Really? They put Shadowkeeper on the Mog Station?

This should be FREE, Square Enix. Why do they insist on putting popular mounts after popular mounts behind shit no one wants to do or make it $30? Who are the developers who made this so expensive? After Cruise Chaser why did you do this again?

Square Enix you better listen to your paying customers who paid $80 just to play Shadowwalker. You're going TOO FAR.

This is literally consumer abuse and I just filed a report to the Better Business Bureau, so get ready to receive another one-star review.

Well, listen, they always need money. AAA games cost a huge amount of money and an army of devs, and other trades. (People grossly underestimate the cost of a video game these days, which runs into the hundreds of millions of dollars.) To avoid selling the game at an indecent price, they make up for it with Mogstation.

Personally, if it's nice, I'll take it,mounts and attires (I must have 15 attires). I realized I was a whale without realizing it, but as long as I have 2500 days of subscription and it's my main game where I always come back to it, I'm fine with it.

That said, all this is optional and cosmetic, so it's up to you to buy or not. Nobody's forcing you to buy. It's not like all those gatcha that urge you to pay by pressing on your frustration.

When you consider the profits made by Gatcha Made in China (and its recently released game) and the money it brings in, I find this model relatively healthy. It's more or less a way of supporting your streamer on Twitch.

People with too much money have already pounced on day one, just to show that they can afford it without a second thought.

I admit it lacks imagination to release any boss or mobs, but whatever...


This time, I'll pass.
Put some nice Asian clothes back on, I'll take it day one, if it's well done without clipping bugs (e.g. the princess attire...)


Unlike the noisy and complaining minority of the FFXIV gaming community, Yoshi-P and his dev team are doing a pretty good job. When I see how many crappy MMOs come out with more promises than achievements. It's easy to cry foul over cosmetics.

In the end, you agree, you pay.
You don't, you don't. And it won't involve you in the problem any more than that. Except maybe when you run into the show-off who's going to afk mount/glowing stuff, but that's a worry between you and your ego.
