Garlond GL-IS pricing: how is no one talking about this?

This right here is why things have gotten so bad both on the mogstation and in-game. Why make quality content when you can just put things on the mogstation and a handful of whales will buy it so many times that it's still worth screwing over 99.9% of the playerbase?

People not buying off the mog station isn't going to magically improve the quality of ingame items. If anything it wouldn't exist in either space. No content in game and nothing on the store. It's an entirely separate team that makes the shop products. It's not going to suddenly increase resources for ingame content by removing the store.

Actually yes, people not buying off the mog station would "magically improve the quality of in game items" because they wouldnt make items just for people not to buy them, they'd have to put them in game or leave them in a decrepit store with no one buying the items, which means they would eventually end up in the game as in game reward.

It's delusional to think the items on the store would find a happy home somewhere in the game. Would some things like mounts would? Maybe. However a lot of those nice outfits wouldn't have been made in the first place as they were made with the entire intention to sell them. Also we don't know what all the store funding is for. If it results in employees not being hired to cut costs then no, content is not being improved. This tlrabbit hole is to deep for anyone to correctly figure out. You're allowed to be upset at the lack of content in the game. You're allowed to be upset at the price of the items and the frequency of them. But don't take it out on others because we decided to buy.
