    Sorry maybe I misused the word transparency? All prices are on the sign and any change is well documented and put forward. It also has some sort of logical thought process to it. The sauce may cost a much larger % of the burger then we know. As ingredients prices fluctuate on amount of production. But they can not charge the same price. Big mac Meal is 5.99 extra sauce is 25 cents. But maybe the sauce literally cost 25 cents. Could they charge 60 cents 10% of what the actual meal costs. Also some of the stuff on cash shop has physically been paid for once.

    SE prices are randomly and feel like what is the max profit not a percentage of cost. Moogle mount 29.99 USD, to seller on ps4 game 59.99 USD. I don't need any math to see one asset per character compared to a full game.

    What I want is 100% upfront pricing structure and what it gives us. If we have a cash shop that is fine. But I want to know monthly sub is X amount of content per year and cash shop is X amount of content per year and will include X content. That is the transparency I want. Also on the topic of upfront. That they don't ever want all players to have the same game experience. Or they would not make certain design decisions.

    Not to be mean but you sound like the head office guys who increase prices for production and then complain sales are down but then trot out the amazing gross on sales.
