Awesome diamond dust emote

[Aivi_lo]

To be fair, Aivi, you shouldn\\'t attack people who want to buy the statue. It\\'s very tacky on your part. If they want the statue, let them have it. .

How am I attacking people who want the statue? That has nothing to do with me lol. I don\\'t want to guilt people out of anything or their pleasures. What people have is nothing to do with me. What I\\'m saying is I don\\'t like the fact that this emote is locked behind that expensive statue, I don\\'t think it\\'s a great decision community wise and it makes no business sense.
I said that people have different perspectives on what is expensive, for example i consider someone who has the disposable income to spend on this rich, but someone who could not afford the monthly sub may consider me rich.
Anyway, tacky Aivi signing out, hope you have a very merry Christmas! ^^

Sure, once I receive the statue, I d probably sell the emote back.

Standard mog station emote price?

[sarcasm] Dear SE, please remove all in-game bonus items from all your merchandised to included but not limited to books, CDs, Figures, Plush toys, Blankets, or anything else because it's upsetting a select few. [/sarcasm]

Better?

Yes! Exactly ^^.... Just without the sarcasm

I did not buy the Odin statue, but I believe the code is account-wide. Most promotional codes are; that's why it's so odd the Eorzea Symphony code is not.

I'm fairly sure it was account wide too. I might have to create a new alt to check. But seriously, there is no reason any item code tie to physical merchandise should be character-specific imo... Imagine some of the players with active alts purchasing the statue simply for the emote only to find out that it's character-specific. Well, it's pure speculation, but I hope it's account-wide, like seriously.

No, due to the high demand it ll sell for more.

It should be account wide...though at the same time if it is not then I would like to think that anyone with multiple characters would have a 'main' character that they hoard stuff that isn't account bound on.

The sad irony is that a lot of the people complaining about the emote being tied to the statue would continue to complain if it had been a Mogstation purchase, saying that it should have been included in the game for free.

Well yes before all of that I would have wished for this to be ingame. (Like defeat Shiva x time or something like that) But I do understand that it would not be coming ingame after it got attached to the statue. So no I dont believe that many would complain after it was known that it would also be put on the mog station.

Honestly if the statue would be available all the time people could have saved their money for this over time..but since its probably limited again you will simply not get it if you are not fast enough. So using it as a incentive to sell the statue is just bad..I mean if nobody wants to buy a limited statue without the emote then you kinda have to question if its too expensive..because stuff like that tend to sell just because its limited..

well, can't blame me for trying. I'm curious as to what the bidding would go to, just for the emote

Unfortunately for many people 'feedback' results in the masses simply demanding that they be granted access to everything. No solid reasons are usually given beyond variants of the phrase 'Gimme, Gimme!'

I would like to think that millions of people supporting a game with their hard earned cash would be enough but apparently not. Do people really forget that? Its pretty clear the road SE is starting to travel and its not in favor of the the people who have supported their game all these years.

None of the things sold impact gameplay with the exception of the job potions where you exchange money for time so we all paid for it one way or another. The game has plenty of content in it, just sounds like the things you want aren't in the 'free' portion. That sucks but you make it sound like there's absolutely nothing in the game anymore. Which has nothing to do with how much you like certain content or not.
