To Devs: Stop Shoveling Content Into the Cash Shop

[Supersnow845]

The two new outdoor furnishings are basically ALC recipes given a promotion to the online store. I think the bubbles would be a good fit as a cosmic exploration reward, but I can't see SE budging on putting story character hair and outfits as obtainable in-game.

“Promotion”

Why? Leave them as ALC crafts or like I said put them as bicolour rewards or cosmic exploration like the bubble blowing emote

The NPC hair is……..fine I guess (though I’d rather tie that to trusts) but everything else is just bleh

I'm saying maybe someone designed it for new craftable furniture in 7.2 until one of the higher-ups saw it and said "nah let's make it a store item."

It not content, it only carrot stick. Like how chaotic is made to have hairstyle and mount as a carrot stick for the content.

Defending MTX in a sub based game that also has a 2 yearly upfront buy in in place of actual content is the real sad cringe here

Why are people karens for not wanting a cash shop in a game you pay monthly and have to buy expansions every 2 years. The things we are getting in the cash shop should be added in game from various content but we have people who willingly buy and defend a cash shop in a subscription based mmo. Cash shops should only exist in free to play mmo games since those games rely on it to survive wow and ff14 doesn't need a cash shop to survive.

It's extra money. And people are willing to pay extra money.

What happened to the supposed increased rewards we are supposed to get in dawntrails content. All I see is more content put on cash shop at a faster rate then ever before with hardly any long term grinds in game and not much increase in rewards from content. We are stuck with longer and longer patch cycles with nothing to contain players during patches and a cash shop getting more than ever. So we should just accept cash shop getting more and more at an increased rate while we wait 8 months to a year to get content to do in game that will keep players in game longer.
