    New Mogstore "Supply kit" good will or desperation?

    I've never seen a "Supply kit" on the store and it actually looked this good, not returning to the game good but account wide fantasia+emote for that price is unheard of.

    Fallguys + this? Scrambling for sure. If they were "desperate" we'd see them actually reference criticisms more on the open.
    This package could simply just be an easy hook for fast money. Alà "doesnt look expensive, downright fair" but enough purchases will make up for it and funnel funds to FFIX remake, mobile games, nft and anything that isnt FFXIV.

    Doubt it. They usually decide things 8 months in advance or more, which is why a lot of feedback doesn't get incorporated for a whole expansion (2.5 years currently).

    Something to keep in mind is that companies usually have "oh shit" sales waiting in the wings. This isn't to say that they're "desperate" per se, but my guess is they're probably not hitting internal quarterly goals. At my old job, we would always have sales which had popular/requested items that were always rare specifically so we could put them in packs to sell to hit goal.

    I don't have a problem with this, personally.

    It's pretty obvious that this 'bundle' will, by design, be far more appealing to newer players and the earring in particular would be of a huge benefit to them.

    This looks like something that should be in free to play game not a game you have to buy and then pay monthly

    Yet we have had the same price sub for the past 10 years. So what's the issue if things like this keep costs down for us?

    Tbf, it's not like a price increase would be warranted. They charge you for the newest expansion and they reuse a lot of the older assets. I wouldn't pay more for a sub than what I am paying now.

    LMAO sure dude cause overheads have not gone up in that last 10 years which is the same for majority of games out there. As for the earring a large amount of the playerbase don't even use it anymore, as they have all their classes at 100 and unless SE does a level roll back they never will.

    Has WoW ever raised their sub prices?
