I never understood the multi-character troubles until now. Things need account wide.

I've got more than one character (4 at level cap plus one in progress to be precise). They don't all have the same achievements. Most of them are missing many of the seasonal events items because I hadn't created the character yet.

You don't need any of the items you listed to play an alt. Not every character needs to have every item.

If you want an achievement reward on a character badly enough, earn the achievement. There are very few achievements in this game that require extreme effort.

If you want the mogstation items (including previous seasonal event items) on the character that badly, then buy them. They aren't that expensive when they're something you're going to actively use on a regular basis.

It's amazing how much stuff you discover you really don't need when the game doesn't just hand them to you for free.

Please check your privilege. Some people have to choose between starving and abandoning mog station items. Not everyone finds mog station items "not that expensive".

If the budget is that tight why are they spending that crucial money on a pay-to-play game?

If you have to choose between starving and mog station items, you should not be playing FF14.

Literally nobody is choosing between cosmetics in a video game and starvation- and if you are so sheltered that you honestly believe that's a legitimate first world problem... maybe it's time to check your privilege?

Man if these are your life choices you REALLLLLLLY should not be playing FF14.

Mounts being account wide should have been a thing since forever ago but Square had ff14 F2P for too long and kept some of the shady practices you see in F2P mmo's.

As someone who used to have the time and willpower to play on multiple characters, I can agree to a certain extent. However, when you have to pay more than $5 for a glamour outfit/emote/mount/etc. that is pretty expensive. We already pay a fee to play the game, and while I'm glad there's no real pay to win mechanic, spending as much or more per item as the subscription fee for some things is expensive for virtual items which arguably hold no real value.

Achievements and seasonal items should be per character, but if I pay $12-18 for a glam I want it on all my characters.

Not the best example. The mog station items are expensive regardless, but if anyone is playing this game and prioritizing it over basic necessities to survive there is a problem.
