starting to lose interest in this game sadly

[Eul]

Cash shop doesn't give any enhance to game like those other F2P but cosmetics so I can't complain with the cash shop until now (Back then almost mad about the metallic dye lol)

I've lost interest since last year. I'm only still playing since I bought a year and a half of sub.The cashshop ruined it completely for me. Not that it gives benefits or anything, or that you have to splurge money for some things.

I'm annoyed by the fact that a p2p game that asks 15 bucks a month and extra cash for retainers, 10bucks for name changes, 20 bucks for server transfers and they just decide to throw in a cashshop to put in mounts, expired seasonal costumes and dyes.

I understand name changes, server transfers and fantasias, but if I'm paying a sub, I'm expecting to have every piece of equipment, dye and mount being obtainable by playing the game. Even if it would be a longass grind, insane amounts of gil or something with a 1% chance to drop.

I'm sort of losing interest as well but the cash shop is the least of my concerns. You do realize the cash shop only sells cosmetic stuff right? How would that even matter to you?

I have no problems with the cash shop unless they start putting pay to win stuff.. I have no problems with paying for optional cosmetic items

The problem i have is that some items in the cash shop are not obtainable in the game itself. That really annoys me.

To all the people who are saying that all the stuff in the cash shop is meaningless because it's just cosmetic; that is outright selfish. What is important to you might be worth a damn to others.

- If they were to place "Enhanced" Gordian i210 pieces in the cash shop and just reward i200 dyeable gear in Savage, raiders would be furious.
- If they were to place the latest PvP equipment in the cash shop instead of having it available through in game currency, that portion of the playerbase would be furious
- For crafters, items needed for the red scripts crafts or even the gear itself, you get the idea...

There are people whose "endgame" is glamours, or minion collections, or mount collections. Coming here to say "what you like is not that important, it's fine" is nothing but, again, selfish.

"What if they did something completely unlike what they are doing and that they said they won't do!? Well, What then!?"

Is basically what you are saying

Which is kinda...pointless/

What I said is something to be considered and a sort of counter argument to many of the things being thrown around in this thread. It has way more substance than your response.

Those aren't cosmetic though... those all serve actual purpose and help you advance through the game.
My endgame IS glamour, but let's be real it doesn't provide an "advantage" in the game.

also let's be real any REAL glamour nut isn't going to be using anything from the shop that's shop-exclusive (so not counting old event available items)... maybe the dyes? oh wait those are available in game now.

Snip

Those things have purpose as far as advancement goes. A yukata does not.
