In my country (New Zealand) FFXV packs cost more than $99 USD ea after tax (and after the first two packs purchased as 1st time buyers will see). Despite that, I have purchased packs at my own free will through my app store (not with Amazon coins or through a loader but the actual application store) with no regret.

I've been playing this game since July 2017

I first downloaded the game because of an interactive pop up/advert. Anyway, what was advertised was actually nothing but a mini game that can be played within the full game..if that makes sense. So that in itself was misleading/false advertising. I obviously didn't care because I still found it interesting and the rest is history.

But here's the thing... little did I know that developers/administrators were playing too. Influencing genuine/paying players to purchase packs, zeroing players because they can and last but definitely not least, levelling up and receiving items for FREE. That's when I stopped paying to play.

I understand that MZ is a business and the game didn't create itself. I do however believe it should be exposed for what it is (a scam), be changed from R13 to at least R18 based on some of the unfiltered in game chat content and of course the expense.

There is so much more I would like to say about this game but I will leave on a positive note... Thank you MZ for teaching me what to avoid in future online choices x
