Is our sub fee not enought

Think most the outrage is not that there is a cash shop and they putting stuff in it, it the price they are charging for the items on top of paying a monthly sub. Lot of people seem to be unhappy about a emote costing $7, now if they lowered that price to say $3 for the emote would there still be people that unhappy? Yes but I think a lot less would complain about it and be more ok with. Least that what I feel is going on, that cash shop for what it selling it ok it just priced too high for be a sub game.

But isnt a part of that because so many players are agaisnt what is sold in there to begin with , like I said the items are so limited its hardly anything even in the mog station and I think thats an attempt to stay true to their base.

They added a dress oh the forums freaked on the dress is 18 dollars , they been selling the same three mounts on there for how long now. They put limited items in there so that people want start calling them buy to play , like I said swtor is a sub based game to and SE has every right to go in that direction if they want to yea you can play old stuff for free but the new stuff is still based on your sub. So with their limited options on what they can sale then I dont see a problem with an emote even being 10 dollars cause at the end of the day people will complain about it anyway literally on every item they have put in there sense Ive been scrolling the forums.

Last I checked swtor was a freemium that had both free and paid models. But I think you totally missed the point of my thread.

If the cost of the item is the issue then just wait for them to show up on sale. They do occasionally run sales on items in the mogstation if I'm not mistaken.

Probably because they look like total rip-offs now. I've tried to get friends to play FFXIV before, base game + expansion + subscription + items locked away in a cash shop is a very tough sell.

I don't mean to assume, but this sounds like people are simply looking for reasons not to play. While this here is the most likely culprit.
