Dont Lock Emotes To Extremely Exensive Merchandise

There is no way most people can afford this.

I have one, and there are bills to pay. Do you pay for gas, electricity, rent, and water? I can barely afford my subscription. Most Americans are struggling right now.

I feel the need to point out that OP is happy give a lil' sob story about Financial hardship to back up his emote woes only to see he bought access to the Fanfest stream in another thread.

You can't be struggling for money that much if you're blowing cash to buy Tidus glamours and Rikku minions, surely.

All of my friends aren't struggling, maybe it's time to get a higher paying job? Or move to area with a lower cost of living?

I almost forgot how childish this community can be, thanks for remind me.

You probably still live with parents so you can spend your income on in-game items, and then you come talk about getting a job, funny.

What world do you guys live in?

I live on my own, I don't work full time and go to school. I drop $150 on almost any alpha/cbt pack that comes out for MMOs. I think I've purchased every every $150 pack Archeage's had out. If you game, you already know things are expensive now so save. I keep $300 saved just for video games alone.

This effects me too. I have a job, my hubby has a job. 2 cars, 1 house, a rental property, and kids. All these things are more important to spend money on then this and in turn put them out of reach for us.

Like having a job suddenly makes a $100 emote a good purchase...

Seriously $100 for statue +emote is so far beyond what I think the vast majority is willing to pay. Say .1% of the players pay $100, or they could price it at $1 and 50% of players buy it. In which scenario does SE make more money? (Of course, referring to just the emote not the statue. There's way less demand for the statue than the emote, ironically)

But it's SE's product, I'll just do what I always do when I'm not happy with the price of something: not buy it.

Uh lol, I'm from a first world country. But with the recent brexit that has increased the value of major currencies, the odin statue costs 263 SGD here. For your info Cait sith costs 90SGD due to shipment and tax here. For every plushie I purchase I can actually get another one.

Btw for malaysians that's 800RM, that's how much two traffic officers make in a month. While I'm not really keen on this or act like I'm entitled to everything, I do think that your reasoning is illogical because you're forgetting not everyone has access to purchasing this without the means of 3rd party. Personally I do think the prices of items are alittle too much, there are too much things locked behind real money purchase (Which is well, your DLC) and it has been happening way too often.

I have a good job for a fresh graduate, in a sense I can afford the things that interests me but that doesn't mean I shouldn't empathise nor close an eye when there is something I feel is becoming unethical.
