If SE is taking away my hard work...

I respect you so much for that post, taking in consideration for what is being said and clearly defining a very good argument for both, thank you. Your number 5 is very vital, it is the reason people like the OP are panicking.

The number 5 detail is a useless point in this argument. While, yes, more information is helpful...it doesn't do anything for this issue. Everybody is freaking out over player controlled prices, which Square-Enix has absolutely no control over. There's no lack of information, it's just people panicking because they don't like change.

Another thing people seem to forget is price gouging. Every single time a new item has been released, it's sold at a huge mark-up. I remember buying a Red Cobalt Cuirass for about 500k when it was first released. That item is NOT worth that price now, because of how easy it is to obtain materials...but at the time, every single item used in that recipe was priced super high because of demand.

Everyone needs to stop, take a breath...and remember that this stuff is not new to online games at all and things work out in time.
