I don't care about being special in an MMO. If the FFX items are added to the cash shop 2 years from now (which will probably be the case) I wouldn't mind. I still got them 2 years before everyone else.

As a 1.0 player I'm glad they added a re-colored version of the Moogle Cap to the cash shop. I didn't pre-order A Real Reborn because I already had a copy of FFXIV from playing 1.0. The pre-order version looks better, but this one works better with certain glamours so it's all good.
