Fat Moogle Mount on Mogstation!

[Skivvy]

We can kinda judge that already based on who has the Ceremony Chocobo. It has appeal for being a two-seater that doesn't require any "commitment", real or otherwise.

EDIT: more to the point, as long as SE is making more money over this mount than they are losing it from people unsubscribing over it (or issues pertaining to it), the cash shop is here to stay, even if I personally dislike it.

I wouldn't say the Ceremony chocobo is a fair comparison to the moogle as it is linked to weddings which is a big to-do for some people. Plus you do get fancy outfits and a warp ring, so you're not talking only a mount here.

But for what it's worth, Ceremony Chocobo is at 12%.

I realize the the cash shop is here to stay. It doesn't mean that we can't keep our fingers crossed that they will change how they release items for it. My posting of numbers was more to dispute the quips about "forums users being a drop in the hat" and that we have some skewed idea about how many people are really buying.

There is a plethora of reasons why someone may not buy a mount, so I'm not claiming that everyone without them shares the thinking in this thread, but the numbers do show that the ones who do purchase are definitely the minority at this point.
