Sell Fantasia on the Mogstation

[Hazanko]

And so the cash shop begins...

For real! Sad day for SE. :c

We've checked again with the team on selling Fantasia, and have confirmed that this item will be available for purchase at a later date. We don't have anymore information as to when it will be available however but we will be sure to update you as soon as we know.

Appreciate that something was said after 3 months, but this is still too vague. Later date? March? July? 2015? Yeah, it's not something to get hopeful over.

so you are confirming it as a microtransaction now though...

This was a highly requested feature from the playerbase, not some evil plan SE cooked up from the start. People said they were willing to pay to change their character's appearance, and SE will (eventually) deliver.

No one said pay with what. GC seals, gil, whatever... They really want to get gil OUT of the economy for some reason and I won't speculate why here, though I have my own thinking on this. This would be an excellent way (as the salon has been--how many times have YOU used it?) to do so.

The thread is titled "Please sell Fantasia on the Mogstation". I hate to point out that it was incredibly obvious that people are willing to fork out cash for this optional service, but it was obvious. Did you think they would make you log into the Mogstation to spend in game currencies? Lol.

I was thinking something like this the other day. SE said they plan to "sell fantasia" but their post didn't specify where, so knowing SE, they'll could easily do it like housing and put it in game for 8 mil. Sure they posted it in this topic about mogstation but again, their post mentioned nothing of it except they plan to sell it.

Later date. When it's finalized we will know. It's as simple as that because people complain when a company doesn't make a date they set or push a date back.

Relax people, I HIGHLY doubt Square would sell actual in-game armor for money -_- you are causing drama over nothing, please stop.

The Mogstation purchasable items will most likely be cosmetics and character services (fantasia, name change, server transfer)

also, thanks Hvinire for the update, really appreciate it.. would love to see this implemented soon

They did with FFXI, so they have precedence - It just wasn't direct.

Looks like I'm stuck looking bad for an indefinite amount of time. This is very disappointing to hear. I had hoped we'd see Fantasia available tomorrow. I shouldn't have gotten my hopes up.

It really sucks having to play a character that I don't like the look of.

You can thank the people who bought DLC and made F2P/B2W the most lucrative sources of income.
