It's so Awesome to See All the Cool Stuff Are Now in Cashshop.

I'm not a cash shop hater, but damn that price tag is excessive.

The bike with alpha is so cute! The price.. not so much.

I'm sure there will be a lot of players thrilled by the new items, but personally I don't find them that interesting.

Also, cash shop revenue goes back into FFXIV. It's your subscription that's going to support FFXVII.

Did Yoshi-P confirm recently that this was still the case? Because he said a LOT of things 10 years ago that are no longer true today.

This stuff most change a lot based on meta . Subs doesn't grow forever.

I hope they add tomestone and housing plot too!
Imagine:
Spend $5 for 1000 tomes
$50 for large individual plot
$75 for FC plots!

Come on, you know most of our shop was available for 'free' during in-game events. Some prices are higher than market tendecy and others (like emotes) are low. Content exclusive for the shop must be lower than 20%.

I hate cash shop on a sub-based game.

I hate the price tag of cash shop items because I find them unreasonable.

But I’m still going to buy them.

The sky can fall, the earth can rot, the world can burn, but my Hrothgar must look fabulous.

2-player mount costing more than 4-player mount, and almost same as 8-player mount.

What a time to be alive.

Nothing new with this, it's just getting worse overtime.

Why would you only rely on sub money requiring you to make enough content to keep people busy/happy when you can just milk small spender for a fraction of the work ?

Not that I disagree but the justification of tying passenger size to price is already nonexistent. Even a relation of effort invested in making the mount with multiple passengers vs price on the store is loose at best, as seen in no clearer example than the 8 player lunar whale.

[LaylaTsarra]

It affects players when the in-game stuff are pale in comparison, it's not fun to play the game anymore and time to unsub, action will speaks louder.
And that's what I will do, enjoy the game!

What is so cool about it? The price is a bit excessive but do you really want to run around with alpha next to all the time? For that price the mount should be a true 2 seater. Personally I rarely buy mogstation items other than skips for my alts and a few basic emotes like dote and songbird.

Edit: Oh it is 2 person but I guess the second person sits behind the driver with alpha a permanent addition?
