pay-to-win. If there is minion, or a mount, on the Cash Shop that you like, but hate to have to shell out additional money for, I encourage you to buy it. YOLO, right? I see it as being akin to purchasing action figures or vehicles for action figures. Stuff to play with for fun that doesn't contribute anything to the betterment of anything other than your happiness and the bottom line of a business. At least in this case you're contributing to SE and we can hope that the funds will go towards development costs to make the game bigger and better, and possibly even allow SE to fund other projects so they can develop other great games for us to enjoy.
