Pay for your inventory.

[B]Stick to your vision, Yoshida-san,

Nice vision a sub mmorpg with f2p micro transactions to nickel and dime the players to death.

FYI: I know its a option but as a full time crafter you need those extra spaces and they know it or they wouldn't have offered it.

Stop hoarding junk mats.

My retainers are packed too, but if push came to shove, I could easily get rid of most of it.

Same here. A lot of it is just stuff I'm holding onto in case the price goes higher after Heavensward.

Well, if you truly unsubbed, when you havent logged in for 14 days, you wont be able to post on the forums anymore.

My sub never ran out but i didn't log in for a month due to real life and got logged out of the forums.

I don't really care about the retainers. I just emptied one of my two in preperation for new stuff. I had 4 at one point, but decided I didnt need to hoard everything anymore. Just waiting to turn in a bunch of gear for GC seals and my other retainer will be fairly emptied.

Just keep the important, hard to get mats, and get rid of the easy stuff.

Trust me I know how to work the market board. I didn't get a medium house selling 1 item at a time! The expansion is 1 day away. Just think about all the $$$$$$ you can make the first 90 days. I am not going to put up 1 item at a time and hope it sells.

P.S. If you don't see a problem going from $13~$15 and month to adding 2 retainers for $4 a month to adding 4 more retainers for another $8 a month. Then good luck to you because trust me they are not going to stop at $25~$27 a month. The are going to find a way to charge you for more and who knows how much you are going to be paying then!

Exactly, and people were saying this when minions came out. "oh it's ok it's just cosmetic don't worry" blah blah you don't have to buy it blah blah, and i personally still think it's wrong that the main characters are paid cosmetic features but that's not the point. The point is if you don't speak up now, things like this will keep happening, just wait!.

Next feature!. We have been listening to feedback about armory space, and boy do we have something special for you!. Extra armory space for the low low price of 3 extra $ per month.

I'm honestly curious... people who have more than 2 retainers, what are you even storing on them? I ask because I have multiple gear sets (every single available set for DRG minus a few pieces here and there plus a bunch of sets for other jobs), multiple weapons (Primal & Coil), dyes (all of the retainer venture ones), glamour gear, rare/expensive crafting mats, and various and sundry other things on mine and I still have plenty of space left.

I think $30.00 a month or anything approaching that, is insane. There's no reason a game should rival my internet bill in cost.

I want 30$ a month internet /cry.. mine is $105/month.

[Hyouretsuzan]

Crap...didn't know I was forced to pay for extra retainers. Did not see this gun pointed at me to buy it. Woah...SE took me by surprise there.

Ok, so I held off saying this for a while but enough is enough and I encourage everyone to complain and put their foot down on this type of thing.

First they sold fantasia in the Mog Store which was borderline ok. Other games that charge a subscription have you pay for realm transfers and re-doing your character. Personally, though I felt this should be something you could buy in game instead.

Then SE started selling stuff in the Mog Station from old seasonal events you used to be able to buy with gill when they came around again. Here they removed the option of being able to buy things with in game currency to get items. This is where it started to go too far and really going in the wrong direction. Adding additional retainers for a cost was another bad move and a big one. People who are paying subs for the game SHOULDN'T have to pay extra real money for inventory space or to get any items in the game cosmetic or otherwise.

And now instead of solving the inventory/glamor problem they are adding an option to buy more retainers. A service that should be part of the game already covered by the subscription fee. I'm buying an expansion and should get more inventory space as part of that purchase not "hey thanks for buying our game you have now unlocked the ability to spend more money and buy storage."

I love this game but this is getting ridiculous and SE too greedy. Be happy with being one of the only games besides WoW that can retain subscriptions and don't bite the hand that feeds you by playing these stupid games.

I for one don't want this game's cash shop to grow any bigger and would actually like to see a reduction. This isn't a free to play game it is subscription. It also isn't WoW and I hope it never degrades to the point where WoW is right now with its cash shop. Paying for Fantasia and the upgrades to the eternal bonding ceremony makes sense. Paying for more character slots is grudgingly ok and has precedence with FFXI. Charging for inventory space and to buy in game items that should be rewards for playing or basic features is NOT ok.

I really hope the producers listen to their player base on this one. The whole thing just gives me a bad taste in my mouth. Also, I've never heard any other game talk about having so much problems with data storage before. I don't understand why this is such a big problem.
