Mogstation and New Content

[Arg0n]

2 things.
1. Mogstation is cosmetic items ONLY and not a necessity.
2. You do not NEED it and you are not ENTITLED to it.

So if you dont NEED it, dont BUY it.

That is just your way to think about „optional“ items.
Did you ever expect, they will implement emotes in Mogstation only?

It’s not just „cosmetic“ items now, actually a lot of really good looking gear, emotes and mounts, or chocobo-barding are now implemented in shop only.
Man that sucks!

And to all who think it’s just cosmetic, wait till there will be new gear or anima boosts are something. This WILL come, sooner or later, like the emotes.
For me and lots of other players too , raid gear in mog-shop would be seen as „optional“ too.

We pay a monthly subscribtion, and the addons cost too.

I know Square Enix have to maximize profit too, like every other company, but this is getting out of hand…

Btw. glamour is the truly endgame

You're using a slippery slope fallacy. You're pretending that A leads inevitably to Z when there's no real reason to think that it does. The devs have repeatedly stated that the MogStation items will always be purely optional and cosmetic and will never include actual gear with stats.

Really good looking gear, mounts, emotes, and Chocobo barding are all still purely cosmetic, as they have absolutely no bearing on your ability to complete a dungeon (except for the ability to complete it while looking fabulous). So far, they have not strayed from their stated intention and there is no reason to believe that they will.

Might be my bad, but I fail to see how a dance or an emote is essential to anyone's gameplay. We got 2 new ones not too long ago in-game for doing the MSQ (HW), and now they added a couple of trivial ones to the MS. What exactly is getting out of hand? I don't see a glamour or an emote or a chocobo barding for that matter sth that would break the game. MS is a great way for people to catch up with all the 'promotions', 'exclusives' and 'event items' that they might have missed out on. That's why they are called optional items. In-game gear that gives you stats is not an optional item. You NEED it, and you need to EARN it. FF has been around for quite a while and I just don't see them going the WoW way with boosts or the ESO way with a ton of exp boost scrolls and such things.
