It sounds to me all you are doing is defending Square Enix's excessive pricing for optional items that could well be part of in-game events.


Without ruining SE's business, another solution for everyone to enjoy optional items would be if they slashed half the item's price after every year in the store, so it starts at 100% the price, one year later 50%, one year later 25%, etc. etc., I doubt many players buy DLCs after years in the Mog Station anyway!.
