    That's what most of the posts here are getting at. Those of us who posted are either on the side of "We refuse to accept this as a way to alleviate the inventory issue and will not pay this, or can not pay this" or "Deal with it they charge what ever the f they want. If you don't want to pay for it, then you don't get it."

    Yup, and its those people with that mindset which are responsible for what the gaming industry has become lately. Its just sad. Of course theyd probably just proudly say something along the lines of "Dont like it? Stop gaming."

    I am almost to that point! $60 for Evolve and another $240 for DLC. $60 for Batman and another $80 for a dlc subscription and now $25 a month to play FFXIV if you want max Inventory spaces. I mean seriously $300 a year to play this game joke!

    Just be like me and don't pay for what you don't feel is worth the money (or you feel is ethically/morally wrong). I am going to get Arkham Knight, but I am NOT paying for the DLC. I am perfectly content with a vanilla game. If I wasn't, but still wished to play, I'd just spend my time on something else (like this game maybe) and wait for the eventual mark-down/sale a year or so after. Even the Smash Bros paid DLC is kinda ridiculous IMO. Whereas games like Hyrule Warriors will give you a HUGE amount of quality DLC with that game for $20. That is a perfectly justifiable cost.

    In the case of retainers, given how it is with having the 2 paid retainers, I really only need 1... maybe 2 more. An extra $2-4 monthly isn't wallet breaking for (safe to assume) 99% of the player population. My only issue is the lack of a reason why inventory expansion (player inventory, armoire, company chest) is such an issue, when they can clearly double the already existing load with this. If they're willing to tell us server capacity is an issue for inventory related limitations, they should be more than willing to tell us why it's suddenly okay as long as we pay for it lol.

    I am not willing to pay for it! I canceled my sub and I canceled my preorder. As I said in the other post. First they wanted $13 a month and then they wanted another $4 a month and now the want another $8 month. When does it end?

    The funny thing is they say they can't give us any more inventory spaces due server limitations. But some how $12 a month magically fixes those limitations!

    No need for that, there are plenty of major F2P games.

    Yeah... obviously youre missing the point. Either that or have grown so used to willingly being milked for scraps of what should be a fully featured quality product, that you fail to see how F2P is anything but free. Rather an elaborate bait to give players a taste of the quality they can have, and entice them to buy it one piece at a time.

    Guess im one of those old farts who grew up in a time where developers strived to make games as fun and complete as possible for our money. Not thinking what they can hold back to try and make you pay extra for it later.

    Oh and those thinking that its cool because youre giving SE more money to develope blah blah blah need to stop being so naive. The only thing participating in cash shop purchases will ever give you is more cash shop stuff. The only 'quality' youll ever see from your "generous contribution" will be exactly where you invested it, the cash shop.

    Case in point, how much have they made from the cash shop? From extra retainers alone? Look where its gone... instead of expanding or even fixing a problem even Yoshi has admitted many players are having... they open up more space behind more fees. So where is all that going to? Still waiting on housing... the expansion we're already paying $40 for?
