    Other than that, it's not really anything I'll get much use out of. A little bit disappointed that inventory management doesn't account for organization. Would've liked to have seen the full inventory panes, empty spaces and all. I feel disinclined to move anything if it's going to throw off how I've got things sorted.

    And also there doesn't seem to be any real way to close the app that I could see, short of returning to your device home screen and hoping that it doesn't continue to run in the background.

    I have not downloaded the app. I will not be downloading the app, based on information from multiple people. This information pretty much validated my concerns:

    1.) The app should have no premium currency nor service period. Even Bungie, who has dived headfirst into the microtransaction ecosystem feetfirst with a smile, does not require a premium service to access every option of the app. I used it, and I only paid for PS+. World of Warcraft does not offer a premium service either to utilize all functions of the app. The fact it has premium anything is an insult. I can get behind the kupo nut system to combat rampant undercutting of the economy, but I cannot get behind everything else.

    2.) I pay the subscription fee to have 8 characters (I have 4, only 2 of which I play) and I have bought items on the Mogstation that I wanted, such as past event items I missed, a story/level skip for my Alt, and other costume items like the maid outfit and princess dress as I wanted - because they were optional, and I know that the Mogstation is supposed to go directly to the development team. Ok, I can understand and be ok. If that's changed, my purchases will end after the Fenrir bike that's for sure.

    With that said: forcing me to pay 5 dollars for an app subscription per month to access more inventory space and another retainer is bollocks. It is wrong. This is not a free to play game and Square Enix is not an indie developer, they have studios and teams all over the world, with multiple games coming out in the next six months. This is a money grabbing attempt if I ever saw one, and I played GTAO for YEARS. Now it feels as if Square Enix is attempting to nickel and dime us to the nth degree, and it seriously is angering me. I love this game, I enjoy my classes and the story, the friends I have made in the game and the items I have earned and bought.

    I complained about the app before I stepped foot on these forums, so this is all of what I have felt since it was announced.

    3.) Inventory should not be locked behind yet another subscription. If they wished to tie it to the app, giving it to us for signing up on the free plan to encourage us to download it? Fine. Add an advertisement for Tomb Raider, Kingdom Hearts, etc while the game is loading - literally I would not care if you advertised your products will the app loaded. People might. I won't. But locking more inventory space, something I want because I like keeping my glamours on me and not rely on the 10 plates of the dresser all the time, frustrates me.

    Please no one use the premium service, please. Let it crash and burn, and maybe they'll treat us with more respect.




    But who am I kidding, I'm just so no-one kid from Pallet Town.

    to be fair the "premium" service is basically just a fancy retainer that comes with an extra saddlebag
    just cancel a current retainer and your nearly breaking even.

    or don't bother with premium app? still get the extra favored destination just for having it and market board stuff and chat

    It's an insult to the community.

    It's 10,99€ for the sub and they expect me to pay nearly half a sub for a trashy app?

    So the free app is mostly useless but if you are willing to pay that much for prenium fonctions, magically all the "server limitations" that prevent them to add more inventory space vanish?

    Well since the Eureka fiasco, I already stopped to play and I only resub for my house (which is also one other stupid feature), but with Pagos that prove thet devs don't really listen to feedbacks, the content drought, the lack of creativity and this PAYING INSULTING app, I seriously consider to stop playing...

    It's really sad because i think i can't even say how much I loved this game and how it's was beyond amazing...

    But I guess I need to remenber:

    $quare €nix £ove ¥ou...

    Risking to be called a whiteknight but I don't think anyone is expected to use the premium plan. I'm seriously consider it for the extras.

    It is shit right now, but I just hope there would be further development and addition of new features to it.
    It called server congestion. It happens to main servers too. Login queues etc.

    I'm not planning to use this app at all, not even the free features. And I don't understand why anyone would need to pay for it. Just use the MB ingame; it's easier, unlimited, and costs no extra fee.

    I don't like that SE decided to release this app, because it's only going to create tons of drama for something that (in my opinion) wasn't worth being made. That said, I also don't think this app is "forcing" anyone to anything, for there's very little gain (if any at all) from using it. I simply can't see the point or the joy of accessing the MB from phone instead of ingame O_O; Surely no one is going to die from being unable to be at home sometimes?

    tl!dr: On one hand I don't get why SE had to made this app, and on the other I don't get why the community is being so worked up over something that's not offering anything you can't do in-game already, as if the app was life-changing. Maybe it's because I'm not a crafter and I must be missing some info (?)
