Can Cash Shop be a bit more reasonable

There's no pleasing people on either side.

So you say, but do you truly think putting the hairstyle into the saucer at the same price of the other hairstyles would have caused any noteworthy ruckus?

No but here 's the thing.. people still would've complained. Why? Cause the other hairs wasn't in the GC. They were just given. So yes people would complain. Cause now you're making them do GC instead of just giving it to them like the other hairs were. My point still stands, there's no right answer cause no matter what they do people WILL complain. Which is why the dress should've just stayed there. But that's just me.

This is a silly thing to say. They already have a system in place for delivering new hairstyles: adding them to character creation/the aesthetician. I HIGHLY doubt people would have complained about that. I also doubt people would complain much if costumes were added to the Gold Saucer... there are already costumes there, so it makes sense.

You didn't catch what I was saying. I didn't say people would complain if they added it to the CC. Thats what they wanted. I can see people complaining if all of the hair but one was given tho and they would have to grind to get it. OH you mean like NOW? Cause thats what they DID. You don't need to take my word for it.. there's an entire thread about it. :/ You or I wouldn't complain but SOMEONE would. And that was my point... there's nothing they could do as SOMEONE or a group of someones WILL complain. It's sad yes, but it'll never stop.

People would have. Regardless of what you do, someone will always complain about something. Personally, I like to relax and walk around in the gold saucer, but I absolutely refuse to do most of the content because it's just not fun to me. I like to collect music. I was royally pissed when I found out that to get quite a few songs, I had to grind out the saucer through GATEs and cactpots. It took me roughly 5 weeks to get enough gmp to buy all of the songs. Worse, I'd really like the Gamblers set, but I have to accept I'll never have it, because I hate the associated content.

Find a friend and just do the Triple Triad challenges together. I was able to easily get the costume items I want from the GC doing that. I'm with you in that I'm not particularly fond of the other mini games, but at least my husband and I can have fun doing TT matches against each other and pretty quickly accrue the needed points.

That said, I much prefer items being obtained from content in-game than being asked to shell out extra money on top of a sub in order to get something.

I hate TT. Pretty much the only cards I have are the one and two stars that drop from content and that is it. In order for me to actually win at triple triad, I'd have to beg them to use a deck of nothing but 1 star cards and pray that they'll let me cheese a victory. And still, it's the principle of the thing. Why should I grind content I don't like doing for stuff I want? The only content I 'sorta' enjoy are GATEs, but I can't farm them on end because I'm always running battle content.

Honest question, what do you think is worse? Grinding for gear you'll use for five minutes then throw on your retainer and forget about, or paying a pittance so you can have the item you want and still do the content you enjoy?

They're not asking us to pay a pittance. They're asking us to pay for every single character we want an outfit on at prices rather higher than other MMOs sell them for. On top of the $15/mo we give them already.

So yes, I prefer getting gear in-game.

(By the way, you can just have a friend throw the match to you. It's not that hard.)
