Put the Chinese dress as a in game reward

[Lunafreya]

It is really stupid that the thing is 18 dollars to begin with. If SE really appreciated the begging for the dress, they would have put it in game and not on the cash shop. It just shows how much money they are getting away with right now. It is you pay 18 dollars for a dress that should be 3 or you are out of luck. I'm sorry but why are the prices so god damn high? It is a virtual dress. I can get a whole map pack in a shooter for 20 dollars because it is worth the amount of content but for one little dress, I have to pay 18 dollars. Just why? This is a complete rip off. The most expensive costumes in games are usually 3 dollars at best. I'm very disappointed.

Because people will pay for it.

Is it possible since the item was not created by SE, and was created by the local korea/chinese companies - that SE has had to increase the price for this item due to payments required for the IP?

I agree with you, outsourcing designs can be costly.

What caused the ridiculous inflation!?...

The first sets they added to the Mog Shop were $5 and they're some of the best looking ones!...

The latest sets began to increase in price without increasing in quality as well, after all I would expect to get what I pay for and I'm really NOT impressed by their work!...

Remake the whole game in 4K or at least add a 4K texture pack and then I might consider buying more stuff!...

FFXIV models are absolutely outdated, just watch characters feet which are poorly done and compare them with other games like Blade and Soul and the difference will astonish you, you can watch a video here: click to see

I don't really like that game and I haven't played it but I least I noticed they do have nice character models with toes in their feet!...

Then give everyone their 18 bucks back if it's going to be an in game item.

Not high really. A bit lower than that in Chinese server (19 USD). The discount should not be huge or Chinese players would shout at their agent.
Anyway you can keep your 18 USD if you think it not worthy; if most people agree with you, SE may do some adjustment to rescue the poor sale.

Considering how many people have bought it. I doubt they will change the price. Was in xephatol and the AST, monk, and BLM all had it on.

All exclusive stuff for other versions as I posted in other threads of a similar nature are designed programed and created by the same dev's that work on ALL versions. The companies who run the KR and CN versions are just front companies to allow easy access to closed markets and provide localized support and marketting and that is all.

Very much this. They showed the development team working on things for the chinese version (behemoth boss in specific) during a tour of their work space at the SE HQ in Japan to the Chinese Media.





There is no developers for the KR or Chinese versions of this game. The same dev staff create all versions. The company that runs this game in China is simply a front company and marketing agent they have absolutely nothing to do with development. I am surprised just how much misinformation there is out there for the Chinese version.

I think that would have been a perfect moment for the facepalm emote.
