Why do casual players seem entitled to cosmetic items added in game?

What's keeping you from leaving now? What's keeping every other person that complained like this in the past from leaving? Put your money where your mouth is. Why should Square care about your complaints if you're just going to stay subbed anyway?

Feel free to stop parroting this bs. Just leaving doesn't provide SE with any valuable information. Maybe you should just leave the forum if you can't handle the game being criticized in the one place where the game tells you to provide feedback.

What does that even mean?



HUGE assumption. Pretty much everyone who plays the game cares about how their character looks. Just because you paint with broad strokes and assume everyone thinks like the 3 streamers you listed does not make it so.



There's lots of items in this game that I want but chose not to engage with the content for. I love the PVP glamours but I hate the content. You don't see tons of people complaining that it should be available for everyone, people just accept it as such. PVP is a perfect example because the Cloud hair exists.

<Un-dying, Reviving LAUGHING>

YOU CLEARLY DO NOT EVEN PVP.

Cause we PvPrs are tired as hell about FOMO and the fact that past Rewards Haven't Returned. as alluded to in the past.

[I'm so glad T100 is dead as well, too many fn bs with all that.]

I need 23 other people to not mess up? ������. Wow, I got p1 and got tires because party’s keep breaking up. Not content, not good it’s just a nightmare

I think the problem for me is that it feels fairly arbitrary to put a hairstyle behind such niche content.

Like, if the new hairstyle was like ‘Cloud of Darkness Nappy Ass Weave’ or something I wouldn’t be bothered by it at all. Obviously that would make sense to come from this content featuring Cloud of Darkness lol.

But having a completely unrelated hairstyle added to the rewards pile? It feels like an arbitrary way to extend the content’s longevity and not an actual reward. Like they didn’t think the ‘proper’ rewards were good enough so they decided ‘hey let’s throw that unreleased hairstyle in to make more people do it!’.

But personally I disagree with using cosmetic things as ‘content bait’ when there’s no logical reason to tie the two things together. Personally I’d argue that kind of stuff should (generally) be the remit of non-battle content like Golden Saucer* since that gives it the most opportunity to be obtained by as many people as possible.

*Gold Saucer has a bit of a monopoly on cosmetic items but just an example lol.

Raiders should be allowed to style all over everyone else.

Isn’t that what the armour and 2X mount are for though?

Give them a bit of everything. They're doing the work for it.

We've reached peak crazy now that there's one guy in this thread saying in game macros for crafting is cheating.

I mean you can just buy it with gil, it'll drop in price pretty quick given you only need to clear around twice for it.

Do you realize that is just FC? You know everyone doesn't have access to subs, right? Only FCs with houses can use subs.

Make an alt. Set up an FC. Buy a small house (small FC houses are incredibly easy to get).
