Stop with the pay to win advanages for retainers, suggestions on fixes

[Vstarstruck]

Truth is not many of us cares and Japanese side prefers the feature.

What does that have to do with anything? They liked being ripped off, maybe they have more IRL money on average to toss around then here. A lot of people here are critical over making sure we get a good value of things because we know it is easy to rip people off if you do not. With the recent controversies of EA and konami, you think they would second guess releasing something like this, since people are more on edge in general from it and lootbox BS.

by that logic I could win even more by unsubbing and save myself not only time but real money... this game has no defined endgame so winning is arbitrary based on personal goals...

How in the heck did you miss the point she was saying? word twisting is real. Do you think SE is perfect and find a need to defend them?

There is something else you are missing from this, if i keep making sales, buying everything, like paying people to get everything in the game, im forever ahead, pay to win is what retainers are along with the app with paying more money to spam undercut and rule the market. You do not see the issue with one person completely owning the MB?

so then other than time/convenience what can you get in game with unlimited gil/storage that I cant?

Everything, you can pay people for any kind of favor, mog shop stuff, savage clears ex clears, etc. owning an army of FCs to horde exclusive airship materials ...
You wouldn't be able to have everything, like a dedicated MB player can have. I am sure if someone wanted to, they can bride for PvP wins, after all we are talking about having the goal of having cap retainers across 8 chrs to be over 25 bil yes? since 25 bil is the limit pushing of base sub. Everything has a price...

I made this thread for one reason only, the app pushed the pay to win concept too far when it comes to MB advantage, so I am done giving them a free pass on that. base sub should be even with extra payers, this means the app shouldn't be allowed to list and sell items, and past 2 retainers shouldn't be able to venture and list items.

I love this thread:

Square enix, you where the chosen one! The players said you would rule the gaming market from not having cash grab schemes, not joining EA, Konami, and activision!
