We need a xiv token

[BunnyBrat]

Give it to me. I never have enough.

Nah
WoW token was a mistake, you should never open those floodgates to being able to just straight up buy ingame currency.

The average player who's not playing 20hrs/day and doesn't come up with nolife video game gold making schemes doesn't even have 10% of that.

Nobody even has that amount because there's no point to getting gil to begin with.

XKCD stay winning, my god...

THANKYOU!
I was trying to think of a good way to put that and you nailed it. XD

Having a FFXIV sub token would indeed work AND it will kill off much of the bot spam. (It did in WoW)
Time poor players with lots of IRL cash can score gil legit.
IRL Cash poor players can score in game time.

Best of both worlds and it costs SE nothing but dev time to implement as every token is still paid for by someone using real cash, Hell, in WoW Tokens case it costs a little more than a normal sub to buy so in reality it was more of a capital boost than people buying their normal sub and didnt utilize the discounts for buying multiple months at reduced rates as happens with the Subs.
