can we please talk about character customization options?

The cash shop money is used for two things:

1: Cash Shop Items
2: SE profits

Neither generates any actual content for the game. The content they do introduce gets stripped down for Cash Shop monetisation (Weddings, Dyes, Odin).

Yoshi-P stated that cash shop funds will be going towards in game vanity content and side costs(like EU servers).

• Now talking about vocal opinion of players of cash shop, especially some worried opinions

• Reiterates no pay to win

• Minions sold in cash shop? NOT EXCLUSIVE to cash shop (I think, he said ingame and I may have misunderstood)

• Using those funds to create more vanity/minions/etc. that won't just be cash shop-exclusive, or doing other things like adding the new EU datacenter. Want to use those profits to give back to the community

Although atm i'm taking this with a grain of salt since we have yet to see those minions in game, (along with the new red/blue/green metallic dyes)
And we now have slight "pay to win" in game thanks to the sales of Premium and gold weddings in game.

On Topic, I really hope they would do a focus on vanity and player customization in the future, the bug fix they did to female Roegadyn Lips was a great start! I really hope they fix those baldspot in almost every hairstyle though.
