Account wide achievements

[RukiaFae]

I just want seasonal events achievements account wide. It sucks to lose out on gear or mounts from events if you play alts. And no I don't want to buy it from the mog station because I was paying my sub during the time of the event and actually completed the event.

The event quests are short enough to do them with every alt you have

Naw I'm fine with the system the way it is. A new character is a new character meaning new everything. Only thing I think should be account wide is mog station purchases since the price they want to charge for the stuff.

I've been in f2p games quite some time and tbh I found the mog pricing so low that isn't so much a burden have to purchase multiple times the same item.

If you take a look on pricing of f2p around, you will notice equivalent items can easily be 10x+ the mog station price. I also experienced a game whose one-single-character-outfit were priced 99 bucks and put into a chance box that even may not give it to you (nope, didn't bought that ).

About options, maybe it will be a good idea in mog station have the option to purchase the item as account-wide (aka sent to all and any character you create), paying a reasonable premium ofc.

FFXIV isn't F2P though...we pay money every month to play. You even have to pay a higher sub fee to get more than one character per server (unless you are legacy) yet you purchase mog station stuff and it only goes to one character...

So having to purchase multiples is kind of ridiculous. It should be account wide.

I'm not sure if we should compare our prices with games that are entirely free to play while we still have subscription fees. In most F2P games, the conversion rate (the amount of players actually paying compared to the amount playing) is anywhere between 2 and 30 percent, which means at least 70% of players never pay a dime. In this game, you got a 100% conversion rate through subs plus a surplus via cash shop.

Acct wide achievements work better when a game encourages alt play due to single chr classes.

Yes, comparison between subs and f2p is quite difficult to do. On a more general point of view, I feel that playing a subs game is much less expensive that a f2p game (provided you want keep to play both at higher tiers) and the likely reason is your one, aka much less people giving bucks to the publisher.

To make it tl:dr I just think the mog station not overpriced. I feel this topic better be talked in another thread, 'tho, we derailed it a little but worth discussing.

I personally prefer to have achievements not shared.

I enjoy working hard for good rewards. If I decide that I'd rather start over, I'd like to experience the grind for achievements.

I don't mind not having account wide achievements. I feel each character is unique and it shows how much dedication a person has taken for that particular character.
