f2p is a bane to FFXIV

F2P will kill all interest in the game ... Say goodbye to timely updates and but fixes. they said they will never go f2p and thank goodness. f2p is a bane to games. yes you may expand the playerbase, but it will be a significantly less commited playerbase. 12 dollars a month isnt the worst sub in the world and not a bank breaker. if it is, Cheap FFXIV Gil gaming probably shouldnt be a priority. p2p leads to a more commited dev team and a steady flow of income they can rely on to do patches, expansions, etc. f2p does not have that luxury.  I love this game, but didn't the rewards of this year's events and the length of time to complete, besides the yokai watch event, seem kind of slim and short ?

Congratz to the winners. Hope that Aion NA has been more attentive than Aion EU about the legitimity of the winners' designs. The EU winner has stolen different parts of a Chinese designer's wings to create them design.can u specifically say which ones were "lazy" that elevated?  I could see some "really" nice wings designs and FFXIV Gil in my opinion much better than some of the winning too. I would spend real money on the Ereshikgal for sure and some others that did not win, pity!  i agree with you on this....

 I like the male coat in the picture at least :0 its nice see you put effort on male clothes too (not like some halloween clothes cof cof witch cof cof no pants cof cof) <3 love you SE.  I find the lack of Roe's in this picture rather disturbing, Square Enix.... What about au ra?  It needs more Miqo'te :( 1 is not enough. "A giant pile of pristine white snow. Yellow coloring optional."

i love the flavor text in this game  Love these holiday events. This year's outfit is beautiful. SE getting stingy... used to be a set of clothes... now only one piece... same as recent Halloween ... Can we get maybe a full outfit from events? Instead of just one clothing item.  They did that Halloween the two years before this one. they did a full outfit with last years halloween as well. i do agree the lack of full outfits this year is a bit disappointing. even partial outfits would be acceptable, say boots and the robe.
