So if our sub doesn't get us the things they design and put in the cash shop, why should it any of the option stuff we have now?

I agree people should have to pay for server transfers, name changes, and race changes. But glamour, mounts, dyes and emotes should all be things you don't have to pay extra for. Otherwise, why put any of that obtainable in the game at all?
Real answer, because it's expensive to make 'optional' content, but people clamor for it all the same. SE has decided that, rather than making only what is feasible and leaving us with only a few optional things all available in-game they would create MogStation and we would have oodles and oodles of optional bs, but for real hard earned dollars.

It's their game and a lot of the optional stuff they've created for Mogstation is great, but I'm never paying for it so I'm kinda sad to miss out.
