    for a year, would you rather be secretly filmed at random moments and have the footage uploaded to your social media or loose $100 when ever you said a curse word?

    People like you are the reason the mog station has gotten so out of hand these last few years.

    All jokes I would gladly pay 15 to 50 bucks for a road to 70 buff that I can use on an existing character. Road to 70 would be awesome to level crafters.

    Yes leveling is easy but can be tedious and great thing about cash shops they can be used to offer pay for convenience options for those willing to pay.

    It is an extra option, for those willing to pay. I get it goes against the original intent to a degree, but with cross server MB, linkshells, grouping server choice does not really matter outside of a select few things, and if those things are still of a concern to someone then they will seek a lower pop / new server.

    Actually it's not. What it does in reality is encourage developers to create excessive grinds in their game so that people are incentivized to take the cash option instead of putting up with the grind. We see it all the time now in full retail products.

    FFXIV is a full retail product with a subscription fee. We don't need a free-to-play economy on top of that. Stop asking to pay extra for things.

    Here is the thing the cash shop is here and it is here to stay. Sure people will want to fight it, but they cannot stop it. As it stands the cash shop as cosmetic and convenience options. Grinds will always be a thing in gaming especially MMO's and tbh providing an extra convenience on the cash shop would be awesome. Truth be told I rather they just add DoH and DoL jump potions but I personally know that is a far fetched dream so road to 70 buff is best thing.

    You are free to have your pov but even if grinds are made longer due to convenience options point remains they are still pay for convenience options. Also not an sale an aspect of need, simply a desire.

    Those are the easiest classes to level though... You don't need potions for them.

    Never been about need, as mentioned leveling itself is not hard but can be tedious but instead of asking them to make leveling up easier asking for a convenience option to be added at a cost would be nice.

    Overall cannot speak for anyone else but personally I have found DoW and DoM jobs far easier and quicker to level up, yet we have options to bypass that all together at the very least a purchasable buff would require some player input.

    I created a character in May on Adamantoise and got the buff. In 3 months I got all my crafters/gatherer's to 80 as well as 3 combat classes just doing MSQ, class quests, and leves. Probably could have done more considering how much of the MSQ content I did while overleveled. God I miss that sweet, sweet XP so much I've had withdrawal for the last 2 months.

    I'd buy a potion for sure, but I doubt we'd see it.
