    I get where you're coming from, but it isn't my point. I do have the money for these emotes, but why don't I buy? Because I dont support this kind of business. I'll pay for additional retainers because they're actually useful and reasonably priced for their function. But that $7 is gonna go to something else irl I'd rather spend it on. Like pads or something.

    But, the other post was trying to shame people for buying it, and while I get why they would do so, I dont believe one should shame someone for having the money to waste on virtual goods along with the act.

    I agree with not shaming players in pretty well any situation. But the dev team and corporate SE they have stuff to answer to in my book. Maybe we could call the cash shop buyers realists. They knwo SE doesn't care about the player base and this is the way it is going to be.

    The dev team lol. They are peons. Not matter what they want, they can be replaced by another person. The only one SE could have a difficult to change right away is Yoshi P, and any other face that is the image of game. Blame the corporation along for they are the one with the money and contract to push and rush their employees.

    I totally agree with the groups saying that we should earn the emote by a side quest game and the group asking to reduce the cost. $7 is a price not everybody can or won't be able to afford and agree that we shouldn't say bad things to people who can afford to pay for the emote. They got the money to "waste" according to some players. It is their money and decision.
