The lack of gil sinks

[sharknado]

Mainly aiming at the hypercasual crowd who logs in to do the MSQ/roulette, chat a little, and play a bit with their glamours, not much more.

If they aren't doing anything besides that now they won't anyway. And not like roulette and MSQ is bad for some income

That's the point, MSQ+roulette over some time is enough to buy most things these players would be interested in, so there's less of an incentive to do more.

If there was some harder incentive for more players to for example have combat retainers and put leather on MB the market would just crash or do it sooner than a bit later. If you move gil from roulette to something else then it's just a pointless new system intended to generate a bit of gil without any other purpose. And if you move it from roulette to for example tribes then you just pushing focus from one content to another for no apparent reason. Why people can't play how and what they want? Not everyone wants to gather, craft, do retainers for profits or buy excess stuff when they have other options.

I think you're misunderstanding what I'm saying. I'm saying that XIV should offer more tradeable cosmetic stuff per patch and some options that remove gil from circulation while giving a benefit to the player. People would be able to keep doing what they already do just fine, they'd just have more available things to aim for.
I edited my post to make it clearer. I want the mogstation trade post to be expensive, not everything else.
