I wait for the day SE puts something in the cash shop that people that are saying "you dont have to pay for it" really wants. Just so that we can see them complaining on the forums how bad it is and telling them that they just dont need to buy it.

Really we are paying monthly for this game. Lets make a short (not 100% accurate) calculation: If there are 200k actives subs and each one of those pay 15€ per month this would make it 3 Million € per month. That would make around 36 Million € per year. This is completely without any cash shop money and it might be more or less depending on numbers but I would say that this is quite a good number..On top of that they already get the money from the extra retainers and the fantasia that people buy.

I feel really bad if SE cant create content with that amount of money..I mean if they can only exists by selling us more and more cash shop items..wouldnt that mean that the future of FF14 might not look so good?
