but how can more money be a bad thing?

How can it be a good thing if it's hypothetically not going towards the game itself, as I explained above it's very possible (Given how game publishers have been this last decade) that high sales of micro-transactions are actually hurting the games development rather than assisting it.

This is the same company that has split parts of it's games off as "DLC" Look at Dues Ex, hell they are splitting the FFVII reboot into multiple "Episodes" so they can get more money out of it instead of making a single coherent game.

There are tons of ways money doesn't equal quality, especially in the corporate world.

but more money = more of everything

"It's better than nothing"

Yeah more money = more of everything. We obviously have a differing opinion on the industry as a whole let alone the state of FFXIV or the cash shop.
