This is just appalling

Blizzard's Shop
ESO's Shop

You know whats also interesting? That WoW started their cash shop one year earlier than SE and a long way into their game cycle too, yet they have barely anything in there! Compare this with SE cash shop, that has way more items in this even excluding all the seasonal stuff. I also would be kinda interested in knowing when WoW updated their cash shop the last time and how often they do that.

About the prices: Yes every mount in WoW costs more than our mounts but unlike a lot of our mounts they are all account bound. Lets say I have four alts in WoW I will pay the price for the mount once. If I have the same amount of alts in FF14 I will have to buy it four times. Suddenly its more expensive in FF14. If you only play one character than it will be cheaper but the question remains: Why make those mounts that are at the same time often just reskins of existing ones character bound? Why not account bound?

Lets not forget that you can earn all the Wow items by playing the game since you can simply buy the currency through ingame coins. Heck you can even buy playtime through ingame coins..nothing like that is possible in FF14

Also another problem is: SE prices vary a lot, especially for mounts and glamour stuff. WoW has the same prices for each category so you will know what to expect. Yet we have cash shop glamour including the hair which is cheaper than a two-pieces set without hair. How does that make sense?

And why do they have to charge so much for the seasonal stuff? One cant use the argument of "its created only for cash shop so they need to earn money" because those were ingame event items, so they already existed before they were put into the cash shop thus no extra money was needed for that step. Yet the items cost quite a bit and are one single piece too..why not make the price something like 0.50 €? You will give people the chance to get them again (even though they could have easily put them ingame..) and you might earn a little bit with each sold item..the prices right now are just pure greed..wanting that amount of money for an old seasonal item that can even be destroyed in some cases..

Big question on those that are growing sick of such threads: Why are you even posting in it? Why not just simply ignore it? You are not forced to read through that so why feel the need to take your time to post something, thus keeping the thread alive too?

Since SE is a business I will look forward to them putting stuff in there that some might consider Pay to win. I dont care about that stuff so its fine right? Lets sell houses there too since its nothing for endgame. Its not like people have different goals about their games thus someone might have glamours/pets/mounts as their ingame goal which they cant reach if they dont pay further money. But heck its only stuff with stats that is a no go right?

I mean in the end it could be worse right? Next to not getting the event items ingame the next time the event start, they could have taken away the rights to sell those items on the MB or even take away the function to be purchased again or swapped for the other gender...oh wait..
