I'm sad that they said they'll want to give us as much inventory space as possible. But apparently all of it is locked behind a paywall in a sub based game.

I've said this in other threads, but it's worth repeating. It's very telling that a significant portion of each Live Letter is now devoted to advertising additional ways for people to spend money on the game. Meanwhile glaring issues such as the infestation of bots and win traders in PvP continue to avoid being addressed in a meaningful manner.
I imagine it'll be the same as when you stop paying for the extra retainers now, you just can't access them at all, and any items stored there can't be retrieved until you pay for access.
Not surprised they put saddlebag increase and a retainer that does not count toward retainer limit behind the premium to get people to install the thing. Extra inventory is always going to be a cash grab. We just got lucky they created and gave out a saddlebag to everyone free of charge before they found out how to increase its limit and put a price on it.
Do you get additional retainers or only the right to buy them if you have premium? (So another fee on top of that?)
Also funny how they are able to double the saddle capacity if you pay them money but otherwise server somehow cant handle it..
Letter from the Producer LIVE Part IX Q&A Summary (10/30/2013)
Q: Will there be any maintenance fees or other costs for housing, besides the cost of the land and house?
A: In older MMOs, such as Ultima Online, there was a house maintenance fee you had to pay weekly, but in FFXIV: ARR we decided against this system. Similarly, these older MMOs also had a system where your house would break down if you didn’t log in after a while in order to have you continue your subscription, but this is a thing of the past and we won't have any system like that.
Good more P2W movements and practises. Premium upon premium. The Mog Station and the increasing prices over the years already gave a picture on where the game is heading.
The premium features are overpriced as expected. But what killed it is the crap mobile P2W special currency to do things and the obligation to log in every day.
It's probably a way to limit the increase so that the servers won't explode AND ripping off a few bucks while doing it.
In otherwords it's terrible, they should've never done it and it soured everything for me, don't even care if it's ok for japan.
I do not like this development.
