And the last bastion of non-Mog Station items gets put on Mog Station

[Beckett]

Three new Mog Station-exclusive orchestrion rolls have been added. Thanks Square-Enix, for making one more list incompletable without spending real world money, and giving me one less motivation to keep playing this game.

None of those rolls appear by default on the orchestrion list, similar to orchestrion rolls from events you've missed - which have already been put on the mog shop, so this isn't really anything new.

If anything, this is the one thing I'll forgive on the mog-shop since it's the orchestrial version. It wasn't made specifically for this game and the orchestra that performed deserves royalties.

Do you really need them ASAP tho? They no mount/minion/glam/emote. Ill get them whenever they are on discounte. Is really no major inconvenience.

There is no "incompleteable list" because these appear on their own tab, and only the ones you own appear. It's the same tab as the orchestrion rolls from one of the music albums. For all I know the tab might not even appear if you don't have any of these orchestrion rolls. But it's similar to the event tab, as BillyKaplan pointed out, which also lists only the rolls you have and doesn't number them or reveal the ones you're missing.

I'm going to second what others are saying and suggest that this is probably one of the best Mog Station implementations. I wish other components of the game would have 'checklists' that invisibly excluded Mog Station purchases, too (a proper Glamour Log; a Minion and Mount checklist). That way I could feel completionist-y without actually contributing to an atrocious cash grab.

On the other hand, it's also a troubling first step down a slippery slope, as is everything with the Mog Station. Right now, it's orchestral versions of in-game tracks, something not found anywhere within the game; will it stay that way? Or will we end up having to pay for certain boss themes in future Raids, as an example? I'm personally quite certain that IF this happens, there'll be a large group of players defending it, too: "thank goodness, it was sooooo hard to get the drops before", "it's not like Orchestrion rolls are needed to get the best gear, it's not P2W", "this funds more original music creation", and other such bullshit.

So, I'm of mixed feelings. Still, of all the various reasons to boycott the Mog Station, and to fault SE for its creation - and there are many such reasons - this is a decidedly weak one.

Putting music rolls on the mogstation is just dumb and another way for SE to make petty cash. Music rolls should be loot drops or something we can purchase on the in game MB. The emotes are a stretch as well. I remember one emote costing from 7-12$ on mogstation. All that for a emote? #AllGreed


Emotes are so meaningless and should be gettable in game. If you do put emotes on HSN...sorry I mean mogstation, emotes should cost no less than 1-2$. Make some mounts like that fps dropping carbuncle mount gettable via the Gold Saucer mgp like the Fenrir mount.



I could go into a whole vent about how mogstation is becoming a shopping network and pointless stuff they add on there that could be in game rewards, but I'll save it for another time.

Thank god its on the ca$h $hop, it's not as if I had a truckload of achievment points covered in dust in this game.

I feel like they're actually three of the more reasonably priced items available on the Mog Station. I, personally, don't mind throwing money at Square Enix when it comes to cosmetics - it's unfortunate but in today's gaming world it's pretty much standard to have to do as much if you're a collector. I was actually expecting them to show up as part of the upcoming soundtrack.

I do think it'd be preferable for them to have been tied to achievement points, though. Especially since we ended up getting a revamp of the achievement point system recently...
