Changing your character (visually) is a "Microtransaction" Are you going to tell me that people are going to P2W off of Character appearance? >.>.
I never said this was P2W, in fact I dont even care if it is, its besides the point. Although I would like to point out that this being a P2P game, whether or not an upcoming feature is P2W shouldnt even be on the table. Regardless, in this case its all the same F-U to me from Yoshi and SE. Its double dipping, selling us more content which we should have included with the sub. I love how every time some dev decides to sell us content it supporters always point out the usual services. Name, appearance, and server changes are outside of the actual game... services made to your established character offered to those who changed their mind about their character. Its not actual content nor are they exclusive to RMT since you can always reroll a new character with a new name in a new server. None of that will apply to these RMT retainers.

MAYBE, I could accept this if the retainer is accessible on all characters. Mostly because im on entry level sub and it would still come out to the standard price (assuming its $1 a month). However even then it would still be a kick in the nads for those who already pay a full sub, have multiple characters in the same server, yet still can xfer or mail items because SE decided to put that common feature behind a pay gate and milk its fans for more money.
