    Why is everyone so quick to want to throw more money? Given the option of including it in game or mogshop, as a developer I'd go with Mogshop every single time I saw threads like this.

    Honestly I don't care either way as long as I can have that look. :P Glamours aren't very pricey in the Mogstation anywho so well worth $8-$15 for me. $20 would be my absolute max. I probably shouldn't have said that though. >_<

    Actually $15 is quite a lot. Heck... $10 is really a lot. Is it "too much"? Nah, I don't think so, but to be fair not everyone has $10 extra to throw away on a single outfit for a video game

    Clearly, the best Final Fantasy character is Locke Cole.
    Glamour is TRUE ENDGAME

    Have you seen outfits in F2P games? (e.g. $31.90 for good stat outfit in Vindictus, $15 outfits in Blade and Soul, $4-10 per piece of glam in Maplestory ...etc.)
    MMOs aside, there's also a massive amount of DLC available for purchase on Steam for pretty much every new game these days.

    Consumers have (unfortunately) shown that they don't mind getting nickel and dimed on cosmetic items and extra content.


    I'm glad SE doesn't charge real money for things like haircuts, glamour prisms, most mounts, and most emotes.

    Because people enjoy supporting what they like (or love). It's actually not a foreign concept, you know. Not to mention, for every service, there deserves compensation. We already get free outfits and such as sub rewards every few months, too.

    You can pay 15 bucks a month for a gym membership that has access to all their facilities, but that doesn't mean you get Gatorade and protein bars for free. Sub MMO's don't really operate much differently, and I'd say you shouldn't take for granted the freebies we already do get.

    Nothing in this game is free, all should be granted to me by just buying it and keeping my subscription up.
    Microtransactions are the cancer of the gaming industry from gamers perspective, saying that you love it is simply a justification to your probably mental condition of impulsive consumism.

    ... "Support" like this is what encourages and allows games like evole or any EA piece of year trash exist... And more encouragin of it on this forums, which is 1 thread too much already will end up being hurt full for all the player base. Sadly all the bad signs are showing, sooner or later we will see materia packs, and top tier tomestone gear on the cash shop just because some people "loves to support". Stop it. You are bad. Microtransactions are bad. Cash Shops are bad.

    1. No. The cash shop stuff is extra stuff aside from your subscription. Just because you pay for the sub doesn't automatically entitle you to free cash shop items whenever they are added.

    2. I never said I "love" it but I do like the ability to buy OPTIONAL COSMETIC items from the cash shop and saying this means I have a mental condition is retarded in itself.

    3. No one is making you buy items from the cash shop. I'm soooo sorry for your unbearable pain.

    4. No. As of now the cash shop is purely COSMETIC with no indication whatsoever that it will ever change.

    5. Lol It's an open forum. Me using it to ask for a glamour is bad? No.

    6. Micro transactions and cash shops are another way for the company to turn a profit and keep the game running. I fail to see how this is bad?!?

    Well, I'm sure some SE executive type is looking at FFXIV, looking at the massive amounts of money they draw in from the cash shop, and going "Why should we waste money hiring content designers to make better content for the game? Just paint that mount another colour and charge for it".

    Seriously, I'd love to see the profits SE gets from the cash shop, stuff like the Magitek Mounts and Scion outfits are existing assets, there was no cost involved in their creation (or very little, for painting the Magitek mount red, and giving Minfilias outfit to all races). They're charging 15$ (or whatever) for what exactly? The right to have it? It certainly didn't cost them anything extra to make, considering they've been around since 2.0 (for the white Magitek mount, 1.0 if you want to split hairs over the Scions outfits). It's pure profit for them, and you just know someone higher up the corporate chain is wanting to cash in on that, rather than cash in on quality content. Quality content takes time and money to produce, two things which seemingly didn't go into something like Diadem...
