Correction of prices for optional items

[Raxion]

You spend that money in stuff that really matters like helping poor children or stuff like that. Or keep your sub running. This is not a free to play.

Of course it isn't. But FFXIV's cash shop offers no form of advantage like an F2P's cash shop would.

Players just need to come to terms with it. It's happening whether you want it to or not. You might as well just learn to live with it. If you don't like it, don't use it. If you're OK with it, use it. It's just that simple.
