My apologies. My very first MMO was XI, and everything was included with my subscription. I suppose I expected them to continue with their original thinking when it came to the value of their subscriptions.
You seem to think that everything that´s behind a paywall would have been otherwise put into the game in another fashion when the truth is that without the extra profit, it may simply never have been made to begin with.
If i go to a restaurant and halfway thru my meal, my waitress announces that for only 1$ more i can have an extra dessert, i cannot accuse them of scamming me out of a dessert piece, because that dessert would have never been offered to me to begin with, if the offer had not been in place.
They never scammed me out of a dessert, they offered an EXTRA ONE for a price.
This is the same.
Logic is flawed... So if they added a fight against a random FF character like Cloud, beat him and you get glamour items. The only way to participate is with an item purchased at the mogstation you would say "They're just offering me some extra... for a price" ?You seem to think that everything that´s behind a paywall would have been otherwise put into the game in another fashion when the truth is that without the extra profit, it may simply never have been made to begin with.

How is the logic flawed.
Without the profits from the Mogstation item, they may never have made the battle against Cloud and thus that content is just extra content for a price.
If there is no profit, there is no optional content.
If tomorrow we woke up and the Mogstation was gone, you may feel like you are getting "the full package" because there is no longer anything behind a paywall.
But truth is, that you are simply missing on all that extra paid content, that now is no longer there.
As a non cash-shopping player, you are getting exactly the same amount of content that you would have gotten if there was no Mogstation.

Exactly, non cash shop players, imo seem to think anything in the mog station is some kind of "missed" content to their play experience, its OPTIONAL, but I guess that word doesn't register to someHow is the logic flawed.

It's not an "option" to get it on the mogstation when it's exclusive there, it's no like you have OTHER alternative to get the itens, unlike event itens, recolours, creating the race you want at first, choosing your name and choosing your server. I don't see how you cannot understand that people don't find cool paying for a game, paying for a sub, payin for a expansion and then payin for an item if they like it. Wanna pay for it? Doesn't care about it? Great, but is that so surprising that some people do not find this move right? I guess that simples logic doesn't register to you.

Obviously you don't know how to read into something, Optional as in you can go to pay or not to pay, in no way does not buying this affect their gameplay, if people are so bothered by paying extra for EXTRA content then they should go play offline games.It's not an "option" to get it on the mogstation when it's exclusive there, it's no like you have OTHER alternative to get the itens, unlike event itens, recolours, creating the race you want at first, choosing your name and choosing your server.

EQ had something similar. Dungeon you could only enter with a key bought with Station Cash.
