Online Store is Getting Worse!

[GTK0HLK]

while I agreed with a person's reasoning.
it has nothing to do with the way a MMO cost, price, and worth works.
Let alone the cost for the devs would mean the amount they pay their workers<most likely salaried> and then the cost to keep the lights on, and etc.
which doesn't work.
since the items and shop don't have any sort of limitations, or production per item.
this ain't Island Sanctuary. which would make sense on how it's supposed to work.

the cost for the dev is near zero much more<than light, is to its own speed> since they paid for it all beforehand.

it's the same pipeline of content. with a fork that splits specific items to the shop. or the main game.<and can be changed at anytime. hence why seasonal also gets added. or why items that should be game drops, get shoved into the shop, or R.A.F./Callback.>

for a company with a limitless item, the best option is to get many to adopt/buy the item. some took the price. but many more than that small minority will never due to the worth they know they'd gain.

many logical, and reasonable points.
but none of that applies to the conversation of the shop prices, and it's worth vs the cost.

If anything. SE is gimped/mained on how much they sell.

and the counterpoint to change boil down to subjectives.

[personally, I wish they had two options, a higher cost Accountwide, and a slightly lower cost single. but of course the change I'll get that is low, due to those against alts for all reasons, but that's irrelevant]

$22 for the latest set which is a freaking pajama hoodie...



It's never enough for Squeenix. Even during a sale store items are insanely overpriced. I couldn't buy anything this year because the prices are just too damned high for my meager budget. How do they justify these outrageously high prices? How do people justify paying them? $42 dollars for a mount? Who has that kind of money!?

Give us a break, Squeenix.

The ball's on you to think you can talk about other people's finances. If you can't buy something; don't.

But don't go thinking you can tell me how to spend my hard earned money.

Don't buy it? Simple.

Don't come here with your sensible logic. Get out!

The financial illiteracy in this thread is mind numbing.

What's more distressing to me is that these people will vote.

I am going to assume you're talking about americans, and I wouldn't worry consider your procentage of people voting is pretty low compared to other countries.

so all the defenders of this pricing will finally say why this glam or most of the mounts casting more that what they asking from you for each patch? as you conveniently ignoring this point

I don't understand your question tbh.

I second that. This makes no sense. If anyone's ignoring any point, it's the people raging about the prices and mogstation in general.

SE doesn't charge for actual content in the game?? yes they do. monthly even.

We already know by SE's own admission that the monthly fee goes to server costs and then other departments in SE itself. Our monthly fee is paying for FF16. The mogstation gets sent back into FF14 itself.

[Renalt]

Eh. Only affects those that choose to buy.

Choose.
