With all due respect. Hope you dont get offended. I want to be respectful like we should as a community of ffxiv. But ads would really help boost ffxiv to new heights. Imagine the revenue.
They could hire more devs and pr

Lets be real folks game development isn't cheap. The proposal is real, and it would be good because we would get more content, faster updates, and bigger experiences.

But to make that happen, the staff needs more money, motivation, and resources. No one likes waiting ages for new patches, right? This new approach means less waiting and way more awesome stuff coming your way.

And here's the exciting part: this also opens the door for huge collaborations with famous brands and insane crossovers.

Imagine your favorite franchises making an appearance in Eorzea!

To make all this possible, i got already the idea and proposal for the new premium subscription model.

Yes, the prices are going up, but so are the benefits!

Yeah, it’s a big change, but we truly believe this is the next step in making FINAL FANTASY XIV bigger and better than ever.

The problem about this is the price hike. You wanba ease into this. Ok so imagine this.

7.99 - base game / sub / expansion

14.99 - base game / sub / expansion / additional character slot / 1 retainer slot

29.99 - base game / sub / expansion / exclusive housing furniture monthly / 1 character slot / 1 retainer slot

60.00 - base game / sub / expansion / exclusive housing furniture / 1 exclusive account bound outfit m & f / 2 additional character slots / 2 retainer slots / bonus gil and exp

Final tier for 99.99 base game/ sub / collectors edition code / expansion / account bound mount / monthly outfit m& f / housing furniture / 3 additional character slots / 3 additional retainer slots / 4 additional kuppo nuts / bonus gil and exp x2 / 1 adfitional apartment on account (account bound) / each month 1 exclusive weapon camo for class that are voted by community.

You have to give a better reason and incentive for boosting subs and keep the price realistic raising it the way you did would kill the game off. Gotta ease into it entice the rewards not release slop.
