    Why? It is because it avoids dumb stuff like 2000 roulette.

    Well, you shouldn't be rewarded for being a mentor tbh. It's a reward for being helpful, not something you have to mindlessly farm.


    Personally I like stuff like this in the cash shop because 1- Things like gear and cosmetic items do not affect my performance in game, and are just visual enhancements; 2- It gives them a little extra income, so they can continue to develop this game that I personally love, and would like to see live more than a couple of years. I refuse to pay for retainers, because we keep getting more items yet no extra space to store them. I don't even hoard things, and have to drop stuff every day cause I'm at the limit.

    Exactly. That's what I was implying. You shouldn't be rewarded for being a mentor. They are trying to motivate you to keep mentoring, but offering rewards only draws the bad kind of mentors in.

    Ah, I misinterpreted what you really meant, my apologies.

    Fixed your second point for you. I love how people love to toss that around yet have no proof that the money from the cash shop goes into the developmental budget. Maybe people do not realize how successful SE really is...

    We know for sure SQEX isn't injecting any more money into FFXIV. Do you know what percentage of our subs go to dev budget?
    I think we don't either. We can only assume more money means the dev team gets a higher budget, whatever % of the share they get.

    Better idea guys.

    How about they make quests and completing them allows you to purchase such and such attire on Mog Station!?

    Keh keh keh.

    I'll see myself out.

    Huh? WHY? So you'll have to do a quest just to unlock that? THat's........ no. If people are asking for skins to be put in the store cause they hate the grind why are you asking for them to make it so they have to grind? Do you hate the idea THAT much for skins? Damn.
