Omega Emote is Tasteless

[Stepjam]

You have disposable income and some privilege.

Nobody is entitled to anything beyond basic dignity. You aren't owed fancy emotes my dude.

Here we see: person misunderstands what privilege means, whines, despite being privileged enough to live in a country where they can avoid homelessness whilst paying for a luxury every month.

Statue finally just arrived in the mail last week. The emotes are both pretty neat too!

Just as I'm not going to stop enjoying purchasing items that bring me joy, I'm not about to demand that people feel bad that they have something that I too would like to buy, or for companies to stop producing merchandise. Collector's Editions fall under this as well. I missed out on one for WoW, because there were supply issues with my local stores, and while I might have been sad at the time, thems the breaks and you don't always get what you want. I'm not going to sour at seeing people with the exclusives that came with it. It's not an absolute requirement, it didn't affect my gameplay in any way, or ruin my enjoyment of that expansion.

Pesonally I wouldn't value any emote for $200+, and would see the emote as a perk to purchasing the statue, but I'm not going to judge anyone that spends their money based on whether they wanted the statue, the emote, or both. People are allowed to enjoy things with their disposable income, and they will judge whether something is worth their money or not.

Let people enjoy things.

For the quality of the figure and from what I've seen, 220 is a ridiculously high price, I've seen higher quality stuff for less than 80.

That said, people still bought, I wouldn't be surprised if the next figure was even more.

Idk, if someone wants to float around on the spot let them lol, it's not that deep

Yeah I got my figure a few days ago and it was overpriced. I still like it, and I bought it primarily for the actual figure because I really liked Omega/M/F in FFXIV and not just for the emote, but while I do like it it should have been cheaper. Probably won't be buying any more SE figures going forward.

I haven't spent a dime on this game's shop and probably never will. My wife does, either buying mounts or level 70 stuff. Doesn't bother me. Nor watching many items from my 1.0 experience being re-given out with very slight differences like my Goober mount. Let the kids enjoy sneezing on people too.

When the mog shop first came out, I'll admit I was slightly annoyed by it and had the popular mindset of everything should be achievable in game. I grew out of it though quickly. What does will this MMO mean to most people in a few years? Probably nothing. My FFXI character, among other game characters has a whole bunch of awesome stuff in their inventories. Doesn't mean a thing anymore because I don't play the games. The adventure of getting the items is what I remember and the mog shop doesn't effect that.

Keep seeing the world privilege thrown around a bit by the OP. That's kind of coming from privilege if you're complaining about items in an MMO if you ask me. At the end of the day it's just a game.

Plays a subscription based game. Has access to a forum to moan about not having a cosmetic item. ... Thinks Genshin Impact can't be played F2P.

Do you even know what privilege means? lol. Good bait threat tho I guess. It's an MMORPG. Some people will have stuff other people don't. I DO think they should put more cool stuff accessible via game-play and less monetization but eh, that's just my opinion. I'll pay for something if it enhances my experience of the game. I'm just that kinda' guy.

[Silverrr]

then I hope you also complained about the Saint titles because those will never be obtainable again either and only people no lifing during the rankings could get them

The emote is free, my friend.
It's a bonus for a cool figure.
