    So they bring up a relevant point of what another mmo does better and you jump to something completely irrelevant to game design decisions.

    it's good feedback, more of a contribution to this thread than you made anyways.

    people are complaining about monetization in here.. my word, have to buy a fantasia for a new face.. and then someone brings up "can do it for free in WoW"

    thats nice and all, but they do a TON of things badly in WoW, as well as monetizing the crap out of every last thing they can, mounts for instance, then they also tie a mount to a 6 month sub, pretty much wasting time and money.

    does Wow do some things well? of course they do. like player housing.. oh wait, scratch that... just very tired of the whole "well WoW does this"

    point being, two different philosophies, the FFxiv devs played it back in the day, took some good direction on what to do after the trainwreck that was 1.0

    I am all for getting the things that work , if they can still find something. but complaining about a couple dollars to change something like your face? unless you do it weekly.. why is that an issue?

    which is a valid point

    has literally nothing to do with the point the poster made and you're using that and the earlier thing you said to immediately try to shut it down because 'wow bad'

    nothing wrong with taking a look at what other games have to offer and possibly copy it? I guess XIV should go back to ho-

    oh so copying some things is ok, but not things like free race/gender/face changes, which would hugely benefit the playerbase, be it indecisive players, RPers and whatnot, because SE would lose money, that's not ok? why not simply make it cost gil instead?

    I'd be all about being able to make major changes to characters outside of race/clan and gender using gil. That would give people more liberty to make changes they want without consideration for RL money and would also take a load of gil out of circulation P.D.Q.

    Yeah, it's a considerably larger financial investment if you want to change your race, faction or even server. They all cost around the same I believe, which is $25.
