I don't mind that the cash shop exists, but I do mind when items are added that have not, and never will be, available in-game. I have seen a lot more of that this past year, everything from minions and mounts. outfits to housing items. We could be using our acheivement points, or something similar to the itinerant moogle. If you don't want to "grind" it in-game, sure go and buy it instead, your choice.
