Real Money to Get In-Game Currency: Eternal Bond Edition

No, I don't think I will regret it.

And come on, don't act like the sky is falling. Rest assured that SE does not want this game to fail either since, you know, it's their job. For us, it's only a past-time. If the game fails, THEY will be the ones with problems.
A couple of dyes in the Cash Shop is hardly going to make the game fail.

You might know "A lot of people who have canceled their sub", but I know "A lot of people who joined recently". Our personal knowledge is irrelevant in the grand scheme of things, so you should not project your personal experience as if it was the general trend.

You know it ticks me of somewhat that while I struggling with gil in-game (and money in RL), that people with too much RL money can just waltz in and make a ton from the MB while I struggle to sell much of anything.

How are you struggling with gil? its easy as heck to make.

Come to Jenova, and join our FC. I can personally make sure you almost never have trouble keeping your coffers full, and your characters in HQ gears.

I like that you find it so funny while not understanding it at all. 1: People were asking for this for free (or a token amount), not for gil

Do I REALLY have to go quote all those posts that were asking for it to be for gil?? I understand it completely, just because you don't share my POV doesn't make it so.

Regardless, want to buy mine? 6mil

Let's hope you don't come to regret this attitude later. I know a lot of people who have outright told me they have cancelled their sub, and a lot I have not seen since shortly after 2.4. People who had logged on regularly for years.

I don't want this game to fail, even though I have cancelled my sub also, so I don't want to see SE alienate its playerbase by stripping down features into a free version and a paid version.

Lol at this doomsayer stuff all over again. Get a grip. You need to come to the understanding that even in a sub based game, YOU ARE NOT ENTITLED TO EVERYTHING THEY DEVELOP OR CREATE --- PERIOD

The game has been out for 1 year so how you have friends that have logged on "regularly for years" is just another point in how much you over exaggerate EVERYTHING you post. This isn't the first time you've cancelled your sub lol.

here comes the dreaded Sith Army Knife

Damn your awesome sig, I can't stop staring at it

OT: As long as legal RMT is allowed, people will use it if they got the funds IRL and want to make a quick buck in game. Last time I checked, 5M for a Plat Wristlet is about what's the current RMT rate is going for. But you can't be banned and spoiled of your loot with this legal RMT so of course people are gonna abuse it ^_^

Can you still trade the item that you buy with IRL money (forgot its name!) for gil?

Not everyone has every class at 50 with maxed out HQ recipes and mats, crafting all day till the sun sets and then playing Market Board Tycoon.

Some have little free time, and use it to enjoy the basic combat experience, be it in FATEs, HUNTs, Duty Roulettes or some Labyrinth or Syrcus Tower here and there.

For those 'casual' people (or people who don't wanna zip through content like I did in other games only to get bored later on), seeing people who worked their ass off to earn Gil in game is fine, especially if they had more time to do so (IE: Joined the game before)

Seeing people just pulling Gil out of thin air thanks to their real life $$$ despite having little to no time playing the game is letting a sour aftertaste in our mouth. Oh well

Yes.

You will get there, there is no point to think there is a need to rush. Level your crafters and gatherers and then you will find yourself already spending less money, you will notice more money going up and also you'll have the ability to sell more in the market board.

and people with little to no time with 10 mil gil or more may be able to reach a certain threshold. but you aren't going to be clearing tam tara HM, let alone extremes or turns with pentamelded i110, if you aren't skilled with your class. and practice time isn't purchaseable with RMT. And if they are practiced enough to do that content, chances are they already were able to obtain equivalent gear in-game.

I may have tens of millions of gil, but I still haven't and can't clear tam tara or stone vigil HM. I'm not skilled enough, no matter how much gil I make.

you're kidding right ? It takes no skill to clear any of the dungeons. The only prerequisite is to have a brain. And maybe smash buttons when no AoE appears on the screen. i110 HQ just carries you through all of the dungeons currently available unless you stand here AFK in AoEs.
