[Cash Shop Idea] Game Time Token

[Inori-Yuzuriha]

It still does allow for a pay to win. You can just use real money to become easily rich in game, And that's why I'm against any form of RMT.

end game gear comes from raids.. so ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Never heard of sell runs? sell runs with loot? no?

-_-

great idea

the skilled playerbase shrinks and the less skilled playerbase buy gil to earnt rare gear from carry runs, mounts etc etc

More gil in the system, prices drop, people buy more, eventually gil will be worthless, no one will do anything but buy gil to buy in game items, yay yippie, GREAT IDEA, no really ><

How do you "win" with gil in FFXIV? Gil won't make you a raider, gil won't lift the weekly tomestone cap, you can't buy the best gear with gil, at most you can access materia V slightly faster than other people and even then the DPS you gain from materia is very low, I forgot the actual number but it was something like less than 3%....

The game is a lot more than about End Gear, for example:

- Want a big FC/Personal house: Why not Sell Cash-Shop items and use money to buy the house directly. Very fair to the other FCs who were worked their butt off collecting gils trying to buy that nice house that you have earned doing nothing in game for it.

- Got a new rare items/decos to be sold or bought on the marketboard? Why bothering with a normal price when you know Cash-Shop items sellers can afford for artificially overprice. Screw the regular gils earners..

Etc..

How do you "win" by obtaining a house, rare vanity or decorations? Following your logic the cash shop is already pay to win because it already sells exclusive vanity and exclusive furniture.

I'll ju$t $pend my money on game time for my friend. Becau$e people $uddenly went from hating the Ca$h $hop to making $ugge$tion$ on what to add next. What in the $ane hell i$ going on, guy$? $eriou$ly.

This is different, the sub tokens would be available to anyone who wants to buy them through the marketboard, there's no potential content being taken out of the game to gate behind a paywall, this is both a way to curb RMT and benefit both players who would buy the tokens and who would sell the tokens, while still giving the money to SE instead of 3rd party sellers, all without adding extra gil to the economy.
