Would you pay for extra retainers/more inventory if given the option?

[Azurymber]

If SE gave you the option of purchasing up to 6 more retainers at $3.00 per month each, would you purchase any and if so how much?

Assume you are only allowed to have 2 retainers up in the wards at one time. (that avoids the connectivity problems and filling up of wards)

Personally i would purchase all 6. I know its a lot of money per month but I level every craft and would love to have retainers dedicated to specific items or crafts.

Do you think it would be a good idea for SE to do this? People can still make free chars for now. But this would kinda be like saying "you can purchase a bit of convenience if you want and support us in the process" and maybe it would get SE to invest a few more ppl to the dev team since they'd be making -some- money.

I would definitely pay!

Probably starting with one more retainer for now, but eventually needing a few more just for storing crafting materials and all of these unique and untradable items that we are getting from NMs and events.

[AndrewN]

Yes!

Maybe not all 6, but I would definitely get 1 and possibly a second as soon as possible. Where do I sign?

[Platinumstorm]

I won't even pay for the game right now, so no, but I hope I can say I would subscribe in a year.

Even Blizzard had to backtrack on its microtransations with its "Real Party ID" because of the negative feedback from the potential charges. How do you expect Square to manage that after FFXIV's launch? They can't, and if they do it would just be another misguided step on the path to losing even more of the players' trust.

I would pay one dollar per retainer max, mailed by check to a secure facility.

[Keith_Dragoon]

I would pay a one time fee of $3 per retainer. Nothing more I'm afraid.

[Kibbles]

if i remember right it was $1 for a retainer and $3 for another character slot at least that is what they said before release!

[Wynn]

I would as well, but only if those retainers could all be placed in the wards. I don't have issues with inventory space, the extra retainers would be for nothing more than extra sales slots. Also, Kibbles is correct. The original plan was $1 per extra retainer, $3 per extra character.

I'd buy them as needed, yes... Right off the bat I'd probably only get 2 or 3, but I'm sure I'd work my way up to the max amount eventually.

Muling right now sucks really bad, because there's no mailbox, there's lag on the inventory screen, and well, there's no mailbox... Plus with events that give you like 10 rare/ex swimsuits, yeah... Gonna need a bigger boat ASAP.

I think the max of 2 retainers tending the wards at a time is a good idea though. We don't need it clogged down to bejebus with like 8 retainers per person... It'd be crippling even now, but just imagine after the game relaunches and gets a bunch more people playing. It'd just be stupid. It's already over crowded with 2 retainers per person and a limited total population.

Anyway yeah, I'd buy more retainers in a heartbeat.
