People ask this these things and quotes is 7 years old. Your point being things they said 7 years ago can't change?

Oh, just to add, could have made them "Replica White Raven earrings" instead.

Virtually everyone would have been fine with that.

Q: Will there be any maintenance fees or other costs for housing, besides the cost of the land and house?
A: In older MMOs, such as Ultima Online, there was a house maintenance fee you had to pay weekly, but in FFXIV: ARR we decided against this system. Similarly, these older MMOs also had a system where your house would break down if you didn’t log in after a while in order to have you continue your subscription, but this is a thing of the past and we won't have any system like that.

That's generally why they are called exclusive. Also that none of them are to be trusted for anything they say. This stuff was literally bait to keep people subscribed back then.

All this is doing is fueling envy for everything else because they can't keep their word. It has nothing to do with whatever twisted version of entitlement someone wants to use. These things were stated they were never coming back.

This many years wasn't enough of an indicator of what fell under that?

True enough.

Please SE rename it so that the drama ends.

I just wanted to throw my 2 Gil in here by saying that I agree, the White Ravens and Manderville Earrings should have been plain, level 1 Replica glamour items. Not literally the same items from 1.0.

Certainly enough to assume, but if they didn't specifically say the White Raven earrings will never be available again, particularly while there are other items that are still exclusive to legacy players, then they are not breaking any promises by making that item available again eventually.

You can be disappointed that they're being made available, but you can't say they promised to never do it. (Or certainly can't say that quote proves they promised to never do it.)

And I still think it's possible that the Stormblood items are the cheap giveaways, and they might make us work harder for the earrings.

I wouldn’t expect this—the event is a level 15 event. At most, we’re looking at a FATE or Minigame for that low of a level; not something challenging or that would require any sort of serious effort.
