I couldn't care less if it was cash shop or in game.


But if it was cash shop, I wouldn't complain about it. Considering how much FUNDING Bloodstorm has compared to Heavensward, you shouldn't be complaining either.

I'm still waiting for ARM/LTW to get the recipe to make these. If we can make the Wootz set then we sure as heck make these. This game also needs a lot more capes.

Well, since we seem to be going to Gyr Abania in Stormblood, getting sets like those is a possibility...

Budget for Stormblood has not yet been confirmed to my knowledge (and no, the one person posting about it in the forums without a link to a source is not confirmation), so difficult to draw conclusions about the benefit of the cash shop to the actual game.

It was literally the first thing they talked about at Las Vegas FanFest, that Stormblood has triple the budget of Heavensward. Something like $36 million. I have no idea if any of that has to do with cash shop funds, but the budget itself is not in question.

Oh cool. They actually said those words? Whenever it has been brought up people have said that the triple budget thing came from a Japanese stockholders report that nobody could link to.

Yeah they did say the amount and such lol and he did say it was thanks to the cash shop...kinda.

I mean if that's really true that's cool...but id still like to see more DoH glamour recipes..gives me something to do in game heh

No he didn't. They never said any of that at the keynote, the lvie letter, nothing. We all have t he archive footage and I even just rewatched it. It's never been stated. The only budget related thing that was brought up was "for the first time we are going to reinvest some of our profits back into the game" don't fall for "just believe me", I did once

"for the first time"?
Does that mean they weren't getting any of the profits to use for ffxiv previously?

:/

it could also have something to do with the finished developement of FFXV, so resscources are free to spend elsewhere.

That seems to be the jist of what that announcement was about. FFXIV was only being devved with the money they set aside for it. Anything else over the 12 million probably went to other projects and not a penny less. But hey server upgrades! Too bad we don't know how much theyve actually been assigned
