Cash Shop Items for FFXIV possible future update?

[Aluxes]

Nope, i prefer an implicit force upon subscription. Just like how F2P games sucked our money with low probability gachas, but instead of it, we force free players to subscribe moar A_A

Need to work about that, tho ('~`; )

i prefer subscription with the option of cash shop - making it Free to play will doom this game with more unwanted RMT
i dont see it ruining the game if its only for costumes and pets as long as it doesnt sell items that make players OP like STR%-VIT% cards buffs players for 30 days with extra exp

Actually, Cash shop is the main problem why RMT is common in F2P games. Why? Because people who don't have real-life money will invest their time in accumulating gold to buy cash shops. Also, several retards who cant grasp the concept of trading will likely sell cash shop items using their real life money for a freaking gil in a cyber world, thus, promotes the cycle that we knows as RMT.

I'm sure he has his reasons that others have already said before that don't need to be reinstated.

most of them didnt state good reasons they are only afraid of cash shop items that boost ur character and FFXIV becoming F2P which i dont see a reason for cash shop to exist with subscription no one will force them to buy from cash shop items

We don't really need "good reasons". You either want it or you don't. Aside from buying a collectors edition or something similar, if i cant earn it in game then i don't support having it available for real money.

Exactly but since I was called out by Mizu my reasoning is that cash shops are just a way for lazy companies to make a quick buck with content that is either useless or gives players an unfair advantage.
It first starts out as a costume or a hat with pathetic stats that just looks cool but later on it is buying gear that is on par to some of the game's best drops.
At the end of the day FFXIV does not need a cash shop you pay to play. The only place a cash shop should be is in a F2P MMO's where they need to make money back from having no subscription fee (which again I do not want). I should be able to get ALL the items since I pay to play this game. Why pay twice? So again I retort: Do not want... ever /end

Even Cash Shopping for Vanity Items would be bad not for the game itself, but for other people around that will see you where this shiny new red Cloak, and everyone else would want it. ( Yes Even fashion that isn't possible in the game to get, and only bought through a Cash Shop makes people jealous that some people may even leave the game cuz of it).

Keep everything in-game.. keep everything fair, You pay for a subscription for a reason, not to dull out more cash.

Only "Cash Shops" I don't mind ( Which aren't really cash shops to me) are Race change/World Transfers. Because they don't affect the game ( At all), Vanity items ( Visually) effect the game. Keep it fair and everyone will be happy ^.^.

Keep "all" items in-game only, Cash shops just cries out disaster and like every one on these forums said, they would most likely leave the game if they put a cash shop up.
