6 more days. The anticipation is killing me.

The video is unavailable.

Also, I quit playing the game due to the very high price of the sub. I think they'd have a fairly larger amount of people playing in it if they'd accept payments in the in-game currency, like WoW does. $42 every three months is just too much for people who live in Latin America (heck, that, in my local currency, is enough to buy two weeks' worth of food. Nooooooooooo thank you!)

Once I realized that every 3.33 months I was spending the same amount as a brand new game, and that the drip-fed patches did not equate to a whole new game's worth of content, I unsubbed as well.
Not to mention the abuse of a cash shop in a subbed game...

I just wait for the Free Log-in Campaigns. They occur several times a year, and the four or so free days I get is more than enough time to catch up on MSQ content built up.

Except for the skip potions, all of the items on the Mogstation are either from past seasonal events, real world events or the Korean version of the game that has a completely different business model. These items are made by a completely different team and were specifically demanded by the community to be made available to the rest of the territories which they are about 8-9 months after they debut in the Korean version.

And I happily pay my sub when it means not being nickel and dime'd with pay-to-win microtransactions.

Looks like the video we originally embedded in the article was taken down by Square Enix at some point and reuploaded. We've embedded the reuploaded video into the article.
