Another Eastern Mogstation Glam?

Does anybody know about the Oracle set? I saw a image with it on along with another armour.

I was suprised it did not show in the the shop. I thought the new outfit might have been a Summer event reward.

I kinda do not care for glamour you can simply buy.

I wanna earn it so it is something special.

Araxes I agree but sadly it does not do that anymore

I know it gets plenty of advertisement. Heck I see it on most webpages anymore if I'm being honest. I know stuff like that costs money as well but I do feel like they don't keep most of the profit the game brings in where the parent company makes other games and as of late a lot of them have not been doing well or raking in what they thought they would for how much they put into them.

To play devil's advocate, most (successful) companies operate with the expectation that their products will generate sufficient revenue and thus (hopefully) profit to fund other projects, as well as entice shareholders to invest in them. But the caveat to that is that the quality needs to be at a level acceptable to consumers and there's only so much the story can carry SHB.

They say their major constraint is labour rather than money-related, but I'm not really 100% convinced on that one. It may make sense with regard to very niche skillsets, where it is genuinely very hard to source the skills they need in Japan (I believe the one they keep mentioning is MMO raid combat design), but not everything they're struggling with is niche. My guess is it's down to how much SE's senior management is willing to allow the game to retain at any given point and I think SHB has proven to them the game deserves more funding, hence all these projects Yoshi has spoken of to ensure it remains competitive for its projected lifespan. Certainly, the tone was a lot more upbeat during this Fanfest and the game's future prospects.

They probably keep making them because I keep buying them. I raise my hand as the culprit.
