starting to lose interest in this game sadly

Not everything is on FFXIV either. For example, there is no first person shooter mode, so if I want to play that then I have to buy another game.

There's no promise of a first person shooter mode in an MMORPG...that's well beyond anyone's expectations. A Netflix subscription deals solely with TV/Film, so it's a lot less crazy for someone to expect to watch the same thing they watched a month prior.

Further to this, a lot of that has to do with licensing issues. FFXIV does not have to concern themselves with licensing issues. The reason why a glamour item costs extra is not because they had to pay some other company licensing rights to put it in their game.

Right, which is why FFXIV doesn't have to remove items from the game every month. The only ones they take out are the purely cosmetic seasonal ones (which makes sense), and they provide you with a way to get them after the season's over.

I guess what I should say is that Netflix really isn't the best service to compare to this.

I wasn't comparing the service as much as comparing the payment models.

As for your other items, i have arguments, but i feel we're just beating a dead horse.
