It's time to reevaluate the idea of adding a PLEX/Chronoscroll-like system to FFXIV

lol been a while since I've gone through this thread but took another gander and something I keep seeing brought up as a PLEX defense is that it would allow people who don't have time to play the game to buy housing. I think that is an absolutely terrible arguement and calling people who actually play elitests is even worse. Not everybody who plays the game a lot has a big ego and goes around trying to ruin others' experiences.

The reason I think that housing is a terrible defense is because we already have a major lack of housing plots available for people who actually play this game. There are some servers with people who have legitimately saved the gil for a house but cannot get one because there aren't any available.

Adding a PLEX system will make that situation even worse because there will be a higher demand for housing due to people having more gil. In the end the people who actually put in the work would get screwed over and you would end up with people who barely play taking housing plots that they didn't earn themselves.

I've said it before and I'll say it again, this is nothing more than legitimate RMT. It is 100% pay to win and I will never support this type of system. I'm a legacy player, I've been playing this game since 1.0 Alpha and again since the 2.0 Alpha, I love this game a lot but I will quit if they ever add a system like this and that's not a joke. People can go ahead and say I'm only one person so it won't matter but I can pretty much guarantee I wouldn't be the only one taking a leave from this game if they added a PLEX system. Sure, others will probably replace me but I doubt they'll all be supporting the game for as long as I have.
