Mogstation taking another step to the darkside

[Alleo]

Anyone with half a brain knew that it was going to go way beyond old event items.

Oh of course, SE is a huge company and they love to milk their customers. Its just funny that at the time when the mog station was only used for old event items and some of us warned that this could open it up to more items we got shut down. And now when people dare to complain about having more and more items locked behind a paywall we are told off and should just accept it.

At such a time I just remember a few of Jim Sterlings videos and sigh about the argument that this is just something extra and you dont have to buy it.

Yoshi P has said before that the game's money doesn't always go back into the game. I think it is pretty obvious when SE's got a hot new title they're working on, the game suffers a bit. Unfortunately, the devs probably DO need whatever money they can get from the cash shop to keep pushing out content, because they definitely don't get the money and manpower they deserve. Still though, every business exists to make money, so a little greed is always a factor.

Why should we believe them? Are you telling me that its only thanks to the cash shop that we can get new content? How bad would that be for the game itself..we had over a million of active subs. Then the x amount of fantasia potions and other stuff..it would be a sad day if cash shop is necessary..its just extra easy to make money.

Yoshida is also part of the the board of directors at SE. He should be able to make quite some decisions.

In the end 99,9% of the time such a speech is just pure PR.

What are you talking about? The in-game event comes out on Monday. It's on the lodestone. We're getting 2 different bunny outfits, a stuffed bunny, and a poster.

The timing is weird but spriggans aren't necessarily spring themed and seems to be a higher quality than most non-mogstation mounts. Are we going to have this thread whenever a cash shop mount happens?

So spriggan is a character in that event and suddenly they introduce it as a mount around that time of the event..sorry but I 100% see a connection there.

And yes if people are annoyed by it they could if they want create a thread to every cash shop mount that gets released. I mean nobody is forced to read it.
