[Spoiler] The Rising Mogstation Update

Due to the lack of transparency I can logically argue that cash shop sales could even be detrimental to content development of FFXIV. Arguing 5 hat high cash shop sales encourage them to cut more content as shop 3xlusive and 5 hat consumers show they are ok with the rate and style of content we are getting.

i could always argue that if cash shop items weren't being bought that the items just wouldn't be put in the game at all, why put time and money into something that isn't going to make them money.
they already have lots of glamour and other items in game so just save the money from the team that would be needed to do it all together.

but yea in the end its all only theories and personal thoughts on the situation as a whole based on how we each feel about it.

Just because it's good for Square ENIX does not mean it's good for FFXIV.

but it does, as if the game was making bare minimum (say without or even with cash shop) they would slowly take the budget away while trying to keep as many players as they could while spending less.
