    Would you want account progression?

    Right now this is about the only MMORPG out there with no account progression. That is any mount, title, minion or achievement you make is bound to your character.

    Personally I would love to see this changed, though I understand there are engine limitations preventing it right now... Although I really wish everything bought on Mogstation short of dyes, marriages, fantasias and skips were account bound.

    On the flip side some people like not having mounts or achievements on alts and genuinely enjoy the feeling of starting fresh. I can kinda get that too.

    (I also know this game doesn't encourage alts, everything is doable on one character. But you can have alts and pay a higher monthly fee for them so it's a valid question.)

    EDIT:

    To be clear my stance is it would be nice to have the following account wide:

    -Mounts
    -Minions
    -Triple Triad Cards
    -Emotes
    -Hairstyles
    -Titles (Maybe, I can go either way on this since some titles should only be on the character that earned them)
    -Mogstation Purchases (except for Eternal Bond, fantasias, dyes, story skips and level skips)

    Quicker leveling on alt characters can already be done if you roll on a server running the Road buff and if that's not fast enough, the option to skip with real money from Mogstation is there. Most games only give major skips for money, the exception being Guild Wars 2 but that game has horizontal progression and leveling is the tutorial so it's really its own thing. Leveling alt JOBS on a main is already doable with the armory bonus. If any skip should be done for alt characters on the same account it should be something like Relic, where they are able to tackle weapons with shorter grinds equivalent to your main's weapons for alt jobs and only if the main has already done everything.

    i would love account banks for glam/mounts/minions/music and so on. It gets really old having to farm stuff on multiple characters. For the most part i don't because i have too many alts and it's just not worth it to me.

    Because your character can be and do everything it's just not a big deal in this game. Quite honestly, I really don't care much as reading this post is the most thought I've ever put into it. I if I had to vote, then as long as it doesn't affect us at all or get promoted as this awesome feature that replaced something much more useful in a patch (hey we did this! be distracted by the fact we didn't add content to do this!) then sure.

    The game has bigger issues.

    Sure but the "This game has bigger issues" argument can be thrown at anything.

    In this case though adding account progression would mean fixing things like how inventory is managed in this game which is a nightmare. I think addressing that would be lovely for everyone.

    While it would be a nice thing to have it's mostly unnecessary. Since the game is specifically designed around single character progression relatively few people regularly play alts in the first place. The issue just doesn't affect the majority of players.

    I definitely agree that shared collections (and especially Mogstation items) would be great, I can also understand why it's not very high priority on the devs' to do list.

    Imo everything on the mog station should be account wide
    In a really spicy ideal world they'd also be recoverable at the calamity salvager once purchased

    Yes and yes. To be honest Square probably did me a favor. The cash shop outfits would be way more attractive if they were account wide. At least the dyeable ones would.

    Yes, double yes, and triple yes!!! If one of your characters has an achievement, title, mount, minion, hairstyle, etc., they should all have it unlocked.

    Realistically, I know that's not going to happen, but no harm in saying it would be nice while pointing out that so many other games do this kind of thing.

    I would like for every thing to be unlocked across the account with the possible exception of Ultimate-related achievements. Ultimate titles should probably remain attached only to the character that earned them.

    Yes!
    It should not be a store item!

    Perhaps, but I'd be willing to bet that the story is so long on a main that people don't have time to invest in alts in the first place.
