    The glamour doesn't appeal to me (I havent changed from my Feast Season 1 Top 100 glamour since I got it), but I got the emote.

    Everything in the cash shop is optional, if you dont have the expendable income to pay for it, then don't pay for it, it's really that simple. There is so much available to glamour this far into the game's lifespan, there's no reason to be so bent out of shape about a brand-new set added to the Mogstation. If it bothers you that much, get a job, work an extra shift, etc. to justify paying for it. You dont need to have everything, that's ridiculous.

    Oh boy, i'm so tired of reading this.
    That's not the point!
    The point is, that SE should add such items in this subscription based game itself. As loot, as recipe or whatever.

    We all get that it is optional and that we don't have to buy it. We got it, really!
    I could buy it, my wallet could handle this. But should i? Hell no!
    SE is getting really greedy and we should not support that.

    Then vote with your wallet and don't buy it.

    Yes, that's the only way to "vote" against it.
    But i would like to encourage people to think about the consequences of their actions (buying stuff from the cash shop)
    instead of just beeing like: "I WANT THIS! I WANT THAT! BUY BUY BUY O_O
    As we can see, it leads to more and more items added and rising prices. I can't imagine that is what the people want.

    I for one do not mind supporting the game by buying the occasional thing here and there but the prices are to high and living in Canada with our dollar gone to hell it's a lot worse for me. Since the beginning of May I have spent out $325 on the Stormblood expansion, another 18$ for sub / $130 for the 3 Fan festivals and now another 22$ for this outfit. I know its my choice to do this and I will live with it but in the end it cost me $500 for a game update, a few in game items and a small statue and art book and that is way to much.

    Because value and worth are entirely subjective. People determine what is worth their money and what is not. If SE goes too far those people will stop buying, it's really that simple. It is not really the customer's job to restrict their purchasing something they want for the sake of a greater good. There are things in the real world where the logic applies, but here, I really don't see it. It's still a game and virtual items at the end of the day.

    Thinking, good joke.

    The majority of the populace in most modern countries support politics and systems that only benefit the top 10% of the income curve. Most people do not act in their own best interest, they act against it, as crazy as it seems.

    I like how you're basically treating everyone as if they've got a single digit IQ. I'm pretty sure everyone knows the consequences of buying an $18 dollar ingame outfit... it means more support for their MMO.

    As for the fact that it's priced too high... it really isn't. If it were $50, that'd be nuts. But if it really is too much money, just don't buy it.

    Proof? Statement that cash shop goes back into game has no proof. We are not privileged to SE investments.
