    There is only 1 culprit for this situation in general, and that is US!!, the gamers, the ppl that buy.

    If you go and play many other mmorpg and do the math of what you spend at the end of the month vs time spent playing game and do the same with that you have been spending so far to play FFXIV you might be surprised. I will not lie, when I first came to the game back in DEC/JAN, and saw how many products where actually in the mogstation I was very surprised seeing how few it had comparing again to a lot of other mmos.

    Im not saying that I support the idea, but I understand why they are doing it, and to be honest quite surprised they havent done more in the past. What I hope is that there is a balance, that they continue to make players play the game for rewards and that this example is just something that they do occasionally. I dont mind if they do that.

    As an example if you go and play SWTOR now, a game when at its beginning had some similarities to this one. It is marketed F2P, but really it isnt, if you want to fully experience the game you need a subscription like this one. And get this, the majority of content as in terms of what we call our glamour/mounts here, comes in packs that you have to buy with real money .. but get this you dont get to choose what you want, its rng based in a pack!!! (just an example)

    I like the business model of this game and I hope it continues the same. If they put occasional glamour/mounts in the mogstation, I have no problem with that as long as the majority of all items have to be obtainable playing the game as it is presently.
