Really? They put Shadowkeeper on the Mog Station?

Uh guys, it’s just another troll thread. Just report and move on. Nothing to see here.

Honestly, why do you even play this game if you’re poor? The devs work so hard to make all this content for free (plus purchase price) (plus subscription) that I wish I could buy them a coffee. Why not support the developers? This game is a luxury service. If you don’t have the money, don’t play. Also, you don’t have to buy it. It’s there because people want to have it. Why not let people do what they want? It doesn’t affect you in any way. We’re still better than WoW which has WoW Tokens. Oh, and unlike Blizzard (all the money goes to sex harassment cases), our money is for a good cause. That’s right: FF16. Did you play the demo? We did, and we all loved it. It’s going to be GOTY and possibly the GOAT. All that money will be worth it. If you don’t buy store mounts, that’s fine, but don’t complain when you run out of games to play.

If a game must have a cash shop, then mounts is exactly the sort of things that should be sold there - looks nice, sells well, but nobody actually needs them.

So true. If you want content, you gotta pay for it. Our sub fee isn’t nearly enough to cover the cost of making a game as great as FF16.

Once again, like every time one of these threads come out. The new mounts and outfits sold on the store are made by a third party company, not CBU3. If there was no store, then the exclusive items on there would not exist.

Well... no, CBU3 does indeed make these outfits and mounts, most far in advance or prototypes for possible ingame rewards, however they are contracted with a seperate team in SE that operates the cashshop along with couple other companies for the China and Korea. So likely they just dig in a pool of aleady made mounts and toss them to the cash shop folks to put up whenever its time to add something. I suspect a certain yellow bud of ours might be involved with our possible Blu mount reward in 6.45, if we do indeed get one.

Yeah it's pretty sad honestly. I can understand emotes or meme mounts like the Fat Chocobo, but it's pretty depressing to see raid bosses being a store mount. Raid boss mounts should come from the raid full stop. Imagine if the Nier hair or Nier glam was locked behind a $30 paywall rather than the 24 man.

Imagine if the Nier glam was locked behind a $30 paywall rather than the 24 man.

That could be a general improvement, if we are being honest. Less catgirls using 2b leggins? Yes please.

True but I'm a coomer at heart. That would work against my self-interests. peepoThink

I'll probably buy this one.
Was already sad that they locked the Axolotl mount behind savage.

[Glenfiddich]

Imagine actually defending this.

There's no defense for this growing practice and I'm surprised I see people in this thread doing just that as if it's okay.

You are absolutely right.
I always ask myself. Is bootlicking a fetish or a Character trait?

[Xaruko_Nexume]

That thing is so fking ugly

I agree. I don't actually have a problem with cash shops in general, but this item I would not use if it were free.

Mao just gots doggie. Mao reportings doggie has no emotes. Mao sad. Mao prefers Megashiba.

[MrSigy]

To give my opinion:
I am sad that this iconic raidpixel is introduced as a paying mount, the same thing that happened to cruise chaser,
I have never paid for a mount of a outfit every in this game and the only one I got was gifted to me by a friend for my birthday.

I continue this trend throughout all the games that I play,
So my viewpoint is naturally that I also do not support it.

I am sad about this and about ffxvi being locked to ps5 for a year
